Doesnt really sound like professionals but I havent watched the news since so maybe they have updated more. I just figured an organized group would have had some big shit.
the (failed) terroist attacks in 2007 in london and glasgow used propane bottles and petrol. i think they know that trying to buy fertiliser, amonia etc for traditional bombs raises too many red flags nowadays with the intelligence services. i reckon they're desperate to pull something off in the UK/US and have the manpower to do it, but struggle to get hold of the nessarcary materials without raising suspicion and are resorting to what we're seeing now.
