Vand Zaandt: 'Loose Lips Aid Bombers'

MSNBC analyst and former FBI profiler Clint Van Zandt stated in an August 6, 2005 article on the Microsoft/NBC owned cable network's website that,

The BBC revealed that NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly did not have the permission of the London Metropolitan Police (the Met) to talk about sensitive information to hundreds of people, and in reality the world, concerning the construction of the bombs used in the London attacks. At a briefing in New York City this week, Kelly described, in detail, how the bombs deployed by suicide bombers--ones that killed 52 and wounded hundreds--were easily constructed from common household items. He also provided information concerning the need to keep such devices in a stable condition.
Mr. Van Zandt said, "British law enforcement officials were angered by Kellys unauthorized disclosure of their investigation on the 7/7 London bombing and the 7/21 attempted bombing of trains and double decker-buses." Here's more of his commentary on the issue.
