According to the bombing suspect in Italian custody his group who partially detonated backpack bombs on the 21st of July had nothing to do with the 7/7 bombers or a larger al-Qaeda operation.
ROME, Italy (CNN) -- The failed July 21 bombings in London were not linked to the lethal attacks of July 7 or al Qaeda, a bombing suspect in Italian custody has told his interrogators, according to Italian media reports.
Hussain Osman, who is also known as Hamdi Issac, said the four men who partially detonated backpack bombs before running from their targets on July 21 were not working with the July 7 bombers who killed themselves and 52 commuters while injuring hundreds more on three London Underground trains and a double-decker bus.
Osman also claimed the July 21 group was not working for al Qaeda, the Islamic terrorist organization behind the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on the United States, last year's Madrid train bombings and numerous atrocities worldwide.
Considering the types of bombs, the amateurish approach and their seemingly trouble free arrests it seems these bombers were inspired by the 7/7 bombs and the situation in Iraq as detailed by the bomber below;
ROME -- A suspect in the failed London transit bombings has admitted a role in the attack but said it was only intended to be an attention-grabbing strike, not a deadly one.
Osman Hussain is said to have told interrogators he wasn't carrying enough explosives even to "harm people nearby."
A daily newspaper in Rome reported Hussain told investigators that the plot was to "sow terror," not to kill and was motivated by anger about the U.S.-led war in Iraq.
Hussain -- one of four suspected bombers in the July 21 attacks -- was arrested Friday in Rome. His lawyer said he may fight extradition.

Uh, it was the same approach as the 7/7 bombings. Bombs, rucksacks, trains, splodeydopes. The only thing missing was the "Kaboom!".
But, we should immediately and unquestioningly believe anything that the attempted mass murderer says. He certainly wouldn't lie. Also, there is proof that what he says must be true. After all, al-Qaeda does not exist.
due to the lack of major explosives that a group like AQ would've provided!
You don't need al-Qaeda to make TATP, which was the explosive used in both cases. The first batch worked, the second didn't.
It really doeasn't matter either way. It's one war.
Holy cow, deranged octopus! That is just so funny!
al-Qaeda, btw, does not exist.
The funny thing is that all I was saying is that the attacks were entirely similar.
But they use their own mobile phones to call their bosses and they cant engineer attacks that US teenagers would have no trouble executing and they cant hide for more than a week in a country of 60 million people.
Yeah, they're just a bunch of losers. There's absolutely nothing to worry about. Nothing.
Fool. No one ever said they weren't stupid.
Why don't you explain it?
