COMPARISON OF DAMAGED AREAS

One of these clubs was hit with a blast SO POWERFUL, surrounding roofs were torn off completely by the force, nearby concrete reduced to a fine powder, even stripping whole concrete floors down to its metal mesh insert rebar over 50 feet away!. Nothing left at floor level, houses 5 kilometers away suffering secondary damage. (cracked walls, shattered windows)

One other club was hit with an incendiary type blast that quickly spread throughout and burnt the whole club, charring and burning every possible combustible substance within the affected area. Nearby building having roof tiles taken off in the initial force of the blast yet structurally the roofs were not as badly affected as the other blast had done.

 

 

CAN YOU TELL FROM THIS PICTURE, WHICH ONE IS WHICH?

 

Lets' take a closer look at each of them:

1st Comparison: Paddy's Bar

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From the above picture of the Paddys Bar taken 2-3 weeks after the blast we can see an overhead view of the total devastation on the top floor of the club and we can also tell a few things:

1) The fire damage although absolute, was contained within the boundaries of the property, with very little damage leeching outside it.

2) This blast was VERY DIFFERENT to the one that vaporized the Sari club.

 

The fake palm trees in front of the premises were barely even affected by the blast and fire. How do we know these are fake palms and not real ones?

 

We have Robert S Finnegan photos to rely on as evidence. Very important exclusive photos taken the morning after from INSIDE the fire damaged club.

Even though EVERYTHING surrounding the fake trees have been scorched, charred and fire damaged, the fake plastic tree leaves appear unaffected. In fact the far side of the bar seems barely burnt at all. We can clearly see a wall plaque and some smoke damage evident on the roof above. Yet little actual fire damage across the farside bar area.

 

In the foreground we can see 44 gallon drum columns badly scorched and roof support beams scattered randomly now reduced to charcoal.

The top floor fake palms did not to as well as the ground floor ones.

 

 

 

In the above small image, we can see they are certainly no longer green, however IF THEY ARE PLASTIC they must be a new kind of asbestos fire-resistant plastic because they are clearly still very much intact despite the surrounding fire damage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inside Paddy's Bar the actual blast crater on ground floor was also snapped by Robert S Finnegan in THIS VERY RARE image never published before now ...

The origins of the blast crater pictured above differ vastly from all differing accounts given of the origin of what made the blast. Some reports speculate on a suicide bomber, some say a plastic bag thrown from a vehicle, some say it was a bag left by a terrorist. Some say a backpack some say a travel bag, NONE of these versions can be concretely substantiated nor verified, all we are left with is this image to say there was even ANY blast at all from the explosive device used in Paddys bar.

Interestingly we can also see in front of the club a circle of "dead leaves" on the live trees planted directly on Jalan Legian surrounding the Paddys Bar area.

 

 

 

 

 

 

What exactly caused these leaves to die? The blast radius? The heat from the fires 2-3 weeks earlier? Perhaps some kind of poison from the toxic smoke? All we can do so many years after this event is speculate at all the anomalies surrounding this terrible tragic attack.

However horrible the images, just stop for just one moment and ask yourself if the crater in the above image can do ALL the carnage seen in this picture below.
