IS THE AMTRAK TRAIN DERAILMENT AN INCIDENT OF JIHADIST TERRORISM?

Revisit that thread on what appeared to be a bullet hole in the glass....related? If I were a conductor and experienced a bullet passing through the window near me, the threat of shots reaching passengers might encourage me to get the hell out of dodge ...FAST.

Did a Projectile have anything to do with Amtrak Crash?

There is this theory out there that the Amtrak train had bullet holes in the glass at the front of the train where the Engineer sits.

I gave no credence to the bullet hole theory, because I thought,

"Well, why would the Engineer refuse to talk to the Police IF HE WAS SHOT AT?"

But maybe the answer is obvious: The authorities were bound and determined to NOT call this an incident of Jihadist Terror.

VladTepes: Did a Projectile have anything to do with Amtrak Crash?


Derailment and Crash of Amtrak Train from Washington to NYC, passing through Port Richmond in NE Philadelphia
The media is discussing possible causes to the crash. However, one possibility mentioned but not being discussed at all in the media, is this:  Did a PROJECTILE that hit a SEPTA Philadelphia commuter train traveling northbound to Trenton, and busting the engineer’s window, about 15 minutes prior to the Amtrak derailment and only 3.5 miles away, crippling the train, have anything to do with the Amtrak derailment and crash?
Amtrak and Septa trains run parallel to one another from Philadelphia to Trenton (see figure 1).
Waiting to hear more from the blackbox report.
So far, nothing more from the media on this projectile.
So five minutes after the Septa train was hit, Amtrak derailed. It’s being reported that it was going over 100mph at derailment.

Know nothing about projectile, but passengers said they felt the train shaking before derailment, like if an emergency brake was being activated. Isn't it possible that the acceleration system was tampered with, and when the engineer was approaching the curve and tried to slow down the brakes did not work, or the acceleration could not be stopped regardless of brakes?

3 (THREE)trains suffered incidents in the same corridor, within minutes of each other. Coincidence? Let's wait and see what the final reports say ...

With a President not willing to call a thug a thug or an Islamic terrorist an Islamic terrorist, I would think that suppressing any attacks by the same to be SOP.. The disinformation crew is hard at work making up foo facts and pointing the finger at the engineer.. If his engine was hit just before the normal deceleration point and he was seeing the proverbial stars this would be a very valid reason for incoherent action.. Mistaking braking for accelerating would be easy since it is simply one lever on modern diesel electric trains.. The emergency or aggressive brakes on the bogies can be applied with a panic slap switch or a brake lever that will incrementally apply the air driven friction system.. I will give the guy the innocent till proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt by his peers right so easily dismissed by the mob mentality croud..
