Removed "a type of claymore" because a nailbomb is not a type of M18A1 Claymore Antipersonnel Mine.

Image

The ABC x-ray image from the bombs discovered at Luton after the July 2005 London bombings would go nicely here. It is apparently a leaked image from the enquiry and has been used by several news sources. Can we use it? Who would own copyright? The picture linked to has an AP tag on it.

Anticoagulant stuff

I am unable to trace down the claim that terrorists coat shrapnel in rat poison as a crude way of encouraging hemorrhage; moreover, the kind of anticoagulant found in rat poison does not cause immediate hemorrhage--rather, it impairs liver metabolism of Vitamin K and so over some time decreases the ability of the body to make a clot.

Therefore, I'm going to remove this bit.
