Daylight Saving Time Mistake May Have Caused Dublin Car Bomber to Blow Himself Up

by Breitbart News     2 Apr 2014, 7:23 AM PDT

April 1 (UPI) -- A mix-up with daylight saving time may have caused a car bomb to blow up in the face of a bumbling bomber in Dublin.
 The unidentified bomber was seen fleeing from the wreckage of a ruined Volvo SUV on Sunday evening, while “dripping in blood” after the device that was attached to the vehicle went off early.
 
Clocks in Ireland were turned ahead on Sunday night.
 
“It would appear that the bomber got his timings wrong. It could be a case where he didn’t put his watch forward on Sunday [at 1am] and the timer went off too soon,” theDaily Mirror reported.

If he lives, I bet he'll be on time from now on.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948
