Every time there’s a story in the news about a bomb threat it always turns out to be a hoax. Usually the intent from the perpetrator, it seems, is just to stir up a lot of commotion since the authorities will have to evacuate the building and conduct a thorough search of the premises. Not once I do I ever recall a bomb actually being found (not even a facsimile of a bomb). Has there ever been a case where a bomb threat called in by a perpetrator turned out to be real?
Think IRA.
