NBC: Officials say backpacks, explosives used in 7/21 attacks identical to those of July 7 bombersBy Evan Kohlmann
"...NBC News has learned that British authorities told their U.S. counterparts that the backpacks used in Thursday's planned attacks [in London] and the explosives found in the backpacks are identical to those used in the July 7 attacks — evidence that strongly suggests the two sets of attacks were connected... The police are not sure if these bombers were ever in contact with those who carried out the July 7 attack but believe that they are part of the same cell and that the attacks failed because the detonators failed."
