Jamayat-E-Islami (also rendered as Jamiat-e-Islami and Jamiati Islami; Persian: جمعیت اسلامی افغانستان; "Islamic Society"), sometimes shortened to Jamiat, is a Muslim political party in Afghanistan. The majority of the party, the oldest Muslim political party in Afghanistan, are ethnic Tajiks of northern and western Afghanistan. It has a communitarian ideology based on Islamic law. During the Soviet-Afghan War and the following Afghan Civil War against the communist government, Jamiat-e Islami was one of the most powerful of the mujahideen groups.

Sorry I didn’t realize how pertinent Jim Acosta’s desk size was to you. When we were discussing the handling of explosives .
I assume you referring to the pencil eraser verses steal frag ratio ?

If anyone can get a closer higher resolution image of the pipe bomb's symbol I would highly appreciate it. Maybe then we can translate the words and figure out exactly what that image in the middle of them is.
My best guesses are in my last few posts on Khorason and Jamiat.

A - release an image of the unexplored bomb during the investigation phase?
You know that it's been clearly stated that the package which was delivered to CNN was done so by "courier" and not the USPS, right?
* - Some of the packages were not sent by mail. The picture of the bomb package shows plenty of postage however the postage stamps themselves are not stamped by the Postal Service to invalidate the stamps after use.

Top congressional Democrats on Wednesday slammed President Trump's response to a series of suspicious packages sent to prominent Democratic officials, saying his "words ring hollow."
"Time and time again, the President has condoned physical violence and divided Americans with his words and his actions," Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (N.Y.) and House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) said in a joint statement.
The two Democratic leaders pointed to Trump's support for Rep. Greg Gianforte (R-Mont.), who pleaded guilty to assaulting a reporter, and accused the president of supporting "dictators around the world who murder their own citizens, and referring to the free press as the enemy of the people."
"President Trump's words ring hollow until he reverses his statements that condone acts of violence," Schumer and Pelosi said.
Their statement comes after Trump said that he condemned "political violence" and urged the country to unify after suspicious packages were mailed to a number of prominent Democratic officials, donors and to CNN, a network often targeted by Trump.
