		Wall Street is the name of a narrow street in lower Manhattan running east from Broadway downhill to the East River.
		The name of the street derives from the fact that during the 17th century, it formed the northern boundary of the New Amsterdam settlement where the Dutch had constructed a crude wall of timber and earthwork in 1652.
		Wall Street's architecture is generally rooted in the Gilded Age, though there are also some art deco influences in the neighborhood.

		If the Iranian intelligence services were behind the bombing, as recent news reports allege, calls for retaliation against Iran are sure to be heard from the U.S. congress, where sympathies for the current Islamic regime have never been high.

		Indeed, the French bombed similar targets in 1983 in retaliation for an Iranian-backed truck bomb attack on French peacekeepers in Beirut that killed 58 French marines.

		Wallace knew that bombing the dams vertically was a complete waste of time, and the only possibility of success lay in placing a mine hard up against the dam wall at its base.
		Though it was obvious that the dam wall could not be destroyed by a single bomb from a single Lancaster bomber (it would weight far too much for the aircraft to get off the ground), Wallace pinned his hopes on the scientific fact that cumulative stress should do the job, and he was proved right.
		Though officially three of the bombs, each containing 6,500 pounds of TNT, were considered to be direct hits, one of these veered off slightly, meaning that the giant Mohne Dam was completely breached by a total of 13,000 pounds of tri-nitro toluene.
