Re: Boston Marathon Bombing
At this point, I'm always leery of Western countries dealings with terrorist situations. It'll be interesting to see if any military action comes from this event. Maybe Russia & The US taking over Chechnya and completely surrounding Iran?
There are a lot of questions about these two still unanswered. How did they get all the materials? Who bought all their guns & ammo? How was the younger brother climbing out of the boat down a ladder on his own, seemingly blood free...then suddenly to weak to fight, covered in blood & unable to speak before being rushed to an Israeli hospital? How could no one else know? Why did they say a third bomb had been diffused under the bleachers at the race and who put it there?
And there's no logical excuse about dogs not tracking the younger brother after the shootout when he ditched the car. There's dogs in every pic of the manhunt, yet they couldn't track a trail of blood .6 miles away to the guy hiding in a boat? Dogs catch clean, healthy, non bleeding criminals seemingly every other day in my town of Bend, OR...sometimes well after the crime has occurred. Yet, in Boston, with the eyes of the entire world upon them and all the resources they could want...not one dog can track a blood trail .6 miles away? Not one cop could follow the blood trail the next day, even though a reporter did the day after the boat guy was caught. Makes no sense.
I too find it a little hard to believe that they were the ONLY ones behind this. In a way it seems way too sophisticated for 2 people to pull off. However, in other ways, they certainly made plenty of mistakes that would show they weren't very well planned out. They could've been halfway across the country by Thursday if not out of the country completely, yet they were still in the Boston area. They bragged about the bombings and killing the cop to the guy they car-jacked and told him they were headed to New York. I read today their plans for New York were not to do any more damage, but to get their in time for last call so they could celebrate all that they had accomplished.
And as for the "one that got away". At the time he escaped the amount of police presence was far less than when they had every organization known to man looking for him the next day. It was one cop dealing with the matter and whatever backup he had called for. But it all happened fast, so it's a little more believable that he could've slipped through the cracks. Not to mention they were hurling bombs and explosives in the direction of the cops, so they were keeping a safe distance. As for why the dogs couldn't sniff him out the next day. I don't really have an answer for that one. I know he was just outside of the perimeter they were searching, but it does seem that they should have been able to find him sooner. AGAIN, I thought the guy had somehow escaped and skipped town but he was practically under their noses the whole time.
Anyway, here's a nice little tribute video.
Edit - They're now saying, their plan for that Thursday night was to head to NY and to continue their terror in Times Square. Apparently they weren't too concerned with not getting caught. And it showed.

Re: Boston Marathon Bombing
I talked to an FBI agent last night about the Boston Bombing. He used to work in New York and Boston area as well. He is a former Marine. He is in his mid 40's.
Here is what he told me.
There is a lot more that isn't out there. They are looking for who funded them, something about one being a student, the other on welfare. Said their supplies were probably around $2,000. Said that Fox News has some excellent sources. Agrees there is some big holes in the story. But did say, "the sources fox news has are by far the most accurate".
Just thought I would share.
