Explosion at Boston Marathon II

Ha. I only got halfway through his post before I was bored by it.

I didn't even get to the abortion doctor -- otherwise known as the guy who killed more people than were killed and/or maimed by Gabby Giffords shooter, the Aurora shooter, the Newtown shooter, and the Boston bombers combined.

 

Interesting, at least to me, are these two graphs from the second story linked. I'm sure this will elicit a strong response from Boom.

About a block away, he said, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev jumped out of the car and escaped on foot.

By that time, Officer Donohue had been shot in the groin, and the officers decided to give him medical aid and look after the handcuffed suspect rather than give chase.

 

Israel's unoffical Mossad site thinks the brothers could be Saudi double agents http://www.debka.com/article/22914/The-Tsarnaev-brothers-were-double-agents-who-decoyed-US-into-terror-trap

 

If only those brothers had grown up in orphanages.

 

Tsarnaev is reportedly responding sporadically:

Was wondering when Debka would check in on this...

 

Interesting points raised ...

The Tsarnaevs' recruitment by US intelligence as penetration agents against terrorist networks in southern Russia explains some otherwise baffling features of the event:

1. An elite American college in Cambridge admitted younger brother Dzhokhar and granted him a $2,500 scholarship, without subjecting him to the exceptionally stiff standard conditions of admission. This may be explained by his older brother Tamerlan demanding this privilege for his kid brother in part payment for recruitment.

2. When in 2011, a “foreign government” (Russian intelligence) asked the FBI to screen Tamerlan for suspected ties to Caucasian Wahhabist cells during a period in which they had begun pledging allegiance to al Qaeda, the agency, it was officially revealed, found nothing incriminating against him and let him go after a short interview. He was not placed under surveillance. Neither was there any attempt to hide the fact that he paid a long visit to Russia last year and on his return began promoting radical Islam on social media. Yet even after the Boston marathon bombings, when law enforcement agencies, heavily reinforced by federal and state personnel, desperately hunted the perpetrators, Tamerlan Tsarnaev was never mentioned as a possible suspect

3. Friday, four days after the twin explosions at the marathon finishing line, the FBI released footage of Suspect No. 1 in a black hat and Suspect No. 2 in a white hat walking briskly away from the crime scene, and appealed to the public to help the authorities identify the pair. We now know this was a charade. The authorities knew exactly who they were. Suddenly, during the police pursuit of their getaway car from the MIT campus on Friday, they were fully identified. The brother who was killed in the chase was named Tamerlan, aged 26, and the one who escaped, only to be hunted down Saturday night hiding in a boat, was 19-year old Dzhokhar.

 

Dzhokhar was enrolled at UMass-Dartmouth.

I don't know boo about Debka.
Does it just throw rumors around?

 

If these guys were Saudi double agents:

-- FBI never would've released the photos. If there's anything the FBI is good at, it's at covering its ass. See the Whitey Bulger case.

-- CIA would've stepped in.

-- President would have been much more muted.

I was looking at Twitter earlier and saw all of these loons saying this was a false flag operation, and it wasn't an insignificant portion of people tweeting.

 

UMass Dartmouth may be more selective now, but when I was in high school it was the ultimate safety school.

If you wanted to live away from home but couldn't afford much else, you went there.

And I can totally see why the FBI didn't pursue the Russian angle more aggressively. After 9/11, Putin tried to bring out the Chechnya card, repeatedly ... the Russians have overplayed it, they're like the boy who cried wolf.

 

It's also not in Cambridge.
