Explosion at Boston Marathon II

Did the FBI request a FISA warrant on this guy?

We should have know that the potential Islamist terrorist was poking around the Inspire magazine website looking at bomb recipes.

 

In the 60's American radicals learned how to make bombs from Abbie Hoffman's book so really not much has changed except the radicals nationality.

 

Do you think the FBI memorizes what everybody it has on file looks like or that it can crosscheck a blurry image with every photo in its database in an instant?

 

What's the over-under on the number of times Boom mentions Abbie Hoffman on this thread as if he's somehow relevant to what happened?

 

Also, I find it interesting that conservatives on this thread latch on to a ONE Associated Press story to condemn the entire mainstream media despite the fact that virtually everyone else other than AP was saying their religious views were radical Islam. Even the AP story mentioned the word Islam or Islamic nine times. I think it was a matter of poor wording, esp. when you read the last two paragraphs.

I think the writer was trying to differentiate that while they were influenced by radical Islam, it wasn't clear whether they saw themselves as Sunni, Shiite or some other form of Islamic beliefs picked up more from watching Internet videos than from anything else. I don't think the writer intended to ever portray their religious views as anything other than Islam, esp. since no other religion was mentioned in the story. Maybe you should read the whole story instead of jumping to conclusions about the media trying to hide something.

 

I think it's very relevant when it's suggested that learning how to make bombs is a new phenomenon of the internet.

 

THEY CAN ON CSI!

 

Hey guys, a state rep in New Hampshire has it all figured out!

The FBI's biometric system must have been on the blink:

Home • About Us • CJIS • Fingerprints & Other Biometrics

Biometrics are the measurable biological (anatomical and physiological) or behavioral characteristics used for identification of an individual. Fingerprints are a common biometric modality, but others include things like DNA, irises, voice patterns, palmprints, and facial patterns.

Over the years, biometrics has been incredibly useful to the FBI and its partners in the law enforcement and intelligence communities—not only to authenticate an individual’s identity (you are who are say you are), but more importantly, to figure out who someone is (by a fingerprint left on a murder weapon or a bomb, for example), typically by scanning a database of records for a match.

The FBI has long been a leader in biometrics. We’ve used various forms of biometric identification since our earliest days, including assuming responsibility for managing the national fingerprint collection in 1924. More recently, the Bureau’s Science and Technology Branch created the Biometric Center of Excellence (BCOE) to strengthen our ability to combat crime and terrorism with state-of-the-art biometrics technology. In addition to the BCOE, our Criminal Justice Services Division—with its vast repositories of fingerprints and biographical data—is the FBI’s natural focus for identity management activities. However, important additional biometrics-related work is being undertaken by the FBI Laboratory, such as DNA activities, while voice and face recognition initiatives are being pursued in our Operational Technology Division.

 

The new phenomenon is how easy the Internet makes access to the information. There have always been ways to get it. I don't think anyone every suggested it was never disseminated before.

 

You guys are all chumps. Let's hear what a real expert -- a one-time SJ legend -- has to say.
