Where do they get their money?
The younger brother is said to be a pothead.
The people that were murdered had pot sprinkled all over them .
One of the murdered was also a MMA guy who apparently was very good and could have easily defended himself but they think he was caught off guard must have known his murderer. The older bomber suspect is the last one to see the murdered people alive.

$10K in assistance per year for a family of 4? Not sure how that gets you a Mercedes...

More to the story. On the other hand, I think the folks calling this a 'false flag operation' are seriously demented. Probably the same folks who said the Newtown/Sandy Hook massacre was staged and didn't really happen.

Boston Marathon bombings: New information suggests that suspects were headed to New York next | Mail Online

Thank you for posting this Heel n Toe, I had not read of this before.

Baz, that Fox News lady sure likes to incite fear, anger and hate, how can you watch that stuff? Not saying she is wrong about the content, just the manner and way it is presented and acted out is repugnant.

The victim, who is Chinese and his early 20s, was paralyzed with fear after bursting into the Mobil station where cashier Tarek Ahmed was working.

The terrified victim said: 'Some men are trying to shoot me. They have a bomb and guns.'
In an exclusive interview with Egyptian-born Ahmed, 44, said the victim was so scared he could barely stand and collapsed on the floor.

Witness: Mobil station cashier Tarek Ahmed was working when the terrified victim burst in after escaping his captors
Ahmed said that when the man went behind the counter to hide, he knew he was telling the truth.
Ahmed dialed 911 and within minutes the area was flooded with police.

There are good ones and bad ones.

Hey George -



You're right - these terrorists do create fear, anger, and hate...

I embrace Judge Jeanine's passion (although at the end she overdid the political part a bit).

WE NEED TO BE PISSED OFF AT THIS SITUATION!

[daepp]

Amen brother Baz!

[kach22i]

Jeanine's passion (grandiose style) reminds me a bit of Keith Olbermann's - opposite political spectrum's to be sure.

The asking of questions to get a rise, that wasn't supposed to be news reporting was it?

At least when Rachel Maddow asks a question she attempts to answer it, or have a guest answer it.

Three more arrests...

+1
I get pissed off enough on my own without some TV dingbat chiming in.

[ZOA NOM]

I thought JJ nailed it. Refreshing to hear some non-PC commentary on the issue, especially after all the pandering coverage of the "grieving" mother railing against the US. As for dingbats, I think the one that should wear that label is in the Hijab.

Now we'll see how far this thing goes. Your FBI will have them singing like canaries.

Homeland Security numbskull's at work:

The student visa for Azamat Tazhayakov had been terminated when he arrived in New York on Jan. 20. But the border agent in the airport did not have access to the information about it in the Homeland Security Department's Student and Exchange Visitor Information System.

A spokesman for the department, Peter Boogaard, said earlier this week that the government was working to fix the problem, which allowed Tazhayakov to be admitted into the country when he returned to the U.S.

[widgeon13]

They said they were going to fix this after 9/11. Guess it was overlooked. Oh, well.

[sc_rufctr]

WOW!

From CNN

Boston bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev participated in a 2011 triple homicide outside Boston along with a Chechen killed Wednesday
during a confrontation with the FBI and Massachusetts State Police in Orlando, Florida, a federal law enforcement official told CNN.


Ibragim Todashev not only confessed to his direct role in slashing the throats of three people in the killings in Waltham, Massachusetts,
he also fingered Tsarnaev in the deaths, the official says.

[VaSteve]

There was some suspicion of that. Interesting it finally comes out.

[Porsche-O-Phile]

I'm sure it goes even deeper than this. This is such an epic fail on the part of intelligence/law enforcement it's unbelievable. Even more unbelievable in a post-9/11 world.

The question I want answered is why do the "terrorists" do what they do? And no, the answer is not the Islamic religion.

That's the problem... "They" seem to conflict with each other and what they want and it varies from day to day.

The message used to be simple. The "West" shouldn't interfere in the affairs of Middle Eastern (Islamic) countries.
Sounds reasonable but generally the Governments if Islamic countries have a long history of butchering their own civilians.

So what should we do? Sit back and let them or do something about it? The answer isn't simple any more.

The way I see it is for instance if you have a neighbor that is acting strange is to befriend them and try to understand where they are at. If they don't let you into their lives then perhaps they are hiding something. Perhaps they are suffering from being alienated by the rest of the population and they don't have to be of Middle Eastern origin to feel that. If they let you into their lives and see how they are suffering perhaps you can help them. If we get new neighbors I ask them lots of questions. Perhaps they think I am nosy which I probably am but like to understand how these people function.

Actually yes it is, to a large extent.

One can't have a serious discussion about this problem while ignoring the 800-pound gorilla in the room.

The problem is Islam is exploited, twisted and interpreted by some to become a rationalization/justification mechanism.

Interesting. Just found out that my wife's best childhood friend is on the group assigned to defend this terrorist. She's actually visiting us this weekend. I'm sure it'll be interesting to see what she has to say, as she's actually been spending a lot of time with this young man over the past few weeks.
