Bomb Exploded at Boston Marathon Finish Line

[Amnorix]

I've heard an unconfirmed report (a co-worker's girlfriend called him) that there was a bomb at the finish line of the Boston Marathon, with people injured. I am hearing multiple sirens, though I'm not in the Copley area.

Crucifixion would be OK.
I'm sure Fox would televise it.

Here is the thread for him: http://www.reddit.com/r/findbostonbo...blue_robe_guy/

On second thought, I don't think it was him. He's too far away from the blast area in several other photos right before the blast.

My sister's bf is a defense attorney. Someone has to do it, but that doesn't mean they have to try their hardest. When your client did it, you take what you can get and this guy will get death at the very least.

If the guy did it, he should strongly consider a plea bargain to get the death penalty.

One thing I noticed looking at these photos:

The 3 saudi guys (red) and 2 other guys (blue) a few feet away from them all dissappear from the photos just before the blast. And there is a really odd looking guy in a white sweatshirt (yellow) in those pictures that is walking away from the blast area in most of the pictures. You can see him before and after the blast. He just really stands out.

Here's what the current Iranian Ayatollah RockNRolla had to say today:
(BTW: I think we should drop bacon all over their country)

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran's top leader on Wednesday condemned the twin bombing attacks in Boston, yet chided the U.S. for employing a double standard when it comes to drone attacks that kill innocent civilians.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran, which follows the logic of Islam, is opposed to any bombings and killings of innocent people no matter if it is in Boston, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq or Syria and condemns it," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told Iranian military leaders he was addressing in Tehran.

Khamenei criticized the U.S. for killing people with drones in Pakistan and Afghanistan and backing forces that kill others in Iraq and Syria.

"What kind of logic is this that if children and women are killed by Americans in Afghanistan and Pakistan and by U.S.-backed terrorists in Iraq and Syria is not a problem, but if a bombing happens in the U.S. or another Western country, the whole world should pay the cost?" he asked in his comments, which were posted on his website.

Iran is the chief regional ally of Syrian President Bashar Assad and is considered close to Iraq's Shiite Muslim-dominated government.

Khamenei charged that such double standards would lead to the demise of Western civilization.

"Western civilization is on the verge of collapse and downfall because of contradictions, lack of logic, coercions and lack of care for human principles," he said.

Agro Iran. Argo.

Video shows a young man dropping a bag at the first explosion area and the second.


I hope this isn't media bullshit.

Crazy, CNN says an arrest has been made, but NBC says a face has been identified but they don't know who he is and know arrest has been made.

Both stations doing Live reports right now that are countering one another. Crazy.

Sources: Arrest made in Boston bombing

First on CNN: Investigators believe a suspect has been identified in Boston Marathon bombings, source says Breakthrough came from analysis of video from a department store near a blast site, source...

[Amnorix]

USA Today said an arrest was "imminent", that CNN was reporting an arrest had been made, but that they couldn't confirm it.

My concern is that they can ID a suspect via the video, but knowing who he is and where he went would be difficult. Very easy to hop on a bus or train and get out of town and then disappear, in my estimation.

He forgot to mention Israel.

They have identified a suspect, and an arrest is imminent.

Yea, That was a report from the AP. Brain Williams just read that on NBC and then said we are just not comfortable reporting that yet cause our sources aren't confirming that.
