Boston Bomb Suspects From Russia region near Chechnya; One Suspect Dead

[ClydeCoulter]

CNN: "This is an incredible show of police force". I wonder if she's going to get off right on TV.

 

[ClydeCoulter]

Poor Uncle, getting hammered by media.

 

[Uriah]

I thought they were from Dagestan not Chechnya.

This can hardly be considered blow back. Chechnya is one region/conflict that surprisingly the US has not been involved with. We are definitely notpro russian by any means so how this attack can be linked with supposed blow back is ridiculous. What does a marathon in Boston has to do with an armed struggle in the Northern caucus is beyond me.

 

[KingNothing]

Yes.

But it won't matter, because when it is released the conspiracy people will pretend it was fabricated with CGI.

THERE ARE JUST SO MANY INCONSISTENCIES! FOLLOW THE MONEY! YOU BELIEVE THE GOVERNMENT IF YOU WANT, BUT I'LL BELIEVE MY OWN EYES!

Agreed. This is quite odd to me

So here's how it's shaping up, it seems.

Two brothers, one a seemingly conservative, observant, but flashy Muslim with no American friends (because we're godless heathens)...trained in martial arts/boxing (and apparently, bomb-making). That one's dead because he rushed the police with another pressure cooker bomb during the shootout. Some reports say they were hurling explosives, others say they were shooting with Tamerlan making the final rush on the police.

Then the younger brother in a black Mercedes SUV plows through the crowd of police firing at him and (at least temporarily) escapes. We know nothing about him. But police think he's rigged with explosives.

The girlfriend of the older brother was SWAT raided and dragged kicking and screaming out of her apartment, which she shared with her boyfriend?

They're from Chechnya, but have been in the US since the older brother was four (I'd assume that the younger was born here then?) But then the uncle says they've been here for about a decade and that they're "losers." We haven't heard anything from the parents, but have heard from the uncle.

Anyways, I don't know what to make of any of this. But the narrative seems to be headed toward a version of "they hate us for our freedom/loose morals."

 

[The Gold Standard]

Yes.

But it won't matter, because when it is released the conspiracy people will pretend it was fabricated with CGI.

Yes, what nutjobs. It is much more logical to defend video that doesn't exist.

 

[The Gold Standard]

I assume you have evidence for those statements you made?

I was asking questions. You have the answers, so show me your evidence.

What? Nothing about blow-back?

Must be a conspiracy.....

Ironic: Boston Islamic terrorist carjacks someone with a 'Coexist' bumper sticker

Right. The standard for a conspiracy theorist is different, I forgot. Only one side needs evidence, the other just needs "questions." The goal posts are quite different. Non-conspiracy theorists should start holding them to the same ridiculous standard of proof, that they themselves set, for government involvement.

LRC have some good posts pointing out how silly the events are;

WARNING: NOT JAY CARNEY APPROVED

Becky, the TV news is reporting that: 1) the bombing suspects stopped at an ATM to get cash; and 2) they robbed a convenience store for cash. Ummm, if they already have cash, and enough to build bombs, go to school as reported, buy expensive knapsacks and "Bridgestone Golf" caps, etc., why risk robbing a convenience store in a heavily populated area where it is known that all convenience stores have cameras? The FBI psycho-analysts on FAUX News will probably tell us that it was a suicide attempt -- they wanted to get caught.

Who needs evidence when you are told what happened by your owners, right?

They didn't rob the 7-11 for cash, they attempted to steal a car in the parking lot.

Who needs evidence when Alex Jones says it, right?

I don't know what the heck this is! I can't reach into the darkest recesses of my tinfoil imagination to find the "blowback" unless it's blowback for a marathoner who bullied him when he was a kid.

LATIMES attacking non-approved Jay Carney sources:

 

[Uriah]

There is something wrong with all of this.

 

[JK/SEA]

yeah, no way this could be political. Probably turn out they were pissed about not getting their way at burger king.
