There's a HUGE story on all of this that is NOT being reported. fyi-"beforeitsthe news.com"

I'm with you Bill. Of course he will say he acted alone. That is why they should be treating him like an "enemy combative" instead of using our court system. I don't for a minute think these guys acted ALONE. The Saudi that was sent back is very suspicious. Something going on there however Americans don't demand answers. This is the Third TERRORIST attack since 9/11. When is enough enough??? These guys are hardcore Radical Muslims.

Least news up here in Massachusetts is that Suspects were on welfare/public assistance so we (the taxpayers) funded these acts of terror. Go figure.

..........

Oh forgot to mention that parents of Suspects who are now in Russia were on welfare/public assistance as well before returning to Russia.

I have a compelling question that I can't seem to find an appropriate explanation and that is this family came to the United States of American seeking politic asylum as they were facing persecution and accordingly allowed to immigrate to the USA...........so now what has change over in their Russian homeland that compels them to return to Russia? Just wondering?

A question which bothers me is how did they get their hands on "military grade explosives" as reported many times by the media. I haven't seen C-5 for sale at Home Depot or 7-11.

Yes I heard that from a reliable news source. She was shoplifting...and maybe that is the reason they went back "home".

And of course, that young bomber will have all of his medical expenses covered while the victims with missing limbs and other horrible injuries will have to worry about the medical bills.

It just isn't right.

Eric Rudolph is the terrorist who planted a bomb at the Atlanta Olympics which is a very parallel crime to this one. He subscribed to a religion which while in most adherents is a religion of peace and love but where there are also extreme sects which believe they have the true vision and inspire their followers to act against the wicked doctrines embodied in the US government. He was caught after a very long manhunt and several more bombings of innocent Americans. He was praised for his actions by several groups. When finally captured he was Mirandized and brought for trial in a open court giving him all the rights of a US citizen accused of a crime.

So yes an individual can be a lone wolf terrorist. Nothing these two did required any significant amount of money or frankly much skill, just willingness to act. The fact that they had no escape plan speaks volumes to the lack of insightful planning. Before everyone gets all conspiracy international support crazy, just wait and let the government finish its investigation. And while we mourn the loss of 4 lives in Boston due to the actions of these brothers, please also keep in your thoughts the 15 killed and 200 injured in West, Texas due to the actions of an American corporation which seemingly disregarded safety and ignored regulations which should have kept all those first responders and neighbors and workers safe. The bomb that went off in Texas was bigger, killed more and injured more than the one in Boston and it is lost in the news

Things may change, but I don't see anything at the moment to make me think it is part of a large scale plan.

We all know that Muslim extremists are taught we are infidels and that we need to die. Us..non Muslims.

I feel that there is more known maybe than what we know, and that is fine with me. I feel that the U.S. is doing everything in it's power to find out all of the details and to protect all of us and the world too.

I want to wish for some simple solution, like ...throw them all out, send them home etc, simply because I am very sad, very angry and frightened too. But I know it isn't that simple.

I think if we are patient, all of the truth will be uncovered. And hopefully justice will be served. We can worry, we can think, we can blame and we can speculate but we don't know.

And we don't need to make it any worse yet. God knows it is BAD ENOUGH and justice is screaming to be served.

That was a terrible tragedy that happened in Texas and those victims should be in our prayers; however, the Texas incident was an accident not an attack which explains why the Boston coverage has overshadowed Texas.

It's been reported they got them at a NH fireworks store. They interviewed an employee who identified them.

I believe that the story of the brothers robbing the 7-11 was incorrect. There apparently was a robbery but not by them.

Boston police: Marathon bombings suspect 'in custody' - CNN.com

Initially, authorities said the brothers started their rampage by robbing a convenience store. By late Friday, the Middlesex District Attorney's office backtracked on the allegation, saying an investigation determined that the robbery at a 7-Eleven was unrelated.

I have seen no reports of "military grade explosives" and everything I've seen says this:

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev charged with using ‘weapon of mass destruction’ - The Washington Post

Federal prosecutors announced terrorism charges against the surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing on Monday, outlining a chilling plot in which the man and his brother allegedly used low-grade but deadly explosives timed to detonate a block apart.

We see things differently. The bomb in Boston was intentional. The bomb in Texas was not an accident. An accident is when you are safely driving your car and a kid darts out between parked cars and you hit him. It is not an accident when that child is crossing at the cross walk and you fly through a stop sign and hit him. I know you didn't mean to do it but you are going to be charged with a criminal offense. Now, down from my soapbox.
