syrakusos Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 In the absence of facts, opinions hold our interest."Someone knows who did this," said Rick DesLauriers, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Boston office. "Cooperation from the community will play a crucial role in this investigation.""There are a lot of things that are surrounding this that would give an indication that it may have been a domestic terrorist, but that just can't be assumed," Chambliss said.http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/15/us/boston-marathon-investigation/index.html 5 viral stories about Boston attacks that aren't true By Doug Gross, CNN updated 3:01 PM EDT, Tue April 16, 2013 | Filed under: Social Media Read hereBut not on that list is the story of the police actions and presence before the explosions, the heightened patrols, and the dogs.

Mark Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 An animated graph of drone attacks in Pakistan alone:www.drones.pitchinteractive.comproduced bywww.thebureauinvestigates.comLast week there was an "Obamadrone" attack in Afganistan which killed 12 children. A friend of mine in Boston – who had been 100 feet away from where the first bomb exploded and only five minutes before he and his girlfriend had gone to the Fairmount Copley Plaza Hotel behind the Public Library in order to use the bathroom! – tells me his first thought was that the Marathon attack might have been by a Moslem student in reaction to the drone attacks, that the one last week was the trigger. To go off on a tangent: If so, what is that Moslem doing studying here – for the most part at U.S. taxpayer expense – if he has good reason to hate the U.S. government and the stupid, ignorant Americans who cluelessly support it? The college/university administration who admitted him should be held partly responsible. Again, if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brant Gaede Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Let's hope . . .--so we can be racist toward whites even if we are whites. Collectively the Japanese are probably the most racist large group extant. Does this mean we should be racist toward Japanese or that non-racist Japanese should be racist toward other Japanese (a contradiction) because a collective label might fit a collective? Japanese guilt? Comparative "white guilt" is awfully weak, like I massacred Indians or lynched blacks in the South after enslaving them in the first place.--Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 The stuff coming from the Left you couldn't put in a satire, it's so far out.Some of them want a tax protester to be the perp. A crazed tax protester wouldn't kill IRS agents, no, he'd kill random taxpayers!Of course it would be best if a lone nut were the perp, whatever his motivation – possibility number 1 in my list of four in post #30. The other three possibilities entail more attacks. Trouble is, with the twisted logic of the Left a lone nut means the feds should crack down further on guns – even though no guns were involved! It's insane and the insanity is in your face. "How stupid do they think we are!" and they think we're imbeciles, with some justification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selene Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Folks:Remember the alleged "lone nut" who flew his small plane into the IRS building in Texas in 2010?The state media immediately claimed it was a tax protester and a "far" "right" "extremist."Anyone remember whether he was? The suicide note ended with:[32] “ I saw it written once that the definition of insanity is repeating the same process over and over and expecting the outcome to suddenly be different. I am finally ready to stop this insanity. Well, Mr. Big Brother IRS man, let’s try something different; take my pound of flesh and sleep well.

syrakusos Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Meanwhile... among the plethora of statements that must take the place of evidence...If your experience and your expertise is Middle East terrorism, it has the hallmarks of al Qaeda or a Middle East group," former FBI Assistant Director Tom Fuentes said. "If your experience is domestic groups and bombings that have occurred here, it has the hallmarks of a domestic terrorist like Eric Rudolph in the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics bombings." Fuentes said he has investigated both types of terrorism -- from Iraq to the United States -- and finds the Boston attack has elements of both. "It has the hallmarks of both domestic and international (attacks), and you can see either side of that."http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/17/us/boston-blasts/index.html?hpt=hp_t2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
