    There were two bombers.
    That said, it is this picture that grabs the most attention for me.

    I'm not sure what about that suggests "secret police/military equipment".

    Clearly the question we should be asking ourselves is "did they smile?"

    Because, as we all know, anybody who ever smiled is 100% incapable of committing a terrorist act. Or anybody caught yawning. Or speaking to someone else. Whatever the case may be.

    My guess is if they are not involved I'm sure there will be an explanation of what they were doing there. Conspiracy theorist will then follow up with a government cover up.

    I'm sorry. If it was heavy I wouldn't hold it like that. I would hold the handle with my fingers wrap around it with a straight arms downward. You would only hold it like a pulse if it's not heavy and the bag handle is not even stretching to suggest it's heavy. Just because I guy holding it down awkwardly instead of having it on her back doesn't mean he's hiding something. Might be more to the courtesy for not having on his back and smacking the crowd with the knapsack.

    CBS says first suspect had a white baseball cap on backwards, was seen dropping a backpack and walking away as first bomb exploded. Said he was on his cell phone at the time, and they figured out his name.

    Really? If these two were the bombers. So why are they still having their backpack after the bomb went off in the knapsack at the scene?

    They are standing on the road beside the police van top right.

    Those guys do look like military, but to me - if anything, they look like they're doing undercover security, not something suspicious.

    Also, I thought Jason Bourne took care of the guy on the right in Bourne Ultimatum???

    Yeah it would seem pretty stupid for a trained team conspiring to detonate bombs that dress the exact same way. They do look suspicious though and should be investigated.

    BTW, how the hell are these guys 'same skin tone'? Maybe it's just me, but it looks pretty clear that it's a white guy and a brown guy... Looks like John Cena and Desh from Bourne Ultimatum...

    They look more like security than they do terrorists.
