    Local time is probably EST. If Obama was in Houston it would probably show CST. If Obama is in D.C. (which he is in the picture) it would show EST

    99% of us do not care about the posts concerning the president's timezone. Thank you.

    Is there a link to the uncle video?

    Its been more than 12 hours since they were face to face with this guy, who is still on the run.

    If this were a video game, and I was the good guy going after him, I would quit and reload the save from 12 hours ago because I know I seriously messed up in the last 12 hours or so.

    If I was the bad guy, the guy running away, I would keep saving the game every 5 minutes with a huge grin on my face, knowing that I am owning the "You wont survive" ultra hard mode.

    PER IPT (Investigative Project on Terrorism) has an article on them stating that one of the videos that is on the Bomber's YouTube page advocates martyrdom.

    http://www.investigativeproject.org/3982/rough-translation-of-video-posted-by-dzhokhar

    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oz2m0dbRaj8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Here is the translation of the YouTube video.

    Approximate translation:

    Sham, Sham, Sham. They are killing your brothers and sisters for no reason. And for that they are saying our lord is Allah, and Muhammad is our savior. And they firmly stick to the book of Allah and Sunnah Muhammada, Muhammad's Sunnah.

    Allah loves Sham and these people, and He chose Sham and His people. Sayyid Ibn [sp ?] [UI name] says that the person Allah sent said that he said, 'Tuba for Shama, Tuba for Shama, Tuba for Shama. Tuba is a tree in the heaven. And the shadow of this tree cannot, it takes a person and a horse at least 100 years to go to contour the shadow of the tree, which is in the heaven, that's called Tuba.

    We asked why the savior sent by Allah, we asked why savior from Allah, and he answered, 'Because the angels are of almighty spread, the angels spread their wings above him.'

    Congratulations to you people of Shama. Congratulations to you. Your protector and your witness, the person Allah sent, for sure 100 percent, without any doubt.

    If I heard that Allah's envoy said, 'Who tolerates horrors and need,' I will be the witness and the savior for the doomsday, the day of final judgment.

    Congrats to you oh people of Shama. Congratulations to you those who tolerates the land of Shama. Congratulations to you those suffer for, who go through martyrdom of Allah illaha ill Allah. And they're not upset, because their faith in Allah is deeper."

    I was right and you're still against me. I said there was no way he could be from any of those Middle Eastern countries, bigtexx claimed all of which had the same nose/eyebrows. Don't get mad at me for being educated. Southern Italy is pretty far from the Middle East.

    Props to Cowboy Bebop. I said he wasn't Sunil too, but he stuck to his guns even when some started calling him the terrorist.

    I'm confused....some of you are claiming he's still on the run, but didn't they say they blocked off like 20 blocks andn ow they are going house by house searching that area?

    Sounds like he's cornered, but it's a very big corner and they're being extra careful. Experts are saying these sweeps take a long time, so this may be very long and drawn out.
