    No. please do tell. For a decade of disaster training.. maybe I expect too much but please give me something. Reminds me of the TSA.. they haven't caught any terrorists yet they get busted for drug running and stealing things out luggage, etc. At some point, we need to judge if these services are a positive or a detriment to society.

    I'm just saying that there were failures everywhere.. and it seems like no one is accountable.

    Why did the FBI already know these people and why were they allowed back into the country if they were terrorist threats? (as the FBI admitted knowing them once Russia Today outted them) Seems like a big failure there too.

    According to the guy in the vid above, if there were enough dogs, they'd be taken on every single mission. There just aren't enough of them.

    And dogs were used to clear the race path in the Boston Marathon. The bombs were placed after the fact, though. The dogs cannot check every spot 24/7. It's going to be damn near impossible to stop someone who brings in a small bomb and detonates it very quickly like these guys did. We obviously need more dogs, but that's easier said than done.

    Really interesting read. Everyone should take a look. It dispels much of the conspiracy talk, IMO.

    Not conspiracy based but I would like to know why they were so confident he would be in a 20 block perimeter 6 hours after they abandoned the search. They had 9000 cops, seems they could have expanded the search.

    Second there were reports that they had searched the boat earlier. Judging by the blood stains everywhere I find it hard to believe... Unless an officer claimed he searched the area thoroughly when he did not, because he was afraid of blowing up...

    The authorities essentially call off Marshall law and claim he has left the area...and 10 minutes later there is a shoot out. The authorities didn't even find the suspect, the public did.

    The authorities gave themselves a lot high fives when they were very lucky.

    I have 1 question for all that.

    If those men in black are responsible...why don't their backpacks have a strip on the strap?

    :eek:

    The picture of the naked suspect and the dead suspect is two diferrent people. Hair on chest of dead victim, no hair on the naked man.

    The naked man being walked in handcuffs? I see it on the dead body, but I don't see it on that naked man. Do I need glasses?

    The man was the person the suspects car jacked. Police stripped him naked for their safety...

    Wouldn't want a penis bomb going off, spraying semen all over police...obviously

    Again, where do you get your information? You have no idea how many terrorist threats have been stopped by the TSA or associated agencies. That information would be classified.

    Who says they knew they were terrorist threats? All we know is that Russia suggested we look into them. If nothing was found, then what? Do you think we should now arrest US citizens and deny them the ability to enter their own country on suspicion that they might do something later on? Screw evidence, due process, etc? Is this Minority Report now?

    But they are on their cell phones and looking relatively calm - they MUST be involved. :)

    Haven't been following the thread but just a few questions:

    1. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

    Why is everyone convinced without a doubt that these two brothers were the perpetrators? It is one thing for the media and general public to eat up whatever our government tells us, but how exactly do they know without a shred of doubt to begin with? No court, no trial, no evidence. Yet everyone has already taken it as fact. No one finds this questionable?

    2. So supposedly the naked man wasn't suspect 1, even though the aunt swears by it. Okay, your words against hers, whatever. But, there are clear pictures of suspect 2 CLIMBING out of the boat. And then, next thing you know, he is incapacitated, bullet/knife through the throat and conveniently never able to talk again. No one finds this questionable?
