The 19-year-old suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings has
told interrogators that the American wars in Iraq and Afghanistan motivated him
and his brother to carry out the attack, according to U.S. officials familiar
with the interviews.
From his hospital bed, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has acknowledged
his role in planting the explosives near the marathon finish line on April 15,
the officials said. The first successful large-scale bombing in the post-Sept.
11, 2001, era, the Boston attack killed three people and wounded more than 250
others.
The officials said, the evidence so far suggests they were “self-radicalized” through Internet sites and
U.S. actions in the Muslim world. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has specifically cited the
U.S. war in Iraq, which ended in December 2011 with the removal of the last
American forces, and in Afghanistan, where President Obama has made plans to
end combat operations by the end of 2014.
Common Sense Review
I am a believer in red flag intuition and this article is
full of red flags..
First if these two
are “self-radicalized” through internet sites… we need to question their mental
stability. We as adults know that
everything on the internet is not true.
But if you don’t have the mental capability to know the difference
between internet and reality should they be under a doctor’s care like schizophrenics. If these two are mentally challenged, then
wouldn’t his wife, sisters and mother be aware?
Second, Break down
the cost of pressure cookers, nail, bbs, ball bearings , gun power, grenades,
guns…. Wouldn’t someone in their family notice large sums of money coming out
of accounts? Or because they didn’t
work, where did the large sums of money come from?
Third, Pressure cookers are big. Wouldn’t someone ask “Hey Tamerlan, what is
up with all the pressure cookers?”. As
well as the gun powder, nails, bbs and ball bearings… If that didn’t red flag, “Gee
Tamerlan, why do you have grenades?”
Fourth, where do you learn to make Pressure Cooker bombs? I don’t believe there is a book “Bomb making
for Dummies” yet I could be wrong…
Fifth, if you are mad at the govt about combat in another
country… When does it enter your brain, “Let’s blow up runners in a Marathon?”….
“Gee killing that child will show the US govt”
If you don’t like the US in another country, fight on the battle ground…Killing
children are cowardly
Sixth, What piss poor bomber are you when you don’t research
the area you plan on attacking? In this
age of technology and security, not thinking that there is a possibly cameras
are not going to capture you image is a foolish mistake. How
many virgins do you get for being a bad bomber?
In my eyes, there is a group behind these two, who have
educated and funded this endeavor… Yet due to the ignorant mistakes, where does
the group go to a refund their money?
I’m just saying…
