Boston bombing suspect cites U.S. wars as motivation, officials say


Wall Street Journal, Scott Wilson, Greg Miller and Sari Horwitz, 04/23/12


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…
