Boston Bombers On Terrorist Watch Lists … Russia Contacted U.S. MULTIPLE TIMES Regarding Bombers
The Boston Globe reports:
Russian authorities alerted the US government not once but ``multiple’’ times over their concerns about Tamerlan Tsarnaev -- including a second time nearly a year after he was first interviewed by FBI agents in Boston -- raising new questions about whether the FBI should have focused more attention on the suspected Boston Marathon bomber, according to US senators briefed on the probe Tuesday.
***
In a closed briefing on Tuesday, members of the Senate Intelligence Committee learned that Russia alerted the United States about Tsarnaev in ``multiple contacts’’ -- including ``at least once since October 2011,’’ said Richard Burr, a Republican of North Carolina, speaking with reporters afterward.
Senators said the briefing also revealed failures among federal agencies to share vital information about Tsarnaev, indicating, they said, that the US government still has not established a strong system to ``connect the dots’’ about would-be terrorists residing in America more than a decade after 9/11.
Similarly, foreign governments repeatedly warned the U.S. before 9/11. The chair of the 9/11 Commission said that the attack was preventable. It is thoroughly-documented that an attack such as 9/11 was entirely foreseeable. Specifically, Al Qaeda flying planes into the World Trade Center and Pentagon was something which American military and intelligence services – and our allies – knew could happen.
Several key employees for the defense department say that the government covered up their testimony about tracking lead hijacker Mohammed Atta before 9/11.
Reuters notes:
The name of one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was listed on the U.S. government's highly classified central database of people it views as potential terrorists.
***
Another list, the Terrorist Screening Database, is a declassified version of the highly classified TIDE with fewer details about terrorist suspects. One source said Tsarnaev was on this list, too.
After being put in the TIDE system, his name was entered in another database, this one maintained by the Homeland Security Department's Customs and Border Protection bureau which is used to screen people crossing U.S. land borders and entering at airports or by sea.
Moreover, Senator Saxby Chambliss - who served on the United States House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and chaired the House Intelligence Subcommittee on Terrorism and Homeland Security - told Channel 2 Action News from Atlanta that a law enforcement agency may have had information in advance of the Boston bombings that wasn't properly shared.
"There now appears that may have been some evidence that was obtained by one of the law enforcement agencies that did not get shared in a way that it could have been," Chambliss said.
(Was the evidence the reason why the bomb squad, bomb-sniffing dogs and a "drill" were present at the starting line of the Boston marathon?)
The Bush and Obama administrations implemented hardly any of the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission.
Both the Bush and Obama administrations have slashed funding for programs which would actually help prevent terror attacks.
Why have we lost our rights in the new "post-9/11 world" if the government can't keep us safe?
Trillions of dollars - and thousands of American lives - have been squandered on boondoggles and pork.
What the heck are we doing?

This, of course, is so we can "DO SOMETHING!" about the Chech'unz we knew about for quite some time who gutted a stash of fireworks to make their bombs.

Fuck them I roll my own.
they're going to change the name of the race from the Marathon to the Boston 28 mile Run For Your Life, the Terrorists Are After You
Blame Obama.
GW,
You ought to consider this as a key, new, and interestingly timed piece of the narrative. The destruction of key 9/11 documents ON DOD SECURE COMPUTERS ahead of a hearing, now 'postponed'.
They lost 400 GB, recovered 98% of that....and what couldn't be recovered just happened to be the 9/11 stuff.
Fancy that.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-04-17/sept-11-hearings-delayed-until-...
Army Lt. Colonel Todd Breasseale, a Pentagon spokesman, said in a statement that the Office of Military Commissions, which is prosecuting the case, “suffered from a nearly catastrophic server ‘crash’” that led to “losses of indiscriminate data.” Of almost 400 gigabytes of data initially lost, “seven gigabytes have yet to be accounted for,” he said.
Hearings in the case, which began last year, have been plagued by delay. In August, the threat of a hurricane canceled a week of arguments while hearings this year were slowed as the judge probed defense claims that the government was eavesdropping on them.
Where are the fucking backups tapes??? Oh you know. the full backup DONE EVERY FUCKING WEEK and the incremental tapes that are done daily.
Catastrophic accident my ass.
Due to budgetary restrictions there are no more 'back ups' made of DOD files; funds for such measures have been re-prioritized to the mandate of NSA to record and store records of your every conversation.
once again, blatant, increasingly blatant
The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings has told investigators that he and his brother were headed for New York to party after the attack

Also, the brothers’ aunt said that a Boston-area mosque has refused to hold a funeral for Tamerlan Tsarnaev
What can a devout muslim do at a party, whitout music and drinks, women covered up etc?
No beer, no dancing, no music, no women, why wouldn't they kill themselves?
7-2 favortie right now that "Misha", the "Armenian Muslim red-beard who lived in Cambridge and inspired Tamerlan", is an FBI informant.
Was Boston Bomber Radicalized at U.S.-Sponsored Workshop?
Bombing? Really?
Have you been watching CNN, George?
Are you a tool?

+1 for the article, George. Good to see you put your progressive side to rest for a change.

Slow motion video:
(watch at 720p full screen)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CY7SW4gCaBk
11 sec – explosion – no damage at all – even air balloons did not pop! and seen
flying away.
21 sec – camera pans – there is some smoke, but not much, you can see trough – no victims yet.
25 sec – group of people (7-15) are coming out of the building with broken windows -one is wearing red hat.
No runnig, very calmly walking out.
33 sec – you can hear a pop ! smoke grenade goes off.
A lot of smoke to cover clowns getting into position, applying fake blood, waiting for smoke to clear.
And – scene!
You are an absolute idiot, troll or both.
There are lots of things about this story that don't add up. However, none of your claims are meaningful.
Not convincing. And why bother to fake it? Duo you suppose they care about killing a few people and maiming others? Focus on the stuff Beck is breaking and on the FBI connection. Also the latter Merc presence. Ask these look to be more promiSing paths of inquiry
I agree. And some are arguing if anyone was "handling" the elder brother, the CIA would be a better bet (the embedded video is worth watching):

Beck?!
Is it a joke?
Do you follow Oprah too?
I said follow the information, not Beck. It is a much stronger line of inquiry then what you are putting out.
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/24/armed-and-dangerous-becks-lat...
Read this before you disparage the Beck story.
Follow his radio show for one day before you pass judgement on this story.
The narrative states that one of the brothers, I don't know which one, the one they executed or the one they shot in the ambulance, was able to travel to Russia, and become radicalized.
"Oh what a tangled web we weave, When first we practise to deceive!" Sir Walter Scot
It was Tamerlan, the elder brother.

False Flags, Fake Blood, and Michelle Obama: A Guide to the Boston Marathon Conspiracies(FROM WIRED MAGAZINE)
Forget everything you thought you knew about the Boston bombings. The real story behind the attack involves not a pair of radicalized brothers, but a world-spanning conspiracy of Michelle Obama, a network of Russian oligarchs, and an army of stagehands armed with fake blood. Oh, and deceased suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev? He was taken alive. Naked.
Of course all this is true, it’s on the internet. And the internet’s conspiracy theorists have been hard at work the past week revealing the hidden secrets behind the Boston Marathon bombings. The reason for all the complexity and machinations between the rich and powerful: it’s a necessary measure before imposing martial law in the United States. Boston was merely the catalyst.
Before you dismiss all this, ask yourself: can you prove the Boston bombings aren’t part of a plan to impose martial law? Didn’t think so. Asking our audience to disprove non-falsifiable claims is also an essential part of Tinfoil Tuesday, Danger Room’s sporadic venture into the delectable lunacy of online conspiracy theories. That sleight of hand involving the burden of proof are central to the conspiracy theories about Boston.
The Boston Marathon bombings have become a conspiratorial cornucopia. One video circulating the web purports to show a stripped Tamerlan being taken into custody, after he died. Other theories focused on Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi, a student and Saudi national who was injured in the bombing — and incorrectly reported by the New York Post to be a “potential” suspect. “Why was the investigation of a mysterious Saudi national with familial links to al-Qaeda suddenly dropped shortly after the Saudi ambassador held an unscheduled meeting with Barack Obama?” blogger Michael Snyder asked yesterday. “Why did Michelle Obama subsequently visit that mysterious Saudi national in the hospital?”
Maybe because Alharbi was never actually a suspect? But the Obamas – mysteriously – visited injured patients at several Boston-area hospitals on Thursday — something you’d never expect presidents and their spouses to do after a national tragedy. It’s merely the perfect cover for Michelle Obama to visit the Saudi national to discuss her sinister plans.
Nor was Michelle Obama the only one up to something shady. Blogger Daniel Hopsicker at Madcow Morning News — no relation to radio talk show host Erich “Mancow” Muller — named “Uncle” Ruslan Tsarni, the suspects’ uncle, as a member of the conspiracy. Tsarni’s accomplices? “Halliburton executives, suspected CIA assets, Chechnyan crime bosses, oligarchs stealing billions from banks and laundering money with seeming impunity, fire-eaters, peacock-feathered stilt-walkers, and a girl swinging on a trapeze pouring vodka into ice sculptures shaped like naked male and female torsos,” Hopsicker wrote.
It’s not clear what the swinging girl had to do with this. But none of their plans could have come to fruition were it not for the patsies on the ground on the day of the bombing. Blogger “Bman,” who writes “The Redneck’s Guide to Reversing Their Control of Your Brain,” speculated the traumatic leg injuries caused by the blasts were fake (warning: graphic), and the injured victims of the bombings were actors who dumped several liters of fake blood on the ground. “There is clear evidence of false flag staging here,” he wrote. (Ugh.) That theory was also picked up by online fans of alleged bomber Dzokhar Tsarnaev — they claim he’s been framed.
Alternatively, according to Israeli conflict tabloid Debkafile, the Tsarnaev brothers carried out the attacks. They just weren’t meant to. They were “double agents,” Debkafile claimed, “hired by U.S. and Saudi intelligence to penetrate the Wahhabi jihadist networks which, helped by Saudi financial institutions, had spread across the restive Russian Caucasian.” But then something went wrong. “Instead, the two former Chechens betrayed their mission and went secretly over to the radical Islamist networks.”
That doesn’t jibe with Infowars, which has the dubious honor of being out in front of all Boston Marathon-related insanity. Last week, the king of conspiracy sites flirted with the purported Saudi connection in the days after the bombing, but switched gears once the Tsarnaev brothers had their identities revealed. According to Infowars, Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a “false flag asset” in the employ of the government. “This is what fully fledged martial law in America looks like,” Steve Watson wrote. According to Infowars’ Kurt Nimmo, the purported Saudi link is now “part of the establishment’s plan to ramp up and extend the phony war on Muslim terror.”
So a conspiracy theory is itself part of the conspiracy? Laugh if you want. But if true, it means there are conspiracy theorists out there who may not be as trustworthy as they seem. Perish the thought.
Fake blood? People missing arms & legs might disagree.
there is one sentence that this batshit crazy happens to personally agree with:
it means there are conspiracy theorists out there who may not be as trustworthy as they seem.
rebuttal:
However, there is a rule in your business. Reporters aren’t allowed to follow their noses. They aren’t allowed to do investigations on their own. They most definitely aren’t permitted to do technical analysis of evidence, like crime-scene photos or video. No, all technical interpretation has to come from government agencies.
If you go off the reservation, you’ll take heavy hits from your bosses.
But all this is meaningless. It’s just mental masturbation, because, finally, you know there is no possible way your producer will allow you to present evidence that the official Boston scenario has gaping holes in it.
...
To the degree that you have any shred of conscience left, you’re in a bind. Maybe it’s the moment to offload that last bit of idealism and go completely corporate. It’s not as if you’ve been challenging your bosses; you’ve just been asking yourself questions privately. So what’s the problem? Just stop asking the questions.
...
So they have crazy ideas, one. They’re saying nobody was hurt, there were no bombs, two. They’re claiming all the bleeding people at the Marathon were actors brought in from some outfit in Colorado, three. They’re saying these massacre ops are designed to shut down freedom in America, four. They’re dangerous, five.
Roll all that up into a ball and you’re good to go. Whatever they’ve actually got in terms of troubling and disturbing and truthful video and photo evidence will disappear in a sea of ridicule.
Perfect.
Imply there are two basic classes of people: the normals and the crazies. The crazies are threatening the rest of us. They’re multiplying like fruit flies. They’re swarming the Internet. They’re disrespecting the wounded and dead—don’t forget that one. How dare they come out with all this insanity as the families are grieving and in turmoil.
...
Right. You’re giving the audience a choice. Do they want to be nuts, or do they want to be normal. Normal is the wave of the future. Soon, that’s all there will be. The others will be wiped out. They have no cache. They have no right to challenge the order of things.

Oh ho ho ho.
How mildly amusing.
I'm in stitches.
Russian newspaper "Izvestia" claimes that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was trained by Georgian organization.

Old news. Isreali paper last Saturday:
http://debka.com/article/22914/The-Tsarnaev-brothers-were-double-agents-who-decoyed-US-into-terror-trap
Don't worry, America will continue to fund and arm the crazies running Georgia who started a war with Russia...
that, the fact that it has strategic oil, and the unpublished details of the last decade is what makes me so ...suspicious
just outside of Atlanta
Georgia is a country south of the Caucasus.
And they hate the Czechs to death. Because Prague is so nice or something.
Prague is indeed nice. Not much of a reason to hate the Czechs to death though.
Seriously, is there one thing that the government does right? These fucksticks are the most useless bureaucrats known to man. They are best at ramming their collective dicks in our ass
Hey DogBreath - surely you jest, right? George just told you more truth in a few paragraphs than you will get from watching several weeks' worth of infotainment...
check out the link. looks like a staged event to me so I don't believe anything where the source is the msm. phony bombing, phony victims, phony perps, real cops.
There are over 314 million US residents' names already on their terrorism watch lists and most of them have multiple warning flag already.
Heaven forbid if the FBI were to have to arrest a suspect that it didn't already consider a potential terrorist, there would be serious allegations that they didn't know what they were doing before hand...
Either way- they will be asking MOAR MONEY now to improve their performance, because that's why they weren't successful in preventing the terrorists in the first place...
I would say there are 50% more. If past performance is any indication, there are a bunch of dupes, mispelled names, double billed, etc. My wife's misspelled name by a cleark 10 years ago still shows up on a junk mail everyonce in a while.
