Reported Boston Explosion Suspect In Custody, Is A Saudi National
Update from Bloomberg: Boston Police says no suspects are in custody. Could it be that even the venerable NYPost got something wrong? Or is the Boston PD merely making a distinction between someone in custody (i.e., arrested) and someone guarded as a possible suspect? We should find out soon.
Just a brief blurb at the NY Post for now (which may have been overzealous in reporting the number of casualties earlier) but for what it's worth:
- Authorities ID'd a suspect in marathon bombings - he is being guarded in Boston hospital.
- Authorities have a identified a suspect, who is currently being guarded in a Boston hospital with shrapnel wounds.
Unclear how much credibility to assign to this, but that's what is being reported. We will provide more info if and when we see it. Some more via twitter, where we learn that according to CBSNews, police have surveillance video a person bringing multiple backpacks into the area 20 or so minutes before the explosions.
The NY Post has released more, such as the nationality of the suspect: Saudi.
Authorities have confirmed to The Post that they have identified a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing.
The suspect — a Saudi national who suffered shrapnel wounds in today's blast — is currently being guarded in a Boston hospital.
A law enforcement source confirmed to The Post that 12 people were killed and nearly 50 were injured in today's blast.

can't be much worse than "NYSE flooded under three feet of water"
Can hardly wait for the Jim Carrey backpack video.
Can't wait until Obama's dual Confiscation and Spending Bill.
A Saudi national??? Shit... Time to go after Syria then!
Get me Jim Willie on the phone, stat.
He's been intoning that the House of Saud would fall and the petrodollar along with.
Well it sure wasn't Haamid Ade Zaid, the Easter Bunny Bomber. He's still in jail.
Bob, we're reporting wide spread raping, looting and billions dead
you've seen raping and looting ?
No Bob, but we are reporting it.

Drive-buy Media is no scruple, report anything (but truth).
Saudi? Sounds like a perfect patsy.
Gov's conspiracy theory was that 911 was work of Saudis and they then mounted invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq.
Using same approach, we can now expect retaliatory attack on Iran for Boston bombings.
"Gov's conspiracy theory was that 911 was work of Saudis and they then mounted invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Using same approach, we can now expect retaliatory attack on Iran for Boston bombings."
Might be a decent plan if the Saudi came from a training camp in Iran. If he was from an Afghani training camp or Tora Bora somebody better start explaining though. After $1trillion or so down that shithole they should be able to keep a lid on Afghanistan at least, with troops on the ground.
If a passport flew out of his wallet unscathed, then it must be the Saudi.
Who's kidding who here? That brown guy has been in custody for months.
Boy the MSM will be on conference calls all night to figure out how to spin this one.
"A Saudi, inspired by right-wing extremism..."
Edit: Wow, that was quick!

Two questions: How did he get into the country....if through the Mexican Border the immigration bill might be dead and will Napolitano's prospects for keeping her job, and, 2. Did DHS waste valuable resources buying more bullets that cold be used in the Iraq war in 30 years and bying approx. 3000 APC's that could have been applied to tracking down terrorists? Time will reveal all...
Terrorist is slip in with refugee from War with Oceana!
Time will reveal all...
Well, maybe 50 or 100 years will reveal all, but you can bet that everything you see tonight and tomorrow will be approved somewhere in DC first.
Dunno, something like this: "DHS questioned over decision to let Saudi passengers skip normal passport controls"
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/03/20/decision-to-extend-trusted-traveler-program-to-saudi-scrutinized/
ASSUMING the suspect was responsible.
His visa was fast-tracked on request of the CIA.

Saudi Arabia And China Team Up To Build A Gigantic New Oil Refinery – Is This The Beginning Of The End For The Petrodollar?
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/saudi-arabia-and-china-team-...
Just a warning to the house of Saud not to think about trading anything but dollars.
i'll start here....so it wasnt saddam? it wasnt osama? it wasnt quadafi? it wasnt castro? its not the gitmo guys? its not the guy with the fire carckers in his shoes? it wasnt the guy that they plotted, supplied all fake weapons and explosives to ?....so who, who god dammit is it? assad? armandhammerdidajad? the pakistani hat wearing guy?....is it a gang of jealous hoverround slobs that hate marathon runners?..is it the fucking freedom thing again,(i thought we fixed that)? .....tell us comcast, disney, time warner, jay carney, tell us please....
Lee Harvey Oswald.
Some terrorist attacks have actually been perpetrated by terrorists, but they are quite rare
yeah like; S&L's, Enron, MF Global, Lehman, B Sterns, AIG, 911 it's getting "rare(er) by the day
There goes the open borders, immigration reform vote.
BLAME BUSH
You're presuming the US Senate has shame or common sense or even good judgement, I assure you they have none of those traits.
No reason to waste this great opportunity to shut down all oil pipelines from Canada and increase our imports from Saudi Arabia- our true and faithful friends.
Good thing the Koran teaches deception as balm for the soon-to-be slaughtered.
Can you say Kitman and Taqqiyya, on our way to Dhimmitude???
Obama at 3:13 p.m PST - mobilized first responders - still do not know who did this or why - make no mistake we will get who did this - bla, bla, bla
Vapous asshole. All platitudes - no information - just a bunch of hot air. Bostonians will pull together.... etc.
Horrible, horrible for the people in Boston. Tax Day? Either it will appear to be / or actually be a homegrown anti-government terrorist & pave way for greater drone patrols, erosion of civil liberties.
I wonder if a Saudi princess funded this one, you know like 9/11..
It's inconceivable it would be a Saudi. You mean those gentle people who flew planes into the twin towers? Nah.
You sure about that? Because the last time I checked, the biggest beneficiaries of 9-11 are the Jews and Israel. Just sayin'.
mossad fingerprints all over 9/11, they did it according to many.
but but but didn't they find some mooslim's passport that survived the pulverization of twin towers?
Didn't take long for the trolls to show up...
Shalom Shalom, Bitch!
~"...they did it according to many."~
What kind of happy horseshit is that? So enough innuendo makes things so? What, pray tell, are you smoking? Because your disconnect with reality is now complete. Congrats.
wtf a newbie troll who keeps 2x posting...
Biggest beneficiaries of 9-11 was Halliburton all defense contractors, Bush, Cheney. Israel was a BIG TIME loser cuz Sadd-am was their best friend against the Mullahs. When W decided to buy it after breaking it, poof no WMD's no more Sunni dictatorship over a hostile country thats 60% Shia next door. No more obstacles to Greater Persia. If we had balls we'd cut a deal with the Shia, overrun Iraq, the House of Saud with them. Also Kuwait and divvy it up. And have a window inserted in yer stomach so u can see cuz yer head is so far up there...
Why would you ever believe that non-pilots can fly planes with such stunning accuracy?
You mean my whole fallacy's wrong?
News flash! Flying a plane is not that hard once it's in the air. Your aiming for a pretty big target. Go fly xplane for a month and then reexamine your question.
+1 Touche
It can't be a Saudi, since the all-knowing, ammo hoarding, bull dyke of DHS says the Saudis deserve an express line at US Customs because they pose even less of a threat of terrorism then even those war-mongering Swiss nationals...
Whoa Urban! She's not so much a bull dyke as she seems. She just has..., penis-aversion issues.
Didn't they just change the Visa entry rules for Saudi Nationals giving them special status to enter the United States? As Students?
We need to make it the 51st state....than let all the illegals move there and have citizenship and take the oil, yeah, that's the ticket...
Oh yes they did!!!! State department gave them FAST PASS.
http://townhall.com/columnists/michellemalkin/2013/03/22/dumb-and-dangerous-americas-fast-pass-for-saudi-arabia-n1545758/page/full/
Yeah, they are here to learn how to carry out domestic terrorism. What's the big deal? It's not like they have more rights than your average American or anything.
Barry said , from the 14th green, send all available paralegals immediately to the scene !
was he an arab or north korean?
angry middle-aged white guy- the new new terrorist du jour
Did they find him in a movie theater?
THE REAL QUESTION IS:
WHERE DO ALL THOSE FIT AMERICAN WHO RUN COME FROM?!?!?!?
Over rated, SD.
Nobody likes fat, but you don't want a boney woman, either.
Work your fingers to the bone, and what do you get??
Boney fingers..... boney fingers.
You're dating yourself... ;)
Will someone please get Sheila Jackson Lee to demand that we need more marathon controls? If people weren't running so far this wouldn't happen. It seems to be her point with guns, maybe we can apply it to marathons! (Actually she said that we need a resolution to enforce the laws we already have on the books. Go figure.)
http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/rep-jackson-lee-don-t-condemn-gangba...
That song pairs up perfectly with "put another log on the fire"
"WHERE DO ALL THOSE FIT PEOPLE WHO RUN COME FROM?!?!?!?"
Fixed it
Answer: Everywhere else BUT Amurika!
Let's not go from Rather Skeptical to Totally Paranoid. To answer your Q:
1. It is a famous athletic event. Of course you'll have tons of fit people there.
2. According to Brian Williams on NBC, they are Army Reservists
But I cordially invite you to keep going after "REAL" questions, as you put it. :-)
Belgians who'd sworn off eating Freedom Fries.

Guess I'll be sick of wolf blitzer in about 20 min
That's a good thirty minutes longer than I can tolerate him.
I don't even watch CNN and I'm sick of him.
Obama will say that this just shows how we need more money (e.g. tax increases on the wealthy) to pay the heroic first responders (and fund their feather bed pensions).
No focus will be on stopping the fuckard that did this getting into the country in the first place. Can't believe they picked up a Saudi stooge in less than two hours - so transparent.
Did the stooge have a Al-Queda flag draped around him? Sounds fishy.
WAIT - It was because of the anti-muhammad video that this happened - that's the ticket....
No terrorism here - where is OBUMMER anyways - I can't believe he isn't in front of the camera by now. He is probably under his desk.
Hold onto your wallets.
Wow, that was fast. I'm sure they just got lucky.
If you were a sheep you would think all of today's events are purely coincidental.
"Sources say the man, a white male in his mid-30s with ties to radical libertarian groups, was reportedly carrying a Syrian passport and had the cellphone numbers of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Kim Jung Un."
and no link to the NRA?
nah...
Obama can't use a suspect like that...
Either great police work or another Ozziewaldothingamajigabob.
yeah... New York's Dognut Finest...

Watch him get whacked by some dude who's marginally attached to the Irish mob in Boston.
This will be interesting to see how it unfolds...could there be some mysterious potetial suspects who were on the 'knoll' and have now disappeared?
Kim Jung fUNnny !
...also carrying several shiny gold coins and a Glenn Beck book
gold... the terrorists businesscard...
I thought it was Bitcoin
This was a homicide, not a suicide.
Of course, he's a stacker.
Yeah, hopefully the perp has the correct dates on his facebook account this time. Not a month off like other "terror" attacks..
lol
I wouldn't give credibility to a 'conspiracy theory' that involved the past three days, in any other administration...
...except for this one...
Ant PR speech from NY midget?
banning garbage cans
Yes, it will be discovered very soon that he was a prepper and "gun nut" in the next few hours. Obama will have another chance at getting his fake crying act finessed.
Yeah. Lets ban bombs.
I hope it's not some right wing nut job. There are only three or four conservatives in the state. I would hate to lose one.
Only high capacity bombs... of course, with with proper training and concealed carry permit.
"Yeah. Lets ban bombs."
ALL bombs? What about hunting bombs, will they ban those too?
Yes, like in the Middle/Feudal Ages. Punishable with Extreme Prejudice for going after the King's Game. Now classified as a Barbaric activity, with no yield.
Two words -- "Habitat Restoration".
"Yes, it will be discovered very soon that he was a prepper and "gun nut" in the next few hours. "
They haven't found his car and opened the trunk, yet. Wait for it.
Obamatron: "If I had a son, he wouldn't look like this man!"
Nothing like kicking off martial law on tax day eh??
Just need to wall off that entire area of coastline.
That should do it.
Thoughts...
Motive?
Any top elites killed/injured?
Watch for early MSM memes
Who/What/Where/When/Why properly investigated?
Cui Bono?
The report has no age or race, not reliable yet.
40 yr old black woman.
49 y/o old white male with Support the 2nd Amendment t-shirt and lots of ZH cookies on his laptop.
Barney? Barney Frank - is that you?
And gold/silver owner.
Can't be...
When black people see somebody run... they also start running...
The innate Olympic runner psychology, no?
well... that all started at the dograces...
a black guy saw a dog run after a rabbit...
the rabbit looked like it was holding something shinny...
so the black man followed the rabit...
AND BEFORE YOU KNEW IT, TRACK RACING WAS BORN!!!
I do wonder where the rabbit is....
But to keep the black runners motivated, they pass a shinny silver stick and there's a man with a gun next to the track...
Good God, man....
That's just wrong.
And unconscionably funny...
He's going to hell for that statement. Wonder if they have hell in Belgium ???
It's called Brussels.
"well... that all started at the dograces...
a black guy saw a dog run after a rabbit...
the rabbit looked like it was holding something shinny...
so the black man followed the rabit..."
No, they put the black guy on the track and then put the dogs after him. It's a nasty habit white folks have.
I just went for the least likey demographic.
It was unexpected. They are preparing other information.
Damn you beat all msn on this. Fuck. Well done
BBC pre-announced it over 30 minutes early.
Blew himself up, we would hope. This kind of chit makes me mad.
Clearly we should be taking all of this at face value, all the time.
ok......time for roll call.....whose here?........................
fonester MIA.
what about disabled vet??.......
You going to offer another turkey sandwich for whoever secures the suspects login?
*huff. puff*
Here I am!
*huff, wheeze*
Been here for hours, really!
creepy lurker..hmm.....the name sounds suspicious......
hahah!!! where is quasimotofasul or whatever his name is????????????
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hungry.
Quazi!!!! Your boys have anything to do with Boston?????
Have faith simple child! Fonestar shall not abondon ye!
Ah there you are.
you know fuu.....its not hard to comment on zh via smartphone these days........i say we grill him...................
Wrong side of the country for me.
100 bucks says the "terrorist" is connected to the Soverign Citizen Movement or something similar...SCM makes the most since given the date (tax day). They'll then connect all gun and gold owners, constitutionalists, RP supporters, 'BOSTON' tea partiers....you know the drill......FALSE FLAG.
BINGO
What's not yet being reported by the mainstream media is that a "controlled explosion" was under way on the same day as the marathon explosion.
As the Boston Globe tweeted today, "Officials: There will be a controlled explosion opposite the library within one minute as part of bomb squad activities."
Bloomberg news is now saying, "This is very likely a terrorist attack."
Awh...
Happens every time, don't it?
Please stop spreading disinformation. Best I can tell, that was the bomb squad detonating the third bomb (you might take note that this tweet was AFTER the attack).
Yeah, WTF?!?! @Martial, did you actually read that before you posted it? If so, WTF?
EDIT: I guess you are repeating Mike Adams/NaturalNews (beyond just the image of the twitter feed). Hmm -- I would not have expected that from him.
Well, I possibly stand corrected. Of course there was a bomb drill there today.
http://www.local15tv.com/news/local/story/UM-Coach-Bomb-Sniffing-Dogs-We...
What a coincidence !!
oh really??
University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach, who was near the finish line of the Boston Marathon when a series of explosions went off, said he thought it was odd there were bomb sniffing dogs at the start and finish lines.
“They kept making announcements on the loud speaker that it was just a drill and there was nothing to worry about,” Coach Ali Stevenson told Local 15. “It seemed like there was some sort of threat, but they kept telling us it was just a drill.”
http://www.local15tv.com/mostpopular/story/UM-Coach-Bomb-Sniffing-Dogs-W...
Guess the dogs failed the test.
Any chance this guy was running in the race with some kind of device that would set off the bombs as he ran by? Maybe he miscalculated and got shrapneled as he ran by and thus was unable to get to the other bombs. When medical assitance came they found the transmitter and the case was solved?
"Any chance this guy was running in the race with some kind of device that would set off the bombs as he ran by?"
Maybe he carried that sucker internally for 26 miles and 384 yards? Or maybe there's a simpler explanation. :)
That was fast. Good research. It's settled then. Back to farming.
ABC news already had a guest speaker who was basically blaming on Tea Party types...
Round up the usual suspects
I've hear he had a teabag in his pocket and was going towards the harbor...
He had a long gun, no a short pistol, no and automatic, no a little bomb, no a big stick of dyna... Ahhh. shucks we got the guy, really. [/sarc]
I hope they get the real perpetrator.
Reminds me of after 9/11 they had suspect p.o box in 60 seconds found in Iraq oil. Same time frame needed to frame Oswald for JFK.
