D'uhh. No, your foreign policy creates Muslim resistance- you are the terrorists. At least according to them.

The majority of people that don't support violence on either side do not exist, according to the media sanctioned discourse. "You're either with us, or against us" according to a well known shrub who was given considerable media exposure. Well at least that states it explicitly- and I'm against both you and your ilk on t'other side.

I was not aware that the US is unique in so far as being the only Country in the World that has had its citizens brutally murdered at the hands of Islamic radicals .

Neither me- it's about as unique as Iraq, being bombed by Americans. I'm not aware my short piece said anything of the sort actually, although I totally agree with your point. For the sheer amount of bombs dropped though, the US surely takes the cake. I suppose the US taxpayer can afford it.

Why didn't these idiot brothers bomb a truck stop? It seems to me truckers would be the type of American these freaks hate ... Not the type of person who runs or observes marathons.

Most (not all) criminals have subnormal IQ's.

^^ Those truck stops have all those classy chicks waiting for a Mr Right, who'd want to harm them .. 10-4 good buddy.

How about a Bluegrass Festival then? Or maybe a Nickie Minaj concert?

Ku klux klan rally? Nah, too confusing- they dress the bladdy same.

Anyway, this just in-

Dzhokar Tsarnaev Finally Moves Off Campus

BOSTON—After living in residence halls during his first three semesters at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, sophomore student Dzhokar Tsarnaev was finally able to get a place of his own and move off campus this week, the 19-year-old told reporters. “Last semester I shared a double room with a guy at Pine Dale Hall, but now I’ve got a place off campus with no roommate, which is nice,” the engineering student said of his new living arrangements, a 10-by-10-foot room located on the first floor of a decommissioned military base about an hour and 40 minutes north from the university. “It’s been pretty sweet so far. The building is really safe, I don’t have to share a sink with anyone, and living off campus is a lot cheaper than the dorms. Of course, the downside is that the neighbors suck.

I'll accept appologies from those that scoffed at my suggestion that a woman may have been involved.

DNA could and probably will be from a victim, not a female bomb maker. You have to go through everything, process of elimination. Jim

^ May be the bomber has spoken?

He'll get his wish after his jail term.

Seem to remember that this was all a lone wolf job. The truth will come out after it's left the public eye.

Boston bombers: FBI hunting 12-strong terrorist

Lone wolf type terrorists aren't common. By definition, they're loners, so usually obviously different, noticeable, solitary types. The classic was Brevers (?) the Norwegian mass murderer.

What next? Pictures on t-shirts?
He may even make it on to a mural at a Thai university alongside Superman and Hitler

Alleged Boston Bomber on the Cover of the Next Rolling Stone

Guess who is on the cover of the next Rolling Stone magazine?

Justin Timberlake? Pitbull? Alice Cooper, maybe?

Maybe try the alleged Boston Bomber.

Dzokhar Tsarnaev, looking rather rockstar-esque is on the front page of the next installment of the music-based magazine.

Contributing editor Janet Reitman spent the past two months talking to childhood and highschool friends of Tsarnaev to put together an account of how the suspect became the man accused of setting off pressure cooker bombs at the finish line of the Boston Marathon killing 3, and injuring hundreds of others.

Tsarnaev could face the death penalty if he's found guilty.

Boston Marathon bombing: Tsarnaev friend found guilty



Azamat Tazhayakov (centre) was convicted in a Boston, Massachusetts, court




A friend of one of the men suspected of carrying out the Boston Marathon bombing has been convicted of hindering the investigation into the attack.


Azamat Tazhayakov discarded Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's laptop and backpack in the days after the 15 April 2013 attack.

Tazhayakov, a Kazakhstan national who faces up to 20 years in prison, said another man threw out the potential evidence.

Three people died and more than 260 were injured in the blasts.


Death penalty

Lawyers for Tazhayakov argued another friend of Mr Tsarnaev's, Dias Kadyrbayev, was responsible for removing the items from a dorm room at the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth, where Tazhayakov and Mr Tsarnaev were students.

Prosecutors, meanwhile, argued both men, who hail from Kazakhstan, were responsible for the decision to destroy the items, including altered fireworks, to protect Mr Tsarnaev.



Dzhokhar Tsarnaev faces 30 criminal charges


The backpack and fireworks - emptied of their explosive powder - were later found in a Massachusetts landfill.

Mr Kadyrbayev faces a trial in September, while a third friend, US citizen Robel Phillipos, has been charged with lying to investigators in connection with the matter.

Mr Tsarnaev - who faces the death penalty if convicted - will stand trial in November.

He has pleaded not guilty to 30 charges, of which 17 carry the possibility of capital punishment.

Prosecutors allege Mr Tsarnaev set off two pressure cooker bombs with his older brother Tamerlan, who later died in a police shoot-out.

Mr Tsarnaev will be charged under the federal death penalty law; Massachusetts abolished the use of capital punishment in 1984


BBC News - Boston Marathon bombing: Tsarnaev friend found guilty

Well the poor little diddums, fancy them causing him "mental anxiety".

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon bomber, filed a $250,000 lawsuit against the Federal Correctional Complex Florence over his treatment at the Colorado jail facility where he is serving a life sentence, The Associated Press reported Friday.

Tsarnaev accused jail guards of confiscating his bandana and white baseball cap that he bought at the prison commissary and for limiting him to only three showers a week, the Boston Herald reported.

In his handwritten complaint, Tsarnaev said the confiscation of his personal belonging was "unreasonable and discriminatory" and that it caused him a great deal of "mental anxiety."

Tsarnaev is representing himself in the lawsuit.

Tsarnaev claims that prison guards confiscated his baseball hat and bandana because, by wearing it, "I was 'disrespecting' the FBI and the victims" of the bombing, he wrote in the complaint.

"There's no sign or indication that this abuse will stop in the next six months without the court's intervention," Tsarnaev wrote.

Before authorities identified Tsarnaev on surveillance video, he was referred to as the main suspect seen donning a "white hat" while walking away from the blast, reports said.

The baseball hat was evidence during his death-penalty sentencing, but a court struck down the capital punishment in the summer, according to reports.

A judge said Wednesday the filing was "deficient" because it lacked a certified copy of "prisoner's trust fund statement" and a $402 filing fee.

Three people were killed and more than 260 were injured when two pressure cooker bombs were detonated near the marathon's finish line April 15, 2013.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, Tsarnaev's older brother, was killed by police three days later.

Officers from the Federal Bureau of Prisons didn't immediately respond to a request for comment, Thursday.
