This involves the image that shows the white hat bomber with the backpack behind the family of the eight year old who was killed in the bombing.
I'm sorry, I don't know how to post an image here at FreeRepublic, so if someone else can...
The first I saw this image it bothered me. The image shows the bomber facing left with the backpack hanging from his left hand dangling near the sidewalk. Slightly to the left of him and in the fore ground, the eight year old boy who was killed, his sister who lost a limb, and I assume their father are standing next to the railing. Directly behind them from the camera POV are two guys with very short haircuts, one with a full beard. Almost every one in the image seems to be watching the race with the exception of the two guys who are facing right and appear to be looking directly at the bomber. The bomber, who looks to me as having a broad grin on his face as if greeting these two, is looking at them. The most left short hair is wearing a black backpack. I can almost convince myself that I see something hanging off the other short hairs shoulders as well.
Has anybody seen anything about this posted anywhere else on the internet? I searched, but couldn't find anything beyond comments about the bomber and the little boy and girl.
I can post a link to the image I guess.

You can't just snag a favorite picture from a desktop folder...it has to be hosted someplace on line to be posted here.
Best bet is to save the image to an image hosting service, I use Photobucket. In Firefox right click and select "Copy image location", in Safari right click and select "Open image in new tab" and copy the address in the address bar. Other browsers have similar tricks.

Do you have a direct link to the photo?
Wow
Just saw it. Nevermind.
Thanks for the helpful info.
What I find curious is the fact that everyone is looking for potential male terrorists among a bunch known for using female bombers.
Other groups do use female bombers but the Chechens make up the bulk of them.
I don't think he is looking at the bearded guy, I think he is looking past him. I suspect that Tamerlan walked on ahead of him, after planting the first bomb and turning around and walking back, and that he is looking to see where Tamerlan is.
The little Saudi guy al-Harbi supposedly was injured in the blast. I don't see him here or in the set of photos taken at the other blast site in the seconds following the explosion.
That’s a really good point.
I believe the females were the ones wearing suicide vests during the Moscow theater attack a few years back. I believe a fair number of the Beslan school attackers were female as well.
I’ve been reading that the mother of the Boston bombers was growing increasingly radical.
Holy crap!
There’s only one black man in that picture!
Which bomber got the Man that lost his legs??? white hat does not have sunglasses on, so must have been the older one
You noticed that too. hmm
I don’t see any of them in these photos. One newscaster said of all these photos that it’s like trying to find a needle in a pile of needles.
bump
What? 30 people lost one leg or more.
I didn’t realise that about the mom.
