Where are the 5 injured? Convering this up borders on the criminal.
I agree. I doubt it's about the safety of the individuals involved as it would be to the terrorists' benefit to have witnesses come forward. The bad guys want us to know about these things... I can only assume that they are denying reports of injuries so the press doesn't look for them and thus the FBI would have an easier time controlling the flow of information. If that's good or bad at this point, I'm not sure, but I'd say it's a BAD idea on the part of the FBI because it will undermine American's trust of the gov't and the bureau in the long-run.
