That pic does make you think. Unfortunately, much bigger bombs do go off in many areas of the world every day. I just never thought (well, hoped not) that jihad would come here.

Update, 12:24 p.m. EST: NBC News reports that at-large Boston bombing suspect Dzhokar Tsarnaev is a naturalized American citizen. According to the news network, he became a citizen last year on September 11th.

Update, 11:56 a.m. EST: Ruslan Tsarni, the uncle of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects, described his nephews as “losers” Friday morning. Via TheDC’s Patrick Howley: “Being losers,” Ruslan Tsarni, the uncle of bombing suspects Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, said in a press conference outside his Maryland home Friday when asked what motivated his nephews to carry out the bombings….“Anything having to do with religion, with Islam, is a fake,” Tsarni said, in regard to reports that his nephews’ Muslim religion may have influenced their terrorist attack. Tsarni said that his nephews never expressed any hatred toward America.

Update, 11:51 a.m. EST: Business Insider has put up a Google-translated statement from Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov that was posted on Instagram this morning: “The tragic events took place in Boston. The blast killed people. We have previously expressed their condolences to the people of the city and the people of America. Today, as reported by the media, while trying to arrest a Tsarnaea was killed. It would be logical if he was detained and investigated, found all the circumstances and the degree of his guilt. Apparently, the special services needed by all means to calm the result of society. Any attempt to make the connection between Chechnya and Tsarnaevymi if they are guilty, in vain. They grew up in the United States, their attitudes and beliefs were formed there. It is necessary to seek the roots of evil in America. From terrorism to fight the whole world. We know better than anyone else. We wish recovery to all the victims and share the feelings of sorrow Americans.”

Unless there's something else going on that TPTB have managed to keep *completely* off the air/media, folks are soon gonna start wondering if this is a 3,000+ man CF for one 19yo kid, no matter much training he may/not have had.

Makes me wonder why I only need a seven round magazine.

The probably don't want him alive. Could be that they were paid to do this by a foreign power and the admin doesn't want an international mess on its hands. Iran funds chechnyan terrorists...

Based on nothing, I have this feeling that the perps aren't all that radical. This was about money; that they are paid operatives.

“7-11 was not robbed. There was a car-jacking in the 7-11 parking lot.”

Do you have a link? All the news timelines I have seen still have at 10:40, a 7-11 was robbed with police believing it was the suspects.

Mercenaries usually want to live and spend their money, not don a suicide vest.

If they were paid operatives, it seems like they would have had enough money to get the heck out of Dodge. :)

Seriously, I think the older brother was a loser, got involved in Islamist jihad as a way to find some kind of purpose in his life (eyes rolling backwards), and then involved his younger brother.

Sleeper cells...part of a big group and sometimes the actual bomber doesn’t know the full operation or the plans they just do it.

RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.”

And we don’t know do we?

I have felt it is a CF since about 0200 this morning.

What do you want to bet the kid is gone or being hidden by “friends”.

How did he so completely disappear from an area almost completely cordoned off by cops this morning? Were there no helicopters monitoring the escape?

I’m thinking they wanted to Bomb MIT and that was why they stuck around. Not sure why MIT.
