FBI hunting 12-strong terrorist "sleeper cell" linked to brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar
Daily Mirror (UK) ^ | 21 April 2013 | Staff

Posted on 04/20/2013 5:27:35 PM PDT by rjbemsha

The FBI was last night hunting a 12-strong terrorist “sleeper cell” linked to the Boston marathon bomb brothers.

Police believe Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev were specially trained to carry out the devastating attack.

More than 1,000 FBI agents were last night working to track down the cell and arrested a man and two women 60 miles from Boston in the hours before Dzhokhar’s dramatic capture after a bloody shootout on Friday.

A source close to the investigation said: “We have no doubt the brothers were not acting alone. The devices used to detonate the two bombs were highly sophisticated and not the kind of thing people learn from Google.

“They were too advanced. Someone gave the brothers the skills and it is now our job to find out just who they were. Agents think the sleeper cell has up to a dozen members and has been waiting several years for their day to come.”

I know I reference ‘The Jester’ a lot lately, but he is a hacker who fights Jihadis online and is a treasure trove of info (especially his tweets).

He found on the one in custody’s twitter feed some of the contacts who have deleted their accounts since yesterday and is hot on their trail. It is interesting stuff to read.

What's the best source / website for Jester? Just following him on Twitter? Thanks...

Agreed. Even 12 is way too many (per cell), unless the cell, and the cell above it, is totally expendable. This assumes those involved know what they are doing in terms of organizational security. Heinlein discusses this concisely in “The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress”.

It’s comparable to the NY Post. But you can be sure that some unit of the FBI is checking out the possibility of the brothers having acted at the behest of others. Hence the re-arrest of the Chechens in Revere.

And to think part of the reason for the 1st Amendment was because the British suppression of the press was still fresh in the Founders’ minds.

It is one of the key core problems with the Islamic world. Another is their ideology. On the former, do a search for Middle East consanguinity. There are any number of scholarly articles on the subject.

Since the admin refuses to allow LEOs to act on their jurisdiction/authority with any info other than that given by the White House/Justice Dept, might as well just drone them to begin with and be done with it.

Then the Muslims can’t use the Democrat Party, ACLU and CAIR to make show trials for propaganda purposes.

- Let us all recall that all day the “Flexible Hosers” at MSNBC kept telling us:

“They know where Bomber #2 is!”

- It no no small wonder that Bill Gates had Microsoft association with NBC disolved.

Yep, which the left refuses to admit. An AP story in the daily rag didn't even mention they were Moslems.

The reporters here, and especially the editors, are all cowed by the Democrats.

And meanwhile there are people from all over waiting in line to become migrants to your country and mine. But if they are white, Christian families, they find it impossible to meet the criteria. They need to have a certain amount of funds and be self-supporting; in Australia for example, a white family from South Africa has to be able to buy a business and employ at least three full-time employees to qualify for residency and be able to apply for citizenship.
We have all handed our sovereignty over the the UN, haven’t we?
