So the attack was the Russians fault because they did not do everything for the FBI/DHS? What the H*!! did the Feds expect, the Russian FSB to come over and arrest Tsarnaev?
Our "security" agency(s) dropped the ball and now it's the Russians fault? I don't think so... Our people didn't follow the lead the Russians so helpfully provided for them, let's face it, our people screwed up and are looking to spread the blame around.
Typical Washington bureaucratic CYA BS.

Did our agents screw up? Is it all incompetence? Early on, someone like Debka was saying that Speedbump and Flashbang were US agents that were turned by someone else and blew up in the faces of US intelligence.
Given the way this administration lies and shifts the blame to the innocent, this double-agent possibility sounds better and better the more the administration tries to blame the Ruskies.
Not that they were acting under US control when they planted the bombs, just that they were given protection and possibly help by the US to act against Russia, and then maybe they turned to Al Qaeda without the US agency that was running them being aware of it.
