Like the WTC, a marathon, and THIS marathon in particular is vastly international in scope. AQ V2013 New & Improved? This is also much like Times Square, which was thwarted.

The white smoke makes me think it was a gun powder based bomb. Possibly black powder but probably not.

NY Post is reporting that they have a suspect in costody in a Boston hospital. I hope they waterboard him.

As other posters have said, if they were using cell phones, they might not have been able to get through to the other devices to set them off. They might have succeeded with the second one, but if my hypothesis is correct, decided to hightail it out of there.
I am about 10 miles from Boston right now, and I know it was swamped and calls couldn’t get connected nearly immediately, though repeated tries worked. I work with a woman who tried for about an hour, and just managed to connect with her daughter a few minutes ago who works over on Newbury street, just a couple of streets over.

A suspect has been ID’d. He’s in the hospital. Failed suicide bombing? Is his name Akmed or Mohammed?

NY Post is reporting that they have a suspect in costody in a Boston hospital. Dear Lord, let this be true. Amen.

OK so two went off, a third was blown up by EOD and now there’s two more for a total of five. Do I have that right?

I don't know if it means anything but I remember a few days after 911 there was a large SWAT team in Boston and they raided a hotel in the downtown area. I don't remember the outcome. The Feds & news media can't lie about this event. Those are horrific injuries. Those bombs were made to kill and maim.

Hope that is not related, but it is weird timing.
Thanks to all for the replies.
To: driftdiver
More likely an unrelated fire.

To: dfwgator
They’ll ask the suspect where he got blasting materials and he’ll say “Wal-Mart”.. Sporting goods section.. Ammo cases.. Time to ban all ammo sales!!
To: AppyPappy
Or blow one to get all the cameras pointed that way, then blow the other so there’s no denying what happened, ala 911.
