The Saudi national injured during the bomb attacks at the Boston Marathon Monday has been cleared and is no longer even a person of interest, intelligence officials told lawmakers Tuesday.
"This was a soft target. It was not a target that was able to be totally protected," he said. "This particular incident is going to cause the administration and Congress to evaluate our overall security programs around the country, particularly for major events. We can't leave it just to the communities that host these events to provide the security."

BTTT!
The puffy guy’s left arm looks funny to me. I can’t see any hand or arm extending from the sleeve.
Looks like PUFFY guy is wearing GLOVES too!
Jesus, while the crowd is wearing “shirts and jackets,” PUFFY guy is wearing...
HAT
SUNGLASSES
ARCTIC-WEIGHT COAT
GLOVES
If PUFFY guy isn’t suspicious, I don’t know who is.
Can anybody find the PHOTOS that Shoebat mentions during THIS radio interview:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKmXHhOG9AM
Shoebat keeps saying Asia Times posted photos of 3 Saudis hanging around near the finish line. Theyre definitely Saudis b/c I know what Saudis look like. And what are Saudi students doing with a BABY STROLLER anyway?
I keep searching the web, and cannot find the photos hes referring to. I want to see what these Saudis with baby stroller look like.
They could easily have concealed the pressure cooker bomb in the stroller.
Yes; the Federal Gov must again; usurp States boundaries. No doubt; this crisis will invite more Gov violations of citizens Rights. Big Sis will soon have spy - or, rather 'security' - drones; flying around at every event where more than 'three' gather for shared cause.
Do think this 'Muslim appeasing' Obama, Inc. is hiding/will hide the truth of this terrorism; for as long they can away with it; while serving themselves; by that which is NOT the truth. Reaping additional benefits per their 'scapegoating' as they do so.
We cannot doubt their habit of arrogance as they distract; delay; both truth and Justice. They certainly have their successes; all which serve ignoble - if not evil - agendas per their refashioning an America; in their damning, 'collective' image..
Obama will make him the Jihad Czar.
Example; when someone witnesses a crime; usually their first thought - just before second - is anything; but the fact that they are 'witnessing' a crime in action. Those present per this disastrous unfolding; upon hearing first blast; reacted initially; with a 'logical'/reasonable conclusion for what they heard; until 'second blast' moved them to 'threat level'.
While best case scenario was to have questioned this 'matter' in strange place; it did not beg critical attention; nor suspicion. At least not enough; for anyone to act on it.
What was lacking here; totally; appears to be 'authentic Security' on the job. Incredible; by 'oversight')
Not a nice feeling for what should be; a Agency working on behalf of the citizenry it serves; rather than one; that now serves a 'Master'.
So hope we enough good people in place. . .somewhere; and that they will make a difference. . .
Obama cut the domestic bombing prevention program by 45%. I blame him.
The regime and its “media” are hoping there will never be a suspect... how else are they going to push the narrative that the attacks were the work of TEA Partiers or some other “radical fringe group?”
After the heat dies down, Obama can go on his nationwide speaking-golf-Reggie Lovefest tour (who says he can’t multitask?) and excoriate the TEA Party and conservatives in general, while ever-so-slightly alluding to “right-wing elements having caused the bombing.
He wants the House back in communist hands in the worst way, and he’s not going to let this crisis opportunity go by without taking full advantage of it.
Saw that.. Weren’t temps in the high 60s that day? Why would a bulky coat be needed on such a day? Also, it appears his face is at least partially covered. THAT wouldn’t draw attention?
RE: Gloves
I thought about that, and I’m sure that could be why there seems to be no visible hand, but I still don’t see much of an arm coming out of the end of the sleeve, unless it is real thin and covered in dark material.
Photo’s, and particularly fuzzy blow-ups like these can be tricky to analyze. Maybe the guy has a thyroid problem and bundles up when it’s warm, and maybe there is a plausible reason the arm looks odd. It is particularly of interest since it seems to have been close to the blast site, at least according to the hotair blog.
Someone else posted the question, what about the trash can location of the bomb? If hotair has the location right, there does not seem to be a trash can there.
With the almost blackout of facts coming through the media I don’t expect any resolution of this for a long time - and probably much of it will go the way of Benghazi.
Here we go - they're trying to justify letting TSA thugs randomly "fist" 9 year old girls who are committing the crime of walking down the sidewalk with there families, or driving down the interstate to see grandma.
Way overdeessed and sporting a typical Muslim beard. And yes - he stands out like a sore thumb among that crowd.

To the back left of your thick yellow outline is a Chinese woman, about a row back. Third victim that died was a Chinese student.
Look for all the conspiracy theories to start.
Do not comply.
I second it.
