And you really cannot analyze how a person behaves after being that close to an explosion. Shell shock can disorientate you.

These are the people I would be looking into.

Notice the apparent weight of the bag. Also notice the bottom of the backpack, and how there appears to be something somewhat pointy sticking out? Maybe the top of a pressure cooker?

salon.com and liberals are deeply saddened that at least one of the bombers is a person of color but surely understand his grievances against our rasist society

al Qaeda is in Mali, remember?

and Libya has a lot of Africans

and there are some other very dark skinned Yemenis and Saudis, Bengalis, etc ...also Somalis

remember the al Qaeda underpants bomber that tried to kill a planeload of people on Christmas Day while John Brennan was skiing? Nigerian

surely there are also US many races who have become muslims and radicalized ones ... prisons have become muslim recruiting ground, universities too

Ha! Brian Williams can be considered a dark skinned guy. He’s looking like George Hamilton!

Looks like the guy in the white hat is resting his bag in front of him.

It’s not them, this photo was taken 4 hours before the attack. They’ve been cleared.

NO BAG = he is holding the daypack in front.

Yup they looked odd, but bombers don’t hang around for hours and the timers were one hour cooking timers. They would have had to arm the bombs while there.

Both are wearing 5:11 Tactical clothing and desert boots. The Skull Logo on the balck hat looks like the the Logo CHris Kyle’s company uses as it is the “Enforcer Skull” and looks like the word “Craft” in the right font is on the skull.

Here’s the company website. I’ve seen that logo alot, and bad guys don’t wear it.

There is a Syrian Muslim doctor here that looks whiter than I and I am fair and have blue eyes. He is the only Muslim I know.

I would say most are Mediterranean looking, with olive complexions. So are Italians, Spaniards, Greeks, Yugoslavs, Iraelis, and many French etc And all those people would self identify as white.

“MP5s in the backpacks? Seems reasonable.”

Correct. We’re on same wavelength.

However I think MP5’s are under the jackets. They’ve got “something” crammed in there making them look fatter than Napolitano.

I was thinking Kevlar vests under the jackets, MP5s and other gear in the backpacks.

Those two creeps? One of them wearing the ear phone?

To me, they stood out like a sore thumb.

Looks like a poor job at being an under-cover cop. If I WAS a cop and saw someone in the crowd with a backpack that big, I would have rousted him. Thus, I think he was a cop.

Baloney. Those ARE the suspects the FBI are focusing on.

He's wearing the sunglasses in the photo on left.

Attention to detail. This ain't rocket science.
