“......Junior said the brothers associated with what appeared to be wealthy foreign students who drove fancy cars

Interesting... “

Very, I wonder why they were trying to get that Saudi national deported. He was from the family of a wealthy Saudi family.

I wonder if they are going to follow the money on this one or just stop before the Royal Saudi family is exposed?

I am so glad that the Saudi nationals are trusted travelers and don't have to put up with all the border screening that people from other countries must face! (/Sarcasm)

Have they blamed the sequester yet?

Hoyer: Republican Sequester Caused the Boston Marathon Deaths Fox News Channel (no link) | 4/16/13

Posted on Tuesday, April 16, 2013 10:52:43 AM by pabianice

Democrats, including Hoyer, today blamed the Boston Marathon bombings on the Republicans. According to them, the Republican Sequester so damaged our intelligence community that it caused the Marathon bombers to get away with it.

They couldn't wait 24 hours before saying it...

Most hilarious thing ever is that the carjack victim had a "Coexist" sticker on his car...

Now imagine what 50 ‘two punk teams’, spread all across America, could do.

Recall that the DC Sniper(s) were a 2-person team.

If these two animals were hanging out with rich foreign students, as is alleged by the mechanic who worked on their Mercedes, why did they need to rob the 7-11? By the way, nice job laying low you two jackasses!

Had the volume turned down and could only hear the angry tone of what was being aired, so naturally I figured it was Obama fuming about not being able to take guns away or something...

Snipers Watertown #wcvb http://pbs.twimg.com/media/BIOPl7BCEAAUxGV.jpg

16.31 (11.31) Mark Oliver from our Graphics team has put together a graphic timeline of last night's dramatic events in Watertown. Have a look.

Boston Marathon bombers: timeline since FBI photo release

16.45 (11.45) Let's have a round-up from David Blair.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, a 19-year-old described as “armed and highly dangerous” is the target of a manhunt covering Boston and the surrounding area, where about one million people live.

His elder brother, Tamelan, 26, was killed by police in a firefight that rocked the suburb of Watertown in the early hours of Friday morning.

The two brothers, who are believed to be ethnic Chechens from southern Russia, are accused of planting the bombs that claimed three lives at the Boston Marathon on Monday.

Hours after police released photographs of the Tsarnaevs on Thursday, they “received reports of shots fired” at 10.20pm local time on the campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, according to a police statement.

Perhaps fearing discovery, the Tsarnaev brothers appear to have shot a police officer multiple times inside his vehicle, killing him instantly.

Police responded by sweeping the MIT campus, which has about 11,000 students. People were ordered to stay indoors and avoid the Stata building, which houses faculty offices and classrooms.

After killing the policeman, however, the brothers escaped from MIT by hijacking a passing car on Third Street in Cambridge. The driver was held at gunpoint for about half an hour and then released unharmed at a petrol station.

Police then located the car and pursued it to Watertown, a suburb on the western edge of Boston about 10 miles from the city centre. During the chase, the Tsarnaevs and the pursuing police officers opened fire, wagingi a fierce gun battle.

Update, 11:47 a.m. EST: Foreign Policy has put together a useful guide to Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s favorite YouTube videos.

Update, 10:37 a.m. EST: TheDC’s Patrick Howley has put together all we currently know about Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the now-dead Boston Marathon bombing suspect. He “was a student at Bunker Hill Community College and a Golden Gloves boxer who trained at Wai Kru mixed martial arts gym in Boston and competed in a national Golden Gloves competition.” He also described himself as a “very religious” Muslim.

Update, 10:20 a.m. EST: The now-deceased bombing suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, apparently posted a video touting an Al Qaeda-linked “prophesy.”

Why would connected, well-heeled jihadis hit up a 7-11?
