The "burned hands" issue is one of those rumors that popped up in the days after the bombing (when there were all sorts of rumors flying around), and people seem to have latched on to it, despite a lack of evidence. It just doesnt make sense:

1) The pictures of the Saudi taken in the days after the bombing show no burns on his hands. Burns, particularly severe burns, don't heal that quickly;

2) In the pictures, he had an IV in his hand. If his hands were, in fact, burned, the medical staff would have inserted the IV elsewhere; and

3) What would "burned hands" even prove? That he was so close to the bomb--holding it, perhaps--that his hands were burned? Because, if he was close enough to the bomb that his hands were burned from the blast, he likely wouldn't have survived the blast, and even if he did, there would have been a whole lot of other damage in the pictures (shrapnel, etc.)

**************************************
Photo’s of Saudi suspect with Wookie#1 show no evidence of burns to the hands , no bandages , no discoloration , no salve, no IV drip .. his hands look like NORMAL hands .. and he is seen using his hands for normal functions that would be VERY painful if he was burned.
