timur is a big national hero in his homeland.

RB, post 2611 I recall reading a report that SAS had gamed the thing in london ...their conclusion was no police force could take such a fast moving battle and retain contact / corner etc....so initial lot of damage was certain before any such situation could be controlled. those london cops in BPJ and white well pressed shirts and MP3 look nice but may not suffice

Incidentally, for all those here who keep posting that the "police scanner named Tripathi as a suspect", I posted this way back on page 16 last night:
http://forums.bharat-rakshak.com/viewto ... 7#p1443267

There was no mention of names on the police scanner, as reported by anyone who was actually listening to it. One idiot posted on one forum "ZOMG, I've just heard the names on police scanner, Mike Mulugeta, Sunil Tripathi". In some of the more reliable forums, a lot of other members immediately contradicted that info and called posters out for trolling. However, twitter being twitter and the internet being what it is, lots of people started reposting the lie because they want to either (a) get their 15 minutes of fame or (b) confirm their own private prejudices or (c) both. And newspaper blogs stated re-posting the same cr*p too.

Unfortunately, this forum is also not immune to that disease (you know who you are).

one diff is when the cops speak their reporters listen and keep quiet, instead of trying to be oversmart, going past police lines seeking footage

The NDTV footage of interview with Fateh is revealing. Fellow first reels of attacks - Madrid, 9/11, London, Mumbai etc and says that mass attacks against innocents is a Jihadist speciality, so it is reasonable to suspect their hand in Boston.

Shivam Vij barges in and inserts a line "yes yes but in India, we have had hindoo terror attacks too!!"

The Leftist with their patronizing snobbery are partly to blame why certain sections of the society never progress.

I was just typing this - even in TSPians we need to differentiate between people like Nadeem Paracha and Fateh. I really don't know what makes people like Vij tick, or a tick.

Are there ongoing oil & gas pipeline discussions running through Chechnya. A destabilized Chechnya means US has a better chance of controlling a larger amount of the oil and gas which Russia presently dominates. What is happening now in Boston is directly benefiting the American oil and gas corporations.

Video of one of the suspect speaking in Russian that just came out.

Legit or another attempt to buy some more time?

My children were set up father claims
Two brothers of Chechen origin suspected of staging the Boston marathon bombings, one of whom has been shot dead by police, are innocent of any crime, the Interfax news agency quotes a man identified as their father as saying.

‘‘In my opinion, my children were set up by the secret services because they are practising Muslims,’’ Anzor Tsarnaev told the Interfax news agency on Friday from the North Caucasus Russian city of Makhachkala.

Anzor Tsarnaev is the father of 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was shot dead by police in Boston on Friday, and his 19-year-old brother and co-suspect Dzhokhar, who remains on the run in the area, Interfax said.

‘‘Why did they kill Tamerlan? They should have taken him alive,’’ said the father.

That's correct. In the Muslim Caucasus region, Tamerlane/Timur is a huge folk hero, and is a common first name for everyone from Uzbeks to Chechens.

Dzhokhar is better spelled as Jhakhar/Jhahar - Cyrillic has no 'J' and uses 'dz' to approximate it, just as a particular Tamil/Malayalam letter is transliterated as zha/rha.

Edit: Didn't read past and notice Singha and JEM had already covered this.
