FOX or CNN is the source for most of us. I would presume.

On a second thought, they should try using a mild tranquilizer to catch the suspect alive. Depends if the suspect realizes it and provided is not wearing a explosive vest.

Takes me 2 hours to go through that many at the practice range (includes re-load and socializing). Ofcourse its a practice range using a 9mm. I can only imagine the chaos.

Good morning folks.

Is it still on?

The forces of jihad have outdone themselves.

10 men shut down parts of Mumbai for 3 days.

Now one man does the same to parts of Boston for 2 days.

Let me apply for some Paki forum to celebrate this victory

It's like the Fugitive:

Listen up, ladies and gentlemen! Our fugitive has been on the run for ninety minutes. Average foot speed over uneven ground barring injuries is 4 miles per hour and that gives us a radius of... six miles. What I want out of each and every one of you is a hard-target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in that area. Checkpoints go up at fifteen miles. Your fugitive's name is Doctor Richard Kimble. Go get him.

Yes...because flash bangs so many could mean tear gas shells...flash bangs after one are ineffective according to him

Google earth picture of the house where the younger bomber is holed up.
The boat that he is hiding in presumably wearing a suicide vest is also visible.

Apparently the Russians warned Unkil about the older brother MORE THAN TWO YEARS AGO re his jihadi connections. The FBI investigated him, visited his house, spoke to the family and had surveillance etc. for a while and determined that he was not a threat.

And all this despite the super aggressive US FBI/NSA/CIA monitoring of US Muslims for 10+ years.

I have been wondering about the Pakistanis and the Chechens.
It looks like the Pakistanis have been training the Chechens to cause trouble in Russia for a while. That Pressure cooker bomb is the Pakis trademark I would say.
Draw your conclusions, there are several crollaries to this story.
Did massa turned a blind eye to these suspects two years ago, since these guys were involved with terrorism against Russia in Chechnea / Dagestan.
Just as massa ignores terrorism against India.

But at the end of the day, a terrorist is a terrorist. And terrorists need to be taken out by all concerned.
This is very sad.

Prediction: He will kill himself rather than be caught. Then the real background will be more difficult to detect - especially who taught them how to make cooker bombs.
