Obviously, we are all well aware of the tragic terrorist acts which marred the Boston Marathon. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who lost their life and those who have forever been negatively impacted by the actions of these terrorists.
However, the aftermath of the event has been quite confusing and with all the scandals engulfing the Obama administration, it is hard for the public to keep their eye on the ball. Heck, we don't even know what game we are playing.
While the authorities chased down the publicly know suspects, a major US city was in lock down. It was the Tsarnaev brothers, Chechen immigrants, with the older brother killed in a shootout and the younger brother, after being identified by a private citizen, having been captured in cuddy cabin boat on a trailer in the yard of a suburban Boston home. Tsarnaev is awaiting trial.
It is over, and the bad guys have been caught and are off the street. All is good; nothing to see here. Not so fast my friend.
Where did it all begin? One of the aforementioned scandals had to do with the National Security Agency spying, without warrant, on all Americans in the name of prohibiting our nation from being hit again by terrorists. As Benjamin Franklin so eloquently said, "They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety". Even though reports have the Russian government warning us about the brothers Tsarnaev, with the federal government spying on the citizenry with high tech surveillance, it did nothing to stop terrorism from striking our streets, literally, in Boston.
That ole Franklin was a real gem.
Although we are not aware of any intelligence gathered from surveillance tactics, there were significant clues something was up.
On September 11, 2011, a vicious homicide took place in the area in which the Tsarnaev brothers resided, with the victim having been a close friend of the older Tsarnaev brother. The case remained unsolved, but it is noteworthy that news reports indicate Tsarnaev did not attend the funeral. That type of behavior should have raised some suspicion.
Only after the bombing investigation got going did the authorities stumble upon the obvious; that mounting evidence suggested Tsarnaev brothers were involved in the grisly killing.
In the weeks prior to the Boston bombing over in Hanover, nearby the area the Tsarnaev brothers and their friends lived, came news reports of two recent incidents where homemade explosives were detonated. At the first location, it was noted that witnesses at the nearby Target store on Washington Street reported seeing a bright flash and hearing two explosions from that area. The local news report noted that several unexploded devices were found at the scene and later detonated under secure conditions by the State Police Bomb Squad. Obviously, these were dry runs.
On the day after the bombing, a series of photographs were published on the internet. I became aware of the pictures from a Facebook post by FOX News Eric Bolling, and you can see the entire portfolio of photos HERE.
These photos are very interesting indeed. Several potential suspects, most carrying backpacks, are seen in the screen shots. I am particularly interested in the picture presented below. The first is a photo of the immediate aftermath of the bombing, and something peculiar is quite noticeable. Standing right beyond the start finish line are two men dressed in similar attire who appear stationary and not at all fazed by what has occurred. Take a look.
A closer inspection of the photo, zoomed in below, shows two men hiding backpacks apparently engaged in some form of communication. Certainly, to engage in identification of these men would be speculative, but it does appear the man on the left is the older Tsarnaev brother. However, it is clear that the other individual is not the younger Tsarnaev brother. Take a look.
To gain clearer perspective, an opportunity a better look exists. Click here for full resolution image.
If we assume the individual on the left is in fact the older Tsarnaev brother, who is the individual on the right? Although some friends of the Tsarnaev brothers have been arrested on lesser charges, none resembled this man.
The authorities have informed the public there are no outstanding suspects related to the bombings, but regardless if the man pictured on the left is the older Tsarnaev brother or not, these two men are reacting unlike most everyone else pictured, which at a minimum raises suspicion.
I have not heard anything in the media about who these two men, and particularly the one pictured at right, are. I would like to know. Oh well, nothing to see here. Move on.
In the immediate aftermath of the bombings, new reports suggested a man who had been hospitalized with injuries likely sustained at the bombing. The injuries were described as consistent with someone who was not injured from the bombing, but participatory in implementing the bombing.
Respectable journalists over at CNN reported the news, labeling the suspect as a Saudi Arabian. Seemingly due to political correctness, the reports were retracted. CNN promptly regretted the error, but I conclude there was no error. John King has been at this a long time and he would not recklessly report such a thing, and Fran Townsend has a credible reputation as well. CNN may be publicly apologizing for the error, but there was no error. Wonder who got to these guys?
The story of the error has no credibility because the problem is that this individual actually exists, and The Blaze, among others, did extensive reporting on this individual. The young man had been classified by our government as very dangerous, as The Blaze reports.
In what appeared as a stunning jailbreak of lemmings, the media quickly retracted that this individual, complete with burned hands, was not a suspect at all. In fact, although there was no official recognition of the event, pictures indicate Michelle Obama visited him in the hospital. Reports now suggest he was deported and will not face further interrogation on the subject. Just lovely.
With the propaganda arm of the Obama administration, the mainstream media, having dropped the subject from the daily news reel, the American people lost focus on the subject as a slew of scandals suffocated the Obama administration.
With the dust seemingly settled came news of a rather startling event just north of Boston. On May 14th, patrols were stepped up after seven chemical engineering students were caught trespassing at the Quabbin Reservoir. As CBS Boston reports, State Police say the five men and two women are from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore, and “cited their education and career interests” for being in the area. The men told police they were chemical engineers and recent college graduates.
No charges were to be filed against the trespassers, but that did not sit well with Glenn Beck.
After the early and prompt decision not to charge the trespassers, Massachusetts Police are appealing that decision. The reservoir, which provides the city of Boston their drinking water, was accurately deemed "critical infrastructure" and thus the Mass. Police found charges were appropriate. It should be noted the trespassers included adults, five men and two women, who were from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Singapore.
Common sense would have you believe the authorities within and surrounding Boston would be on high alert given these wide ranging events with terroristic suspicion. We are unable to conclude that after learning what took place at the Boston Aqueduct on June 3.
Three padlocks to hatches were cut at the Boston aqueduct, which supplies water to greater Boston. Seemingly oblivious to the previous incidents, CBS Boston reports State Police are investigating, though they say “there is no evidence of any crime other than vandalism.” Nothing to see here.
While the events following the Boston Marathon bombing may be isolated incidents with no relation to the terroristic acts of the bombing, my tolerance for coincidence expired a long time ago. In addition, there are several unanswered and troubling aspects regarding the bombing that have not been adequately addressed.
Obviously, our government values their relationships with countries and groups that harbor terrorists. While questions regarding Boston remain unanswered, the administration aims to engage in assisting in weaponizing terrorists in Syria and welcomes terrorists into The White House.
Goodwill is quickly contracting globally, and with the United States in decline due to weak leadership and financial constraints, a significant event could catapult Uncle Sam into a very perilous position. Such an event could well be financial, but it certainly could be the actions of terrorists, or both.
Before discounting the events in Boston, recognize those who carried out the events of September 11, 2001 were not Rhodes Scholars. It would be prudent to remain vigilant.
