Surprisingly, the first post related to the Boston Bombings appeared in AppleCentral Forums earlier today for the first time since the date of the blasts.

The manhunt has taken place and ended and we and the whole nation have been accepting the MSM info without any need to question the version and scope of what information we are receiving. There are, however, further informations starting to come out that talk about an apparent blackout of details that complicate the MSM coverage.

Today i found two articles that talk about some of the consequences and/or manipulations of the event as seen by international news and opinion, that go further than the suspects' mother's claim of a setup we already know of.

Here are the article links for those interested:

Boston blasts won't revive US-Russia reset

The FBI Boston-Chechnya charade

crazy What else could you expect from one of my posts? smile

You need to visit the Lounge once and a while.

The Boston bombings were not viewed as political and the discussion was outside of the Soapbox.

Why should there be any effect on US ties with Russia? In effect, Russia tipped off the FBI about the elder brother, so if there was a slip up, it was in the US, not in Russia. And in any case, from what I understand, there was no slip up. The FBI investigated as Russia had asked, found that the elder brother had no criminal activity, and that was it. I for one do not want the FBI to think that it has open license to become the panopticon of America, watching everyone all the time. The second article, the "charade" one, is just nonsense. There is no assertion of an international terrorist cabal, not because there may not be one, but because there's at this point no evidence of one. Do you really want an agency like the FBI to go around making accusations without having solid evidence? As I recall, that's what Bush and his cronies did when they conspired to have us invade Iraq--and look how well that turned out. In short, both articles are not worth the paper they're not written on.

At least a little due diligence before mounting your high, high horse:

Thread 1

Thread 2

Thread 3

Here's even a thread on the Texas fertilizer plant explosion, which I'm pretty sure is a UN/FEMA conspiracy ...

That West, TX explosion? It's a conspiracy by the Earth Day Consortium working together with the Obama administration to put a stop to all farming in the US except what's done "al punto del culo." clicky. Just change to "to" to "at."

It was fascinating in the days following the bombing to see how the internet sleuths speculated on practically everything. This speculation was based on photos before & after the explosions, not just Beck-like Saudi fixations … The huge quantity of images and videos out in the wild quickly was distilled down to a few dozen photos of guys near the scene carrying backpacks big enough to hold a pressure cooker bomb. I don't know if the Reddit crowd actually picked out the real bombers, but the crowd-sourcing effort was impressive (although wrong).

But now there's more and more speculation about connections to these terrorists … and some seem like the FBI would be all over stuff like this:

http://jesterscourt.cc/2013/04/23/boston-marathon-bombing-just-a-hunch/


So, if the army of Reddit-type crime solvers is so quick (only a couple of days) to identify specific "suspects" within crowds out of the thousands of photos out there … why don't they apply the same effort to filter the internet for Youtube bomb-making, terrorist networking and Jihad recruiting videos? Identify who is linking to these things. Give this information to the FBI, I'm sure they won't mind.

Would'nt it be great if world-class hackers like 'Anonymous' save the world by taking down all this terrorism information? I know, this is the real world, but it's likely to be a bit Max Headroom too.
