According to CNN

Quote:
[Update, 8:36 p.m. ET] Investigators have warned law enforcement officers to be on the lookout for a "darker-skinned or black male" with a possible foreign accent in connection with Monday's bombings at the Boston Marathon, according to a law enforcement advisory obtained by CNN.
The man was seen with a black backpack and sweatshirt and was trying to get into a restricted area about five minutes before the first explosion, the lookout notice states.

Speaking of "mis-information"...

Working off memory but I don't think Al Qaeda immediately took responsibility for 9/11. It came days or weeks later.

I don't know about "credit", or how long it takes for one of these groups to announce it--we don't know if a group has claimed credit for it, and if the WH is simply witholding that info before sending everyone into a frenzy. Once the WH goes down that road, there is no turning back the dogs of war, and they know it. But overall the motive and coordination are similar to other terrorist bombings. I guess it will come down to whether this person of interest' actually had to do something with it.

Not as naive as you. You just made something up out of the clear blue sky to make that fool in the WH not seem like the doofus he is.



That's all.

Explosions rock Boston Marathon finish line; dozens injured - Metro - The Boston Globe

The official count now is 3 dead including an 8 year old boy and at least 140 people injured. I hope they find out who is responsible for this horrible act.

I wonder if this is connected to tax day or the anniversary of OKC bombing next week.
