That link proves nothing except that lots of people like to bring backpacks to marathons because support crews/family/friends need to bring supplies for those in the race: clothes, water, food, etc.

So, NO. It's has NOT been "pretty much confirmed"

From what I can only piece together is that these people were there running a drill searching for a device and other anti terror measures.
Were they feds, DHS, ATF, FBI, regular cops, military? I don't know. Were they actually tipped off there might be an attack or were they in the dark like everybody? If they were there because they thought there might be a threat, then there might be heads rolling from the foul up. Thats the impression I got, the feds got very antsy when these photos turned up with agenst right there. But the timing has to be ascertained to be fair.
Then again, if they were just running a drill, they could still have seen something unless the bombers simply arrived after they left. It looks like a SNAFU more than anything, a bad one. Still, these feds picured have to be explained, ASAP.
But the feds also like to play games and provide conspiracy theorists with false leads to discredit them and to throw them off the track while they do something else.
We have an idiot in charge of DHS, but with her paranoia you'd think they'd pick something up. The problem I guess is she's looking in the wrong directions most of the time.
Obama meets with a Saudi Prince and this goes down, the poor bozo just can't get a break.

I'm thinking they got a tip about the bomb after the race had already started. They had the choice to either try and find the bomb, hence the dogs around and maybe that is what these guys in the dress were doing, or announce there is a bomb, create panic as people would be running for the hills, and the bomber would detonate it anyway. With the race already started and thousands everywhere what do you do??

One of the characteristic wierdnesses of conspiracy theorists is that they always imagine that the conspirators are simultaneously super humanly competent and blithering idiots. Right... actual seal team members are going to wear seal team logos to commit a false flag operation.

You guys believe the most idiotic stuff.

Sorry, this is 2013. You just can't hide something like that anymore. It is impossible.

Don't you think if it were a conspiracy, inside job, they wouldn't, I don't know, wear clothing identifying themselves as SEALS?
