It's pretty amazing that no civilians were injured in that shootout. Pretty much every house on that block ended up with bullet damage in the interior according to reports.

Just said on CNN that white hat told the FBI that no foreign groups were involved in the bombing and that they were self-radicalized and did the bombing to "protect Islam". How that bombing accomplished that I have no fucking clue.

I read a nice comment about conspiracy theorists that explains the true believers. Aside from "they're crazy", what it is really about is simple validation. "I"m so much smarter than everyone else that I figured this out within four seconds of hearing it on the news, look at me I'm so smart. I pity all these stupid people who don't see the truth." Look at everything they ever post and you will find that statement in there somewhere. Usually something like "well, myself and other critical thinkers know that blah blah and if you can't see that you are simple-minded sheeple and I feel sorry for you."

Of course, the exact same method is a pretty effective troll, too. The "I'm smart you are dumb" line is just terrific bait.

They are truly sad and pathetic.

Also, when the innocent brothers found out they were the suspects, they just happened to stumble upon a cache of guns and home made explosives. They panicked, it happens. Perhaps the arsenal was planted there and when they discovered it they felt they had no choice but grab what they could and start lobbing bombs at the police. Or maybe the entire police force was in on the gig and used hollywood effects to simulate explosions, and the "injured" police was all actors or self-inflicted wounds. As you dig deeper and deeper it all just seems more and more likely. WAKE UP SHEEPLE.

PS: Bush used explosives to blow up tower 7, the one that no planes hit, because he figured that wouldn't look strange at all and would be easily explained to any layman should they question it. Only blowing up the big towers that the planes hit just wouldn't have been good enough to make people hate muslims and Saddam Hussein. Also, the use of Saudi nationals backed by terrorists from Pakistan and Afghanistan to trick us into supporting a war against Iraq (wtf?) was the master stroke of the plan.

Some guy on Pete Dominick's show this morning was, in essence, saying there is a conspiracy implicating the FBI and the news media because they won't show any video of either of them ACTUALLY DROPPING THE BACKPACK ON THE GROUND.

Of course the guy doesn't believe he is a conspiracy theorist, he's just asking the question.

Somebody had to be feeding his mind with radical shit either here in this country or his motherland. I mean, its not like someone picks up the Koran one day and becomes a radical Muslim bent on destroying all the infidels.

The FBI stole their backpacks, put bombs in them, planted them, and then casually strolled away from the explosions without a fuck given. I'm convinced.

Considering Araysar is probably from the same hometown as these guys, we also need to consider what Araysar knew and when did he know it? It was really suspicious that he kept saying it was going to be radical, conservative white guys and then suddenly it was radical conservative white guys from his old home country.

NBC Nightly News ran a segment yesterday from Dagastan where they interviewed an aunt who said the older brother was very religious when he came to visit last year and visited a mosque everyday that "they" believe has ties to radical Islam.

Just curious, but why wouldn't they? The FBI said they had video of exactly that, but didn't release it. Just makes no sense why they wouldn't? If there's a valid reason why you wouldn't then why would you say that you had it in the first place if you had no intention of showing it?

because its evidence?

How do you have a fair trial if everyone in the country believes you are guilty because you already saw the evidence?

I hope they do a thorough job vetting the jurors. Hung jury because of some conspiracy theorist fuckwit that refuses to even look at the real evidence because it would contradict his theory and thus ruin his sense of validation? Holy shit.

lol. Thats at least 4 posters from Fall River/New Bedford area. That is kind of weird, considering New Bedford and Fall River are considered "small cities" (90k pop or so).
