Folks,

sad news have swapped over the pond on the radio this morning: bomb explosions occurred on the Boston marathon. A number of people died and even more became injured.

My thoughts are with the victims and all those who are taking care of them and their relatives. This sneaky and mean terrorist attack clearly shows how fragile an open and free society can be - even after 12 years after the beginning of the "War On Terror" with all its consequences.

These terrorists need to be found quickly and made responsible for their ruthless actions.

I could not agree more with you frank ,i also share your sentiments as to what has happened in Boston,which i would like to add,if they find the individual or group responcible, that they string them up by the ball's aswell.

I agree but bet it is a disaffected us citizen.

We should know more soon... rumor is that an arrest has been made. Also heard that security camera across the street from one bomb site captured full face image of one person dropping off something & leaving.

Ironically I heard that a somewhat well known Israeli - also a security expert of some kind - very recently predicted that coordinated attacks on US cities would likely happen in the next several weeks.

While our "security people" have improved somewhat over the last few years, they still insist on ignoring the foremost security experts in the world (the Israelis). Even if they did, it may not have made a difference.
One terrorist is dead and his younger brother is in custody.
Hope they beat the living shyte out of him and claim it's the worst case of suicide they ever saw.

I hear a lot of claims about this outrage.
It's claimed The FBI had these men under investigation since 2011.
It's claimed that the incident is a carbon copy of level 3 in Call of Duty.
It's claimed there was a drill in progress at the time (in spite of which the terrorists went undetected- how good are drills?)
I hear no claims of reponsibility or demands from any terror group, so who's agenda is served?

No terrorists.
No agenda.
Just a couple of punks causing trouble.
And I built better pipe bombs than that when I was in 8th grade.
