It's possible that an agent of Iran did this in retaliation against the US for the assassination of nuclear scientists.

There are countless people in that region who we've made enemies of, there's just no getting around it.
Maybe we should drone strike more innocent men, women, and children in the middle east to retaliate.
What does the pressure cooker do for the bomb? Why not use a plain old pot instead? Is it necessary to trap some gases inside?
Richard Barrett, the former United Nations co-ordinator for the al-Qaeda and Taliban monitoring team, said it was too early to say who was to blame for the blasts.
But Barrett, who has served with MI5, MI6 and the British Foreign Office, said the timing of the attack on Patriots' Day and the relatively small size of the devices suggested the work of a domestic extremist.
Barrett, who is now senior director at the Qatar International Academy for Security Studies (QIASS), said: "At the moment it looks more likely that it was a right-wing terrorist incident, rather than an al Qaeda attack because of the size of the devices."
He added: "This happened on Patriots' Day, it is also the day Americans are supposed to have their taxes in, and Boston is quite a symbolic city. These are all little indicators."
Professor Greg Barton from Monash University's Centre for Islam and the Modern World said there were "two big possibilities" of who was behind the attacks.
"There's been at least 50 attempted terror plots since 9/11 in the US, almost all of them have been jihadi groups, but the fact that no-one’s claiming responsibility for this attack, which took place on Patriots' Day - the day that marks the beginning of the American revolution in Boston - and the nature of the device means that the possibility of a home-grown group, somebody like Timothy McVeigh the Oklahoma City bomber who also detonated on Patriots' Day in April 1995, is a strong possibility," he told 3AW Radio in Melbourne.
Prof Barton said the bombs were "essentially homemade grenades".
At first I was leaning more towards Islamic terrorists, as time goes on I am leaning more toward right wing fundamentalists,

If it were "right wing fundamentalists" then they wouldn't attack the Boston Marathon but a government building. This has been repeated in the thread.
Why does the media continue to ignore the exact same type of bomb has been attempted by muslim terrorists in the US?
It's mind boggling. They have this narrative of "well, this is some special device we've never seen before so it must be white right wing people" when that is a flat out lie. We've seen this before, in the US, and every time it was muslim terrorists!
You get that off a Islamic terrorist website?
Where are you guys getting all this current info on American right wing terrorist cells?
Freepers? JhiadWatch? Stormfront? P&N?
How does a guy go about reading up on their plans?

Screw you jihadist.
Why yes, it's from your homeland of Canucklestan.

I am not the one always making excuses for radicals. In all of my threads you always attack me first.
Because only a simpleton would assume just because a group used a specific weapon in the past it must be them.
Most Fox News loyalists would buy that

I'm talking about your whole transparent internet facade, not just that one post.
You're a hack and a fraud. Just thought you should be aware you fool no one.
Same to you buddy
A pressure cooker is air-tight. I'm guessing that helps the explosion somehow.
If a simpleton would draw logical conclusions about very similar bombs used by muslim terrorists in the US and around the world then what would that make one who draws conclusions to a specific group without ANY suggesting facts or evidence?
A highly biased idiot ignoring facts and reality, that's what.
I've got no idea who is behind it, not going to speculate, but dude, the whole pressure cooker thing is not the brilliant work of Islamic Extremist, that idea has been around since ....pressure cookers.
