He didn't. There was a team of guys that pulled this off. Given there were uniformed officials on the scene running a bomb drill, guys in fatigue pants with black backpacks, and multiple pictures floating around of all this; it all points to a false flag honestly and that usually means a team.
Come on do you really think Obama would pull this stunt? For what?

This was a gunpowder or blackpoder bomb, not yuour standard preassure cooker bomb that you see from AQ, analysis has also shown that it was scraped so it comes from firework, this is low class domestic stuff, prepared in a few days and typical of local non organized terrorism.

Interesting. I hadn't heard that before.

And I'm thinking d@mn, that's a lot of time consuming work unless they've got fireworks much bigger than we have down here (and I'm pretty sure they don't).

A bunch of mortars or 500 gram repeaters you'd have tons of powder very quickly. Doesn't make sense though when you can just buy it by the jug.

He [Bill Ayers] is a leftist so don't count on it. Some of these guys only believe that "evil Conservatives" can do this.

seriously...stfu moron. You never heard the name Bill Ayers until the above wise and beautiful woman started flapping her unread gums about him a few years ago.

Hell, you weren't yet even a handful of recessive traits developing in your mother's womb when Bill Ayers was around.

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

Investigators appearing on various channels, regarding various events occurring over periods of years have repeated one thing: You approach a 'coincidental' thing as related, you can always disprove a connection later.

I.e., Since AQ has used these before, has published instructions on how to build them and has encouraged people to use them, to treat that connection as valid is S.O.P. until you can disprove it.

Boston Marathon? What's that got to do with Islam? Absolutely nothing.

AQ, through their magazine Inspire, has been recommending bombing sports events for quite some time now. They also recommend amusement parks and other areas that have nothing to do with Islam. The point is to spread fear, that's why they recommend those venues.

Ahh, makes perfect sense now, when using something as slow burning as gunpowder you have to contain the pressure a bit to make it go boom. If they were using something that burned quicker, like ANFO, would using a pressure cooker increase the yield as well?

I believe another characteristic sought by bombers is that the pressure cooker allows to you to shape, or force the blast in a certain direction.

Here's a clue.

http://www.clarionledger.com/articl...Republicans-voting-end-gun-control-filibuster

The Republican Senator who was sent ricin was one of the Republican Senators who voted to end the filibuster on the gun bill.

It is highly possible IMO that there's some angry gun nut from Miss who did the bombing in response to the gun bill. Given the simplicity of the bomb compared to previous Al-Queda efforts, I'd bet it's a lone wolf who read it up on the internet, planted bombs.

Remember,

1. last mile dedicated to newtown

2. all 26 miles seen as significant as that's the casualties.

3. takes attention away from guns

4. Boston, tax day, original American revolution.

Not that I know, I'm certainly not claiming that I do, but this line of argument that the bombing was done by pro-gun nuts makes the least sense to me.

So, the Newtown people get a lot of sympathy and as a result people support anti-gun efforts. You counter that by blowing them up? WTH? That would just give them even more sympathy. That makes no sense to me.

Also the Newtown/Sandy hook people were seated in the grandstands. The bombs didn't even target the grandstands.

Why would patriots/pro-gun nuts target even target Boston? What happened in Boston is something they would seem to honor and revere. I don't understand why they would attack it, and of all days on Patriot Day? WTH?

I can't recall pro-gun nuts ever bombing anything either. And no anti-gun legislation has even passed, or appears likely to.

It was an angry Boston Bruins fan mad over the botched Jerome Iginla trade last month.

My money is on the creepy dude. The only question I have is how did he carry 2 backpacks?

Wait, no way is it this guy.

Spidey said it's definitely is muslim, islamist and whatever other racial and/or racist slurs he added along w\ it.

Can't be creepy old white guy as I suggested was likely w\ my previous post in which I linked pictures of mcveigh and kazinsky.

stop right there. I see you are attempting to ascribe sensible thought to an individual--regardless of politics or reason--that would blow up innocent people.

speculation of whether or not their response is a "sensible" end to their means, in your or anyone's interpretation, is completely useless.

Surely you are just being sarcastic.

Honestly, the photos showing the creepy old man look convincing.

And yet, that's exactly what those claiming it was pro-gun or anti-govt nuts are attempting to do.

"Sensible" is the wrong too. We're looking for some (twisted) logic. And along those lines, all terrorist attacks we've seen have had some.

Fern

seriously? you actually wonder why staunchly rightest conservatives would ever attack the mecca of liberal thought in this country? The liberal Northeast?

The home of the ebil Kennedies?

The home of gay marriage?
etc etc?

not that I'm arguing that these are the culprits, I just think your logical centers are misfiring in an attempt to deny something that you hope to not be true, despite very clear and plausible connections.

well, you agree, then, that it's twisted logic, so stop trying to make sense of it when the person is obviously twisted.

it's clear that you are more concerned that it is not someone that might share some interests with you (pro gun), than it is the right person.

What clear and plausible connections are these?

What is clear is the target is the usual for muslim terrorists.
The bomb is the usual for muslim terrorists
This kind of attack has been called for for years by muslim terrorists, in fact they tried before in New York but it fizzled.

Therefore simple logic and common sense says the likelyhood of this being the work a muslim terrorist VERY high and all others extremely low. To deny this fact is to show extreme demented bias.

Put aside your bigotry. Conservatives wouldn't do this. IF "right wing extremists" were to attack they would go after a government building not the Boston Marathon.

Try to think next time

You answered this yourself above, to spread fear.
Mistrust, chaos etc
That's what terrorism is all about.
Oklahoma made everyone freak out, not just Fed employees
Every terrorist attack gains sympathy..yet they keep coming

That doesn't further any gun nut agenda. That's a flat-out AQ agenda - the 'just spread fear'. It's what AQ advocates/encourages in it magazine etc.

Perhaps you know the radical right better than I, but I cannot remember the last time I saw anybody (other than proggy members here) the slightest bit concerned with the Kennedys. They're irrelevant today (and in prison or rehab).

"Home of gay marriage" sounds more San Fran. Anyhoo, you've switched from pro-gun nuts to an anti-gay nut theory.
