Two dead, dozens injured after explosions at Boston Marathon



BOSTON (AP) -- Two bombs exploded near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing two people, injuring 23 others and sending authorities rushing to aid wounded spectators. A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other explosive devices were found nearby.

One runner, a Rhode Island state trooper, said the blasts tore limbs off dozens of people. As smoke rose over the glass-strewn street, bloody spectators were carried to the medical tent that had been set up to care for fatigued runners.

Will it be an Arab, North Korean or white gun owner?

A Saudi National is the suspect, who was found suffering from shrapnel wounds. Sounds like someone put 2 and 2 together and got 5.

This is interesting though...

University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach, who was near the finish line of the Boston Marathon when a series of explosions went off, said he thought it was odd there were bomb sniffing dogs at the start and finish lines.

“They kept making announcements on the loud speaker that it was just a drill and there was nothing to worry about,” Coach Ali Stevenson told Local 15. “It seemed like there was some sort of threat, but they kept telling us it was just a drill.”

Stevenson had just finished the marathon

Why would the perp have shrapnel wounds when he's the only one who would know there were IEDs? oh because he's also an idiot ok case solved. They actually have surveillance tape on this on so for once it might have been an actual independent terrorist not even coached by the FBI. note my sarcasm.

The key thing here with the bomb sniffing dogs is the word drill. What I find hilarious is that our government lies so much about terrorism that no one can full tilt just believe that's what happened. Just based on new reports from tv. Everyone is searching the details combing it from mistakes. That's how terrible our state is.

Not two bombings, not dual bombings, but twin bombings... to remind you all of twin towers.

I saw some runners drinking water while running. Water is the official drink of the Illuminati!

i wouldnt jump to conclusions on this one. i saw the prison planet/natural news image of the twitter feed and it looks as if this tweet came out after the tweet for the explosions. so i am guessing it is describing the detonation of unexploded suspicious packages.

and having some dogs there could just be standard security. and them saying it was a drill could have been just lies to calm the crowd. so lets not jump to conclusions on this until we know more.
