Boston Bombing Suspects
News broke this morning that the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing hail from a Russian region near Chechnya, and they are brothers Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, the same town where yesterday they executed a cop with a bullet to the head.
Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, the so-called Suspect No. 2, remains alive and is the subject of a massive manhunt in an around Watertown, Massachusetts. Tamerlan, Suspect No. 1, was reportedly shot by cops during a fierce firefight in the streets of Watertown, during which the brothers set off explosives and gravely wounded another cop. Tamerlan later died after reportedly being run over by Dzhokhar as he escaped.
The Boston area is on lockdown, with residents forced to remain indoors while hundreds of agents hunt the terrorist suspect Dzhokhar. Schools are closed and transit is shut down. There is strong suspicion that the brothers had accomplices.

Yes, i like him,, Mr.Obama
But we don't know the scenario yet, but he had different way to manage this kind of problems, ~Bush would be faster choosing an Arab country loool.
I only wish to see Justice whatever it was.
Cheers!
Their family and friends are still under shock as they had no history of any such violence. He was a bright student and was awarded an scholarship for his studies.
They killed the suspects without sanity check who knows he might also have been psychologically ill like the person in Colorado who shot 12. Anyway if we human being fail to bring justice God will bring it.
Regardless of his land, race religion and faith I strongly condemn the acts of terrorism...Religions taught us to be kind and to love each other.
Lol Sulieman, you are thinking of the Bush era, when Roger Ailes and Fox News dictated foreign and domestic policy.
Obama isn't so stupid, thankfully.
fubar ,,, such a bad news !!!
that mean i can't celebrate anymore :)
We are all waiting for the "on Target" country, is it KSA this time.... do they have to say Goodbye to Petrol ?
Don't worry Sulieman, Fox News in America will still make this about Arabs.
The latest angle on the story (according to them....) is that there was a Saudi man who was involved but who is being deported to avoid any scrutiny and embarrassment a out his supposed involvement. No doubt it will all turn out to be exaggerated or just totally wrong, but in the meantime it will allow redneck America to continue believing that this is all about Islam and Arabs.
No matter how much evidence will be produced to the contrary, some people have already made up their minds about who was responsible and what was their motivation.
Meanwhile poor Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi is having his name and photos splashed all over the press by people desperate to tie this to someone from Saudi.
Hahaha, yall strongly condemn all such acts...because you support terrorism lol... get a grip
Antwerp
I am still feeling sorry for whom died, but Yes it was really nice knowing that he is not Arab this time
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died in the shootout. He was wearing explosives and a triggering device when he died, a source briefed on the investigation told CNN.
There will of course be many fair and open minded just people out there who will not go into unfair generalizations and discrimination, but yes there will be a significant portion who will do so.
Yes as always a majority will suffer due to the actions of a rotten few..such is life,unfortunately!
But I do hope and pray the suspect gives out all the information possible to ensure any others behind this dastardly act are caught. And I agree youngsters can be easily lead. They have the hotblooded emotional reckoning and immaturity that make them perfect pawns for the culpable heads.
Fubar, not ALL Americans will do that, some will. Most will keep their thoughts to themselves,and may put some distance between a person they deem to be Muslim and themselves. Instinctive human behaviour.
Many will make it a point to be inviting to those they deem Muslim, to show they are is not biased.
And all these things happening are NOT because of what these two are said to have done, this is just reinforcement of all that has happened before and is happening in many places on a daily basis.
agree. they're not giving him his miranda rights now because they're calling him a terrorist. just because he's not one of them. the colorado theater shooter who killed 12 people gets to have his day in court and is now pleading insanity, i think.
Unfortunately it will still be a case of Americans accusing all Muslims of being terrorists because of the crazy actions of these two brothers.
They are from Kyrgyzstan.
i still wonder why they did it. conspiracy theories anyone?
before their identities were revealed, i sort of thought they could be those people who didn't want stricter gun control laws trying to prove you don't need a gun to wreak havoc.
when information about the younger kid started coming out, i thought that they may be some sort of manchurian candidates or sleeper agents by some evil organization
or it could just be the elder brother bullying the younger one into coming with him to the marathon to do the deed together.
got this pic from another forum where the suspect and the bag was seen with the little boy who died nearby
These brothers kidnapped/carjacked a guy and told him "We are the bombers and just killed a cop". That makes them pretty guilty in my book. They also had explosives and have been caught on tape throwing them out their car windows at the police.
when i was 19,,, i started smoking
and my GF lefts me because of this :'(
I wanted to bomb the world that time (Figuratively) but i didn't do it :(
btw we had another chance together.
Damn, that should be the worst scenario for a 19 years old guy, but seems he did it ,,, oooh bad b!tchy GF
so far what evidence they have against the kid?
that he was at the marathon scene and was carrying a bag?
Dzhokhar must be terrified to death seeing his brother killed.
A lot of 19 year olds are easily led. That is why so many start their prison careers around that time. I am smarter than the cops they will never catch me! Lol
he tried to contact the intern watch this video http://www.boston.com/video/viral_page/?/services/player/bcpid1367773107001&bckey=AQ~~,AAAAAA6piHY~,DqRT40XOAr9OWST-YiEQyzUCo3g3L-Af&bctid=2312754444001 after they release his pictures.
Yes Zafirah I have the same thoughts.
and he is still innocent until proven guilty...
If he was innocent , he would have turned himself in.... Get a grip... He is not innocent, because he didn't do what he was suppose to do!
This is not justice..it is like FBI taking law in his hand. Nope. Except in defence condition if suspect is trying to kill someone again they have the authority to kill him on the spot otherwise no... He could have been plead not guilty in court..shame on CIA and FBI. Suspect was wounded and they shot him again and he died of more wounds which doest make sense at all. People who claims they are behind world peace and bla bla bla they do these shameful acts.
'On the spot' judgement with the guns !
So sad. Barbaric acts. Suspects are legally innocents until they are tried in court with proper evidences and convicted. Killing a suspect is above my head unless if they killed him in defence I mean to protect themselves.
With the lockdown, residents are forced to remain indoors .. Like media , the security people were unable to do their work without disturbing the common folks liberty.
What'll happen to old citizens, sick kids, daily wagers
etc ..
Dzhokhar was just captured.
Hope he is still alive to tell who are responsible for all of this.
Well said..
Those who corrupted their minds should be brought to justice..
Thanks to all the law enforcement agencies, each and every officer out there for the great job done! RIP Officer Collier.
It's so shame to see a 19 year old kid throw his life away, because of some terroist s***, total idiot
The father of Boston Marathon bombing suspects, 26-year-old Tamerlan and 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, spoke with The Associated Press (AP) via phone on Friday. The father, Anzor Tsarnaev spoke from the Russian city of Makhachkala, and was told by police that Tamerlan was killed and Dzhokhar was being pursued by authorities, reports the AP.
"My son is a true angel," Tsarnaev told the AP. "Dzhokhar is a second-year medical student in the U.S. He is such an intelligent boy. We expected him to come on holidays here."
Earlier on Friday, WBZ interviewed an uncle of the suspects. Ruslan Tsarni told reporters of his nephews, "I wish they never existed."
Tsarni says the suspects Dzhokar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev came to the United States sometime in 2000 or 2001 -- more than 10 years ago --and have lived on Norfolk Street in Cambridge since their immigration.
The uncle has not been in contact with his nephews since 2009, he told WBZ.
“He deserved his. He absolutely deserved his,” Tsarni said of Tamerlan's death earlier on Friday. “They do not deserve to live on this earth.”
The uncle also called his nephew a "loser."
Tamerlan- suspect no 1 (the brother)later died after reportedly being run over by Dzhokhar as he escaped.
Suspect No 2 is captured..
"He Reportedly Ran Over His Brother" ?
