Did the dead Marathon bomber visit Pakistan..?

[kentuck]

or another country after he flew into Russia last year? It has been reported that he spent about 6 months in Russia last year? Do we know for a fact that he was in Russia for all that time? Perhaps Putin could help us with that? Is Homeland Security on top of this, do you think?

1. It has been reported that Putin and Obama spoke and discussed further sharing of info

also that an FBI team would be heading overseas to further investigate.

[kentuck]

3. That's pretty good cooperation...

between two former super powers...

5. I think Putin's motive is to gain the "moral high ground" against our human rights accusations

with respect to Russia's record with Chechnya. Clearly he wants to underscore the terrorism aspects as opposed to any more "laudable" goals from Chechnyans wanting liberation from Russia.

2. Yeah I'm sure they're all over that. By the time they're done, they'll know what he had for lunch on

a particular day in a particular place and whether he burped.

[kentuck]

4. That should give any future terrorists pause...

I would think?

[Warpy]

6. He was certainly on somebody's radar

and the FBI was notified that he was a potential problem.

8. It was Russia that requested FBI look into him prior to his trip overseas.. So Putin gets to do a

"told you so"... as well.

7. I worked with a Pakistani woman

who was a Coptic. Her family left when she was a teenager. Because of Religious persecution? No, not according to her. She was the youngest of a family of 3 daughters and 1 son. Her Dad believed that his DAUGHTERS should have the same rights to an Education as his SON.

After they moved to the US, every single one of his CHILDREN got a college degree. This woman was one of the least religious people I worked with in that Non-Profit, including American born Christians.

9. Why would he?

11. There would be no point in going to Pakistan; Dagestan is the center of Salafist-Jihadi activity

Although Saudi Wahhabi missionaries were instrumental in establishing Slafist-Jihadi cadres in Chechnya during the early '90s, the center of such activity is in Dagestan now. Further, the movement is local and largely self-sustaining. There is probably little or no CIA involvement in the recent past, but there may be continuing support from Sunni radicals in the Gulf, especially Saudi Arabia.

The Caucasus are to the jihad agains the Russians as Afghanistan and Pakistan are to the jihad against the US. There is no lack of expertise and experience in the Caucasus.

12. His mechanic talked about Turkey

The accused Marathon bombers wore expensive clothes and drove brand-new Porsches, Range Rovers and Mercedes — and were in a rush for their car the day after the bombing, , says a Cambridge auto body shop owner.

Gilbert Junior, owner of the Cambridge -based Junior Auto Body, said he saw one of the accused bombers Tuesday morning and “knew something was wrong right away.”

“He was nervous, and biting his nails, and he wanted his girlfriend’s car right away even though I hadn’t fixed it yet,” he said.


Junior said the two were from Russia and used to live in Turkey. He said they belonged to a group of friends from Turkey. He said they paid him in cash and he never knew their names. He knew them only as “the brothers.”

13. My question is, 'Did he meet with Cheney in the last year or two?'

I can't think of one person on the planet who would get pleasure out of this incident...excluding Shooter. I have been waiting for his sneer to appear on the TV. Follow the money trail!
