Some say that the FBI should have been notified sooner by DHS as there are many holes and unanswered questions that still remain regarding the Boston Marathon bombings, others think DHS is hiding something.

WASHINGTON — Tensions on Capitol Hill flare as Department of Homeland Security (DHS) director, Janet Napolitano, was questioned by a congressional member on DHS’s foreknowledge of the older Tsarneav brother’s activities and why nothing was done to counter his alleged activities.
Another attendee pointed out that if we want to stop terrorism in America, all agencies must work together.
Janet Napolitano stated during the committee, “Yes, the system pinged when he was leaving the United States, by the time he returned all investigations closed”, essentially admitting that DHS dropped the ball.
However, other factors could play into this media and governmental circus as there is likely more to the Boston Marathon bombings than reported at this time. For instance, why has there been no official mention of the contractors that were present near the finish line spotted before and after the bombing? These contractors look militarized, carrying 3 day assault packs and wearing Craft International spec ops gear typical of private contractors. In fact, questions by reporters on this very subject have been heavily deflected by officials raising eyebrows on some.
We also have the fact that one of the bombing suspects was reported to have been shot in the throat and missing most of his tongue, now this story is changing as well.
RT reported that Boston Marathon bombing suspect, Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, was interrogated at the hospital and admitted to authorities that he was indeed involved in planting bombs at the Boston Marathon. According to reporter, Anastasia Chirkina, “The motives behind the two bombings were the wars the United States was fighting against Iraq and Afghanistan”. This information contradicts earlier reports that the suspect was shot in the throat and can’t talk.
In fact the Washington Times reported, “According to Senator Dan Coats (R – Ind.) on ABC News’ “This Week with George Stephanopoulos,” the Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, captured Friday night by law enforcement was shot in the throat and is unable to talk to the FBI.
Coats elaborated: “The information we have is that there was a shot to the throat, and it’s questionable when and whether he’ll be able to talk again. Doesn’t mean he can’t communicate. But right now I think he’s in a condition where they can’t get any information from him at all.”
Boston Mayor Thomas Menino earlier on the show had said, “We don’t know if we’ll ever be able to question the individual,” but he did not elaborate.
However, a source close to the investigation, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters News that not only was Tsarnaev shot in the throat, but that he had extensive tongue damage.”
All of this contradicts what is now being reported in the media, raising red flags for some.
The Telegraph recently reported that, “Two US officials have also said that the brothers appear to have acted alone and were motivated by a radical brand of Islam.
The officials said preliminary evidence from Tsarnaev’s interrogation suggested the brothers were motivated by religious extremism but were apparently not involved with Islamic terrorist organisations.
The surviving brother communicated with his interrogators in writing, precluding the type of back-and-forth exchanges often crucial to establishing key facts, said the officials, who have not been named.
They cautioned that they were still trying to verify what they were told by Tsarnaev and were looking at such things as his telephone and online communications and his associations with others. Tamerlan died on the night that Dzhokhar was captured.”
The official report is outrageous as the “lone wolf” angle will now be utilized to gain more control over the civilian population in America.
Yet even more preposterous is the fact that officials are claiming essentially that the Internet is a breeding ground for terror activities, further pushing control measures on the populace incrementally.
Then there is still the fact that the official story maintains that the older brother Tamerlan is dead and was actually ran over by his younger brother durring a get-away attempt from police. What is very suspicious about this report is that we have seen footage of Tamerlan being detained and put into a police car, alive. Tamerlan’s aunt positively identified him from the video stating to reporter Dan Dick’s on the phone that indeed that was Tamerlan in the video “naked” being detained by police.
