According to CNN, Russia contacted the US in 2011 about the older brother, whom had just returned to the US after visiting Russia.

About what? To get him back?


Glad they got the other kid alive. Questions need to be answered.

They contacted the FBI because they thought he was suspicious. The guy on CNN said Russia wanted the US to "interview" him and keep an eye on him. I assume the FBI didn't take it serious or not enough evidence was there for them to spend resources.

It's one of those moments where the US could have prevented what happen but at the same time it's impossible to know. I assume our government keeps track on key names in the terror game. Besides helping in Fallujah, Chechen people don't attack Americans. They mostly stick to fighting in Russia.

It's like I said on Facebook. This isn't the first time a terror attack happened on US soil 2yrs after intel came in that could have at least prepared us if not prevent.

The White house was contacted by I believe Sudan, whom was offering to trade Osama Bin Laden. The US didn't accept the offer, Osama was released. A couple years later 9/11 happened.


On another note, I still don't believe these 2 acted alone. I don't wanna cause paranoia or anything, it just doesn't make since to me that a 26yr old and 19yr old did this alone.

That's one thing that I really want to find out. I want to know if it was just these 2 guys or if they were part of some cell or group or something.

That information is very important.

It's looking like the connection is Islamic Extremism and the fact that they spent so much time in the US.

Everyone in Chechnya is trying to distance themselves from the attack, even claiming that there is no evidence the boys ever lived in Chechnya.

No nation is full of bad seeds, but it's known that Chechnya has a lot of connection with Al-Qaeda.

Thoughts and prayers go out to the families and the victims of this horrible tragedy. May god bring justice for the American citizens.
This happened on 04/15/13 0+4=4, 5-1=4, 1+3=4, 4-4-4. The number 4 stands for the number of victims killed in this tragedy. Kind of creepy, isn't it.

Again- Our thoughts and prayers are with Boston

Remembering the wounded and the fallen today.

It's bittersweet. I remember exactly where I and my family were during the hours that unfolded after this shameless tragedy, sharing in the pain and confusion that many of us experienced even from a distance. The memories are still fresh and painful yet our of ashes life is often reborn.

To those in the Boston area, you are in our thoughts today.
