    At this point, I guess we need to wait till officials decide to release the photo they got from Lord and Taylors.

    Edit - They might be getting ready to do it now at news conference. They have easels with photos covered up ready to be unveiled.

    On top of everything else, now I can't help but imagine someone seeing those pictures and recognizing his or her son.

    Makes me think of the lady (I'm using the term loosely) that pushed a guy onto a subway track because, after 9/11, she hated everyone that looked like they were of a certain ethnicity. He died.

    There are alot of scary people out there.

    One bomber dead; one on the run. Russian brothers from near the Chechnya region. Parts of Boston on lockdown. Just Crazy.

    I saw on the theblaze.com this morning, a picture that was posted on reddit that clearly shows the white hat suspect fleeing the scene (sans backpack) and possible suspect #2 in the further background.

    The Associated Press has identified the two suspects as coming from the Russian region near Chechnya, which has been plagued by an Islamic insurgency stemming from separatist wars. The two young men were living legally in the U.S.

    If this does turn out to be Islamic terrorism then this it'll be more of the same old, same old

    For the record, the Islamic insurgency that has grown in Chechnya, is very different from the Islamic extremism that has grown in the Middle East. In Chechnya, they are fighting for independence from Russia, and has very little to do with hating America or American values. They simply want to be their own country, free from then Soviet-now Russian rule.

    It makes this case very perplexing. Chechnyan's never cared one way or the other about America or American's. it was a very local fight. Also, these guys have been in the US for around a decade, and out of Chechnya even longer. Like I said, very perplexing.

    However, I agree that whatever their reasons for this monstrous act, it is more of the same. All terrorism is more of the same, no matter the reasons. It's all just murder.

    So it seems everyone was right about these guys.

    They were both domestic and Muslim. White, and foreign born. Likely inspired by Al-Qeada, but not Middle Eastern.

    Crazy world.

    I don't think the Chechny connection is significant. I think it's just radical Islam. From an outsider's perspective, Governor seems competent and charismatic. The mayor? Not so much.

    Indeed. And what I don't get: the US has it's thumbs in a lot of pies, but not Chechnya.

    That's why this isn't about Chechnya.
