JUST IN: FBI amends earlier assertion to Bob Orr that they had no prior contact with Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the bomb suspect killed in standoff

FBI now acknowledges they interviewed Tsarnaev 2 years ago at the request of a foreign country about possible extremist ties

They maintain that they did not find any derogatory information about him and closed the file. FBI expected to issue a statement shortly

“they interviewed Tsarnaev 2 years ago at the request of a foreign country about possible extremist ties”

That almost certainly is Russia.

Did Obama stiff Russia on cooperation with fighting islamism for the purpose of protecting muslims (”if the political winds shift...”)?

That might explain some of the hostility of the Putin regime, although there are certainly other reasons for it.

“Nope, Obama voters don’t want to know, don’t care. They worship Obama no matter what... that includes the media. The only one who would dare ask a question about this might be Ed Henry.”

I’m not so sure about this. I think that not GETTING KILLED BY TERRORISTS is something Black and White America, and non-rabid liberals can come together on.

At the request of a foreign country??? Is that what it takes to get criminal aliens investigated in this government?

If you bow down and respect a terrorist he will consider you his friend and won’t attack you anymore. Wrong answer 0bozo.

Truth is.......50% of the 79% in Boston, who voted for BO, think America deserves jihad and be assured it is a topic of conversation over glasses of merlot in Boston, as we speak.

They [FBI] maintain that they did not find any derogatory information about him and closed the file.

Apparently, they didn't look too closely. Per reports this morning, both brothers had been posting Jihadist videos on Youtube for several years.

This is the second article I’ve seen about Major Garrett and SeeBS. When did he go over to the Dark Side? He used to be on FOX.

Remember Nancy Pelosi marching hand in hand with other rats to go vote on Obamacare, accusing Tea Party Patriots of spitting on the Black congressmen? That’s what our Government tracks, citizens, not muslim jihadist.

Sheesh. Reminds me of the FBI speaking to Oswald and having some sort of file on him. Just a misunderstood soul.

That phrase needs to be stuck on HRC like white on rice...bumper stickers, internet meme, you name it. It is the best way to avoid a Hillary Presidency - if we just had the guts to use it like the left used “Bush Lied”.

So we let terrorists blow the legs off people and kill ambassadors - what difference does it make?

“Sheesh folks, you want to survive? Vote the RATS out — every one of them.”

If it were just the ‘rats’, we could do something about this mess. We gotta clean the radical muslim loving/open border contingent out of our own ranks first. And FAST.

The FBI is no longer competent. Not just on terrorism — In my county the controller was suspected of embezzling over a long period of time and the FBI brought in to investigate. Found no wrong doing, no evidence. Then, two years later, local PD investigated and found over $2 million missing. He was convicted. FBI agents were promoted (no doubt).
