FBI hunting 12-strong terrorist “sleeper cell” linked to brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev

'The FBI was last night hunting a 12-strong terrorist “sleeper cell” linked to the Boston marathon bomb brothers.

Police believe Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev were specially trained to carry out the devastating attack.

More than 1,000 FBI operatives were last night working to track down the cell and arrested a man and two women 60 miles from Boston in the hours before Dzhokhar’s dramatic capture after a bloody shootout on Friday.

A source close to the investigation said: “We have no doubt the brothers were not acting alone. The devices used to detonate the two bombs were highly sophisticated and not the kind of thing people learn from Google.

“They were too advanced. Someone gave the brothers the skills and it is now our job to find out just who they were. Agents think the sleeper cell has up to a dozen members and has been waiting several years for their day to come.”'

Being of a suspicious turn of mind, I have to wonder if Glenn Beck’s ‘big news’ is that this whole cell was trained and funded by president hussein’s administration for insertion into some Moslem country or other.

It’d be very ironic if the whole Boston Marathon massacre was planned and executed by administration employees.

Not surprising, but, yes, ironic.

But Big Sis Janet has already ruled out a larger conspiracy days ago.

I hope that no one on FR will generalize from another twelve isolated incidents (12-strong terrorist “sleeper cell” linked to the Boston marathon bomb brothers) to the entire religion of peace.

You mean there’s more “perp’s of the jihad” out there...I bet Obama will be playing more golf this month hoping this just goes away and the MSM just ignores the fact that the Jihadi Chickens have come to roost!

Why do we have to get this information from a British news source? I know, I know. The question was primarily rhetorical.
