US authorities learned that the Tsarnaev brothers, who were behind the bombing at the Boston Marathon last week, were planning to carry out another attack in New York once they left Boston.

The Boston Globe reported on Wednesday that Tamerlan (26) and Dzhokhar (19) Tsarnaev did not succeed in carrying out their plans only because they were tracked down by Massachusetts authorities a few days after the marathon attack. …

Dumb question here:

If these mutants really intended to carry out an attack in New York City, then how did they end up in a situation 3-4 days after their original attack in Boston where they were carjacking someone and robbing cash from an ATM?

Something doesn't "compute" here.

BS on New York....They really think the kid is telling the truth.

Here's the truth...After the bombing...the dead one called his mother OVERSEAS and said "Everything is okay...thanks to allah."

She knows where they were REALLY going...probably to a sporting event...someplace they have been before.

Waterboard her. Mother and father are most likely terrorists.

Mamma might have even bought the pressure cookers.

Waterboard her!!

Russia will get info from her.

Tamerlan can not be reached for comment via his extended stay at the HOT-hell Jihadi Last Resort but he’s having an explosively grand time — albeit rather hot in temperature.

Photos of the bombers were released to the public in the hopes that someone might know their identity and info the police. So the bombers knew that they only had a few hours of freedom left.

My initial speculation was that the two mutants may or may not have planned additional attacks, but it appears that they surely did not plan an escape. Any subsequent attacks were probably planned to be carried out right there in Boston.

The incidents that took place on the Thursday night after the Monday bombings were likely precipitated by all of the public exposure they suddenly received -- first when their photos were posted by law enforcement as suspects, then when their names were released (probably after the police were flooded with calls from people who recognized them).

Those two worms won’t be committing more terrorist attacks, but their co-religionists want to.

Right. See my last post. I can accept any suggestion that they were planting additional attacks, but the evidence seems to weigh heavily against any attacks planned outside the Boston area.

Something worth noting is that the only reference I've seen to "New York City" related to this story comes from reports that this is what the two mutants told the guy whose car they stole. This might mean that they planned additional attacks in Boston, but later decided to flee to NYC to carry them out -- only after the heat was on once their names were revealed.

Right, the longer they remained in the community (where they could be sheltered), the more difficult it became for them to leave the area that was crawling with cops.

Maybe they were hoping for more cover with false news reports of “radical white extremists” being behind the attacks and the reluctance of the authorities to share the “suspects” pictures with the public.

The mutants are morons, which makes it hard to understand their decisions, but they are similar to many high-profile criminals. They were partying to celebrate, and socializing with friends (probably laughing that no one suspected them), which is common with such killers. That's part of the "fun" of mass murder. They probably did plan on going to NYC next, but they wanted to get another thrill on the way, hence the carjacking and murder of a campus policeman (a cop but a VERY soft target). It's shocking how often we find that a kidnapper (especially the pedophiles) was pulled over for speeding or some similar thrill-seeking risk with the victim in the trunk, and usually ticketed but let go. Rational people don't murder innocent women and children as their intended targets.

Never say never. A commie rat traitor bombed the Pentagon in 1972 (40th anniversary, last year, was not reported in the media) and he now boasts of being guilty as sin and yet free as a bird. On 9-11-2001 the leading newspaper in NYC ran an interview with him in which he says he could still see doing such things again one day.

''I don't regret setting bombs,'' Bill Ayers said. ''I feel we didn't do enough.''

So, would Mr. Ayers do it all again, he is asked? ''I don't want to discount the possibility,'' he said.

And if there were another Vietnam, he is asked, would he participate again in the Weathermen bombings?

By way of an answer, Mr. Ayers quoted from ''The Cure at Troy,'' Seamus Heaney's retelling of Sophocles' ''Philoctetes:'' '' 'Human beings suffer,/ They torture one another./ They get hurt and get hard.' ''

He continued to recite: History says, Don't hope On this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime The longed-for tidal wave Of justice can rise up And hope and history rhyme.

Thinking back on his life , Mr. Ayers said, ''I was a child of privilege and I woke up to a world on fire. And hope and history rhymed.''

Good thought.....Monk would love you. Columbo is still thinking...

Let's call her take....Burga booty....

It would be interesting to see exactly what she shoplifted. I thought it said clothes....from Lord & Taylor?? Wonder how often any of the family visited the place...nice cover...

NY is always the prime target....but this hit doesn't say that. I'd be inclined to think a game at SU.....

Someplace they've been before...seen and gone through security...where they could walk around to get a feel of a couple of scenarios.

The Boston Marathon was held last year, too. If so....I betcha there's pictures of them in 2012.

Wag the dog to make our government look great for stopping another attack while failing to stop the original one.
