Comment Removed.
Summary: Celebrating the attack
Not to flog the obvious, but anytime civilians are blown up anywhere, it's not such a good day.
Unfortunately, your troll logic in this instance is indistinguishable from Joeterroristfreedom-fighter. "NOW THE IMPERIALIST PIG-DOGS SHALL UNDERSTAND THE HUMILIATION THEY HAVE HEAPED ON _____________ FOR SO MANY YEARS!"
Etcetera, etcetera.
That does not deserve a response.
Anyway: apparently the bomb went off 3 hours after the winner finished, which seems to imply that there wasn't that many people around. Also, the explosions went off at a hotel, not in the stands, which were on the other side of the road.
That does not seem to imply the usual suspects(Al-Q). Is this the case of a lone bomber?
Remind me again, if You want to attack the POWER in a democracy, where do You hit?Quote:

No personal attacks please.
Oh stop, a lot of people agree with Kad, even though the sentiment is offensive. He's right, in a way, bombs are a scary thing and it is a wonder that they don't go off in metropolitan areas more often. I hope not too many people were hurt by this, but I've stopped getting together with massive amounts of people many years ago because in no way is it a good idea or pleasant
... And this worthless human being and disgrace to the entire species acknowledge the fact You think so.Quote:

Hundreds. You express active pleasure with the murder of civilians. You are truly :daisy: in the head.Quote:

the explosion was in a 5 star hotel next to the route...for all we know it was some foie gras past it's expiration date.
Kadagar's comment doesn't really warrant a response from civilised human beings.
No.Quote:

Condolences to all the injured.

Targeting civilians for political purposes is terrorism.
Targeting suspected terrorists for political purposes is vote buying. With any bystanders collatoral damage.
There is a ragged, raw circle
by tooth blood and claw.
It's not nice, nor fair, nor just. Neither is collateral damage.
This is the realpolitik anti-circle of life.

Btw normal suspects in the US are crazed militia men for bombings. 80% chance it was a local. Maybe even protesting against tightening federal gun laws.
But 12 dead and no guns used can't hurt. Try to blame all of the worlds ills on law abiding gun owners. You're going to lose that warQuote:

I think I will withdraw myself from discussion on this topic - on this "international" forum.
It's only cool when it's the people You deem as bad guys being hit on their soil, aight?
EDIT: If 3ish US-people dead will lead to possibly 300 tons LESS explosive materials being dropped on populated areas in third world countries, I am all for it.
Why?
Because I value every human life, and right now, the US is on a very, very, VERY big karma minus.
Is it shameful that a small part of me is thinking "There you go Boston, that's what terrorism is, not some misty eyed dreams of the 'oul sod', where heroic freedom fighters kill innocent civilians with the millions you donated over the years."?
Of course it's shameful, but having lived through terrorism I find America's 'War on Terror when it suits US' hard to swallow.
That's horrible footage to watch. Hope the death toll doesn't rise, and that this will prove to be some sort of tragic accident.
Two more devices found and dismantled, so it looks like it is terrorism.
RIP and condolences
The clueless at cluesforum has already found out that this never happened.
Back in the real world, the police have told people to avoid trash cans, so the bombs were apparently placed there. This rules out suicide bombings, which reinforces the lone bomber over the islamist terrorist. Unabomber II?
The death count is reported as "rising". RIP
EDIT: And for a really far-fetched theory: April 15th is Kim Il-Sung's birthday.
Bloody hell, some of those photos are pretty shocking. I find a mindset that makes someone whip out their cellphone and start snapping in that situation disgusting.
:daisy: has got a point, even if it is buried behind detestable schadenfreude; America, and the UK by unprotesting association, is far too complacent whith our government's carrying out of the same acts we purport to revile and detest. That it should take such horrific circumstance for attention to be drawn is another pointg I can add to my rant on the indifference of society.Quote:

The police has a suspect in custody, and it's a Saudi. Islamic terrorism it is, then.

I will give you the opportunity to retract that accusation.Quote:
