Regardless. They are most likely guilty of killing a security guard and shooting up a neighborhood last night. I would imagine the plot to "set them up" would involve the entire law enforcement community of the New England area....Not likely

The suspects' uncle is PISSED. Poor guy, poor family.

I don't get this demand for immediate information. The FBI and police aren't just going to put their evidence out there just to satisfy the curiosity of the general public or tin foil hat wearers. They will release as much as they need to, in order to capture these guys.

Evidence is for trials, not for entertainment.

Blast in popular Baghdad coffee shop kills at least 27
By Mohammed Tawfeeq and Greg Botelho, CNN
updated 10:07 AM EDT, Fri April 19, 2013

Baghdad (CNN) -- A bomb exploded on Thursday night in a popular coffee shop in western Baghdad, killing at least 27 people and wounding 51 others, city police officials said.

The bomb was hidden in a plastic bag and then put in a cafe in the Iraqi capital's al-Amriya neighborhood, where it detonated around 10 p.m. (3 p.m. ET), according to police.

They estimated the device contained about two kilograms of highly explosive material.

The explosion ripped through the three-story building, which also includes an ice cream parlor on the first floor and medical offices on the second floor. The coffee shop was on the third floor.



Deadly wave of bombings across Iraq Most of those killed and hurt were young men, though four children were among the dead, police said.

Mostly Sunni Muslims live in the neighborhood, which is surrounded by walls except for one checkpoint staffed by Iraqi soldiers.

The violence follows a spate of attacks preceding the country's provincial elections, set for Saturday.

On Wednesday, three people died and 16 were wounded in four explosions in and around Baghdad, according to police.

There is concern that the security situation could affect the outcome of the vote, especially if Iraqis don't participate because of fears that polling stations may come under attack.

U.N. official Martin Kobler appealed Thursday for security forces to be on "heightened alert" so that citizens can vote "in a safe environment without fear of violence."

In the same statement, Kobler -- the special representative in Iraq for the U.N. secretary-general -- stressed that Iraqi leaders must "collectively endure a transparent and peaceful election, free of intimidation or political interference."

And he urged Iraqis to vote, casting it as their patriotic duty.

"I am calling on all women and men to cast their ballots for a better future for them and their children," Kobler said. "My appeal goes particularly to young Iraqis, because you are the future of this country."

What a terrible story Rick...
I keep imagining how sick a person would have to be (aside form being sick enough just to bomb anything) to do this kind of thing if they saw kids in the vicinity...

Will it get to a point that none of us go outside and/or congregate?

I am not sure.

Maybe that this story is buried and not really news-worthy and that is a shame. Maybe that there probably won't be a massive manhunt to find who is responsible for it. Maybe because it's another example of how easy it is for some to do harm to others and I am having a hard time understanding that, understanding how people could do that.

So much confusion... Mass State Troopers tweeted a while ago that they had the car and weren't looking for it. They recalled the BOLO.

It's easy to point out double standards, but given the context I think it's completely different. Iraq is a warzone. Boston isn't. Regardless of who's fault it is Iraq violence is on them at this point.

I think the whole situation will be used as a model for future attacks. Whether we like it or not the battle has come to us. It started with 9-11 and the Trade Center bombing before that. It's now on a whole different level
