MUST SEE: Infrared Video Of Bomber Hiding In Boat
Brand New Infrared Helicopter Video
Watch at 2:53 for suicide attempt.
While we can't be 100% certain, it appears pretty clearly that he shoots himself. You can see in the clip from 2:53- 2:55 where he lifts his right hand and appears to shoot himself in the right side of the neck. Then you see the heat from his blood come out on the left side of his head, as his head falls to the left.
State police released this video shot from above the boat where the Boston Marathon bombing suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was hiding.

Teen: I Am Not the Boston Marathon Bomber
Updates From RT Live Blog
01:18 GMT: The Tsarnaev brothers used their carjacking victim's ATM card before a gunfight with authorities, police say. Watertown Police Chief Edward Deveau says the suspects behind the Boston Marathon bombing also told the carjacking victim they bombed Monday's race and killed a police officer.
00:25 GMT: Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the suspect behind the Boston Marathon bombing who was arrested on Friday night, suffered a throat injury and may not be able to talk for a few days, a federal official told CNN on condition of anonymity. Earlier Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick said that Tsarnaev was in a "serious but stable condition" adding that he was "not able to communicate yet."
08:13 GMT: Massachusetts police have discovered seven pipe bombs in Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s flat in the town of Cambridge. A bomb squad also found IEDs along the chase route Thursday night.
16:45 GMT: Friends of bombing victim Jeff Bauman, who lost both his legs below the knee, have set up an online fundraiser to help him pay for the hospital bills. Bauman was almost killed by the blast after an explosive devise detonated right next to where he stood watching the marathon.

FBI Screw Up - Thought Chechens would only attack Russians
FBI Hunts 12 Person Sleeper Cell Linked To Brothers
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.”
A specialist team of CIA and FBI interrogators was yesterday flown to a Boston hospital to grill wounded Dzhokhar, 19, about the secret group. The University of Massachusetts student was caught on Friday after hiding out in a boat parked in a garden in locked down Watertown the day after a gun battle with police left his 26-year-old brother and a rookie cop dead.
Dzhokhar is said to have run his brother over as he escaped in a stolen car while Tamerlan lay handcuffed on the ground. They were carrying six bombs with them at the time, three of which exploded, as well as a handgun and rifle. The devices were thought to be pipe bombs.
Neighbours of the family said older brother Tamerlan had recently become obsessed with Islam. He mysteriously left the US in January last year to spend six months in Russia. Yesterday senior FBI counter-terrorism official Kevin Brock said: “It’s a key thread for investigators.”
It also emerged the Bureau interviewed Tamerlan two years ago, at the request of the Russian government, but could not establish that he had ties to terrorist radicals.
This was despite his worrying Russian-language YouTube page featuring links to extremist Islamic sites and others since taken down by YouTube.
One link showed an hour-long speech by an Islamic teacher called Shaykh Feiz Mohammed, while other videos are labled “Terrorists” and “Islam”.
The radical cleric, with links to extremist British Muslims, encouraged his followers to become martyrs for Islam. He said: “Teach them this: There is nothing more beloved to me than wanting to die as a mujahid.”
Government officials have said the brothers were not under surveillance as possible militants. And an FBI statement said the matter was closed because interviews with Tamerlan and family members “did not find any terrorism activity, domestic or foreign."

Bomber Beats Up Women, Should Have Been Deported
Judicial Watch
Boston Bomber Should Have Been Deported After 2009 Arrest
The slain Boston Marathon bombing suspect should have been deported in 2009, said Chris Farrell with Judicial Watch. Farrell said 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev was in the United States after being offered asylum but should have been deported after being convicted of domestic violence.
"DHS, did nothing," he said. "Makes no connection between his criminal behavior and his status of trying to gain citizenship here."

Bomber Kicked Out Of Mosque For Rage Filled Rant Over MLK
Boston bomber was thrown out of his mosque for 'raged filled rant' against Martin Luther King three months ago. Boston marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev was thrown out of his local mosque for 'crazy' behavior after getting involved a 'shouting match' with his imam according to one member of the congregation.
Described as being full of rage by a worshiper who would give his name only as Muhammad, Tamerlan was ejected from the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center three months ago for claiming that Martin Luther King Jr. was not a man Muslims should look to emulate.

Bomber Was Kicked Out Of Uncle's House For Extremist Views
One of the Boston bombing suspects set off alarm bells among his family a year ago during a trip here to visit relatives, ABC News has learned. According to a family member, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, a devout Muslim, was kicked out of his uncle's house because of his increasingly extremist views on religion.

The boy's uncle said Dzhokar, the younger of the brothers, was "used by his older brother. He’s just another victim of his older brother. He victimized others, but he’s been used by his older brother."

They were arrested a 2nd time. Not sure if you know that.

I haven't seen any anti-muslim backlash on any of the sites I visit. If anything it's the opposite. Most of the anger I've been seeing is at the FBI for being aware of the older brother's activities and then not watching him closely enough. I think the FBI is going to end up taking some serious heat for dropping the ball on these 2 guys. I predict heads will roll at FBI headquarters before this is over.
But let's be clear. These brothers aren't patsies. They are guilty as fuck. Let's not excuse what they have done. They are scumbag motherfuckers who destroyed lives forever.
And my thoughts have nothing to do with their religion. As an atheist, I could give a flying fuck what anyone believes. Religion is all Santa Claus anyway, just with more expensive robes.

Yes, they did have help. From a Chechyn terror cell. They made the decision to transport and place the bombs knowing they might kill and maim hundreds.
They are not patsies. This was not an FBI inside job. It was an FBI fuck up -- they should have been watching the older brother like the Russians asked us to, but they completely discounted the threat of Chechyn terrorists to the U.S..

Your statement implies you think our government created this event. So far all the evidence suggests this was the work of a terror cell. If you think our government orchestrated and planned the Boston Marathon Bombing, then I might as well quit blogging and shut down the website right now. I'm not talking about the past, or the future, or other events, I'm talking about THIS event.
There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that our gov't had anything to do with this. None. They even brought in extra para-military security to prevent it from happening. The FBI fucked up by not watching these guys, that's the only criticism that can be fairly made at this point.
And remember these statements are coming from me -- someone who spends his life reading and analyzing news, and criticizing the government.
Now, if evidence appears later the gov't was somehow involved, then I will gladly adjust my opinion accordingly. But as of now, there has been nothing. Not even a sliver. The closest thing we have is the possibility that there was a bomb threat that we were not made aware of. Conspiracy blogs are running with the Craft Paramilitary story but they are complete idiots with their conclusions. Craft was there for security. They are honestly tons of blogs out there that are pushing the idea that Craft planted the bombs. It's fucking insane.
As someone who cares about truth above all else, it is not a positive experience. I hate unsubstantiated conspiracy and knee-jerk thinking from all sides. It destroys the credibility of otherwise respected thinkers. Wildly subjective accusation without fact is detrimental to positive discourse.
Just to be clear, I am not talking about discussions here at Daily Bail. I am referring to a couple of other websites -- (not gonna name them) who are pushing the meme that the Craft para-military teams at the race for security actually planted the bombs. They are missing the point entirely about Craft's presence -- which is -- was there a credible bomb threat before the race that the public was not informed of?
I have an open mind of course. I'm well aware of the FBI's history with bomb plots as you know. I'm not surprised the FBI dropped the ball on the older brother. They didn't give the Chechyn threat any credence in the U.S..

On YouTube, Tamerlan created a playlist of videos titled “Terrorists.”

Quickly, the authorities secured a warehouse in Boston’s Seaport district and filled the sprawling space: On half of the vast floor, hundreds of pieces of bloody clothes were laid out to dry so they could be examined for forensic clues or flown to FBI labs at Quantico in Prince William County for testing. In the other half of the room, more than a dozen investigators sifted through hundreds of hours of video, looking for people “doing things that are different from what everybody else is doing,” Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis said in an interview Saturday.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev spent roughly six months in Russia in 2012, but the relative, who insisted on anonymity to avoid offending other family members, insisted the young man had been radicalized in the United States before his trip.

Boston bomber: FBI 'dropped the ball' over Tamerlan Tsarnaev
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/10008638/Boston-bomber-FBI-dropped-the-ball-over-Tamerlan-Tsarnaev.html
As the agency was accused of "dropping the ball" over the case, NBC News reported that Tamerlan Tsarnaev had been seen making six visits to a known Islamic militant in a mosque in the Russian republic of Dagestan.
The visits came during a six month trip that Tamerlan made to the city of Makhachkala to see his family, NBC said. According to a local police official, a case file on Tsarnaev was then handed over to the FBI along with a request for further information. However, the FBI never replied.
The agency has already admitted that it interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev in 2011 after Russia raised concerns that he was becoming a follower of radical Islam, but found nothing "derogatory" against him and did not pursue the case further.
Regarding the question you asked about private security.
I've seen a photo showing 7 or 8 dudes from The Craft standing around their SUV, and I'm sure there were more we didn't spot. As I wrote a few days ago, they were either hired by the Marathon organizers or the City of Boston for extra security. It's also possible they operate on a consulting/retainer basis for DHS who sends them to all the big sporting events.
Here's what's pissing me off. The older brother beat the shit out of his girlfriend, and should have been deported but wasn't. I've posted the story everywhere. So once again, DHS failed to deport a guy when they should have.
I think we will find in 2 weeks that all the media discussion will be focused on how the FBI and DHS fucked up, and in a big way. I'm looking forward to it.
Great find. I hadn't noticed that. I believe we have proof.
I agree on the blood perhaps, it's really hard to tell. But it looks pretty clear that he puts something up to the side of his neck and then his head immediately leans back and his body goes sort of limp. I'm not positive but I don't think you would see a sharp snap of the head in a thermal image because he was already lying down.
When you add that to the new story from ABC reporting that he told police he shot himself in the boat, and I think it's pretty certain. Others can judge for themselves.
I know what you are saying about the tarp, but that is not what I am referring to. To the left of his head just above where his left ear would be, you can see a hot spot sort of in a round splatter pattern. This only shows up after he is seen raising his right hand to the left side of his neck. As his head start to fall towards the left, that is when you will see the small somewhat round heat spot. You will not see it any other time before that.
Thanks for that clarification. I see the small circular thermal spot appear above his left ear after the shot. I watched it 5 times and can definitely see it. My only question, what did you mean by "he raises his right hand to the left side of his neck?" What I see is the right hand being pointed at the right side of his neck and then his right hand sort of falls lower to his chest as his body goes limp after the shot. Am I missing something?
Thanks dear. The right side of his neck is what I meant to say. It appears that he is retrieving the gun from his left side or the top of his chest, cuz you can see his right arm move slightly left and then back to the right. You know when your a mom, you have to watch everything very carefully. My heart is torn with all of this, since I have a 19 year old myself.
Watch in 2:49 you will see the gun is on the left side of his chest in his left hand. You will see the the gun as he slides it over his chest to his right hand. He was too week from all the blood loss to lift it to his head.
I'm going to do a new post on it, asking readers to weigh in. I will credit you in the story.

EXACTLY -- WE HAVE A WINNER
That should be the story on the Craft Para-Military Teams we should be reading about -- How they were there on site, and failed miserably. Instead we are getting insane conspiracy stories about Craft planting the bombs. Certain websites (Natural News and 3 or 4 others) are blowing the Boston story, big time.
They are focusing on whether the FBI was involved somehow, which is important given the FBI's history of involvement with terror plots, but they are missing the bigger story of the FBI's non-involvement. It's a disgrace that we knew about this guy and didn't monitor him more closely. As Skin said, why in the hell are we spending tens of billions on DHS and the FBI to fight terror when they constantly screw it up.
The FBI is so f*cked up and disorganized, dominated by internal turf wars, that the higher ups didn't even realize they already had a file on the older brother when they held their big press conference Thursday.
It's a psychedelic clown show, but without Bozo and laughter.
By the way, the best way to alert me is by posting a message in comments of any recent story on the front page. It's better than sending by email.
I have been trying to google a story posting this finding and I can't seem to locate one. Has anyone else posted anything like this?
