Video: Navy Seal Team VI Presser Reveals Government Culpability In Fatal Helicopter Crash

NAVY SEAL TEAM VI FAMILIES TO REVEAL GOVERNMENT’S CULPABILITY IN DEATH OF THEIR SONS IN FATAL HELICOPTER CRASH IN AFGHANISTAN FOLLOWING SUCCESSFUL RAID ON BIN LADEN’S COMPOUND:

Three families of Navy SEAL Team VI special forces servicemen, along with one family of an Army National Guardsman, will appear at a press conference on May 9, 2013, to disclose never before revealed information about how and why their sons along with 26 others died in a fatal helicopter crash in Afghanistan on August 6, 2011, just a few months after the successful raid on the compound of Osama Bin Laden that resulted in the master terrorist’s death.

Accompanying the families of these dead Navy SEAL Team VI special operations servicemen will be retired military experts verifying their accounts of how and why the government is as much responsible for the deaths of their sons as is the Taliban.

The areas of inquiry at the press conference will include but not be limited to:

1. How President Obama and Vice President Biden, having disclosed on May 4, 2011, that Navy Seal Team VI carried out the successful raid on Bin Laden’s compound resulting in the master terrorist’s death, put a retaliatory target on the backs of the fallen heroes.

2. How and why high-level military officials sent these Navy SEAL Team VI heroes into battle without special operations aviation and proper air support.

3. How and why middle-level military brass carries out too many ill-prepared missions to boost their standing with top-level military brass and the Commander-in-Chief in order that they can be promoted.

4. How the military restricts special operations servicemen and others from engaging in timely return fire when fired upon by the Taliban and other terrorist groups and interests, thus jeopardizing the servicemen’s lives.

5. How and why the denial of requested pre-assault fire may have contributed to the shoot down of the Navy SEAL Team VI helicopter and the death of these special operations servicemen.

6. How Afghani forces accompanying the Navy SEAL Team VI servicemen on the helicopter were not properly vetted and how they possibly disclosed classified information to the Taliban about the mission, resulting in the shoot down of the helicopter.

7. How military brass, while prohibiting any mention of a Judeo-Christian God, invited a Muslim cleric to the funeral for the fallen Navy SEAL Team VI heroes who disparaged in Arabic the memory of these servicemen by damning them as infidels to Allah. A video of the Muslim cleric’s “prayer” will be shown with a certified translation.

“This press conference takes on special significance given that our government has over the last twelve years since September 11th committed brave American servicemen to wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that, in large part as a result of politics, were poorly conceived of and implemented, resulting in the deaths of thousands and the maiming of tens of thousands of our brave heroes. To make matters even worse, America has effectively lost these wars,” stated Larry Klayman, legal counsel for the families.

UPDATE: 

Start at 14:20 for the part where the Muslim Cleric, (inexplicably invited to the funeral for the fallen Navy SEAL Team VI heroes by Military brass) disparaged  the memory of these servicemen by damning them as infidels. The Muslim cleric’s “prayer” was shown this morning with a certified translation.

30 of the 31 FBI Most Wanted Terrorists Are Muslims

And the other one’s a lefty eco-terrorist.

I am shocked and scandalized. Not a tea-bagger or Elvis impersonator in the whole lot. Don’t make no sense.

Video: 3 More Arrested in Boston Bombing Case

So much for the “Lone Wolf” theory we keep hearing about.

Ed Morrissey of Hot Air has been on this breaking story:

According to CBS News, the arrested are three friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

Two will be charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice and making false statement. They are not U.S. citizens.

According to WBZ-TV’s Karen Anderson, their names are Azamat Tazhayakov and Dias Kadyrbayev.  Both are originally from Kazakhstan and attended the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

The third suspect, according to CBS News, is an American citizen and he will be charged with making false statements.

How stupid do you have to be to obstruct an investigation of a terrorist bombing?  Either you have to be monumentally stupid — or involved in the plot.

According to CNN, they just helped Dzhokhar get rid of … fireworks-filled backpacks:

– A federal law enforcement official told CNN on Wednesday that the charges against two of the individuals taken into custody involve allegedly lying to officials, because when first questioned by the FBI they lied about not seeing the suspects and not knowing their whereabouts after the attack.

– The federal law enforcement source said the charge of conspiring to obstruct justice relates to their moving things from Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s dorm room and throwing them into a dumpster. The source said the objects disposed of included fireworks inside backpacks. The trash bin subsequently was taken to a nearby landfill. Authorities carried out a two-day search of the landfill in New Bedford late last week.

So  after the Boston bombing, they dumped backpacks full of fireworks material in the dumpster? As Morrissey notes, maybe they weren’t bright enough to put two and two together. But after the FBI showed up at their door, if they were innocent of collusion, why wouldn’t they have told them about the backpacks?

Video: Krauthammer On Obama Being ‘Unaware’ Of Benghazi Whistleblowers: ‘Color Me Skeptical’

Obama’s press conference earlier today provided a wealth of material for the Special Report Panel to chew on, tonight. Obama’s obfuscations on Syria, America’s damaged credibility, and of course Benghazi.

Starting at around 4:20, the discussion on Benghazi began.

“He hadn’t heard about it?” Krauthammer asked incredulously. “Nobody at the White House had heard about it? Nobody at the White House has access to Fox News? This is slightly incredible and it’s a rather weak response from the president. He knew that he would be calling on Ed Henry  as the first question because of his role in the White House Correspondents Association. He knew the Fox or at least his staff knew that Fox had broken the story, put a lot of effort and time on the story last night, and he pretends he’s never heard of it? Color me skeptical.”

Kirsten thought that it was very possible that Obama didn’t know because the White House doesn’t take the story seriously, and “this is a White House that has a pretty storied history of intimidating whistleblowers and prosecuting whistleblowers”, so it’s not something they want the president to be able to talk about. She said she was looking forward to hearing what the whistleblowers had to say.

Steven Hayes focused on the same thing I did at Breitbart, today, and that is Obama’s (oft repeated) vow to bring the perpetrators to justice.

“Where are we on that question?” he asked…..”It’s been nearly eight months!”

“How long is the president going to be able to say, ‘I’m determined to track them down and bring them to justice’,when people actually take that seriously. It’s been eight months – come -on!”

Krauthammer said that as long as the media outside of  Fox News ignores Benghazi, it will not be an “explosive” story.

Pravda during the Stalin era was probably a more reliable and less biased news source than the American MSM, today.

Part II of Fox News Special Report into the Benghazi cover-up premiered tonight and the news keeps getting worse.

BAIER: President Obama promised to get to the bottom of the Benghazi attack. Why are the perpetrators still free? Correspondent Adam Housley has part 2 of our exclusive investigation.

OBAMA: Make no mistake. Justice will be done.

HOUSLEY: Seven months and still no arrest or targeted killings after the brutal attack on two U.S. locations in Benghazi, Libya, killing four Americans — despite promises that those responsible would be hunted down and held accountable.

However, multiple sources tell Fox News that the U.S. has identified the Benghazi attacker who is still running free.

SO: We basically don’t want to upset anybody. And the problem is if Ambassador Stevens’ family knew that we were sitting on information about the people who killed their son, their brother, and we could look them as a government in the face, then we are messing up.

We’re messing up.

Gateway Pundit: BREAKING: Rep. Trey Gowdy Says Eyewitnesses Will Testify Next Week at Benghazi Hearing (Video)

Hear Come the Whistle-Blowers–
Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) spilled the beans tonight on the Benghazi hearings scheduled for May 8th. Gowdy said “first hand witnesses” will be testifying on the massacre and coverup. He told Greta – she won’t want to miss it.

“Well I am not liberty to disclose the identity of the witnesses but I will just say what I have said previously which is it is going to be a very informational and instructive hearing. I would encourage you to follow it. Benghazi is warming up. It is not going away despite the efforts of this administration… You know that hearsay evidence is not so interesting. First hand accounts by eye-witnesses much more compelling. So I would again repeat for your audience and those who may be watching. Let me just say next week will be a good opportunity for us to hear non-hearsay accounts of what happened in Benghazi.“

Quin Hillyer, The American Spectator: Obama: All His Gall is Divided Into Three Parts:

This president has some gall. I just caught the last half of his press conference. This is a man who couldn’t play it straight even if you gave him a pencil and a ruler.

Obama has three typical gambits. First, he denies responsibility for anything bad. Second, he blames his adversaries for his own failures or inaction. Third, he claims to be above the fray.

All three poses are flagrantly dishonest.

Consider, as per 1) White House tour cuts? Air traffic delays? Oh, his hands are tied. He warned us against that mean old sequester, dontcha know. (Never mind that in both cases, as the Wall Street Journal has showed, his administration already enjoyed discretion/flexibility. And never mind that he OPPOSED bills to give him more flexibility.)

The Daily Caller; Obama Blames Everybody - President finds fault in the Senate, budget cuts and, especially, those dastardly Republicans:

President Barack Obama spent most of his surprise April 30 press conference on the defensive, blaming the Senate, budget cuts, Republicans, Syria’s dictator and much else for the shaky start to his second term.

He had nothing major or new to announce, and no theme or message to steer media coverage.

About a third of the way through the press conference, Obama responded to a question about his political clout by saying sardonically that “as Mark Twain said, rumors of my demise may be a little exaggerated at this point.”

“In the Senate, this habit of requiring 60 votes for even the most modest piece of legislation has gummed up the works there,” he complained.

“On Syria, I think it’s important to understand that for several years now what we’ve been seeing is a slowly unfolding disaster for the Syrian people … this is not a situation in which we’ve been simply bystanders to what’s been happening,” he argued.

“It is true that the sequester is in place,” he also observed. “It’s damaging our economy. It’s hurting our people,” he said.

Maybe he should have taken the Republicans’ offer of giving him more flexibility to make smarter, targeted cuts? Jackass.

Washington Free Beacon: Gowdy: ‘Understatement’ to Say We Have No Confidence in ARB’s Benghazi Investigation:

Gowdy said there would be “persuasive” witnesses testifying about Benghazi May 8 and a “wonderful opportunity” to hear non-hearsay accounts about the attacks. President Obama claimed Tuesday that he had no knowledge of reports that these whistleblowers had been threatened or intimidated for divulging sensitive information to Congress about Benghazi.

GOP Rep. Gohmert To Glenn Beck: Holder Has “Spent More Time Defending the Terrorists than Defending the Country” (Video)

Glenn Beck had Republican congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas on the show to talk about Muslim Brotherhood infiltration into the highest reaches of government, and he had some astounding things to say.

On the FBI investigation into Tamerlan  Tsarnaev after being tipped off by the Russians that he was a potential terrorist, he said, “can you imagine what that interview was like?”  Because the FBI lexicon has been stripped of all references to Islamic extremism, he figured that it was “a complete waste of time.”

Beck asked Gohmert about the Judge who read Dzhokhar the Miranda rights. Gohmert noted how the  FBI was shocked but the Justice Dept wasn’t.

Referring to Holder’s days as a partner at the law firm the Washington, DC law firm of Covington & Burling, which *represented terrorists detained at Guantanamo Bay, Gohmert snarked, ”When your Atty Gen has spent more time defending the terrorists than defending the country – well we all have certain biases and lean certain ways”.

As for the Muslim infiltration, he noted that “an Egyptian magazine has said that there are six members of the Muslim Brotherhood who are active and are playing a vital role in this administration, and they sent out their names.”

Glenn Beck said he believes the Regime is obviously aware of this, but Obama considers the Muslim Brotherhood, the good guys.

*One of the Guantanamo detainees, from Kuwait had contributed to an anthology of detainee poetry compiled and published by Holder’s C&B colleague, Marc Falkoff.

Falkoff likened the plight of these “gentle, thoughtful” poets, to that of the Jews who had been held in concentration camps during World War II. The aforementioned Kuwaiti was released from Guantanamo in 2005 and promptly resumed his terrorist activities. In March 2008 he blew himself up with a truck bomb in Mosul, Iraq, killing 13 Iraqi army soldiers and wounding 42 others.\

Big Government: OBAMA DEFENDS FBI, HOMELAND SECURITY ON BOSTON BOMBING FAILURES:

Obama held fewer press conferences in his first term than any of his recent predecessors. Calling a surprise press conference absent any breaking news is highly unusual. Given recent developments on several fronts, however, it is indicative of a White House on the defense. Critical missteps by the Administration have been exposed over the past two weeks.

The investigation in the Boston Marathon bombing has revealed that the FBI had been warned about Tamerlan Tsarnaev and alleged ties to terrorists back in 2011. The FBI found no evidence, at the time, to support the allegations, yet his mother was placed on the terrorist watch list that same year.

A few months after the FBI closed its investigation, Tamerlan spent 6 months abroad in an area of Russia known to be used by terror groups. He returned to the US less than a year before this month’s attack, yet the FBI never followed-up their investigation.

Soon after his brother and accomplice Dhokhar was taken into custody, a special team of federal agents began interrogating him about assistance the brothers might have received. The suspect was cooperating. While the interrogation was going on, however, a federal judge, with the apparent blessing of Eric Holder, “mirandized” the suspect, reminding him that he didn’t have to cooperate. He has since stopped answering questions.

But at his press conference, Obama upheld the work of the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, explaining, “Based on what I’ve seen so far, the FBI performed its duties. Department of Homeland Security did what it was supposed to be doing.”

Special Report: Lawyer Claims Regime Made “Despicable Threats” Against Benghazi Whistleblowers (Video)

Fox News is all over this story.

Via Gretawire:

Victoria Toensing, a former Justice Department official and Republican counsel to the Senate intelligence committee, is now representing one of the State Department employees. She told Fox News her client and some of the others, who consider themselves whistleblowers, have been threatened by unnamed Obama administration officials.

“I’m not talking generally, I’m talking specifically about Benghazi – that people have been threatened,” Toensing said in an interview Monday. “And not just the State Department. People have been threatened at the CIA.”

Toensing declined to name her client. She also refused to say whether the individual was on the ground in Benghazi on the night of September 11, 2012, when terrorist attacks on two U.S. installations in the Libyan city killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens.

However, Toensing disclosed that her client has pertinent information on all three time periods investigators consider relevant to the attacks: the months that led up to September 11, when pleas by the ambassador and his staff for enhanced security in Benghazi were mostly rejected by senior officers at the State Department; the eight-hour time frame in which the attacks unfolded; and the eight-day period that followed the attacks, when Obama administration officials falsely described them as the result of a spontaneous protest over a video.

“It’s frightening and they’re doing some very despicable threats to people,” she said. “Not ‘We’re going to kill you,’ or not ‘We’re going to prosecute you tomorrow,’ but they’re taking career people and making them well aware that their careers will be over [if they cooperate with congressional investigators].”

On Special Report, tonight, Brett Baier led with that story,  and followed with new information about the Special ops who were close enough to the region to have helped secure the annex.

Here’s the panel discussion, afterward.

Via The Hill:

The State Department on Monday defended its decision not to have lower-level employees testify before Congress about last year’s attack in Benghazi, Libya.

House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) is pushing ahead with his investigation of the terrorist assault, and has asked for legal protections for lower-level employees who might be called to testify.

The State Department pushed back on Monday and said the independent probe into the attack “should be enough” for lawmakers.

“We think that we’ve done an independent investigation, that it’s been transparent, thorough, credible, and detailed, and that we’ve shared those findings with the U.S. Congress,” State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell said. “And that should be enough.”

Ventrell said the employees who were present during the attack or were otherwise involved have already provided “extensive testimony” to the FBI and the State Department’s independent review board, which issued a scathing report last year. He said they’re back on duty and at their posts around the world.

Actually, some of them want to come forward and have retained lawyers.

Stephen Coughlin: The Boston Attack and “Individual Jihad”‘ (Video)

Via Vlad Tepes, Stephen Coughlin discusses the motives behind the Boston attack and why the press will not tell you them.

Stephen Coughlin is a lawyer and former Joint Chiefs of Staff intelligence analyst who was in effect fired by the Pentagon at the request of Hesham Islam who has since been suspected of being an Islamic terrorist sympathizer.^[1] Coughlin’s warnings that the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) is affiliated with the terrorist group Muslim Brotherhood led Hesham Islam to call him “a Christian zealot with a pen.” Subsequently, the Joint Chiefs of Staff did not renew Coughlin’s contract as an intelligence analyst.^[2] In ignoring Coughlin’s warnings, dramatically emphasized by its January 2008 termination of Coughlin, the Pentagon turned a deliberate blind eye to the reality of Islamic terrorism (i.e., the actions of then United States Deputy Secretary of Defense Gordon R. England, a.k.a. Gullible Gordie), leading directly to Nidal Malik Hasan‘s November 2009 Jihadist attack.^[3]

The negative U.S. security implications of Coughlin’s termination were discussed repeatedly in several books published before the November 2009 massacre.

In part 6 of the securefreedom series, Coughlin started with a discussion of the liberal fantasy that right wing boogymen are behind every bad thing that happens.

“Have you noticed that everytime something bad happens we see the entire media start building up the groundswell for something like that? Almost like it’s a policy to do that”, he began.

“It’s a policy to generate narratives in the absence of facts. And what they’re doing, it seems to me is They’re just playing a random game so that once every so often one will pop up  their way so they can run with the ball. But what it means is they have put  political considerations or ideological considerations ahead of briefing the fact of the matter. And this is really becoming a problem.”

It gets better – over 50 minutes long, but well worth your time.

Jeanine Pirro Excoriates Mama Jihadi and the Obama Regime in a Rant for the Ages (Video)

Judge Jeanine Pirro’s opening statement on Saturday’s ‘Justice’  was a rant for the ages, and I suspect she speaks for a great many Americans, including me.

She didn’t pull any punches as she excoriated mama jihadi for her for having the audacity to complain about America after what her sons did,  and the Obama Regime  for their failures in the war on terror.

Transcript via Fox News:

In New York Harbor stands a mighty woman with a torch, beckoning the huddled masses yearning to breathe free, and the wretched refuse from tempest tossed shores to her as she lifts her lamp beside the golden door.

And they were by all accounts just that — a family fleeing a tyrannical government.  A family seeking political asylum.  The very people to whom that mighty woman holds out her welcoming torch.

This week, as America wakens from the nightmare visited upon Boston, as many painfully start the long road to recovery, we begin to comprehend the enormity of the violence that was visited upon us.

The Tsarnaev family — a father, mother, two sons — were granted political asylum in 2002. We opened our arms to them. Showered them with food, money, housing, education and all the freedoms of American citizens.

And look at how we were repaid.

Here’s how Tamerlan’s mother describes her son.

Zubeidat Tsarnaeva: “But, all around, he was really nice, and he never rejected anyone American just because they’re Americans.”

Really? He never rejected anyone American?

After opening our arms to you, we should be grateful that you and your terrorist son didn’t reject us?

Does that sound like a mother already devastated by the death of one son?  Or a woman on her own radical jihad, willing to sacrifice yet another son in honor of their god?

And get this one:

Zubeidat Tsarnaeva: “Why didn’t you send him to Guantanamo or whatever? Why? Why? Why did they have to kill him?”

Why didn’t they send him to Guantanamo?  So now you knew he was a Muslim jihadist?  That you raised a Muslim jihadist? If he’s innocent, why would he even need to go to Guantanamo?

Take a look at this one:

Zubeidat Tsarnaeva: “Why did I even go there? Why? I thought America is going to, like, protect us, our kids; it’s going to be safe. […] America took my kids away from me!”

America took your sons from you?

They injured more than 200.  Blinded, deafened, and blew legs and arms off of innocent civilians. Turning the city of Boston into a locked-down war zone of casualties, amputees, and a future of post-traumatic stress.

And America should protect you?

Your sons killed Americans.

We’re the ones who needed protection.

And you ask why did I even go there?  I’ll tell you why. You came to suck the fat of our land.

To take our money.

To educate your terrorist sons.

To steal from us.

To go on public assistance.

To get housing and food stamps.

While you’re driving your Mercedes Benz. All the while, your family’s going back and forth to the very country from which you claimed political refuge.

Did you guys lie on that petition?  By the way — that’s perjury.

And then, you’re a thief and you’re charged with theft.  You’re put on a terror watch list.  Your son is charged with beating a girlfriend.  Your other son is a pot head.  Neither of them working or employed — traveling back and forth.

Most Americans can’t even afford a vacation.  They’re losing their homes.  If they’re lucky enough to have a job, they live check to check.  The elderly choose between food and medicine.  Servicemen and women are getting cuts in their benefits.

And when hardworking Americans want to know how you guys can afford this, the governor of Massachusetts refuses to reveal what kind of taxpayer assistance Tamerlan got on grounds of privacy.

Privacy? What privacy?

Governor, you take our money and give it to this guy, and you want to protect his privacy?  You want to protect his rights?

He’s dead. He’s a terrorist. He has no rights. But it’s okay to invade my privacy, and publish my name and where I live on an interactive map, because I am a lawful gun owner.

And now, mother of Islamic jihadis — the Obama administration, at break-neck speed rushes in a federal judge.  Stops the FBI in the middle of an interrogation to arraign your son and shower him with even more rights.

The right to remain silent. The right to an attorney. Unparalleled medical care. All the protections of the American Constitution.

Why?

Because the president and his buddy, Eric Holder, want the world to think better of us.  They want the world to see the American justice system at its best.

Really? They hate us. They chant death to America. They burn us in effigy and we give them billions, and F-16′s, and armored tanks.

As they laugh their way to the bank and the airfield.

And when they kill us, we don’t even send in reinforcements for our own, fighting for eight hours in Benghazi.

And we want them to like us?

Honestly? I don’t much care about what the world thinks of us or our criminal justice system.

They come here to kill us and we worry about what they think of us?

I don’t want to show the rest of the world how our justice system works.  I honestly don’t give a damn.

They say you’re planning on coming here.  But hope springs eternal, and maybe the system will work and that watch list you’re on will stop you.

But I imagine they’ll let you in.  And if they do, I can only pray that they’ll activate that outstanding bench warrant against you for larceny.

And what’s that? You can’t afford an attorney?  Too damn bad.

And I have an idea.  You and your son should be stripped of your citizenship, tried in a military tribunal in Guantanamo.

Lady, you should not be allowed here.

We don’t want you here.  We should not be required to breathe the same air as you.

We should not be required to suffer the indignity of your presence.

Glenn Beck Discusses Saudi National Story on O’Reilly Factor (Video)

Last night, Glenn beck got a hearing of the Saudi National story on The O’Reilly Factor.

During the five minute episode, Beck offered the crib-notes version of the Blaze’s investigation into the government’s suspicious handling of the Saudi national who was briefly considered a suspect after the Boston Marathon bombings.

Via The Blaze:

The two former Fox colleagues talked about the possible reasons for DHS detaining the Saudi man and O’Reilly said he’s willing to give Beck “a hearing.”

Beck laid out the story to O’Reilly, showing him a copy of the front page of the report on Ali Abdulrahman Alharbi and explained that page two described the man as “armed and dangerous.”

Beck also talked about the warning that was posted by the government regarding the file.

“If you go in and try to look at any of these documents, there’s a warning – You’re breaking the law. You’re not allowed to look at it unless you are right in, and part of this investigation,” Beck explained.

I’m very pleased that Fox News was willing to hear his side of the story, after Brett Baier reported Napolitano’s side, the other day.

I agree 100% with Glenn Beck that there is no reason why any salient being would believe anything Janet Napolitano (or anyone else in this regime for that matter) says on any issue – especially this one. I don’t give the Regime “the benefit of the doubt”. They have proven themselves to be a completely untrustworthy and wretched hive of scum and villainy again and again.

Rep. Tom Cotton’s Epic Speech About The Regime’s Counterterrorism Failures

In a speech on the House floor, Wednesday, Freshman Congressman Tom Cotton (R-AR) echoed what many the Regime’s critics, (like me, for instance) have been saying about their counterterrorism failures.

“In barely four years,” he said, “five jihadists have reached their targets in the United States under Barack Obama.”

This video is spreading quickly with nearly 21,000 views, so far.

Text of the speech via The Blaze:

“I rise today to express grave doubts about the Obama Administration’s counterterrorism policies and programs,” said the freshman congressman from Arkansas. “Counterterrorism is often shrouded in secrecy, as it should be, so let us judge by the results. In barely four years in office, five jihadists have reached their targets in the United States under Barack Obama: the Boston Marathon bomber, the underwear bomber, the Times Square Bomber, the Fort Hood shooter, and in my own state—the Little Rock recruiting office shooter. In the over seven years after 9/11 under George W. Bush, how many terrorists reached their target in the United States? Zero! We need to ask, ‘Why is the Obama Administration failing in its mission to stop terrorism before it reaches its targets in the United States?’”

FBI Investigators “Stunned” When Interrogation With Dzhokhar Interrupted by DOJ Lawyers (Video)

Fox News reported this morning that some investigators are voicing concerns that they were not given enough time to question Dzhokhar under the “public safety exception” invoked by the Justice Department.

Two officials with knowledge of the FBI briefing on Capitol Hill said the FBI was against stopping the investigators’ questioning and was stunned that the judge, Justice Department prosecutors and public defenders showed up, feeling valuable intelligence may have been sacrificed as a result.

The FBI had been questioning Tsarnaev for 16 hours before the judge called a start to the court proceeding, officials familiar with the Capitol Hill briefing told Fox News. Moreover, the FBI informed lawmakers that the suspect had been providing valuable intelligence, but stopped talking once the magistrate judge read him his rights.

The exact timeline is unclear. A transcript of the court proceeding shows Bowler asking a doctor if Tsarnaev was “alert.”

“You can rouse him,” she says in the transcript.

“How are you feeling? Are you able to answer some questions?” the doctor asks Tsarnaev, who nods.

Although Bowler advised Tsarnaev, an ethnic Chechen and U.S. citizen, of his Miranda rights, it remains to be seen whether anything he told investigators before Bowler arrived can be admitted as evidence against him — or whether such interrogations would even be needed to convict him, given the amount of other evidence referenced in the criminal complaint signed by FBI Special Agent Daniel Genck.

Some Republican lawmakers have criticized the Obama administration for deciding against treating Tsarnaev as an enemy combatant, which would allow more time for interrogating him. The public safety exception to Miranda lasts only 48 hours.

The AP has talked to the same sources: “The officials tell the AP that Tsarnaev stopped talking altogether when he was advised of his constitutional right to remain silent.”

UPDATE:

Boston Terror Investigation – FBI have to discontinue questioning after 16 hours – Megyn Kelly:

UPDATE:

Oh my, I missed this, yesterday…

Via Gateway Pundit: The mom made some interesting comments on CNN:

“If they are going to kill him. I don’t care. My oldest son is killed, so I don’t care. I don’t care if my youngest son is going to be killed today. I want the world to hear this. And, I don’t care if I am going to get killed too. And I will say Allahu Akbar!“

Mom should always have been suspect for naming her oldest after a  Muslim conqueror and ruler known for his brutality and tyranny. The name was considered a pejorative in Persia. I’ve heard it’s like naming your kid “Hitler” or “Stalin.”

The Conversation reported this morning that not only was  Tamerlan Tsarnaev on Terrorist Watch List,  Russia had warned the FBI about him multiple times.

Reuters is reporting that sources close to the Boston Marathon bombing say Tamerlan Tsarnaev was listed on the government’s “highly classified” database of potential terrorists. “But the list is so vast that this did not mean authorities automatically kept close tabs on him.”

The sources said Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s details were entered into TIDE, a database maintained by the National Counterterrorism Center, because the FBI spoke to him in 2011 while investigating a Russian tip-off that he had become a follower of radical Islamists.

The database holds more than a half million names, “although they represented about 450,000 actual people, because some of the entries are aliases or different name spellings for the same person.”

But Tsarnaev was not put on the “no fly” list nor put on the Selectee List, which requires additional airport security.

Adding to the mounting evidence that DHS dropped the ball, Senator Richard Burr said members of the Senate Intelligence Committee has learned that Russia had contacted the United States multiple times about Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

In a closed briefing on Tuesday, members of the Senate Intelligence Committee learned that Russia alerted the United States about Tsarnaev in “multiple contacts’’ — including “at least once since October 2011,’’ said Richard Burr, a Republican of North Carolina, speaking with reporters afterward.

Not satisfied with limiting their incompetence to the United States, it appears that DHS/FBI tried to export it to Canada, theWall Street Journal reporting today, that  Authorities Had Delayed Action at FBI’s Behest, but Moved On Alleged Train Plotters After Blasts.

Iowahawk made the following points at the Conversation:

 Thankfully the RCMP was a little more concerned about their citizens than DHS was about ours.

To this farce we can now add the news that the Tsarnaev brothers were (allegedly) state-sponsored terrorists. The state was Massachusetts.

Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned.

State officials confirmed last night that Tsarnaev, slain in a raging gun battle with police last Friday, was receiving benefits along with his wife, Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, and their 3-year-old daughter. The state’s Executive Office of Health and Human Services said those benefits ended in 2012 when the couple stopped meeting income eligibility limits. Russell Tsarnaev’s attorney has claimed Katherine — who had converted to Islam — was working up to 80 hours a week as a home health aide while Tsarnaev stayed at home.

In addition, both of Tsarnaev’s parents received benefits, and accused brother bombers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan were recipients through their parents when they were younger, according to the state.

“The system worked” Big Sis said.

Bull.

Beck: Event File Created for Saudi National indicated He Was “Armed and Dangerous” (Video)

Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano finally admitted on Tuesday that the Saudi national was put on a terror watchlist after the attack –  this after refusing to answer questions about it, last week , calling South Carolina Rep. Jeff Duncan’s inquiry into the matter, “so full of misstatements and misapprehension that it’s just not worthy of an answer.”

Yesterday, during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on immigration reform, Napolitano responded to a question posed by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa).

“Before the [Tsarnaev] brothers became the focus of the investigation, authorities questioned a Saudi student who reportedly was on a terror watchlist,” Grassley said.  “I sent a letter to you this morning asking for answers to questions about the bombers and how they interacted with your agency, I trust you will promptly respond…”

“With regard to the Saudi student, was he on a watchlist, and if so, how did he obtain a student visa?” Grassley asked.

Napolitano firmly responded: “He was not on a watchlist.  What happened is — this student was, really when you back it out, he was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  He was never a subject.  He was never even really a person of interest.  Because he was being interviewed, he was at that point put on a watchlist, and then when it was quickly determined he had nothing to do with the bombing, the watch listing status was removed.”

Glenn Beck has been claiming for days that he has documentation that the Saudi national who was once a “person of interest” in the Boston Bombing case, and later cleared is indeed a terrorist, and was connected to the bombing.

On his radio talk show, this morning, Glenn dropped the hammer, saying that Big Sis could serve “jail time for perjury”, and she will be “the first to fall.” He said that the event file, (a copy of which he has in his possession) indicated that Alharbi was “armed and dangerous.”

“That’s on page two”, Beck teased, as he has only revealed page one, thus far.

Here are a couple of new points, as Beck related them:

• The event file created for Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi indicated he was “armed and dangerous”

• Alharbi was admitted into the country under a “special advisory option,” which is usually reserved for visiting politicians, VIPs, or journalists.  The event file cover page indicates he was granted his statuswithout full vetting.

• One of the first excuses given by law enforcement when confronted about Alharbi’s pending deportation was an expired visa.  But according to the event file, his visa is good until 11-NOV-2016.

• The event file indicates he entered the U.S. on 08/28/12 in Boston, MA but says he is a student at the University of Findlay, in Findlay, Ohio.  He has an apartment in Boston, and doesn’t seem to have been a full-time student in Ohio.

• When a file is created in the system, the author(s) are notified via email when it is accessed and given the email address of the person accessing, so there is a record within the government data system of who was there.  It was amended to remove the deportation reference, then someone later went in and tried to destroy both the original event file and an amended versions.  We won’t say who at this time, but copies have already been made.

•  The original event file was reviewed and approved by two high level agents – Chief Watch Commander Maimbourg and Watch Commander Mayfield.

Beck explained: “Derogatory information reviewed...That means, we have been presented bad information…and it was reviewed, and found to be sufficient.  Subject has One (1) prior event...[That means] when they opened this when he was at the hospital, they found he’s already in the system.”

“A 212, 3B [is] the biggest warning we can put on anybody,” Beck explained for those unfamiliar with the term.  “You do not put people’s name on there easily…this is a terrorist designation, and there is a panel of agencies that you have to go and make your case to.  It’s not like you’re standing in the hospital room and they say: ‘Make him a 212,3B.’   And if they ​are, they’re abusing their power….It is so rare that somebody’s name is taken off outside of death, that none of ours sources can tell us that it’s ever happened.  It is laughable what Janet Napolitano said yesterday.”

Video: Greg Gutfeld And The Five Dissect And Expose Muslim Extremism And its Apologists

After a full week of watching the left go from trying to blame the tea party for the Boston bombing, to cautioning people not to speculate about motives once the suspects were identified, to actually making excuses for them, The Five’s Greg Gutfeld has had enough.

“What do hacks do when they’re wrong about terror?” Gutfeld asked.  ”They cling to relativism. Yes, Muslim extremism is no different than any other kind of extremism – but in order to make that stick, you’ve got to really suck at math.”

I think he’s hit on something! Liberals are notoriously bad at math!

The Conversation: News Alert: Boston Marathon Bombing Suspects Motivated by Religion not Ben Affleck Movies:

Via the AP:

Two U.S. officials say preliminary evidence from an interrogation suggests the suspects in the Boston Marathon attack were motivated by religion but were apparently not tied to any Islamic terrorist groups.

Someone alert MSNBC host, Melissa Harris Perry, because over the weekend, she bloviated that Tsarnaev’s faith is about as relevant to the investigation as Ben Affleck movies.

Yes, really.

Her panel guests agreed and added that Americans have to “otherize” violent actors in order to absolve themselves from responsibility for or connection to their violence.

Actually, no. I feel no responsibility for, or connection to, what they did in Boston. Only seething anger, sadness, and revulsion – aka normal reactions.

“We don’t really know,” said Harris-Perry, throwing her hands up about the discussion into the Tsarnaev’s motives. “The younger brother, he’s getting all kinds of tweets from his friends. I think part of the answer is that it’s still an open question.”

Wrong again. By the time they had this discussion it was no longer an “open question.” It was pretty darn obvious that they were motivated by radical Islam. You had to be willfully blind not to have picked up on that, by then.
