Sounds like what they are announcing now is that these are the exact suspects. They are going to release profiles or pictures of these men. So, your remark sounds like sarcasm but it sounds like they are going to be announced as suspects.

Im not being sarcastic at all. They are dressed the way private contractors for the military dress when traveling…whether by habit or to be deceitful I don’t know…

2 guys with black jackets, khaki pants and big black back packs, dressed identically. You’re right, every day occurrence.

Those aren’t just khacki pants but 511 tactical pants. Operators wear them but so can wannabes I guess. This really is starting to stink.
 
Well, they’ve just given a description of the chief suspect and I don’t see how it matches any of the guys highlighted in the photos. They said he was wearing a light coloured hoody and a black (or maybe they said grey) jacket, and a baseball cap worn backwards.

I don’t understand all that stuff about spooks. I see nothing sinister about the young men’s dress.

And they mentioned black backpacks and what does it take to make people understand? Scary? I think the site of the two guys wearing the same kinds of clothes looks a bit ominous.

And speaking on a cell phone, some of the description is jibing. 2 persons of interest and in some pictures, one of the guys is wearing a white cap.

But lots of people had backpacks and the two guys were standing almost beside each other whilst on the phone so maybe they were doing an ET. There’s nothing unusual about young people dressing alike. In any group of youngsters, you may be guaranteed that the majority will be dressed similarly. Looks like the guy with the red tshirt isn’t in the frame after all. He was my no. 1 suspect.

the tan 511 tactical pants are very telling. They are either wannabes or operators.

I think the guy in the red shirt may well end up as one of the 2 suspects.

And the other guy does wear a white cap at times. Also, yes they dress a like but all the way to the brown leather workboots? That I’m not sure about.

They also said on the news, one guy has a backpack on his back, the other guy “carries a bag”, that matches these as well.

The only things that don’t directly match is saying one was wearing a white cap backwards AND wearing a white or gray hoodie, it sounds like they say but it could be under the big heavy coat.

Let’s remember, there are actually more than the two main guys with the backpacks as well. Gray hoodie?



Overall, I don’t think they look too suspect, “could” though… also, there is an image of another guy, sort of slender built with a gray white hoodie with long hair parted down the middle, doesn’t look very suspicious but I suppose he could.

I’ll have to take your word for it because that means nothing to me.

I wish the authorities would make up their minds. First there was an arrest, then there was none, then the Mayor or somesuch said it could take months before anyone was apprehended and then they gave a description of the prime suspect identified from cctv. I hope all these photos in the public domain won’t be an obstacle to convicting the perpetrators. I suppose we’ll find out soon enough.

Goodnight.
 
It’s odd is that this guy seems to wear a black, white and this white and green cap in the pictures… That or someone who looks like him



Naw, this guy is a different guy and wearing headphones, he’s probably an okay person, he just looks a lot like the other one from far off.

I never noticed him. He wasn’t highlighted in any of the photos. His backpack looks very heavy - more so than the ones highlighted earlier. Maybe he is the same guy. Who’d be an investigator having to sort through all that.

Sleep time for me…early start in the morning.
 
I’ll bet that we see at least one of the amputees running in next year’s event. I certainly hope so.
 
I’m still confused! What is the point of a terrorist act when the terrorists do not tell us what they are protesting against? It’s like an exclamation point without a sentence,totally meaningless.
Yes,the act was pure evil. However, it looks like it was also pure stupidity.
Actually, even if the terrorists told us why they committed the crime,the act would still be stupid. The only positive (in the terrorist’s mind) result would be to influence our government’s policy. Do they really think a terrorist act would make us more sympathetic to their cause? Dang thats dumb!

Nothing about it makes sense. Right wing nuts normally go after government cites, left wing nuts normally go after corporate/financial house stuff, Terrorist organizations normally claim credit.

True nutcases go for carnage. The goal is chaos, any philosophy they become attached to is just an excuse for creating it, not the motivation. Unfortunately, this may be something along those lines- somebody who just wanted to blow stuff up and any religious/political affiliation they latched onto was just the excuse they needed.

It means the explosion didn’t work as they thought, thanks be to God!
 
Here are some surveillance pictures of the suspects. I know a few have been posted here earlier, but this collection seems to be a lot more complete. Original source: 4chan (re-posted, though, on imgur…so you don’t have to deal with the nastiness of 4chan)
