Rep. Suspects Boston Bombers Likely Had Training
The chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Michael McCaul says he is to believe that the suspects involved in the Boston Bombing likely had training by others in doing such tasks. Rep. Michael McCaul is citing the type of device used in the attack (shrapnel-packed pressure-cooker bombs) and the weapons' sophistication as signs of training. It is said that homemade bombs built from pressure cookers have been used frequently as weapons by people in Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan. Al-Qaida's branch in Yemen once published an online manual on how to make one. I definitely think that the bombers had training. One doesn't simply make a bomb from scratch and have it work the first time around. I think he definitely was being taught by someone. You have to learn to make a bomb first before you go out into a public place and set it off.

I think r he need to stop blaming whomever they want.
ReplyDeleteI definitely believe that they had training and that they might have been hired. Many people have questioned how calm they appear to be in videos taken from security cameras around the area.
