    This is fascinating in its own right, the militant militant branch RIRA.

    To an extent, but there are more IRA members there than anywhere outside the Emerald Isle. Just a thought.

    Interesting. I would think it'd be hard to hide two explosives like that so close to the finish line. Wonder if a suicide bomber(s) make sense?

    I thought about that, but why express frustration with the government in such a way? You'd think they'd blow up a government facility of some sort.

    if true there's going to be a lot of people wondering why the police weren't sweeping the finish line beforehand.

    Well since they have also found 2 more devices, I would "think" that would rule suicide bomber would be ruled out. Boston has now shut down cell phone traffic.

    It's a holiday in North Korea (Kim Il Sung's birthday) and they had their annual marathon yesterday to celebrate.

    is this "official?" I don't doubt people are reporting it, but we know in these situations the major news networks have been wrong repeatably because they want to break the story first.
