That's beyond absurd to have a "bomb drill" during a public event like the Boston marathon.

Any co- ordinator. with half a brain would not do a practice drill at a time like that.

To be honest, it is a dumb question.

It may have sounded like a dumb question, but apparently, there is reason to believe they were. I just can't remember which news report was talking about it. In any case, it doesn't make any difference now.

You come across fairly confident gdemoss that the current evidence is false.

The reason?

The reason I come across fairly confident to you that the current evidence is false is due to your perception of what I have said. I have not said any such thing. I have simply refused to give credibility to that which the media puts forth as truth as if they are always delivering real and actual information to us. I was not comparing our Lords trial to anything. I was using our Lords trial to show perfect evidence that people can be innocent but seen guilty by those who try them. I am not saying these people are innocent, nor guilty. I have no idea and still hold to the position that it would be arrogant of me to think I do know.

Peace is only in Christ.

So you think there are folk who are arrogant for having a view on this crime?

Having a view is one thing...stating it as fact is another. I'm not sure at this point, that all evidence will ever be revealed to the public. That leaves room for a lot of speculation. When bits and pieces of evidence are fed to the public, regardless of the source...people start to play connect the dots to get at the truth of the matter. Consequently there will to be holes/gaps in all theories proposed. IMO anyway. The truth will out eventually...but then people will have to decide whether they want to believe it or not, much like 9/11.

Ok Petra - my view is that the 2 brothers are guilty.

If I'm arrogant for having that view - well that's too bad.

I believe they are guilty as well...I believe that has pretty much been established. I'm referring to all the other bits and pieces of "evidence" floating around. This is where the speculation and theories come into play. Until all the evidence is in, the story remains unfinished. So no, it is not arrogant to believe these two brothers are guilty, but that seems more of a fact than an opinion. Unless of course some one put them up to behaving so guilty after the bombing, but that is pretty unlikely, not impossible, but very unlikely.

whether or not you think its absurd, the Boston Globe had published this fact before the Marathon, whether or not the two guys used this information I have no idea? I don't think anyone here has said they were not guilty, its just a big black eye on an agency that might of been running a practice of what if someone planted a bomb at this event, and even with a whole team of navy seals running a scenario right under their noses the real deal happens

this wouldn't be the first time this same kind of thing has happened, the same thing happened on 911 which is why fighter jets couldn't find the real threats as they were running manuevers for this type of scenario

Great Britton had the same thing with they"re bombing of the subway

its just amazing of how either incredibly lucky these terrorist are, or how indepth their intel is

I thought I heard reporters talking about a bomb drill. But was not sure that I heard correctly. I thought that was rather odd. I never heard of a bomb drill during a actual event such is that.

We must continue to pray!

Well you would think there are more people involved other than the two brothers.

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topics,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
