I hope I don't offend anyone by putting this link

I think that site is supposed to be "humor".

There was a bomb, people died and many got hurt.

Bullhockey! I'm not even going to entertain that website with a response. There may be a lot more to the story than most will ever know, but it was all too real.

X2 total bullsh!t. People died. Tell the parents of the dead 8 year old that it's a fake and their son is still alive. They buried him yesterday.

sorry guys I can only go by what I read these were put on facebook and some of it is questionable --I just wanted to get some facts of anyone they may of been there

That is pretty offensive to anybody with any intelligence. Believe what you want.

I live on the other side of the world im only asking you guys your there not me

There's never anything wrong with trying to learn the truth. No offense taken. The site is offensive beyond belief, but your quest for knowledge is admirable.

So in a nutshell, here's what happened:

Yes, there was a bombing. 3 people were killed including an 8 year old boy. 18 people had their legs or arms blown off by the blast. Over 140 people were injured by the bombs, which were packed with nails and ball bearings so they would do maximum amounts of damage. Several of the people that were injured are still on the critical list and are fighting for their lives. Two brothers have admitted they did the bombings. One of them was killed in a shootout with police, and the other, after a massive manhunt, is in police custody. He was gravely injured in the shootout and is in a hospital under guard and chained to his bed. There is also some question as to their having outside help in the making of the bombs because the timing mechanisms that were used were very sophisticated and not something you would be able to just learn from a book or the internet. The brothers are both Islamic radical terrorists, and it appears the older brother was the more radical of the two. More info will come out in the following weeks I'm sure.

I hope that clears it up somewhat for you.
