This is completely typical of what we have seen from the terrorist-friendly Obama administration.
FBI Failed to Investigate Boston Bombers After Being Alerted by Russians of Tsarneav Radicalization 2 Years Before Bombing
Russian officials told the Obama administration and the FBI back in 2011 that Tamerlan Tsarnaev had become radicalized, but the terrorist-friendly Obama administration did nothing. (Similar to how the Obama administration did nothing to stop the terrorist attack of our Benghazi Consulate, and did not send help once the Benghazi terrorist attack began.)
If Obama, the Democrats, or the FBI had pulled their heads out of their asses for one minute they would have been able to stop the Boston Marathon Bombing.
- FBI agents failed to notify local police of Tsarneav dangers
- FBI agents failed to interview Tsarneav’s ex-girlfriend
- FBI agents failed to interview Tsarneav’s current wife
- FBI agents didn’t even go to Tsarneav’s mosque
Obama and the Democrats were probably too busy terrorizing Republicans and covering up their many crimes to bother looking into the Russian report that was received by the Obama administration at least years before the deadly Boston Marathon Bombing Terrorist Attack.
Two years before the Boston Marathon bombing, the FBI failed to vet thoroughly information from Russian officials that one of the bombing suspects might have a link to terrorism, according to a recent Justice Department inspector general’s report
Russian intelligence officials told the FBI in 2011 that Tamerlan Tsarnaev had become radicalized, and expressed concern that he might return to Russia and join extremist groups there. The Russians also wrote that Tsarneav had hoped to travel to Palestinian territories and wage jihad but didn’t go because he couldn’t speak Arabic
An officer with the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force in Boston opened a case file, conducted database searches, reviewed references to Tsarnaev and his family in closed FBI counterterrorism cases, performed “drive-bys” of his residence, made an on-site visit to his former college, and interviewed Tsarnaev and his parents, according to the report. The agent concluded that Tsarnaev wasn’t a threat, and closed the file
According to the report, the FBI agent failed to notify local police that he was investigating Tsarnaev, didn’t go to his mosque, and failed to interview his ex-girlfriend and current wife — actions that might have alerted the agent to Tsarnaev’s sometimes volatile behavior
In addition, the agent didn’t attempt to elicit pertinent information in the interviews he did conduct with Tsarnaev and his parents, the report said. The FBI agent didn’t ask Tsarneav about his plans to travel to Russia, changes in his lifestyle, or his knowledge of or sympathy for militants in Chechnya and Dagestan
Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his younger brother, Dzhokhar, are accused of last year’s Boston Marathon bombings. Tamerlan was killed in a shootout with police in a Boston suburb days after the bombings, and Dzhokhar is awaiting trial on terrorism and murder charges
The FBI agent, in his defense, said not enough derogatory information was uncovered to necessitate a visit to Tsarneav’s mosque and interviews his former girlfriends and wife, noting that his investigation was the least intrusive and in accordance with FBI protocol. The inspector general agreed
But when the inspector general asked why the agent did ask the relevant questions during his interview of Tsarnaev and his parents, the agent simply said he didn’t know why
Tsarneav had been arrested for slapping a former girlfriend, and had been thrown out of his local mosque several times for getting into shouting matches with preachers because they encouraged worshipers to celebrate American holidays, according to a congressional report released last week
Given the information the FBI had at the time, it’s impossible to know whether additional investigative steps would have changed the outcome of the bombing, the report concludes
The inspector general “determined that the additional database searches would not have revealed any information that was not already known to the Agent conducting the assessment. In addition, the DOJ OIG found that it is impossible to know what the former girlfriend and wife would have told the FBI in 2011 before the Boston Marathon bombings and while Tamerlan Tsarnaev was still alive,” the report states. “Therefore, it cannot be known whether these additional interviews would have yielded additional information relevant to the FSB [Russian] lead information.”
