Details have emerged about the bombs used in the attack the killed three people and and injured more than 170 at the Boston Marathon yesteray.
What was in the bombs? How were they developed and manufactured? Who has used this type of bomb before? Here's what you need to know.
1. The Bombs Were Made From Pressure Cookers
According to recent reports, the devices were made from pressure cookers. A similar bomb-making strategy was used in one of the devices used in the 2010 Times Square bombing in New York City.
2. They Resemble IEDs Used in Afghanistan
IEDs, or Improvised Explosive Devices, is essentially a homemade bomb. AP reports pressure-cooker bombs "have been used in Afghanistan, India, Nepal and Pakistan, according to a July 2010 joint FBI and Homeland Security intelligence report." Such devices can be triggered remotely with a cell phone. Boston shut down cell phone service in the wake of the attack.
3. The Devices Were Reportedly Transported in Backpacks or Duffle Bags
According to NBC News, the devices were transported in backpacks:

4. They Were Reportedly Put in Trash Cans
Then, after they were transported to the finish line at the Boston Marathon, they were dumped into or near trash cans. Reportedly, the bombs were designed to look like pieces of trash so people wouldn't notice them. Other reports say they were left on the ground.
5. They Were Filled with Ball Bearings
The devices were apparently filled with ball bearings, based on the material removed from victims. In addition, they contained shards of metal and nails as well. At a 5 p.m. EST press conference, officials confirmed this, and said they found "pieces of black nylon, which could be from a backpack”... [which were] sent to Quantico, Va., for analysis."Comment -

Sounds like Al-Qaeda or some jihadist terrorist, but still could be a chance this was some NWO type trying to expand the reach of anti-liberty policies.Comment -
Weakly made by all accounts. But did enough damage. God bless everyone.Comment -
Doctors said that they removed nails from people as well along with bb's and ball bearings.Comment -
So pressure cookers should be banned because they kill people, right?Comment -
I think it's more likely domestic. International would have taken credit. Harder to catch the domestic.Comment -
Michael Savage interview Walid Shoebat on what happened in Boston the other day

I wonder if these probable domestic terrorists will spend any gitmo time??Comment -
if i am not mistaken you are already trying to wipe them out, which ironically is the real reason for terrorist attacks in the united states
the US has a military presence in almost every country on earth, and the middle east is were you have a more 'active' presence, which is why the biggest threat to 'homeland security' is the middle east
these people are not evil, or atleast, they are not more evil than you. they dont attack the US just because, they were provoked, their countries were invaded, their people were slaughtered and their resources stolen. funny how when us citizens are killed the killers are condemned as evil coward terrorist, but when the us military kills innocent civilians in the countries were 'peace operations' are being carried out then its a justifiable mistake and the pentagon apologizes and expects the world to forget about it and move on
these are poor countries, they dont have an army to defend themselves and they probably feel that small scale individual attacks are the only option they have left in order to fight back
and the easiest solution to stop terrorist attacks is to get your troops out of the middle east, but offcoarse the US government doest want you to realise that because they dont want to leave the middle east, lest their oil and gun corporations see a fall in profitabilityComment -
did they figure out who did it yet?Comment -
Rifleman does seem to be tapped.Comment -
It's still crazy in downtown Boston today. National guard out.Comment -
even though the it resembles something done in Afghanistan, I still think it was done by a domestic terrorist. With the internet being what it is today, I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to find out how to make something like this online (granted I wouldn't know, have never searched). Like many have said, if it were a terrorist group, I think someone would have claimed responsibility by now.Comment -
they are swarming
