Suspect arrested in Boston Marathon bombing
CNN says that the feds have arrested a suspect in the Boston bombing (Hat tip: The Jawa Report). They haven't actually described who the person is yet, but one of the investigators does say:
Update: newer reports say there've been no arrests, again.
"If your experience and your expertise is Middle East terrorism, it has the hallmarks of al Qaeda or a Middle East group," former FBI Assistant Director Tom Fuentes said. "If your experience is domestic groups and bombings that have occurred here, it has the hallmarks of a domestic terrorist like Eric Rudolph in the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics bombings."It still remains to be told whether the person they've busted is the monster who committed the crime.
Fuentes said he has investigated both types of terrorism -- from Iraq to the United States -- and finds the Boston attack has elements of both. "It has the hallmarks of both domestic and international (attacks), and you can see either side of that."
Update: newer reports say there've been no arrests, again.
