Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
Who did it? That’s the question on everyone’s mind after two explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday killed at least two and injured as many as 100 people. Boston police say they uncovered two additional homemade bombs that were also set to go off. There also was an explosion at the JFK Library just south of downtown Boston that may or may not have been related to the others.
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick called the bombings “an attack” during an afternoon press conference. As details become more clear, some terrorism experts say the explosions carry the hallmark of a foreign terrorist group.
“The list of suspects is long; any number of people have an axe to grind against the United States,” said Ken James Ryan, a terrorism expert at Cal State University, Fresno. “It could be any number of people: Al-Qaeda and North Korea, or any other wannabee organizations. Who knows? At this point someone will take credit for it.”
