Officials said more than 30 bombings and a shooting hit 12 different areas of Iraq, leaving 50 people dead and nearly 300 injured, making Monday the country's deadliest day since March 19.

As soon as the US took over Iraq, it became clear its interests were not limited to oil. In 2004, Paul Bremer, the then military head of the Provisional Authority imposed as many as a hundred laws which made short work of Iraq’s sovereignty.
The most crippling for the people and the economy of Iraq was Order 81 which deals, among other things, with plant varieties and patents. The goal was brutally clear-cut and sweeping — to wipe out Iraq’s traditional, sustainable agriculture and replace it with oil-chemical-genetically-modified-seed-based industrial agriculture.
With a single stroke of the pen, Iraq’s agriculture was axed, while Order 81 facilitated the introduction and domination of imported, high-priced corporate seeds, mainly from the US — which neither reproduce, nor give yields without their prescribed chemical fertiliser and pesticide inputs.

In the years before the Boston Marathon bombings, Tamerlan Tsarnaev fell under the influence of a new friend, a Muslim convert who steered the religiously apathetic young man toward a strict strain of Islam, family members said.
Under the tutelage of a friend known to the Tsarnaev family only as Misha, Tamerlan gave up boxing and stopped studying music, his family said. He began opposing the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. He turned to websites and literature claiming that the CIA was behind the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and Jews controlled the world.

Sure sounds to me that whoever this guy was , he is the person that influenced Tamerlan.
Yes he did view conspiracy web sites, but the article never said they influenced him. As usual BIN takes what they want from a article, then leaves the rest. BIN is one of the least reliable sources I have ever read, right up there with the National Enquirer.

Okay.. if you go to the actual source for this, it's about as casual a mention as it can be. This thread is just sensationalism. The actual article never mentions the book or the words "conspiracy" or "theorist or "infowars." If this was an effort to connect him to conspiracy theorists.. it's really weak.

Bomb suspect influenced by mysterious radical
By ADAM GOLDMAN, ERIC TUCKER and MATT APUZZO
Associated Press / April 23, 2013
Tamerlan took an interest in Infowars, a conspiracy theory website. Khozhugov said Tamerlan was interested in finding a copy of the book ‘‘The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,’’ the classic anti-Semitic hoax, first published in Russia in 1903, that claims a Jewish plot to take over the world.
‘‘He never said he hated America or he hated the Jews,’’ Khozhugov said. ‘‘But he was fairly aggressive toward the policies of the U.S. toward countries with Muslim populations. He disliked the wars.’’

This is not going to end well for you and I (aka, the people). The government's disdain for conspiracy websites/forums/theorists is NOT a conspiracy. It's a well known FACT. (for everyone calling this sensationalism). Ever heard of Cass Sunstein???

This with the article on the BBC about the guy who was wrongfully accused of being in on the bomb plot ending up dead tie together. They are targeting conspiracy websites. With fear on their side they could easily scare people into allowing them to shut down websites such as ATS simply because it "breeds terrorists".
The BBC article mentions how internet investigations should be banned. How else would you do this other than censoring the internet?
