Now that we know the Boston bombing was an extremist Muslim attack, what are we going to to about it?

This is a new kind of terrorism in America. Small scale is much more dangerous and difficult to stop than large scale. This is exactly how Israel has been attacked for years. So. .. what do we do now?

Update 2:

@MEH --- The probability that they weren't part of any organized plot directed from an islamic group only makes our current situation worse. It means the TEACHINGs they are hearing are prompting individuals to act without direction from above. This means it will be even more difficult to prevent in the future.

    The liberals/progressives (IE democrats) are always in denial. Because it is they who don't see reality and don't want to admit that there is good and evil in this world. In their mind of video game fantasy, they believe this earth can have a utopia of sugar plums, cotton candy, smiley faces, and fluffy clouds lining the streets of paradise.

    They may have been playing with their baby crib mobiles too long and were not given the love by their mothers. This is why they can't face reality.

    What should be done, is to Repeal the 1965 Immigration Act, open Ellis Island to check out both mentally and physically any legal immigrant that wants to live in the USA. The borders need to be fully secured once and for all with Calvary border patrols against illegal trespass and entering. We need to return America to its privilege status of living. We need to keep out all those who want to bring us ill. The whole world is NOT entitled to live in freedom and liberty unless they desire it, and prove they deserve it first!

    And never forget the mission of the muslims. It is too annihilate all others (non-muslims).

    Judeo - Christians (Jews & Christians) can never survive in peace together with muslims. It just won't work. Centuries prove this fact. Islam must be banned in the USA like in Australia.

    It seems like they were Islamists but they were very young and I don't think they were part of an international terrorist organization. They likely planned this on their own. They're from Russia - Chechnya - and nobody wants trouble with Russia.

    It's probably the new world reality, it's reaching the entire world now not just the Middle Eastern areas. The FBI has done a great job preventing other attacks so far but when individuals are willing to blow themselves up or kill themselves it's very difficult.

    It's extremism/fundamentalism. What do you do about that? It's fairly inbuilt with a lot of people and you can't target a whole cultural group of law abiding Islamists cos a few are bad.

    DO you average AMERICAN citizen's know how much you DESTROYED PRETTY MUCH EVERY MUSLIM country?!?!

    If i was an average citizen in

    1) Afghanistan

    2)Iraq

    3)Iran

    I would HATE THE ABSOLUTE **** OUT OF AMERICA.

    These kids arn't Organized Terrorists, they are people who proabably had an AMERICAN DRONE blow up half their family 5 years ago.

    The attacks that are happening and the ones to come, are not going to be from Organized Crime, but from Random Individuals who have been suppressed in their Countries by America for years.

    From the schools and water treatment centers being blown up in Iraq, to the Navy fleet making sure Iran doesnt even blink, or to the multiple drone stikes everyday in afghanistan that kill more friendly's and civilians then they do Terrorists.

    All i know is you CANT do ALL THAT without pissing a few million people off, and having some sort of repercussions.

    YOU ALL SHOULD READ THE NEWS!! Yes, we have 100% proof that both of the boys were and are muslims. No it is not a rumour. If you know anyone in the FBI or CIA or police department, like some of us do, then you would have know this 48 hours ago. The news media wants to keep this quiet because they don't want civilians (like some us) to get angry at muslims. I heard on the radio Chris Matthews was saying "he was hoping this bombing was done by a White Supremicist" Wow, what is this world coming to and now people are scared to know that these guys were Muslims. This is really difficult to believe that people are this ignorant.

    I agree with Denise. we need to protect our entire border and coastline. no one enters illegally, and every legal entry must be approved with a quarantine and thorough screening for illness and background evaluation as to their history and why they want to live in the USA before any of them get the privilege of entering. The '65 immigration act was disaster and we are all living the effects of it today. thank you mr. johnson and ted kennedy. you did us well. screwed our lives for decades. hope you all enjoy eternity in torment. oh and the brimstone you smell? it is not bar'b'cue. lol

    To the people that are saying they weren't Muslim, they come from Chechnya, Russia, which is right next to Georgia and has a history with Al Qaeda and Bin Laden. It's very likely they were Muslim terrorists. The bombs they used were even very Al Qaeda-esque

    All you know is what the Zionist owned media tell you and that's lies. It's all a Mossad false flag event done on the day that Israel's Independence day coincided with Patriots Day.. The suspects are people fooled into acting the part of terrorists in the drill that were happening. They did the same for the London 7/7 bombings.

    "We" know nothing of the sort! The motives behind the attack are yet to be determined and assumptions and accusations only muddy the waters.

    We know nothing of the kind. You are jumping to conclusions based on limited information.
