#1 A specialist team of CIA and FBI interrogators
I have something of an idea about how I would like to ask questions of this fellow, but I'm something of a Neanderthal.
I understand there are more revealing techniques.

#2 Lets hope the FBI gets it right this time. If there are cells then they have gone to the winds and hunting them will be interesting...

#3 Dzhokhar is said to have run his brother over as he escaped in a stolen car while Tamerlan lay handcuffed on the ground

Makes sense - No survivors, especially if the elder Tsarnaev left orders not to be taken alive.

Apparently the younger one changed his mind about his own fate once the open air hit his wounds.

#5 Apparently the younger one changed his mind about his own fate

Or put his gun in his mouth, pulled the trigger... and missed his brain, which one article claims is the cause of his throat wound.

#6 Lord Garth: They are saying that those two men were part of the three questioned earlier in the week. Also that they're being deported on immigration charges.

Though it's interesting to note a consular vehicles picked up two women from the same apartment complex. We may not be looking at a terrorist cell so much as "Cheerleading" cell. Only the Tsarnaev brothers took it farther than anyone else in the group thought about doing.

#7 "Only the Tsarnaev brothers took it farther than anyone else in the group thought about doing."

Or had the guts/stupidity to do, Charles.

#8 If the FBI investigators are allowed to do their work, we may get somewhere. However, there are high level administrators up the food chain that may not want the investigations to follow all leads. Just sayin'

#10 Or put his gun in his mouth, pulled the trigger... and missed his brain

Which rather reinforces the "no one gets taken alive" order.

#11 IIUC, IOW the Boston Marathon terror bombings was only for starters???

#12 The 12 angry men are the reason I didn't much care for the "mission accomplished" press conference after Joker Tsarnaev's arrest. Still a lot more work to be done.
