THIS is what you should ask ! UPDATED w/ Info We need those photos again, that show them at the scene and then leaving. I've been through so many threads that I have no idea where I saw them. ;o( Quoting: U3 are you talking about the 4chan photos? I posted the link to one of the threads (where I saw photos) up above. And someone else posted the 4chan photos. Still looking for the photo that shows the 2 guys that were against the building...out in the street, looking at the scene....but not the small one, the big photo. "We are the music makers.

So it's a way for the gov't to keep employing the people they trained but who got tired of being sent to every sh-thole in the world to fight BS fights for no good reasons. They're hired because they present a more cost effective way of putting the best trained individuals on the ground wherever they're needed. It's cost effective because the gov't doesn't pay their salary 24/7 365, they pay only when they're working. And no pensions, healthcare, risk pay etc. Wtf is their function though? They didn't do shit to prevent it or to help after it happened. Pictures show most of them behind the Finish line after the explosions. "We are the music makers. And we are the dreamers of dreams."

It seems they were observing, reporting and then left. Edit: 1) The 2 ops guys standing against the building by the finish line, just before the explosive went off. (Scroll down to second photo) [link to i.imgur.com] 2) These are the guys, that were standing against a building just down from the Finish line, not far from where the explosive went off. Then, in this photo, you can see they walk straight out into the steet to observe the chaos. Interesting how strategically placed they were for the first explosive. [link to i.imgur.com] 3) After they report it, here's a photo of them behind the finish line, probably headed for the black SUV with the dish on top that left the scene in a later photo.

And I mean IF they were there for a drill... What was their mission according to you guys? And does the outfit/gear fits the mission? Peace |

At the lower left of the screen (behind the guy with the blue jacket) are three more people wearing the Craft International signature uniforms: dark jackets, khaki pants, camo combat boots. Running away from the blast. One appears to be a woman. [link to www.cbsnews.com] MtBarb |

Not to mention photos of specops and where they were as well as what they were doing. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 36430087 all these pics for us to figure it out like it was supposed to be seen. EXACTLY. Who the heck is taking all these aerial photos - out of what windows? And why are they taking multiple pictures of the crowd, of police and other things that have nothing to do with the race?? All these pics, just to keep us chasing our tail in circles. |

As you can see on the images, they immediately deployed radiation detectors etc. Their job is to gather intelligence for other agencies. Ensuring that the responding agencies have the right information. Their jobs would have been to try and determine if there were any other risks involved for responders, such as radiation, chemical, biological agents dispersed etc. These groups are basically at EVERY large event, since large events are prime targets for terrorism. It doesn't mean that it was a known threat, ALL events are treated as potential targets. |

Craft is one of the best out there too. And they believe more in America then 7/8ths of the posters on GLP, and have shown that by putting their asses on the line multiple times before being hired so you keyboard commandos out there can slam the US as much as you want. In case you forgot, people die for those rights for you, assholes. These operators are bound by very strict contracts on what they can and cannot do on an assignment and those terms are strictly laid out. Had they shot one the guys that's on the run now, asshats here would be yelling they were executing people at will and that would be another furor. There is probably some intel out there that was heard before the Marathon happened. What that was, who knows. But as of now there's so much we don't know, and we can conjecture till our keyboards wear out but it's still conjecture. Until you find some hard evidence that Craft contractors were being nefarious, we have to assume they were there for a reason. Besides, they stick out like sore thumbs and if they weren't supposed to be there, dontcha think they would blend into the crowds rather then walking down the middle of the streets? Sometimes the only conspiracies are those in our minds and reality is a strange truth. |
