Tell Me Again...Are They Just Effing Up, Or Is There an Ulterior Plan?

One might be forgiven for asking.

CBS News, April 19:
The FBI admitted Friday they interviewed the now-deceased Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev two years ago and failed to find any incriminating information about him.

The Boston Globe, April 22:
Senator Lindsey Graham said Monday the FBI told him it was initially unaware Tamerlan Tsarnaev had traveled to Russia early last year because of a clerical error: His name was misspelled.

The UK Guardian, April 25:
The name of the Boston Marathon bombing suspect was added to a terrorist database by the federal government 18 months before the deadly explosions.

Yeah, okay. We knew the FBI was covering its butt. And still are.
Authorities had previously said Dzhokhar exchanged gunfire with them for more than an hour on Friday night before they captured him inside a boat covered by a tarpaulin in a suburban Boston neighbourhood backyard. But two US officials said on Wednesday that he was unarmed when captured, raising questions about the gunfire and how he was injured.
But, this is the money quote (pay close attention):
US intelligence veterans have said accusations of “intelligence failures” after such events are routine and warned that mounting criticism of the FBI risks encouraging future infringements of civil liberties.
Got it? So just shut up.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
