The Boston Marathon bombings suspect who was killed in a police
shootout features a YouTube page listing links to men he identified as
"terrorists" and Islamic teachers, AFP reports.The Russian-language YouTube page of the dead suspect, identified as
26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, features various links to websites pulled
by YouTube as well as to those on Islamic teachings, according to the
report.One link, called "It's Only Sunnah," features a nearly hour-long
speech by an Islamic teacher named Shaykh Feiz Mohammed, while other
links are entitled "Terrorists" and "Islam".Meanwhile, Tamerlan's 19-year-old brother Dzhokhar, the other suspect in the bombings who remains at large,
has a social website in Vkontakte, the Russian equivalent of Facebook,
stating that he went to elementary school in the Dagestani city of
Makhachkala in southern Russia between 1999 and 2001.The site says that Dzhokhar graduated from Cambridge Ringe &
Latin School in Massachusetts in 2011, identifies "Islam" as his world
view, and "career and money" as his main goals in life, according to AFP.It also lists information about Chechnya and Islam as well as
different mosques around the world, and retells some jokes about the
unfair treatment of Muslims in the North Caucasus.One of the jokes reads: "They have this riddle in school. There is a
car. Inside are a man from Dagestan, a second man from Chechnya and a
third man from Ingushetia. Question -- who is driving the car? Answer --
the police."A manhunt for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, believed to be "armed and dangerous" continues.
Authorities told Boston-area residents to stay in their homes on Friday morning. Police forces sealed off much of Watertown, near Boston, as they killed one suspect and continue to hunt for the other, according to reports.State Police announced in the early hours of the morning that they would be going “door to door, street by street, in and around Watertown.” They warned residents to stay inside and not answer the door unless the person is clearly identified as a law-enforcement officer.(Arutz Sheva’s North American Desk is keeping you updated until the start of Shabbat in New York.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today expressed concern over the
alarming number of conspiracy theories circulating online in the
aftermath of the terrorist bombings at the Boston Marathon, including
spurious claims that Jews, Muslims or the government were secretly
behind the attack.Anti-Semites, racists, bigots and extremists have exploited the
attack, accusing Jews, Muslims and others of being responsible, even as
law enforcement officials and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have
warned against jumping to conclusions about who was behind the bombings,
which killed three and injured at least 170 people as the April 15
marathon was entering its fourth hour.“It is disturbing that once again extremists are taking advantage of a
national tragedy to promote conspiracy theories rather than letting the
hard and detailed work of the investigators take its course,” said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director. “America should come together in the aftermath of terrorism. We should not allow the extremists and bigots to divide us.”
Just minutes after the attack, anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists took to the Internet and blamed Jews and Israel for the bombing, according to information compiled by ADL’s Center on Extremism.For example, an anti-Semitic Web site called “NoDisInfo” published an article claiming: “Zionist Jews Strike Again, Murdering Three in Boston.” The article alleged that Jews “control the security” and therefore will not be caught, but that if they were, “the diabolical schemes of world Jewry would be known to virtually the entire universe.” A day later, the site published a follow-up article claiming that pressure cookers, which were used to construct the bomb, are a “Zionist specialty.”Anti-government extremist organizations and other hate groups also reacted to the attack with conspiracy theories stating the attacks were “false flag” operations orchestrated by the U.S. government to curtail civil liberties and impose a military state on American citizens, according to the ADL.Similar falsehoods were propagated after 9/11.Meanwhile, the suspects, one of whom has been killed, are reported to be of Chechan origin. Chechnya is a predominatly Muslim country.

Gov't sources: Boston bomb suspect went to Russia
By | Associated Press – 13 mins ago APR 19,13
WASHINGTON (AP) — Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev traveled to Russia last year and returned to the U.S. six months later, government officials told The Associated Press.Investigators believe that Tsarneaev and his brother Dzhokhar are responsible for the deadly Boston Marathon
attack that killed three people and wounded more than 180 others. The
26-year-old Tsarnaev died in a police shootout overnight. Dzhokhar is still being sought.The officials spoke on condition
of anonymity because they couldn't talk publicly about an investigation
in progress. Tsarnaev traveled from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, according to one of the officials.The ethnic Chechen brothers lived in Dagestan, which neighbors the Chechnya region in southern Russia. They lived near Boston
and had been in the U.S. for about a decade, one of their uncles said.
There are no known ties at this point to Chechen extremist groups, one
of the officials said.
Boston Terrorist Had 'Terror Links' on YouTube
The Boston Marathon bombings suspect who was killed had a YouTube page listing links to men he identified as "terrorists".

Rape of five-year-old sparks protest in India's capital
Reuters – 31 mins ago APR 19,13
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - The alleged rape of 5-year-old girl by a male neighbor in the Indian capital New Delhi triggered a protest march on Friday to a city hospital by her relatives and political activists, reawakening concerns about safety for women and girls.Despite a public holiday, several hundred people gathered outside a municipal hospital in eastern Delhi, where the girl was admitted for treatment on Thursday.
They demanded better law enforcement and chanted slogans on gender rights, television reports showed.
The girl's rape, which left her in a critical condition, revived memories of the brutal gang rape by five adult men and a teenaged boy of a 23-year-old physiotherapy student on a bus on December 16 in New Delhi. That woman died of her injuries.B.N. Bansal, a doctor from the Swami Dayanand Hospital, told reporters, that the young victims had undergone an operation."The next 48 hours will be crucial for her."The girl, whose parents work as laborers and live in a slum in the outskirts of Delhi, went missing from home on April 15, according to Manish Sisodia, an official of the Aam Aadmi Party which organized Friday's protest.She was found with bruise marks on her body in the suspect's house in a semi-conscious condition on Thursday by police after her parents had registered a complaint, media reports said.The suspect, who fled, allegedly held the girl hostage for three days during which he raped and tortured her.Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was deeply disturbed by the incident, a statement from his office said.The unprecedented protests by thousands of people across India after the December assault had forced Singh's government to pass tougher laws to fight gender crimes in March.But activists on Friday said the laws were not enough to deter sex offenders in India's largely patriarchal societies."If you thought just bringing in a new law will stop crimes, your are wrong. They will reduce, but won't stop. You need community policing to stop these crimes," activist Kiran Bedi told an Indian TV channel.(Reporting By Satarupa Bhattacharjya and Sankalp Phartiyal; Editing by Michael Roddy)

Young NKoreans train to seek 'revenge on US'
By | Associated Press – 9 hrs ago APR 17,13
PYONGYANG, North Korea
(AP) — North Korea's newest batch of future soldiers — scrawny
11-year-olds with freshly shaved heads — punch the air as they practice
taekwondo on the grounds of the Mangyongdae Revolutionary School. Students and teachers here say they're studying harder these days to prepare for a fight.Across the country, banners,
slogans and artwork have been redrawn to focus on fighting "the
imperialist Americans and their traitorous followers," a reference to South Korea.
Slogans on improving North Korea's economy had dominated since 2009,
but anti-American propaganda has re-emerged over the past year,
particularly following U.S.-led censure of North Korea's decision to
launch a long-range rocket and test a nuclear bomb.At the military school, where
students work on desktop computers without Internet access and practice
their English with chants such as "The respected Marshal Kim Jong Un is our father," classwork is infused with conflict."Because of the present
situation, I am trying to study harder, because I really think that's
how I can get my revenge on the American imperialists: by getting top
marks in class," one student, Jo Chung Hyok, told The Associated Press."It's my revolutionary duty," Jo said. "I'm working extra hard to get top marks in military subjects like tactics and shooting."The uptick in anti-American
sentiment comes on the heels of international condemnation and U.N.
sanctions for North Korea's long-range rocket launch in December and its
underground nuclear test in February, which Pyongyang
accuses Washington and Seoul of instigating. Joint U.S.-South Korean
military drills south of the border also have incensed Pyongyang.The anti-American campaign also comes as North Korea prepares to mark
the 60th anniversary in July of the close of the Korean War. The
three-year conflict pitting North Korea and China against U.S.-led U.N.
troops ended in a truce, not a peace treaty. The continued division of
the Korean Peninsula, and the presence of 28,500 American troops in
South Korea, has rankled North Korea's leadership.
For weeks, North Korea has threatened to attack the U.S. and South
Korea for holding joint military drills and for supporting U.N.
sanctions. Washington and Seoul say they've seen no evidence that
Pyongyang is actually preparing for a major conflict, though South
Korean defense officials say the North appears prepared to test-fire a
medium-range missile capable of reaching the American territory of Guam.Both sides have said that in order for dialogue, the other side needs to act.The U.S. says Pyongyang must bring down tensions and honor previous disarmament agreements before talks can begin.North Korea laid out a long list of preconditions for resuming talks
Thursday, including the lifting of U.N. sanctions, the end of U.S.-South
Korea military drills, the withdrawal of U.S. nuclear weapons assets
from the region a halt to criticism of North Korea. On Friday, it
reiterated a warning to South Korea to apologize for offending its
leadership before any talk of dialogue to defuse tensions.South Korea's Foreign Ministry called North Korea's demands
illogical, but in Washington, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry put a
more positive spin on Pyongyang's response."It's the first word of negotiation or thought of that we have heard
from them since all of this has begun," he said Thursday before the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. "I'm prepared to look at that as
at least a beginning, not acceptable obviously, and we have to go
further."The U.S. remains open to "authentic and credible negotiations," White
House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters aboard Air Force One. But
he said the U.S. has not seen any commitment from North Koreans that
they are willing to end their nuclear program.Inside the sprawling compound of the Mangyongdae Revolutionary
School, students are made aware of their government's latest invectives
against its foes, in addition to usual subjects of study: biology,
history, foreign languages."At the moment, the situation on the Korean Peninsula is tense, and
America is being bad to us," said Lt. Col. Kim Hak Bin, an administrator
at the military academy. "But you can see that the students here look
just as bright as usual, and life and classes are carrying on the same
as before."Our students are ready to go to the front lines whenever a war
breaks out, and they are now studying harder than usual," he said
Thursday.The school, located near the birthplace of North Korea's first leader, Kim Il Sung,
was created in 1947 to house, feed and educate the sons and daughters
of soldiers killed while fighting the Japanese who occupied Korea from
1910 to 1945.Today, the girls are housed in a separate academy named after Kim Il
Sung's mother, the Kang Pan Sok Revolutionary School in the western port
city of Nampho.Late leader Kim Jong Il attended the academy for eight months during
the Korean War, school records show. His son, current leader Kim Jong
Un, did not. His military education came from studying at the Kim Il
Sung Military University next door.During his 17-year rule, Kim Jong Il
elevated the importance of the army and poured much of the nation's
meager resources into defense. Military life became an integral part of
the North Korean identity.The students here are being groomed to serve as the "core" of the Korean People's Army, said biology teacher Ri Kyong Hui.A visit to the military academy offered a peek into how young North
Koreans learn to march and chant with such startling precision as
displayed in parades held on major anniversaries.A group of students, dressed in uniform, struggled to get their march
just right as an instructor adjusted their arms. One boy grimaced in
frustration. Inside, other students rehearsed for a performance, using
fake rifles as props.But boys will be boys, and the 11-year-olds who just joined the
academy at the start of the month were hardly examples of discipline.Suited up in light green and blue tracksuits, they squirmed, giggled and made faces as they practiced taekwondo.___Associated Press Television News in Pyongyang, and AP writers Hyung-jin Kim in Seoul, South Korea,
