RRD: According to the UK's Daily Mirror the FBI is searching for the remaining members of a terrorist sleeper cell connected to the Boston Marathon Bombing. I wish to be very clear: if there are more terrorists planning to stage an attack & we keep up our guard then we may prevent another attack & save innocent people from being killed. If on the other hand this story is false then at worst we will be needlessly on guard for a few additional days. I first posted a link to this story by way of Gateway Pundit & then,today I linked to an article by Robert Spencer referencing it both because I think that it is important for us to remain on guard until/unless we learn that the Mirror story is false,& also because Spencer made some interesting additional comments. Having said that I must note that so far as I know--as of 4/22/2013 10:30am--the Mirror remains the only source for this story. Why is this important? Because the Daily Mirror is not exactly legendary for its fact checking. It is a tabloid.
Before Piers Morgan emigrated to the U.S. to obnoxiously lecture us on the evils of the Second Amendment he was circulating photos of alleged atrocities which proved to be fakes. Subsequently after he was fired,the paper was embroiled in a libel suit.

So this report should be taken with a grain of salt.
