**New York Times:** `U.S. Engaged in Torture after 9/11, Review
Concludes `__:
WASHINGTON — A nonpartisan, independent review of interrogation and
detention programs in the years after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist
attacks concludes that “it is indisputable that the United States
engaged in the practice of torture” and that the nation’s highest
officials bore ultimate responsibility for it.  The sweeping, 577-page
report says that while brutality has occurred in every American war,
there never before had been “the kind of considered and detailed
discussions that occurred after 9/11 directly involving a president and
his top advisers on the wisdom, propriety and legality of inflicting
pain and torment on some detainees in our custody.” The study, by an
11-member panel convened by the Constitution Project, a legal research
and advocacy group, is to be released on Tuesday morning.

**New York Times:** `Terrorist Plots, Hatched by the
F.B.I. `__: 
“Only the government could have made a ‘terrorist’ out of Mr. Cromitie,
whose buffoonery is positively Shakespearean in its scope,” said Judge
Colleen McMahon, sentencing him to 25 years. She branded it a “fantasy
terror operation” but called his attempt “beyond despicable” and
rejected his claim of entrapment.  The judge’s statement was unusual,
but Mr. Cromitie’s characteristics were not. His incompetence and
ambivalence could be found among other aspiring terrorists whose
grandiose plans were nurtured by law enforcement. They included men who
wanted to attack fuel lines at Kennedy International Airport; destroy
the Sears Tower (now Willis Tower) in Chicago; carry out a suicide
bombing near Tampa Bay, Fla., and bomb subways in New York and
Washington. Of the 22 most frightening plans for attacks since 9/11 on
American soil, 14 were developed in sting operations.  Another New York
City subway plot, which recently went to trial, needed no help from
government.  Nor did a bombing attempt in Times Square, the abortive
underwear bombing in a jetliner over Detroit, a planned attack on Fort
Dix, N.J., and several smaller efforts. Some threats are real, others
less so. In terrorism, it’s not easy to tell the difference.

**F.B.I.:** `2011 Request for Information on Tamerlan Tsarnaev from
Foreign
Government `__
(April 19, 2013): The two individuals believed to be responsible for the
Boston Marathon bombings on Monday have been positively identified as
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, now deceased, and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, now in custody.
These individuals are brothers and residents of Massachusetts. Tamerlan
Tsarnaev was a legal permanent resident and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is a
naturalized U.S. citizen. Charges have not yet been filed against
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and he is presumed innocent.  Tamerlan Tsarnaev, age
26, was previously designated as Suspect 1, wearing a black hat.
Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, age 19, was designated as Suspect 2, wearing a
white hat. Both were born in Kyrgyzstan.  Once the FBI learned the
identities of the two brothers today, the FBI reviewed its records and
determined that in early 2011, a foreign government asked the FBI for
information about Tamerlan Tsarnaev. The request stated that it was
based on information that he was a follower of radical Islam and a
strong believer, and that he had changed drastically since 2010 as he
prepared to leave the United States for travel to the country’s region
to join unspecified underground groups.  In response to this 2011
request, the FBI checked U.S. government databases and other information
to look for such things as derogatory telephone communications, possible
use of online sites associated with the promotion of radical activity,
associations with other persons of interest, travel history and plans,
and education history. The FBI also interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev and
family members. The FBI did not find any terrorism activity, domestic or
foreign, and those results were provided to the foreign government in
the summer of 2011. The FBI requested but did not receive more specific
or additional information from the foreign government.
