Series of suspicious incidents raises doubt over Boston bombings A double explosion in Boston; A suspicious letter sent to a US Senator, followed by another suspicious letter to the White House. A man stopped and questioned by Capitol Hill police over his backpack. This series of suspicious events took place within 48 hours, and the US is only halfway through the week. Authorities are not officially linking the events together, but they are trying to determine the significance of their timing. Meanwhile, observers following these developments have already started to question if the incidents were staged. Alex Jones, a widely known conspiracy theorist who broadcasts mostly on the internet and radio, suggested that the Boston bombings were a false flag--in other words, a secretive operation carried out by the government to make it seem like it was committed by another agency.
