Obama calls 'heinous and cowardly' bomb blast at Boston Marathon 'an act of terrorism'

President Obama labeled yesterday's bombing attack on the Boston Marathon "an act of terrorism" and praised Americans who "refuse to be terrorized."

"This was a heinous and cowardly act," Obama told the nation this morning, less than 24 hours since bombs ripped apart Boston streets. "The FBI is investigating it as an act of terrorism."

With details still scarce about the twin bombings at the marathon's finish line, Obama said it's not clear if an organization or lone wolf carried out the deadly deed.

"What we don't yet know, however, is who carried out this attack or why," the president said.

"Whether it was planned and executed by a terrorist organization -- foreign or domestic -- or was the act of malevolent individuals. That's what we don't yet know. Clearly we're at the beginning of our investigation."

The president said he was impressed by first responders and average citizens who rushed to help the injured.

"The American people refuse to be terrorized because what the world saw yesterday ... were stories of heroism and kindness and generosity and love," Obama said.

"Exhausted runners who kept running to the nearest hospital to give blood and those who stayed to tend to the wounded, some tearing off their own clothes to make tourniquets."
