UPDATE: Father describes Tamerlan as an accomplished medical student and an “angel.”
BOSTON (CBS) – The uncle of the two men suspected in the Boston Marathon bombings says they had lived together in Cambridge for about a decade.
Tsarni says Dzhokar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev immigrated to the United States around 2000 or 2001, and have lived at the same Cambridge address since that time.
According to Tsarni, Dzhokar completed high school in Cambridge and was attending college somewhere outside of Boston.
Tsarni, who says he hasn’t been in touch with the brothers since around 2009, tells WBZ-TV he believes that the brothers’ parents may have moved back to Russia.
He described Tamerlan as a “loser.”
Tsarni was shocked when he was informed of the unfolding situation that left Tamerlan Tsarnaev dead in a shootout.
“He deserved his. He absolutely deserved his,” Tsarni said. “They do not deserve to live on this earth.”
You predicted the bombers were white, right wingers- are you disappointed in being wrong?
One wonders – it seems they were good students, and one was an athlete.
“Disappointed”? No. Surprised, yes. But they ARE white.
Being a good student or an athlete doesn’t stop you from going mad about something. And then spreading it around.
The huge background problem we need to dissolve to ever make the craziness stop is right in that sentence “They do not deserve to live.” It’s the idea that the death penalty can be right which lets the crazies-for-a-cause kill once they take the law into their own hands.
Al Qaeda is a right wing organization and these guys are white. At this point nobody knows nothing. Everybody is speculating. Except for CNN and FOX who really want this to be an al Qaeda operation. As of now nobody is wrong about anything. A few things are perfectly clear however, these guys didn’t have an escape planned and they really didn’t want to die “for their cause.”
Chechen rebels are pretty right wing. Schevernadze was ‘repressing’ these kinds of rebels because they were neo-nazi in outlook and organization. Assuming that’s what they were.
Of course we also let them all in to study medicine and not return to their home country, why? When there are plenty of Americans, black white and brown and yellow, who don’t get in to med school, and yet IMHO are just as good and smart as the many thousands they bring in.
Why?
Does anyone suppose that the CIA was involved in any way in the Chechen War? If they were, and I’d bet money on it, then some of their “helpers” at some point would need to have been relocated to the United States. Uncle Tsarnaev seemed really pissed off at his nephews. Like they were biting the hand (or country) that fed them. This is a large puzzle with lots of missing pieces at this point.
Yeah. The whole presumption of innocence thing is SO never ago!
