You! Barely educated American! If you are dedicating such an enviable effort to studying the people, at least learn this: Their proper description: Chechens. Not Chenyans. Not Checnyans. Not any other number of permutations your fingers have concocted. Chechens. |

| but what if the investigation reveals that someone else did it? Again, their own father said they were framed and and he spoke with them by phone as recently as this week? |

Are you sure they did it? Fact that you read the "Times" makes you very suspect. |

It is a photograph released by the FBI, for Christ's sake.
And here, from the New York Times, referring to the older brother: “Because of his girlfriend, he hit her lightly, he was locked up for half an hour,” Mr. Tsarnaev said. “There was jealousy there.” Tamerlan later married and has a small child. He was interviewed by the F.B.I. in 2011 when a foreign government asked the bureau to determine whether he had extremist ties, according to a senior law enforcement official. |

What a weird flow of conversation on this forum, from killer to framing to boxing injury to victim.

I don't think they were framed. I'm sure their family is in utter shock and denial. Chechnya has a complicated history and being from there may have contributed to the older brother's feelings of disconnect. But he does seem influenced by radical Islam, specifically Salafism:

This thread represents DCUM at its best. Out in flyover country, the unintelligent uneducated rubes are all convinced that they were both guilty and is ready to hang the remaining brother from the nearest tree. I mean come on we are talking about the FBI and the parents are saying that they were framed. |

How is it possible that there are still people out there who do not know that The Onion is a humorous/parody newspaper. This is like thinking The Colbert Report is a real news program. You people are too stupid to be allowed to express your opinions in public. |

Boston Police officials said at the last press conference, that based on store security footage the store was robbed before they went in. They are not responsible. In the Boston area, robbing a Stop 'n Shop or 7/11 at gunpoint is like an everyday thing. |

From Washington Post :
The brothers who are alleged to have planted bombs near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday reached the United States in 2002 after their ethnic Chechen family fled the Caucasus. They had been living in the Central Asian republic of Kyrgyzstan and were prevented from resettling in war-racked Chechnya. In speaking about his boxing career in 2009, Tamerlan told a photographer that in the absence of an independent Chechnya he would rather compete for the United States than for Russia, a hint that past troubles were not forgotten. He appeared increasingly drawn to radical Islam. On a YouTube channel, he recently shared videos of lectures from a radical Islamic cleric; in one, voices can be heard singing in Arabic as bombs explode. “My son Tamerlan got involved in religious politics five years ago,” his mother, Zubeidat K. Tsarnaeva, told Russia Today television in an interview from Dagestan, the Russian republic bordering Chechnya where she and her husband live. “He started following his own religious aspects. He never, never told me he would be on the side of jihad.” FBI officials confirmed Friday that they questioned Tamerlan in 2011 at the request of the Russian government about possible connections to Chechen extremists. He was interviewed by the FBI in Boston, and the investigation found “no derogatory information.” His younger brother, who was widely known as “Jahar,” may have followed in his footsteps. “He talked about his brother in good ways,” said Pamala Rolon, who was the residential adviser in the dorm where Dzhokhar lived at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth. “I could tell he looked up to his brother.” Although terrorists from the Caucasus have struck in Moscow and other parts of Russia, the conflict in the region has never led to attacks in other countries. One possible explanation for the Boston bombings, said Aslan Doukaev, an expert on the Caucasus who works for Radio Liberty in Prague, is that the brothers were motivated by radical jihadism, not Chechen separatism. As the war in Chechnya wound down after Russian forces withdrew — they left formally in 2009 — violence has spilled into neighboring republics such as Dagestan, where the Tsarnaev family once found shelter and where the brothers’ parents now live. That conflict is increasingly marked by radical Islamic terrorism in an often vicious cycle of attack and reprisal between insurgents and Russian security forces. Tamerlan visited Dagestan last year, according to an official with knowledge of his travels. |

And from NBC News:
NBC 4 New York reported Friday that Tamerlan Tsarnaev flew in and out of John F. Kennedy Airport last year and spent six months out of the country, raising the possibility that he may have received terror training abroad. Travel records obtained by the station show that the 26-year-old left New York January 12, 2012, en route to Moscow. He returned to JFK July 17. Documents show a photo of a bearded Tsarnaev |
