[quote=Anonymous]You are conflating political propaganda passed through a few cherry picked members of a political party( Colin Powell being one) and the motivations that political party had for doing same ( the profit that can be made in war, and settling old scores) with the motivations of literally hundreds of journalists who are reporting on the brothers back ground, many of which are WSJ reporters reporting from Moscow or Dagestan who have been covering the beat for decades, speak Russian well as well as other dialects, have real insight and lack the political agenda of the Cheyney, Rumsfeld, Powell, and who was their director of CIA ? Different horse. To call a spade a spade here is not equal to saying that " all the muslims in the world are in a world wide conspiracy to get us", its just to say that the Tsarnaev brothers had chosen to channel their rage and frustration towards a target indentified for them by radicals who use their religion and their cultural bak ground to win and hold their loyalty. The evidence is not just that Tamerlan happened to have one video on his you tube account. Why are you deliberately minimizing ? I suggest you turn off the internet for a while and pick up your phone and talk to some real journalists in the field. Get on the phone with the people at Mosocw bureau of WSJ, or people down at Freedom House who know the Caucasses well, and hear what they have access to. DCUM is a bit of a phone booth echo chamber,and does not reflect " commonly held views" , not by the standard of info that is, perhaps not commonly available in Washington, but available if you have a few friends who work in the field.[/quote]
