Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of the two Chechen brothers identified as the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing, was a self-described “very religious” Muslim boxer who yearned for Chechen independence and who posed for a photo essay entitled “Will Box for Passport.”
He was identified as the suspect who died early Friday morning during a shootout with police in Watertown, Massachusetts — a suburb of Boston. His brother, who is still on the run as of this publishing, is named Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
“I don’t have a single American friend. I don’t understand them,” Tsarnaev told Kirn.
“Tamerlan says he doesn’t drink or smoke anymore: ‘God said no alcohol.’ A Muslim [SIC], he says: ‘There are no values anymore,’ and worries that ‘people can’t control themselves.’”
“Tamerlan says he doesn’t usually take his shirt off so girls don’t get bad ideas,” according to one of Kirn’s captions. “I’m very religious.”
Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a student at Bunker Hill Community College and a Golden Gloves boxer who trained at Wai Kru mixed martial arts gym in Boston and competed in a national Golden Gloves competition. The Wai Kru gym could not be reached for comment.
Prior to his national Golden Gloves competition in Salt Lake City, photographer Johannes Kirn profiled Tsarnaev in a photo essay entitled “Will Box For Passport,” quoting the young boxer as saying that he is a ”very religious” Muslim, which prevents him from drinking, smoking or removing his shirt around women, and that he cares deeply about the independence of Chechnya from Russia.
“Tamerlan says he loves the movie ‘Borat,’ even though some of the jokes are a bit too much,” according to a caption.
The more religious these cultists are, the more violent they become. Religion of peace, eh?
So it wasn’t Evangelical White guys with exploding Bibles after all.
Well, now he is a very dead Muslim murderer.
and so his values are incompatible with and the antithesis of the values of natural rights and freedom of a rational culture and a free society.
I usually ask do they post at Kos or DU, but in this case I don’t think they even post at “muslimKos.”
I believe that Chris Mathews owes a bunch of people an apology.
You won’t get any leftists to admit their prejudice against white Christian Americans is wrong.
HELLO you little suck ups at CNN, NBC, ABC and CBS...
IF this killer had been a self described member of the Tea Party would you report it? Well, read this ...
Typical pattern of Muslim immigrants. First arrivals come here to improve their standard of living. The next generation has never experienced hardship and become radicalized. It is happening all over, especially in UK. All it takes is exposure to some Imam preaching Koranic verses.
Nope, but you won't know that reading the New York Times or watching CNN - yesterday, today - or tomorrow... Facts get in the way of their biases...
Dzhokar. Joker?
Someone once made the same observation about “radical Islam” in France. The immigrants from Algeria who drive cabs and run newspaper stands for a living aren’t radical Muslims, but their children who have grown up in a welfare state where they don’t have to work for a living often are.
You hold your breath. I’ll start counting.
Just being a good Muslim and trying to murder his way into heaven.
yeah, but his very religious views don't stop him from killing innocent unarmed civilians. Guess I'm not impressed he won't take off his shirt around women ... what a stupid 'value' for a person who will happily kill women and children. Lowlife, lowlife, lowlife.
Has anyone heard CNN use the term "Muslim"?
If the killer at been in the Tea Party - CNN would have used that term every 30 seconds....
Millions of Americans are out of work!
Immigration reform now!!
10 year moratorium on ALL immigration...
Jokhar is actually a name of a first Chechen President who initially declared jihad on the West. He was killed by Russian air force in 1996 in a kind of sophisticated precision strike (AWACS aircraft intercepted his mobile call and guided a missile fired by a fighter-bomber. It was an epic head-shot).
