Senior Boston Bomber Recently Turned Religious, Attended Anti-American Mosque

The media is still baffled, completely baffled as to the motives of the terrorists. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s favorite song was “We Will Dedicate Our Lives to the Jihad“. But what can a little detail like that tell us about him?

Nothing.

His aunt is equally baffled.

An aunt of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects said Friday the older brother recently became a devout Muslim who prayed five times a day, and she doesn’t believe the brothers could have been involved in Monday’s attack.

She said her brother was desperate when he found out Tamerlan dropped out of his university. She said he always demanded more of his children and said Tamerlan was his favorite.

Tamerlan wasn’t a devout practicing Muslim, “but just recently, maybe two years ago, he started praying five times a day,” she said.

Baffling.

He dropped out of the university and became more religious and listened to Jihadist sermons and music. And he attended a mosque which wasn’t terribly pro-American.

The Islamic Society of Boston, attended by Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, recently hosted a book event featuring a journalist who has been highly critical of the U.S. and U.K. “War on Terror,” which she described as a “war against Islam.”

The Islamic Society of Boston also encouraged its members to show their “support of the forgotten women of the War on Terror.”

The Islamic Society of Boston posted a graphic promoting the event on its Facebook page April 1, describing the plight of a British woman whose husband has been in Guantanamo prison for 11 years and encouraging people to “Put your profile in shadow in support of the forgotten women of the War on Terror.”

Again baffling.

Somebody help me here.... Who else attended an anti American place of worship? Pastor’s name was Jerimiah somebody, wasn’t it. Said something about chickens coming home to roost. Said God d**n America. Church was in Chicago, I think. Who was that guy?

Let there be no doubt. This failure was preventable and predictable. And it is solely the fault of the federal government. They had a head’s up on this guy 2 years ago and turned a blind eye to his radical connections in his local mosque and online. The FBI is paralyzed by political correctness. They see a young Chechen man with connections to a radical imam and radical websites, who then goes to Russia, and they do nothing to track him or obtain warrants. Wasn’t this all supposed to change after the intelligence screw-ups of 9-11? Oh, that’s right, even George W. Bush ordered intelligence services not to do racial profiling and Obama’s administration has just buried its head further in the sand. In my books, this is criminal negligence.

No doubt in my mind:

Obama administration has SLASHED budget for domestic bombing prevention by 45 per cent…

What I want to know is why there had to be such an effort to get public help to identify these two when the authorities had already questioned Tamerlan two years ago. Are the people who are supposedly protecting us actually this stupid? I know....that’s a stupid question....ugh!

Don’t we know a politician who attended a less-than-pro-American church/mosque?

“Why do we even have a DHS?”

To harass Christians and other enemies of Zero’s brave new world.

The Islamic Society of Boston.

It would make a good start to get their names and addresses, round the whole stinking bunch up and ship them out of the country.

That’s right every friggin one of them, and their families.
