This entire story is so tragic. Tragic that innocent people were killed and maimed on a beautiful day in Boston on Patriot’s day.
The lost life of this young boy from Chechnya is also a tragedy. From all accounts he did have a promising future ahead of him in high school. His older brother is a thug, criminal and wife beater sociopath whose muslim extremism is just an outlet for his antisocial behavior. The younger without a father and then without a mother left in total control of his brother and his jihadist handlers ( I have no doubt there is one if not more) never stood a chance and will pay with his life, one way or another.
To find the Sheiks and Imams responsible they will follow the money. These wealthy foreigners sit pretty in diplomatically protected places while they systematically destroy the lives of vulnerable youths. True evil. Send in the drones.
Waaaah....he made his choice, he alone chose his path.
Unfortunately, young guys can sometimes be pretty easily manipulated. I seriously doubt the 19-year-old was the mastermind. That would be extremely unusual. I think he was following his older brother and probably other older mentors. However, he still had the ability to say no or to go and report the whole plot to the police. So I’m not excusing him. He will pay for this with his entire life, and he should.
All of that said, if it hadn’t been for the influence of others, he might have stood a real chance to turn out a decent person instead of the total murdering scumbag he became.

Yes, that’s the sense I’ve had of this too. The older brother was the angry, unstable Islamist, and little brother just followed along behind (or was bullied, pushed and bribed into it). That said, the place he followed his brother to is a pretty evil place.
On a side note, I’m glad it’s little brother who survived rather than big brother. The older one might have managed to hold out information. I think this one will sing like a birdie if they just use good cop/bad cop on him. And while he may not know much compared to older brother, even a little may lead the Feds right to the beginnings of this operation. (Because you KNOW someone with more smarts conceived this and put them up to it!)
From the very first mention of the heinous MUSLIM atrocity, each following second of every succeeding hour of each passing day was another individual chance for any character he might possess to assert itself.
Hence, having refused literally thousands and thousands of opportuities for choosing the humane course and blowing the whistle, he chose to side with the jihadi cult of barbaric murderous vermin.
Year after excruciating decade of seemingly endless days of death within life, in an institution devoid of any sort of human warmth, is infinitely more befitting to avenge the untold suffering caused by his unspeakably vile crimes.
Execution is too merciful by miles.
Oh, cry me a river!
Did you ever hear of something called FREE WILL?
The only tragedy is that they were in this country at all.
It’s time to start aggressively deporting these imams and shutting down their mosques. They’re not non-profits.
