The host stated that those relatives with the same last name as the perps are terribly fearful of vengeance directed at them right now...and that's probably a correct statement.
As far as the uncle goes, the Muslim "religion" teaches that it's okay to lie when necessary.....and that's why he's disowning his nephews right now......he's protecting his own fanny.
This whole family is disfunctional and clannish. They will lie about their bomber relatives because blood is thicker than water in their Muslim cultish belief.

the uncle is protecting Islam too:
Bombing suspects are Muslim, but uncle says Islam played no role
Islam’s rules regarding relatives are far more liberal than the rules followed by Chechyans ~ but what’s going on with the uncle is that he distanced himself from this crowd years ago for some reason. I suspect mental illness ~ but nothis, theirs.
