Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned.

The welfare department has been stonewalling State Senator Shauna O'Connell for months, regarding EBT fraud, but the Herald broke the embargo by calling various Democrat State Senators and asking, "when will the welfare department stop giving benefits to the terrorists?"

Fearing loose lips, Mass. Gov. Deval Patrick folded, and gave permission to release this information.

But not before killing all Republican reform amendments to a pending welfare bill.

This is Massachusetts, after all.

Some FReepers have mentioned that since they were escapees from Russian “terror” they got bonus benefits.

You’d at least think they’d give them a Caddy or Lincoln instead of German iron....

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

The state did not say when the Tsarnaevs began receiving benefits. But Health and Human Services spokesman Alec Loftus said the Tsarnaevs “were not receiving transitional assistance benefits at the time of the incident,” a reference to the marathon bombing that killed three and injured 260.

So I guess the benefits stopped today.

I once heard that MA pays more unemployment benefits and welfare than any other state. The figure that I recall for unemployment is $800 per week. It doesn’t sound right, but that’s what I remember.

You know what happens when you give a dog a bone?

He snaps at you.

Welfare breeds contempt for the self and for the benefactor to all who receive it.

Like all pseudosacraments of socialism and atheism, it breeds evil, envy, sloth, contempt, immorality, and death.

I once heard that MA pays more unemployment benefits and welfare than any other state. The figure that I recall for unemployment is $800 per week.

That sounds about right. But the State just announced that benefits are being cut by 13% because of... drumroll please... sequestration.

I love how he refers to the two scumbags as "flash-bang" and "speed-bump." LOL ...

Single mon w a 3 yo kid, I don’t think so.

[mirkwood]

State sponsored terrorism.

[caww]

His wife was working ‘80’ hours a week as a home health care giver....at least recently,(Her Attorney said)....while he stayed home..unemployed. Her wages disqualified them from assistance then.

[Uncle Chip]

It is looking more like state sponsored terrorism — and that state is Massachusetts with it welfare benefits.

[aimhigh]

The living brother is being cared for at Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital. That must irritate some Muslims.

[Lurker]

I hope they pumped him full of blood donated by Jews.

[caww]

YEs..I’m sure it does..however they are planning on moving him as some of the victims are very upset he’s in the same hospital with them.

Michelle Malkin: America's Insane Asylum for Jihadists, Hustlers and Frauds
Creators Syndicate | April 24, 2013 | Michelle Malkin FR Posted by jazusamo

In the aftermath of the Boston Marathon killing spree by foreign-born jihadists, see-no-evil bureaucrats in Washington are stubbornly defending America's lax asylum policies. DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano told the Senate Tuesday that the screening process is rigorous, effective and extensive.

These people can't handle the truth. Or tell it.

The Tsarnaev brothers reportedly were granted asylum by "derivative" status through their parents. After entering on short-term tourist visas, the mother and father (an ethnic Chechen Muslim) won asylum and acquired U.S. citizenship.

Next, younger son Dzhokhar obtained U.S. citizenship. Older son Tamerlan, whose naturalization application was pending, traveled freely between the U.S. and the jihad recruitment zone of Dagestan, Russia, last year before the bombers' gunfight in Watertown, Mass., last week left the Muslim terrorist dead.

Though they had convinced the U.S. that they faced deadly persecution, the Tsarnaevs' parents both returned to their native land and were there when their sons launched last week's terror rampage. Authorities will not reveal any details of the sob stories the Tsarnaevs originally spun to win asylum benefits for the entire family.

The whole thing stinks. And it's an old, familiar stench. Immigration lawyers have been working the system on behalf of asylum con artists for decades. The racketeers coach applicants with phony stories and documents from "chop shops" and game their way through "refugee roulette."

Asylum and refugee claimants are being rubber-stamped at all-time-high rates. Government data analyzed by the nonpartisan TRAC website show that "the odds of an asylum claim being denied in Immigration Court reached an historic low in FY 2012, with only 44.5 percent being turned down.

Ten years ago, almost two out of three (62.6 percent) individuals seeking asylum lost their cases in similar actions. Twenty years ago, fewer than one out of four (24 percent) asylum...(Excerpt) Read more at creators.com ...

The Boston bomber brothers lived lavishly, drove luxury cars and had the leisure time and money to buy and build deadly bombs...with no visible means of support. Monthly welfare check would not suffice---they had to have several other sources of income.

A look at Tamerlan's reading list on Amazon shows he researched forging phony identities---a practice very common in the latino community.

======================================

NJ BERGEN RECORD CIRCA 2004---Pelcastre brothers, Angel and Jorge, Dallas, Texas, were a walking threat to US national security, expert document forgers who, for a few thousand dollars, could give anyone a new identity (many latinos establish multiple identities in order to ride the US gravy train).

The Texas brothers were a "one-stop shop" for a myriad of fake US documents, including birth certificates, Social Security cards, driver's licenses----for any state in the US------ passports and resident alien cards, said NJ state police.

The Texas brothers turned a NJ hotel room into a business office and were readying a massive cache of fake Social Security cards for delivery to a local NJ identity broker. Officers happened upon two cars bearing Texas plates in a NJ hotel parking lot.

The Texas brothers were followed to a NJ office supply store nearby where they purchased computer supplies. Officers then followed the Texans to a NJ storage facility in Secaucus, NJ, where the Texans loaded several boxes into a car. One of them stood lookout. After a search, police recovered laminating sheets with built-in security features, pages of blank documents waiting for fake names and information, finished documents, computers and software to create the fake IDs.

All told, the haul was worth about $500,000 on the street when sold to "impoverished illegals." Police also recovered $6,000 in cash, which was the first payment from a NJ fake document broker for a shipment of 500 phony Social Security cards. ####

Several year ago, a TV report concerned a US Post Office somewhere near the Mexican border that was used by illegals to send money home. It was so busy the US Govt. put in several trailers to handle the business.

===========================================

The Third World knows massive financial benefits would derive from "immigration reform"......Third world pressure groups exchanging votes for foreign aid---zillions of us tax dollars going straight into the pockets of corrupt third world federales.

THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES W/ PRESSURE GROUPS IN THE US (here illegally sending billions back home): Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominica Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico (stateside), Salvador, Spain, Uruguay, Venezuela.
