'Dead terror suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev's best friend had his 'throat slit' in an unsolved murder in 2011 as family members today told of how he was known to 'manipulate and use' his brother.

The older of the suspected marathon bombers was the black sheep of the family who 'used his younger brother' and had fallen out with an uncle he called on the eve of his death, relatives have said.

It has emerged the terror suspect's best friend died in a gruesome unsolved murder two years ago, just after Tamerlan said he had 'one single American friend'.'

More like less adequate. The media here stinks. I'm even more annoyed by the lack of editing done. Its like they hire idiots to research and compose. All they do is enter opinions and forget to use spell check

There are several conservative/right British newspapers:

The Times
Daily Mail
The Sun
Daily Telegraph

One aspect may be that the terror cell financed itself by selling drugs—and that was also the source of some of the nice cars
a few of those people seem to be driving.

That angle needs to be looked into.

Two of the murdered friends were jews.

Whoda thunk it?
