“Consider the old man is on deaths doorstep, that might not be long”
I wonder how long the Rooskies are going to let this go on. It might be amusing for a while to tweek the US, but there comes a point where it becomes a liability, and this might be it.
Being most ignorant of all things in general, could you elaborate? What do the “Rooskies” have to do with this?
He would die naturally for sure and a crazy mom too. Imagine an outcry from international right groups if they would be arrested or shot? They are a kind of celebrities now.
I actually believe Tamerlane was left unmolested by Russian security services and hinted to FBI as a terrorist instead for a reason of being a legal US resident.
If you remember a story he was pal-pal with a Canadian boxer he met while living with aunt in Toronto. They both traveled to Dagestan ‘for jihad’ and Tamerlane flew back to Boston the next day his pal was shot along with a group of islamists.
He wasn’t with a group at the time but his phone was tapped and whereabouts well known to counter-terror authority.
Tamerlane was probably allowed to leave based on a fact his arrest or death would produce enormous scandal in Western media and some negative reaction from Obama. There possibly could have been some sort of ‘Tsarnaev list’ of Russian officals ‘guilty of atrocities’ for mistreatment of poor innocent soul compiled by McCain’s office.
