| Chechen President Says American Upbringing to Blame |
| 2013-04-19 |
| [WEEKLYSTANDARD] The Chechen president has apparently released a statement that blames the suspects' American upbringing for their alleged terrorist activity. "Tragic events have taken place in Boston. A terrorist attack killed people. We have already expressed our condolences to the people of the city and to the American people. Today, the media reports, one Tsarnaev was killed as [police] tried to arrest him. It would be appropriate if he was locked away Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! and investigated, and the circumstances and the extent of his guilt determined. Apparently, the security services needed to calm down the society by any means necessary," says Chechen president Ramzan Kadyrov, according to BuzzFeed. "Any attempt to draw a connection between Chechnya and Tsarnaevs -- if they are guilty -- is futile. They were raised in the United States, and their attitudes and beliefs were formed there. It is necessary to seek the roots of this evil in America. The whole world must struggle against terrorism -- that we know better than anyone else. We hope for the recovery of all the victims, and we mourn with the Americans." |

| #2 So Presidnet Kadyrov, if it isn't his biology than is it his secular or non-secular education? Can't be macro/pop culture because, well, Americans don't blow up kids at sports events - could it be their micro/local culture? What is it Mr. President - liberalism, islam, college culture? |

| #1 Let's see... Chechens blow people up in Chechnia. Chechens blow people up in Russia. Chechens blow people up in America. I am sensing a bit of a disconnect in the Chechen president's argument. |
