Shocker (Boston Marathon bomber)

Talking Points Memo ‏@TPM 45m

Report: Alleged Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev was in possession of right-wing literature http://bit.ly/15yY0Uv

One of the two alleged Boston Marathon bombers was in possession of right-wing literature that dealt with gun rights and Adolf Hitler, according to a BBC report scheduled to air on Monday.

The BBC learned over the course of its reporting that Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the older of the two bombing suspects who was killed during a confrontation with police days after the marathon bombings, possessed material asserting that 9/11 and the Oklahoma City were government conspiracies. One article dealt in his possession dealt with the "rape of our gun rights," while another suggested that "Hitler had a point."

Isn't uncle closely connected to oil folks.
Everything about that day made me don my tin foil hat. It coincided way too neatly with a library opening and just after the Benghazi bullshit had lost its steam. Oh that Benghazi BS was also way too neat - would have done followed the ReTHUG meme to a T - Obama would have been their new Carter.

Truth will out.

Which is more complicated that the oil business - but just barely.

and more that the little brother, in custody, is rarely mentioned in any of these plots (the triple murder, the carjacking, this) and, when he is, it's stated - emphatically - that he was dominated by the older brother.

Not that this excuses him if he did do it (and I believe in the presumption of innocence until proven guilty or until a plea), but it certainly seems as though authorities/reporters are beginning to mitigate his role à la Lee Boyd Malvo.

In any case, to your topic: I think Tamerlan Tsarnaev read A LOT about various nefarious things (and some very advanced subjects, as well). This is allegedly his Amazon wish list: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/registry.html?ie=UTF8&type=wishlist&id=1PNVMAW2D4CT1

Interesting, eh?

Guess he did not know about archive.org where he could have gotten the Gibbon and the Suetonius for free.

Paranoid ideology is polymorphous and universally applicable.

The world is diseased. There was a better time in the past but we are under assault now from the satanists/jews/feminists/atheists/environmentalists/western imperialists/capitalists/communists/homosexuals. They have a perverse agenda that is seeking nothing more than the ruination of good, decent, hard-working people just like me. None of my failings can be attributed to myself. They are all the results of satanists/jews/feminists/atheists/environmentalists/western imperialists/capitalists/communists/homosexuals. Because they struck the first blow, no retribution can be considered disproportionate or unjustified.
