And no one accused these bombers of not being American (you are using some loaded language here--trying to build a strawman?). McVeigh and Nichols also rejected societal values. That's the basic foundation of why we lock people up. With people who are not yet citizens we have the more expeditious and cheaper option of removing them from society without internal incarceration.Someone can be born in our culture and do what these two did: No one would accused McVeigh and Nicols of not being American.
So what you're saying is that terrorists are anti-social. That I can agree with.And no one accused these bombers of not being American (you are using some loaded language here--trying to build a strawman?). McVeigh and Nichols also rejected societal values.
I've heard nothing indicating that either of these boys have been to Chechnya since they were young children. Who is reporting that that would be relevant to these bombings?
Huh? Combined with all we know about them, it doesn't sound like a "covert domestic terror cell" at all. <shrug>Seems they did have friends in their circle, but those friends were as blindsided as we are they did what they did. That to me sounds like a covert domestic terror cell.............

Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev flew in and out of John F. Kennedy Airport last year and was out of the country for six months, and investigators said they want to know if he received any terror training while he was overseas, NBC 4 New York has learned.
Travel records obtained by NBC 4 New York show Tsarnaev left New York on Jan. 12, 2012 for Sheremetyevo, Russia. He stayed overseas and returned to JFK on July 17.
Interesting news. It's amazing how rapidly new news is being found and presented these days. Thanks for the update.
I'm glad that that's not being reported that way by any media, though. Thanks for the clarification.
Well, the older one was recently in Russia for > 6 months.
Shouldn't being out for over 6 months be a problem?

The uncle is ripping into his nephews pretty liberally, calling them losers and declaring their actions atrocities.
The suspects were found because they committed a robbery and shot a campus police officer, not because anyone recognized them.
