Uncle: Tsarnaev boys were 'radicalized' | |||||
2013-04-20 | |||||
The uncle of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects told TODAY Saturday that he believes Dzhokar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev were pawns in a deadly scheme. "I strongly believe they were just puppets and executors of something of bigger scale," Ruslan Tsarni told Savannah Guthrie. He said Dzhokar, the younger of the brothers, was "used by his older brother. He's just another victim of his older brother. He victimized others, but he's been used by his older brother."
"There certainly were mentors,'' Tsarni said. "I was shocked when I heard his words, his phrases, when every other word he starts sticking in words of God. I question what he's doing for work, (and) he claimed he would just put everything in the will of God. It was a big concern to me. He called me 'confused' when I started explaining to him, make yourself useful to yourself and to your family and maybe you'll have extra to share with everybody else. "It wasn't devotion, it was something, as it's called, being radicalized. Not understanding what he is talking (about). He is just using words for the sake of the words and not understanding the meaning of it.''
"He said there is someone who brainwashed him, some new convert to Islam,'' Tsarni said. "I would like to stress (the acquaintance was) of Armenian descent.''
"It has nothing to do with Russia, (or) with Chechnya, which he had nothing to do with,'' Tsarni said. "It started here."
"I was relieved that he is alive,'' Tsarni said. "At least he has a chance to ask for forgiveness for those that he victimized, as well as there is a chance now for enforcement agencies to get to the bottom of it. "For a 19-year-old kid, I do not even believe (that) he would (have) been in full comprehension of what he's been doing. For the sake of seeking forgiveness for himself, I don't know how long his life is going to be, but I know it will be way easier for him if he receives that forgiveness for those he made to suffer.''
