| Zubeidat Tsarnaeva added to terrorism watch list in 2011 |
| 2013-04-26 |
| The U.S. government added the Boston Marathon bombing suspects' mother, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, to a terrorism watch list in 2011, a source confirmed Friday. This occurred after Russian intelligence asked the Americans to investigate Tsarnaeva's son Tamerlan out of fears he may travel to Russia to join a militant group. They also had concerns about the mom, the source said. The database in question is called TIDE -- Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment -- and both the mother and dead son are on it, the source said. |

| #4 A couple of years ago, a guy at NCTC explained to me that inconsistent transliteration of Cyrillic and Arabic names commonly led to misspellings. Hence, lots of bad guys never made it into TIDE, and lots of harmless ones did, rendering it a large and fairly useless pile of data. |

| #2 Ohh, see I was looking at the MMDIDE - Man Made Disaster Identity Datamart Environment - where all the women are bombs, all the men are jihadis, and the children are not above murder. A thief eh? If she really respected islam like I'm being told to she would have taken her haj and had her hands chopped off like a good lady in a bag. She must be an apostate then, right screamin' imans? |
