Boston bomber's mother urged him to join Palestinians

Russian authorities secretly recorded a telephone conversation in 2011 in which one of the Boston bombing suspects vaguely discussed jihad with his mother, officials said Saturday, days after the US government finally received details about the call...

In early 2011, the Russian FSB internal security service intercepted a conversation between Tsarnaev and his mother vaguely discussing jihad, according to US officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation with reporters.

The two discussed the possibility of Tsarnaev going to 'Palestine,' but he told his mother he didn't speak the language there, according to the officials, who reviewed the information Russia shared with the US.

Now that some time has passed and we've learned a little more about the Tsarnaev brothers would it be wrong and racist of me to suggest that these two gentlemen were Jihadis?

Is that out of line?, because I do not want to be racist.  Look, just because these two guys were initiated into an ideology that seeks the murder of westerners and Jews doesn't mean that we should be harsh about the matter.  There is no doubt in my mind that these two young Jihadis were perfectly fine and good people.  They obviously meant well.  They cared about their families and wanted what was best for everyone - accept for me, you, and our family and friends, who they wanted to kill for theological-political reasons.

But that's not their fault, really.  The only way to be fair to the innocent Tsarnaev brothers is for us to accept our guilt.  Their behavior is not their fault.  On the contrary, their behavior is our fault.  In fact, as I learn this morning, their behavior is even in some measure the fault of the Jewish people of the State of Israel.

For thirteen of the last fourteen centuries the Jews of the Middle East have been dhimmis under the boot of Arab-Muslim imperialism and if they had not freed themselves in the early-middle of the twentieth century there would be less reason for Jihadis like the Tsarnaev brothers to be angry.  As Jewish people who care about what is best for all of humanity - even if we do not give a shit about ourselves - the only conclusion that we can come to is that we were mistaken to free ourselves from slavery under Islam.

As most progressives would tell you, the real problem is that Jews are mean.  They wouldn't put it in quite those terms, but that is what they are saying.  In 1948, for no reason whatsoever, these militaristic and racist and imperialist and apartheid-like Holocaust survivors and their wives attacked a whole bunch of entirely innocent Arabs who wanted nothing more than to raise their Sacred Olive Groves in peace.  The Jews, or so we are told, ethnically cleansed the indigenous population from Jewish land.

The problem is/was that those pernicious Jews wanted to steal "all the land."  All of it!  Sure that land only represents a fragment of one percent of the land of the Middle East and it has been Jewish land for almost four thousand years and the Jews were willing to divide it and divide it again, but that doesn't change the fact that they insisted upon stealing all of it.  All of it, I say!

And look at what is going on now.  We have all these Jews with their backs to the Mediterranean, surrounded by a whole bunch of pissed off Arabs, and those Jews (wrongly) insist upon defending themselves.  This is unheard of in human history and it is simply unacceptable.  Within long-standing Muslim and European traditions Jews are not allowed to defend themselves and must be righteously condemned as aggressors, if not killed, whenever they do so.  It has always been like this and it must always stay like this.  I am not exactly sure why, but what I do know is that when the tiny Jewish minority in the Middle East does defend itself from the much larger Arab majority, it pisses off well-meaning white people in Europe and the United States.

So if it pisses off well-meaning white non-Muslim people, one can only imagine how the poor Tsarnaev brothers felt.

It's only been a few weeks since Barack Obama put his foot on Netanyahu's head in order to make him apologize for allowing the IDF to defend the country against
Jihadis "peace activists" in the Mavi Marmara affair and now look what happens!  Two perfectly fine young fellows in the United States kill people and maim a bunch of others because they are dissatisfied with the international order.

And who could blame them, really?
