Islam was prob. important, that is not the point. This seems like 2 lone wolfs.
eta:
The older brother who was killed and suspected in the Boston bombings was deep into hip hop, and it appears he belonged to a fan website that touted that genre of music.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev has an email associated with the website, "Real-hiphop.com."
The site provides information about hip hop artists and upcoming DVD releases.
What's interesting ... hip hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women. Tamerlan Tsarnaev has a boxing profile in which he says he doesn't take his shirt off much because he doesn't want women to get bad ideas, adding, "I'm very religious." This statement is significantly more conservative than the hip hop genre.
wtf
u gon try to make gangsta rap connection to this and blame hip hop now? like foreal? they are chechen muslim terrorists, step off
shuda listened to the russians...
Yes, too many people (esp Americans and Indians - dotties) try to malign Islam. All those named areas are non Muslim areas, no attacks against them. So it must be something else - maybe global belligerents caused people to get mad.
And clearly dudes are white.
All of those areas have zero geopolitical or symbolic importance as well.
Extremist sentiment in the middle east is a lot more complex than you make it out to be.
I wonder if the "Black Africans" in South Sudan are considered belligerents?
Nice way to try to scapegoat it. No one said America deserves anything but when it's all said and done and the dust has settled, you reap what you sow. America puts its monetary interest before people, even its own and the love of money is the root of all evil. Instead of trying to play victim with that statement, really stop and think about it.
I've not only stopped and thought about it, I've studied it.
Now, the question for you: The Chechen brothers attack a marathon for what purpose?
What has America sown in Chechnya?
Or are disaffected boy-men allowed to speak for all of the Islamic world?
"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.
A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it.
No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome."
Sir Winston Churchill; (Source: The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 London)
Why is a single Muslim allowed to enter the United States for whatever reason? What does any Saudi or Chechen have to offer western society?

Reason: flaming
These guys are from a very tough part of Russia. It is a combination of Islam- old Christianity with a touch of ancient shamanism. They were battle hardened by the time they were 10. Their conflict has always been with Russian authority - The two cultures have been at each others throat for a couple of hundred years. I am surprised that they would center their ill intentions or Americans...They should have kept it on home turf and maybe given Moscow some grief- but America is an easy target.
Sadly there is insult to injury here. The host nation of America was offering these two a good and secure peaceful future - but no- fanatic thought proved to be stronger than common sense.

I am just posting what is on the news. very rare for an observing muslim to be so much into hip-hop
That said, hiphop is not to blame. The perpetrators are to blame.
No, they are African...period. When you start using color labels for every other region in the world then come tell me something. Other than that you are being a willfully ignorant fool. Especially ignoring the same problems in Northern Africa...smh.
