1. Either that or the hate he nurtured changed his brain
Avi   (04.27.13)
Hate tends to do that to a person.
2. Here comes the 'spinning
tiki ,   belgium   (04.27.13)
Brain damage + Islamic brainwash = damaged goods. Has to be exterminated.
3. Dead right
Sagi   (04.27.13)
Of course it's brain damage. Religion causes brain damage. The deeper the faith, the deeper the damage.
4. What total nonsense!
Michael Redbourn ,   Arad - Israel   (04.27.13)
Tamerlan Tsarnaev made it quite clear that he was ready to be a martyr for the Islamic cause. It had nothing to do with blows to the head when he was a boxer. There are tens of thousands of boxers in the world and they don't go around bombing people. He carried out the bombings because he believed that infidels should be killed. Let's not look for other reasons!
5. More like "slam was the cause of his brain damage...duhhh!
Jonathan ,   USA   (04.27.13)
6. Even in Stalinist Russia they wouldn't dare to print that!
tom ,   tel aviv   (04.27.13)
7. Oh, stop!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.27.13)
I am the first to admit that I do not consider boxing to be a sport. But amateur boxers always wear heavy, padded helmets. Boxing is not the reason for Tsarnaev's hatred. If you want to pin his hatred on something, try Islam. Far better candidate. Besides which, the younger brother was not a boxer. He was a wrestler. Did wrestling cause his Jew-hating brain damage, too? Get real. Stop making excuses for terrorists. Pin the blame where it REALLY belongs -- that violent, twisted cult known as "Islam."
8. Praying and wiggling causes similar brain damage says doctor
Michael ,   California, USA   (04.27.13)
9. Then why bother wearing head protectors
ky   (04.27.13)
10. The Devil made him do it.
By Melissa ,   United States   (04.27.13)
11. Ivan the terrible.
Botox ,   Anywhere   (04.27.13)
So now, as welearned that Cosaks were sending big stones towards Ivan, and received many of them to his heads, should explain his 'sudden needs' to build palaces with the cliving bodies of his own family, and of course the rest of the New Russ. Well, it looks like of of the Russian ethnicity has that problem: no matter their faith or their sexual orientation (Catherine the Great and Tsar Nicola). Even today you, we see each Russian speaking normal person with signs of stones in their heads. Well, how would you explain the fact that the younger brother Dzihad Tsarnaev was a pre-med student and had many, many American friends. Apparenty Tamerlan had three Jewish friend he killed....(now its been investigated)Go figure.
12. bollox
matityahu ,   slovenia   (04.27.13)
Blame it on everything else but the cause. PC at its finest.
13. Nonsense
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (04.27.13)
14. #11-Botox
Anna ,   Montreal, Canada   (04.27.13)
Where did you find connection between Russian ethnicity and knowledge of Russian language in case of this family? Please , check at least Wikipedia about Chechnya, Dagestan, Ingushetia, Russia before posting your ignorant talkback.
15. It is definitely brain damage.
Anna ,   Montreal, Canada   (04.27.13)
I am not sure of its cause. But in case of Tzarnaev family damage shows genetic routs aggravated by religious fanaticism. Mother run out of USA because she was charged with shoplifting. She is afraid to go to USA to visit her surviving son fearing her arrest. If she would be caught committing this crime in Sharia ruled state, she would loose at least her arm. But her Allah chose different punishment. Unfortunately lives of so many innocent people where prematurely destroyed or mutilated in this terrifying act. And after all she is convinced that her sons are the real victims. It's brain damage without any doubt.
16. To: No. 8
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.27.13)
Would you mind terribly explaining to me exactly what you mean by "wiggling?" Is it something akin to what the Moslem-in-Chief in the White House does every day? Personally, I call that "wriggling," but I do recognze that you are significantly intellectually challenged. Please do enlighten me. To the extent your damaged brain can, of course. I'll understand. I recognize that you are brain-damaged. Hope you don't drool too much. That would be rather disgusting. Ooooh. You ARE disgusting. OOPS!
17. Wow!
Noah ,   Hawaii/israel   (04.27.13)
That they even try to say it was brain damage! Is a joke whats the other chumps excuse. To the gallows!
18. What unadulterated BS!
M. Davison ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (04.27.13)
All the evidence indicates that Tamerlan Tsarnaev knew exactly what he was doing. It's time to stop the idiocy called "Political Correctness" and call a spade a bloody shovel!
19. With this convoluted "logic"...
Gideon Reader   (04.27.13)
..we then are expected to believe that those animals (apologies to our furry friends for the comparison) that committed the atrocity-orgy of death and sexual assausts at Beslan school are members of the Chechan Boxing Team, who fail to lead with their left, and catch every punch with their heads. And the hostage takers at the theater in Moscow, are the Chechan Golden Gloves wannabees. Horse poop compadre! They are Islamic Jihadi Terrorists and Muslim Jahadi Terrorists commit acts of terror, called for and on behalf of their leadership in their Mosques and "holy" books and surra. If you keep up the twisting and turning, you will ultimately hurt yourself.
20. Prove the Jews were responsible in
Anna ,   Montreal, Canada   (04.27.13)
Tamerlan Tzarnaev's brain damage. On the Debkafile site you can find the article about an unsolved two-year old triple murder of young Jews which happened on September 11, 10th anniversary of 9/11: 'Boston Bombers Had Links to al Qaeda Terrorist Cells"
21. IS THIS A JOKE???
Jimbo ,   Neversink, NY   (04.27.13)
What kinda crap is this???? Another attempt by Obama and his gang to downplay Islam's violent nature! How stupid can people be???
22. the entire generation of people are brain dead
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (04.28.13)
they are weak, ignorant, and narcissistic.
23. Boxing's not that big in Israel....
Robert ,   Australia   (04.28.13)
....so what's their excuse?
24. Spontaneous shoot out
Sherlock Holmes ,   London England   (04.28.13)
You don't plan a shoot out, so saying it was spontaneous is irrelevant. There are lots of boxers, but that doesn't allow them to commit mass murder. If he was discussing his views with his mother years back, he clearly had time to think about what he was doing. What I don't understand is why the ;parents went home to Russia and left their boys in Boston.
25. Zionist plot?
Danny ,   London England   (04.28.13)
Let's get to the point. Boxing was invented by the Zionists as a plot to cause brain damage to Muslims like these two Chechans. His 'mother' was really a Mossad agent setting him up for the bomb attack. This is how the Arab press will cover the story, so why wait? Let's get it over with!
