I would imagine that any follow-up will fully explore potential collaborators with these two. If the uncle is involved, I doubt he will be able to hide it. Until there is some evidence of that, however, I will take his statement at face value and assume he is both angered by and ashamed of the actions taken by his nephews.

I'm with JR on this. I think people are grasping at straws on this one.



This is the reporter that spoke with the dad of the 2 suspects.

The scene will take a while to clear, there's probably a body with a bomb strapped to it. Poor Bomb Squad dudes.

No need, he'll kill himself.

How many people would be ready for a summer of carnage, I wonder?. If this came to your town how would you cope?

It's like a bad episode of 24.

The uncle just gave a live press conference, and called on the suspect to turn himself in and ask forgiveness from the bombing victims and the families of the same. He also said they brought shame to the name of all Chechens. He didn't sound insincere, he sounded indignant and angry.

I get the argument about taqiyya in the comments, thought it was interesting, but listening to him live, I don't think that's what he was doing

I agree, plus he's probably a Redskins fan.

They are currently showing the interview with the uncle.

OMG! He (uncle) is clearly working with the bothers. Geez. Come on people.

[CRedskinsRule]

Here's a live stream (NECN - Breaking News, Boston Weather, politics and the Latest Business, Health, Arts and Sports) if you haven't seen it. Just talking media, but they just did an interview with a girl who went to middle school and high school with the suspect who is still at large.

Ruslan is borderline delusional. "Chechens are peaceful".

Not all of them, not recently.

EDIT: I take it back, he's obviously very upset, as anyone would be.

[JoeRedskin]

I don't disagree with anything you've said. There are always subtleties when discussing such philosophical principals. At the same time, we westerners have that silly principle of innocent until proven guilty. If the uncle is complicit, it will come out. To parse his words looking for a way to impugn him, however, is not proof of anything.
