Well, you can’t COMPLETELY rule it out, I suppose. But it strikes me as highly unlikely that the Obama administration has secretly been plotting – for years – to kill blue state civilians to drum up hatred for Islam. I suppose someone could make the case that this so-called plot would have been masterminded by “rogue elements” of the US government – perhaps the FBI. But what does the FBI have to gain by making itself look inept?
Behold the power of conspiracy theories. 50 years after the assassination of JFK, Oliver Stone’s amazingly demented movie based on an even more ludicrous book, still holds sway. Oswald was a Soviet (or Cuban) agent. No, wait - he was acting on orders of the FBI. Or the Mafia. Or LBJ, whose friends in the military wanted JFK out of the way because the prez wasn’t ramping up the war in Vietnam fast enough to boost the corporate bottom line. Personally, I don’t know how the US government can get away with “sequestering” the confidential reports on JFKs assassination for 50 years, but that’s a topic for another rant.
The fact that the FBI has previously infiltrated so called terrorist “sleeper cells”, and provided FAKE munitions prior to arresting the bumbling jihadists, certainly doesn’t help refute the case Tsarnarev’s daddy is making. Dad wants to come to American and “interrogate” our government, because he used to be an aspiring law student in Russia. Here’s a tip, dad: if you think your kids are innocent, you can start your interrogations right there in mother Russia. They evidently provided AT LEAST two tips to the FBI that your sons were up to no good. The fact that the FBI concluded otherwise is much more likely to be incompetence, rather than proof of a masterful plot on our governments part.
Speaking of government plots, the older (dead) brother, “Tamerlane”, was ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED that 9/11 was a US government operation, intended to drum up public hatred of Islam, steal the Middle East’s oil, and spread Christianity to the 4 corners of the globe. (Why else were no Jews killed at ground zero?) For real. This crops up over and over in reminiscences Tamerlane’s fellow students had of casual conversations they had with him that “went off the rails”.
Hmmm . . . wonder where an impressionable kid gets a crazy notion like THAT, eh? Disregard the fact that half of Europe at one point was fingering Bush for 9/11 – nearly ¼ of America was too – about half of those on the left half of the political dial. Wonder how these conspiroristas now explain the Obama troop surge in Afghanistan? Guess we’re at the point where its no longer enough to tsk-tsk at these sort of crazy conspiracy theories. Or relegate those bewitched by fantastic government rumors to the same loonie bin as people obsessed by Roswell/bigfoot/Nessie, and the secret pill that turns water into gasoline - which big oil won’t let us have.
I’m sure more fantastical revelations will come to light over the next several weeks. Tamerlane was evidently “a heavy drug user” before his momma advised him to stop all that nonsense and get in touch with Allah. There are reports that some Kazakh guys – associates of Tamerlane - residing in tcome back to Allah. And we have yet to see the upcoming CBS 60 Minutes exclusive interview with Mrs. Katie Russell-Tsarnarev, Tamerlane’s just discovered/estranged wife, and mother of his 3 year old daughter, who gave up college to convert to Islam and bear his child. She still wears a hajib, although she’s evidently been living back home with mom and dad (he's a doctor) since Tamerlane went back to Russia/Chechnya for 6 months, for reasons unknown.
And my personal favorite, among upcoming questions yet to be answered: how could Tsarnarev’s best friend “Azmat” (sounds like “haz-mat”, eh?) drive around Massachusetts with a vanity tag which reads “Terrorista #1”, and have bumper stickers proclaiming “[Unwelcome language removed] you” on the back, without getting arrested?
