[A Conservative Teacher] Tamerlan Tsarnaev- 9/11 Denier, Against War on Terror, Ignorant- Product of the Intellectual Left?

[A Conservative Teacher]

From the Detroit News article For Boston bombing suspects, question may be who led whom:

...(Alyssa Kilzer) said the mother (of the terrorists) also expressed some rather strident views about the U.S. government. "(When my mother went to their house to get a facial treatment) (the mother of the terrorists) started quoting a conspiracy theory, telling me that she thought 9-11 was purposefully created by the American government to make America hate Muslims. 'It's real,' (the mother of the terrorists) said, 'My son knows all about it. You can read on the internet.'"...

...Tsarni (who is the uncle) told The Associated Press from his home in Maryland that a deep rift opened between him and his sister-in-law, but that he tried to maintain a relationship with the boys. However, that effort began to fall apart several years ago, he said, when Tamerlan "started carrying all this nonsense associated with religion, with Islamic religion."

Tamerlan would throw out foreign words like "jihad" and "Inshallah" — Arabic for "God willing" — without really understanding their meaning, he said...

...One of the brothers' neighbors, Albrecht Ammon, said he had a bizarre encounter with Tamerlan in a pizza shop about three months ago. The older brother argued with him about U.S. foreign policy, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and religion. He said Tamerlan referred to the Bible as a "cheap copy" of the Quran, and that many of this country's wars "are based upon the Bible — how it's an excuse to invade other countries."

"He had nothing against the American people," Ammon said. "He had something against the American government."...

There are those who are going to try to spin some sort of alternative narrative about these terrorists- that they were just an innocent family that didn't integrate to American culture because American culture is wrong or something, that these people were poor and desperate and so we need to increase welfare programs, that this event has nothing at all to do with Muslim or the Muslim religion, that this is a conspiracy theory involving the FBI, that somehow these terrorists were lone-wolves whose actions say nothing further about society or the environment that they've lived in, or that somehow it was Bush's fault.

But the above quotes paint a different picture. We can see here two young individuals who accepted left-wing indoctrination regarding two major events that took place over the last several years- 9/11 and the War on Terror. The left- liberals, communists, progressives, socialists, fascists- have been for years attempting to spin conspiracy theories about 9/11 that put the blame for these events on America. And these groups have also for years been agitating against the War on Terror- in fact these groups united behind the Democrats and Barack Obama and helped to elect them on the argument that the War on Terror was wrong and just an excuse to invade other countries. And the older brother was ignorant- using language and words for which he didn't really understand and which really didn't even apply- the sort of misuse and abuse of language that is more characteristic of the left than it is with the right.

Barack Obama and the Democrats are not to blame for these events- the actions of evil people are- but the political environment, rhetoric, intellectual thought, and systems of support that the left has been at work building contributed to and aided these evil people in their efforts.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his brother were not students of the Constitution and our Founding Fathers, they did not quote John Locke and talk about a new American Revolution, they were not supportive of our efforts overseas to degrade terror networks and remove regimes from power who supported and cheered on the 9/11 attacks, they did not curse the terrorists who committed 9/11, they were not supportive of the free market, they were not raised believing in human freedom and personal liberty and the responsibilities and consequences of their actions for the larger society, they were not interested in business and producing goods and services, they didn't discuss any Ron Paul conspiracy theories about the gold standard or the government taken over by communists, they did not love human life, they did not believe in the protection of private property, and they did not believe that wordsmithing and image and fancy rhetoric are just crap. They are not associated in their actions, thoughts, beliefs, or values with the 'right'- conservatives, tea partiers, libertarians, constitutionalists, republicans, Republicans, independents, etc.

It is to the left of the political spectrum that we must look to see who intellectually gave these terrorists purpose and direction to commit their evil acts. This might not be the politically correct thing to say- but let it be said here regardless.
