And I must admit I missed this.  The New York Times has a line about Tamerlan Tsarnaev.  Quote, &#8220;He was angry that the world pictures Islam as a violent religion.&#8221;  So obviously Tamerlan set out to change that perception.  Tamerlan Tsarnaev sitting there ticked off that people picture Islam as a violent religion, so he says, &#8220;I\u2019ll show them,&#8221; and blows up the Boston Marathon.  Honestly, folks, I am not making this up. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_75540\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/WolfBostonBomberBroInLaw.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>And from the Boston Globe: &#8220;Russia Contacted US Government &#8216;Multiple\u2019 Times on Concerns&#8221; about Tamerlan Tsarnaev.  But the FBI, &#8220;Well, okay,&#8221; but were unable to track him for some reason.  The suspect\u2019s former brother-in-law says there were other people involved now.  Let\u2019s go to audio sound bite 27.  This on CNN this morning.  Wolf Blitzer is interviewing Elmirza Khozhgov, ex-brother-in-law of Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.  And Wolf said, &#8220;Do you believe these two brothers acted alone, or were they involved in any other terror groups?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>KHOZHGOV:  I believe that there are other people involved.<\/p>\n<p>BLITZER:  When you say other people involved, what does that mean?  (crosstalk)<\/p>\n<p>KHOZHGOV:  &#8212; some movement.  I mean some extremist terrorists &#8212; not terrorists, but like extreme &#8212; extremely radical people, not &#8212; don\u2019t want to point out the religion itself because it\u2019s a peaceful religion, but there are people who are preaching it the wrong way, probably, so I believe yes, there are some people involved.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah, that\u2019s the ex-brother-in-law of Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, Elmirza Khozhgov.  What is it with American media people?  This guy says, &#8220;I believe there were other people involved.&#8221;  Blitzer says, &#8220;When you say other people involved, what does that mean?&#8221;  It\u2019s like Diane Sawyer yesterday said, &#8220;Pierre, what does it mean he\u2019s in custody?&#8221;  &#8220;Well, Diane, it means the police have him, he\u2019s in police custody.&#8221;  Oh.  Like recycling.  So yesterday Diane Sawyer, &#8220;What\u2019s custody mean.&#8221;  Wolf today, &#8220;What do you mean, other people involved?  What does that mean?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Laurie in Pittsburgh, we go back to Pittsburgh, great to have you on the EIB Network.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  I wanted to bring up something I\u2019ve been thinking about.  Is there a possibility that what\u2019s happening with the bombers &#8212; I can\u2019t say their name \u2019cause I\u2019m brutalize them &#8212; there could be like generational envy or generational guilt?  And let me explain that, as a theory I have.  Like I can use Barack Obama as an example.  Up until he was an 18-year-old in high school going to that private school, he was Barry Soetoro.  Then he became aware.  He wanted to get down with the struggle.  He started, you know, there\u2019s multiple things where he then, because the generational envy he felt of not being part of the sixties and radical and protesting and all the things that went on there, he, in his own way, took the path of socialism and became a radical in his own way.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, folks, before you have a conniption here, there is something to this.  Obama himself has spoken of regretting missing living in the sixties &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Exactly, generational envy.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  The tumult, he wished he would have been around when that was happening.  He has spoken of that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  And you can apply that to these two brothers.  Their parents went through a struggle, and the struggle they went through in Russia, I mean, and the things that happened over in Russia, they come in here to America &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So wait.  Are you asking if these two guys did it because they wanted to get involved in what they thought were good times that they missed?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I think it could be a guilt of them not having participated in that.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_75567\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" alt=\"original\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushFlag2.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You mean, the jihad happened and all they\u2019ve got is the T-shirt?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Exactly, or here they are living the Shahs of Sunset lifestyle, which is a television show on Bravo, and their parents talk about how bad they had it.  So, in essence, they have a guilt complex now that they didn\u2019t live through that, therefore they embrace it, they radicalize it and this is the radical course they take.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, I had not considered this.  Why are you?  What steered you to this?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Because you see it so often.  It exists so much, just like Barack Obama, it exists. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I know, but let\u2019s leave Obama out of it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  &#8212; were you not satisfied &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  &#8212; take it from the concept of people can go multiple ways with this sort of guilt or envy.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Are you not satisfied with the explanations we\u2019ve been given so far?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I agree that\u2019s part of it, but I think this is not being looked at, you know, here they are living a completely different life than what their parents lived, and maybe being told this all the time and then looking at the conditions back in their own country and that this concept of what their generation, their generation, what they had, there was a guilt or an envy there.  And I think that could be a part of it. <\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, maybe.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I don\u2019t know that anybody\u2019s looking at that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I don\u2019t know how much guilt or envy there was.  You gotta have some hate here.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I agree.  I agree.  It\u2019s how you take what people are saying.  Like, if you take it and you make it this wonderful thing and it\u2019s the level to which you take what your guilt of that generational, you know, the whole being separated by that generation.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Do you take it to a case of hate, in their case.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Like, for example, you can take it to extreme for them, which is hate, the bombing, or the small extreme of the Mercedes that got hijacked that had a &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Look, all this is well and good, but it\u2019s a fun exercise to get into why they did it or what radicalized them, but I\u2019m not interested in it from a standpoint that, &#8220;Well, this will help us prevent the next one.&#8221; I don\u2019t want excuses to eventually be made for these guys, and that\u2019s what\u2019s starting. I\u2019m not saying you are, but people are making excuses for these guys, &#8220;Well, radicalized by an imam. Well, Afghanistan and Iraq. Well, the American foreign policy\u2019s to blame for it.&#8221;  These guys knowing built the bombs, learned how to do it and set \u2019em off, and there are 260 people injured, lost limbs, people have died, and that\u2019s, to me, the fundamental point of this. <\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re bad guys.  How they got that way, we can surmise.  Anyway, look, Laurie, I appreciate the call.  I\u2019m not trying to diminish what you\u2019re saying \u2019cause I don\u2019t know.  That theory could be right on the money. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Mark Steyn has just pointed out in a little blog post, an ironic line about Tamerlan Tsarnaev that is in the New York Times.
