Full title...'My brother made me do it': Boston 'bomber' reveals in scrawled note that older sibling 'wanted to defend Islam from attack' - but that they acted ALONE Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, has claimed he and his brother were not linked to any Islamic terrorist groups He has also told interrogators that his older brother, Tamerlan, 26, was the ring leader in last Monday's attacks Suspect is scrawling handwritten responses to questions in his hospital bed Was formally charged Monday with conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction Judge described Dzhokhar as 'alert, mentally competent and lucid' at hospital court hearing In preliminary interviews with Dzhokhar, the terror suspect said his brother 'wanted to defend Islam from attack', a source told CNN.

Two U.S. officials said last night the evidence from the bedside interrogation suggests the terror suspects did not have any accomplices, despite previous fears they were part of a 12-man terror 'sleeper cell.'

And it was from READING a magazine that drove them to murder. Just like Benghazi.

Play the victim card. His brother made him specifically target an 8-year old boy? He made him drive over his brother to flee the cops? Made him shoot himself in the throat?

And how did this “defend Islam”? Where was the message to the media bragging of the accomplishment? Where was the list of grievances? Where was the selection of “target”?

All it did was paint a horrible picture of the “moderate” muslims in his family and friends who recognized them but did not turn this information over to the authorities. Harboring a fugitive can be criminal too.

If there is reality of the concept of need to know, then One can reasonably believe Zokar did not know the hierarchy beyond the isolated two man cell.

The older brother is a different story. The piece called him the ring leader but there was apparently no ring. There were just the two of them.

It is likely that somewhere there lurks one man that runs perhaps three or four other such very small isolated hit teams. He provides resources to implement the training.

The running involves the dispatching the team leader to training somewhere in jihad land. There are no lose ends, no unraveling once that person is dead.

Having said all that, Zokar is still guilty as hell. He has faith but limited knowledge. He is supposed to be dead.

when the determination is made he has told all there is to tell, he can be dead

This guy has a good lawyer to advise him how to try to beat this charge of murder. I don’t think it is going to work. I believe the brother was the heavy but the younger one is not stupid and was not forced to help his brother. He did it because he wanted to kill people and then “party”. It is sick but not excusable.

Blame older brother! He figured out these lies all by himself! Without the help of a lawyer even!

This will be a kitchen/cooking related injury due to the pressure cooker exploding. Look for a class action suit against all cooking equipment companies.

We live in an Idiocracy. This is probably going to happen.

Yes, and if you are in possession of explosive it is recommended you refrain from smoking.

Smoking, firearms, matches, open flame lamps, and other fires, flame or heat producing devices and sparks shall be prohibited in or near explosive magazines

The perp’s twitter buddies and others are saying he was framed. How will they reconcile their claims with this apparent confession?

He’ll be asking the court for mercy clemency because his only brother is deceased...a variation on the “Take pity on me, I’m an orphan” defense.

CNN is reporting grief counselors have been called to the hospital room.

The White House spokesperson said this was not out of the ordinary for prisoners who’ve lost loved ones.
