Boston Bombing Ping!!
Lets just copy his contacts to here as is written in the article......
Two Russian government officials said Tamerlan Tsarnaev exchanged notes over the Internet with William Plotnikov, a boxer who moved with his parents from Russia to Canada before joining militants in the North Caucasus.
...... And they said Mr. Tsarnaev met several times in early 2012 with Mansur Makhmud ‘Nidal’, an alleged militant from the Russian province of Dagestan and suspected jihadist recruiter.
The meetings happened ‘in a mosque in Dagestan’s’ capital of Makhachkala ...’known for its adherence to a puritanical strain of Islam’, they said.
Mr. Nidal died in a firefight in Makhachkala last May after a five-hour standoff that ended with him throwing a grenade at police officials, according to Russian authorities.
Mr. Plotnikov died two months later, in mid-July, during a raid in the hinterland of Utamysh, a village southwest of Makhachkala.
Mr. Tsarnaev was in the region at the time of both raids but ....”left Russia for the U.S. three days after the second one”........ He left before picking up a Russian passport that had been prepared for him at the local migration office in Dagestan’s capital.
“He intended to join the fighters,...... but he lost his contacts,”...... one of the Russian officials said. “In the end he picked an easier enemy in Boston.”
