Perhaps my understanding of the English language is not what it used to be, but I read the entire article and saw absolutely no sympathy for the bombers. It does however express some sympathy for their parents, recognizing that the parents appear to be as incredulous as everyone else who knew these guys.
In no way does the article attempt to paint the bombers as victims. But then perhaps the article you linked to is not the one you intended to reference.
Oh crud. You mean we have to actually READ the article to see what’s in it ?
I agree. I actually thought the article provided nice background.
The article paints the Chechen people and specifically this one family as victims. Hell the father himself has already threatened there’d be hell to pay if his “angelic” terrorist, er, kid was killed. No, they are NOT victims!!
I agree with your sentiment.
