EXCLUSIVE - How doctor's daughter became the Muslim convert widow of Boston bomber
The Daily Mail ^

Posted on 04/21/2013 7:09:16 PM PDT by MarkBsnr

Schoolfriend tells MailOnline how Katherine Russell had dreams of joining the Peace Corps - but was 'totally transformed' by Tamerlan Tsarnaev Katherine Russell, the widow of Boston bomb suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was 'an all-American girl who was brainwashed' by her extremist husband according to one schoolfriend. Today MailOnline has gained the first glimpse and pictures of the early life of the woman who, according to those who knew her best, was 'totally transformed' by Tsarnaev. At high school her personal motto was 'Do something about it or stop complaining'. She dreamed of going to college and joining the Peace Corps. She urged her friends to 'lighten up and enjoy the small things,' in life. Instead she met Tsarneav, 26, a disenfranchised man who came to America from his troubled homeland of Chechnya who rapidly had her in his thrall. By the time she was 21 she had married him and borne his child, Zahara, now three. She had converted to Islam, hidden her tumble of chestnut hair beneath the hijab and undergone a change so profound that today few friends profess to truly understand it.

One more reason to stop the folly of calling Mohammedism a religion. No religion on Earth preaches hatred, lying, killing and brutality like Mohammedism.

It is a cult of hate, following the rantings of a camel-humping pedophile.

It wouldn't shock me if Muslims have a master plan to convert U.S. women through marriage.

For the press, over there in Londonistan to be so forthright, and non PC in this story gives me hope. They now “get it.” They (the Brits) have been OVER RUN by “diversity.” We will be soon if the majority does NOT wise up.

I fear this you g woman married “Black Cap” (I refuse to honor the s#its name by learning how to spell it ) because he was so “different” and the lovely black scarf just made her “stand out” for the first time; and she will keep wearing it and “raise her daughter in the “religion of peices” to show solidarity” (or some such nonsense) blah, blah, blah.

Girlfriend needs an intervention AND deprograming sooner rather than later. That’s her only hope.

My granddaughter started college this year and the arab types are attracted to her. She thinks they are satan personified. She is polite because she doesn’t want to make them mad.

I will admit that the daughter is the one person involved for whom I feel sorry.

I don’t feel sorry for her at all. There’s no way she doesn’t know something. It’s the little three year old I have sympathy for. Poor little thing doesn’t stand a chance.

This is the first report that says she was still living with him. Other neighbors have said he hadn’t been seen in RI for a year.

I don't know about some girls....some of them seem to go for the X factor in relationships....the strange...the different...the outsider....the misunderstood....

I can think of no other reason why some girls cross huge cultural/racial/ethnic/religous barriers to "be" with a man....

my son married a girl of another race, but its not like he HAD to marry someone different or that she HAD to marry someone different....they dated their own race before hand..

The eldest of three daughters, to emergency physician Dr Warren Russell and nurse Judith, hers is a background steeped in the values of family and education.

She attended Daisyville Middle School, North Kingstown. As a sixth grader she is pictured smiling from the pages of the 2001-2002 yearbook dedicated to The North Kingstown Police and Fire Departments in the wake of 9/11. – a date, the opening dedication reads, ‘forever in our minds.’

So her parents are both occupied with demanding careers and don't give enough attention and guidance to their daughter. Furthermore she lives in Boston where moral relativism reigns, so every culture or value system is just as good as any other value system except for traditionalism and conservatism. Why not get involved with a Muslim man? At least he isn't some uncouth gun toting southerner.

I was involved with a Saudi for a number of years in the early 70s. I NEVER EVER considered converting to Islam. It was NEVER an option. Not all women who have dated Middle Eastern men are completely stupid. Not all Middle Eastern men are Islamists dedicated to the destruction of Western civilization. Unfortunately, we generally can’t differentiate between the good guys and the bad guys until it is too late.

Once again the Brits reporting the facts that the MSM works to shield Americans from.

Exactly... what the heck is up with our MSM?

Despite the celebrity gossip crap that always appears in the right-hand column of this site, The Daily Mail UK has been doing an excellent job covering the Boston Marathon terrorist bombing saga. This article is another example.

How doctor's daughter became the Muslim convert widow of Boston bomber: Terrorist husband 'brainwashed' her...

Pinging some FRiends here...

She must have started off as a liberal. Bending over backwards to prove to herself how open-minded she is, she embraces the world’s worst religion.
