Taking this ‘misha’ out of the equation, are you of the belief that these 2 did all of this on their own? No outside influence, aid, funding etc. Just curious.

I think we cannot forget that the older brother had determined to go deeper into Islamic teachings......we cannot forget how dangerous these teachings are ...no one becomes a bo*ber unless he's, with certainty, determined and “believes” the way he is going is the truth...and in his case he acted on that.

I hesitate to use the word “influence” because it's appearing too often it's being presented that all the “other” variables, from other people, to if or not they were mentally unstable, etc.etc. is painting a picture that these two were victims rather than the “terrorist murders” they are...and the family's background etc. is feeding this.

Yes, those who were “involved” in any way need to be looked at and investigated, but with the goal to prosecute not give more ‘reasons why’ these two did what they did...and the media is leaning toward just the opposite.
