Kennedy 0 #2 April 19, 2013 If Chechnya was their motivation (a big if), I doubt "talking about it" was their goal.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lefty 0 #3 April 19, 2013 If their goal was to get people to speculate how Chechens could be so stupid as to miss Russia by a few thousand miles then yeah, mission accomplished and way to dream big.Provoking a reaction isn't the same thing as saying something meaningful. -Calvin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rehmwa 2 #6 April 19, 2013 QuoteHate to say it but its true, if these murderers wanted to get everyone talking about Chechnya then it worked. I'd assume their motivation was due to a misapplication or fanatical view of their faith. Based on newscasts I've seen. Faith doesn't have a nationality, so I'm assuming that isn't a substantial tie-in other than how it affected them in their formative years to gravitate to extremism later in life. ...

OHCHUTE 0 #11 April 20, 2013 Have you ever been to Cambridge? It's high brow. The older bro wasn't making it here, couldn't get laid, and talked to his younger bro into violence due to being a looser. Just like what uncle said. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
