While it is mere speculation at this point, it can be hypothesized that this tragic history of victimhood at the hands of Christian/Soviet Russia and the terrorist response may have inspired Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and his brother. While there are no links between Chechen insurgents/jihadists/terrorists and Al Qaeda, there is a long and bloody record of Chechen terrorism against a dominant state that may have inspired the two Chechen American brothers to carry out their senseless act of terrorism

Two years ago, Brian Glyn Williams, a UMass Dartmouth professor of Islamic studies, helped Tsarnaev with a high school project about Chechnya. Williams was put in contact with the student through a friend who's a teacher at Cambridge Rindge & Latin, Tsarnaev's high school. The two communicated via email or telephone and never met face to face, even when Tsarnaev started attending the school.

The project was about Chechen history and the origins of its wars with Russia, and Williams got the impression that Tsarnaev was trying to reconnect with his ethnic identity and homeland.

Williams remembers Tsarnaev as polite and unremarkable. He doesn't recall any sort of political or religious discussions.

"It's sort of sickening," Williams said of the bombings.
