The victims of the Boston jihad bombing didn’t fall for Dzhokhar’s hollow apology, a feeble attempt to save his own worthless life.
Victims React to Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Apology: ‘Nothing Sincere’
“I regret having ever wanted to hear him speak because what he said showed no remorse, no regret, and no empathy for what he’s done to our lives,” said Lynn Julian, who lives a block from the finish line where two bombs detonated on April 15, 2013, killing three and injuring more than 260.

Judge George O’Toole told Tsarnaev he had embraced a cruel God, heeded the jihadist “siren song” and engaged in “monstrous self-deception” to carry out the bombings. The judge quoted works by Shakespeare and Verdi as he formally imposed the death sentence — a decision already made by a federal jury.
An emotional Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev apologized Wednesday at his sentencing hearing for the April 2013 terror attack that killed three people and wounded more than 260 others.
“I would like to apologize to the victims and the survivors,” said Tsarnaev, who was sentenced to death. “I did do it.”
If there is any lingering doubt, let there be no more. I did it, along with my brother. “I ask Allah to have mercy on me, my brother and my family…
Now, I am sorry for the lives that I’ve taken, for the suffering that I’ve caused you, for the damage that I’ve done. Irreparable damage.
Allah said in the Quran that no soul is burdened with more than it can bear, and you told us just how unbearable it was, how horrendous it was, this thing I put you through,” he said. “I also wish that far more people had a chance to get up there (and speak), but I took them from you…”
“He can’t possibly have had a soul to do such a horrible thing,” said Karen Rand McWatters, who lost a leg in the attack and whose best friend, 29-year-old Krystle Campbell, was killed.
Campbell’s mother, Patricia Campbell, was the first person to address the court. She looked across the room at Tsarnaev, seated about 20 feet away, and spoke directly to him.
“What you did to my daughter is disgusting,” she said. “I don’t know what to say to you. I think the jury did the right thing.”
“He is a leech abusing the privilege of American freedom, and he spit in the face of the American dream,” said Jennifer Rogers, an older sister of slain MIT Officer Sean Collier.
Bill Richard, whose 8-year-old son Martin was the youngest person killed in the bombing, said Tsarnaev could have backed out of the plot and reported his brother to authorities.
Instead, Richard said, “He chose hate. He chose destruction. He chose death. This is all on him.”
“Tsarnaev apologizes for Boston Marathon bombing,” by Patricia Wen, Kevin Cullen, Milton J. Valencia, John R. Ellement and Martin Finucane, Boston Globe, June 24, 2015:
“I am sorry for the lives I have taken, for the suffering I have caused, and for the terrible damage I have done,” he said. He was hunched over and spoke with a slight accent.It was the first time Tsarnaev’s voice has been heard in federal court in Boston, other than to enter his not-guilty plea. His statement came after hours of heartwrenching testimony from relatives of those killed in the bombing and survivors of the blasts.
“I am Muslim. My religion is Islam. I pray to Allah to bestow his mercy on those affected in the bombing and their families,” he said. “I pray for your healing.”
Marathon bombing survivors and family members of victims attended the sentencing hearing for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
“I ask Allah to have mercy on me, my brother, and my family,” he said in his brief statement to a silent courtroom. Tsarnaev’s brother, his partner in the attack, was killed in a confrontation with police.
Tsarnaev had taken a sharp turn from a partying college student to self-radicalized terrorist bent on striking a blow against the United States.
The two bombs planted by Tsarnaev and his brother on April 15, 2013, exploded near the finish line of a festive, world-renowned athletic event, killing three and injuring more than 260 others, including 17 who lost limbs.
Tsarnaev was also convicted in the slaying of an MIT police officer several days after the bombing and in a violent confrontation with police in Watertown shortly afterwards.

Never underestimate your opponent.
Trump won’t play with fire. Trump will deal with it properly.
But if we elect hilary who is muslim friendly then the world as we know it will be destroyed.
The future is not for those who praise Jesus as the Lord and saviour of mankind. Rather than the false prophet mohamhed.
Freedom to terrorize is the new constitution according to obamariah.

i would’ve questioned him on how he can offer an apology and quote the koran when none of allah’s mercy applies to infidels and that his savage actions were sanctioned by his ‘holy’ book… see how mr. i-am-a-muslim-islam-is-my-religion, would’ve answered that.
if he were smart- not that it would’ve helped- he would have needed to denounce islam and the jihadist philosophy and put on a show of unrestrained drama and crying and theatrics.

WARNING.
(Time is running
out).
There is nothing in this country the government will not
give away!
The main point is this. Our president is a socialist muslim
and a good part of our government are muslims. Their intent is to bring the USA
down dividing the country along racial lines and destroying the economy. All that is required is enough strife and law
lessness in the country and there will be excuse to declare marshal law.
(Notice to all countries) We have been infiltrated and the takeover
in our country is imminent.
No visas for Christian immigrants in muslim countries
because they are Christians. (Muslim immigrants accepted).
The destruction of Israel as a nation making it totally
muslim.
The destruction of American might and trustworthiness among
the nations.
There is a RFID chip in your future so government can track
and control you.
Persecution of Christians and the Christian military
personal that exhibit and practice their faith and a one world church.
Perversion is readily acceptable and practiced while being
forced into the military by government.
Division of the country along racial lines (Divided and
Conquer). Open borders.
Total disarmament of the people is being pushed politically
from the president’s office down.
The complete implementation of EU, UN agenda 21, (sustainable
living).
A dictatorial government to regulate and control your life.
(WAKE UP AMERICANS and CHRISTIANS) YOU ARE NEXT VICTIM OF AN
ISLAM, GOVERNMENT and the socialistic UN and NWO.
War and the failure of our economy guarantees (EVERYONE)
will be affected. No escape and nowhere
to run.
A radical socialistic UN and a bought and paid for Republican
and democratic government (Rep. and Dems) want to import muslim people from
Syria and other failed muslim countries (to the USA) by the Hundreds of
Thousands. Open borders divide the country racially. They will slander anyone
who disagrees with their agenda and I disagree. Furthermore I am saying enough
is enough.
It is past time to stand up as an Americans (UNITED) and ORGANIZED
and put government in its proper CONSTITUTIONAL rightful place. NO MORE LAW
LESSness. Freedom is not free and if the people fail to protect their God given
rights they will have no more rights.
If I had my way I would tell the UN to go to hell. It is the
UN forcing these immigration issues in America through our treasonous government.
Who are your representatives working for?
(You or the UN)?
Then I would round up
every one of these Dems who are forcing this invasion on the American people
and demand they are tried for treason. Those who were not convicted I would
send to Syria or some other failed muslim hole. Let us see how long before the
muslims remove their heads.
ENOUGH of THIS.
I do not promote
Islam in any country and for sure not in my own country where islams only
concern has been to corrupt the system with more (TERROR) like sharia law and
their barbaric RELIGION and political principles.
You better wake up people this is nothing less than an
invasion with the intent of destroying the country, (USA) the Christians, Jews
and your way of life while promoting the socialistic NWO using Islam in the
process of producing a world socialistic caliphate. .
You want to face a knife at your throat or watch them rape your
wife or daughter, just ignore these warnings and do nothing.
Keep your guns, stock
up on ammo and pray while growing in faith.
If you do not have guns then buy one and get plenty of ammo with it. The
first step to bringing down a country is to disarm as many of its people as
possible. Unarmed people are helpless to stand against tyranny.
EVERY
Country these people have come into, (our) country and other
countries are now being forced to accept duel government with islam and sharia
law dividing the countries they immigrate into.
Their intent to the host country is for the host country to support
them. They do not assimilate into the countries they migrate into but settle
separately often taking up to four wives. They procreate like rabbits letting
the welfare systems take care of them. When they become strong enough
demographically they infiltrate the political system and demand the countries
adopt their life style and laws. Always the intent has been to divide and
conquer.
THIS stinks to hi heaven, AND I SAY ENOUGH. PAST TIME TO
CLEAN HOUSE AND WE NEED TO START WITH THE WHITE HOUSE AND WORK DOWN.
A muslim president and government are not acceptable or
compatible in a Constitutional republic or democratic society. Muslim will not
accept Constitutional law, as muslims they considering themselves
to be above it.
Your law and you yourselves are considered inferior and
therefore you are to be subjugated as a slave or killed. (YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS
UNLESS YOU CONVERT TO ISLAM).
I am a Christian and if this government thinks I will set
quietly by and let them destroy my country and eventually destroy my family and
myself I say NO!
(ENOUGH) I am going to say lock and load America.
I am not and animal and I am not going to be slaughtered
like and animal or forced to accept islam or pay as a slave to live in my
country. Nor am I going to set ideally and do nothing while my family is set up
for this satanic system.
Americans for Americans.

Just some thoughts for today’s
world.
Where do we go what do we do? What
do we need to do?
I was just asked almost the same
question by a woman looking for answers. Here is what I wrote her back.
I wish I had an easy answer to how to fix the
problems in our country. Just do this, ABC etc. and all will be well.
But the situation is too vast and
complex. This I will say.
The biggest issue today is the
people themselves. We have Fallen away from God and continue to destroy the
moral foundation this country was established on.
Destroying the moral and ethical
foundations this country was built on has resulted in a major portion of our
problems.
The result has been a mealy mouth
people with no moral or ethical boundaries looking to government to fix their
problems. Government is a big part of the problem. Socialism or communism wants
to play god.
First thing that needs to be done is
2 Chron. 7:13-14. Open your Bible and read it. Then act accordingly on it.
The second thing is to get our
families in order, physically, mentally and
Spiritually. The values of the
people of this country stink to high heaven.
We have advance technology but live
like cave men and women
lusting after the flesh and sacrificing
our children, (abortion) for the
comfort and conveyance of our flesh.
We have made ourselves perverse and abomination using those technologies to do
evil rather than good. And the rest of the world rightfully now looks down on
America as evil rather than the light and hope she used to be.
As a result of we the people the
country suffers a perverse government and have become an abomination to
ourselves and the other countries we have supported and worked with. (The
elected government reflects the will of the majority of its people). (All
suffer).
(Accountability), we have sown evil
and now we are reaping evil.
I do not know if we can change the
path this country is headed down. But I do know as a God fearing Christian,
change starts with us individually. (Judgment begins in the house of the Lord).
Only then can we hope for law and order to be restored.
And that would allow us to stand
before our enemies on the high moral grown being an example of good and not
despised as evil.
For now the only thing I can tell
you is to: join together with others who share your faith and moral values.
There is strength in numbers.
Get involved and hold local
political authorities accountable to keep the law. (Moral and Judicial). No one
is above the law.
If you own a gun, make sure you have
plenty of ammo for it and are proficient in its use.
If you do not own a gun then buy one
and learn how to use it.
Luke 22:35 Jesus asked his
disciples, “When I sent you out without a moneybag or a traveling bag or
sandals, did you need anything?” “No!” they answered.
Luke 22:36 Jesus told them,
“But now, if you have a moneybag, take it with you. Also take a traveling
bag, and if you don’t have a sword, sell some of your clothes and buy one.
We live in a time of law less ness,
(Prepare).
Grow strong in your faith, learn to
pray by faith get next to the Lord and be blessed.
Prepare physically, mentally and
spiritually allowing God to strengthen and prepare you for what is coming.
No easy answers my friend but it all
starts with us as individuals. We go from there.
Jesus Christ is Lord.

The murderous rampage started well before the Boston massacre and continued afterwards.
The 2 jihadis brothers had already celebrated the anniversary of 9/11 by decapitating 3 young Jewish men in Waltham, MA, on September 11, 2011. One of the victims at least had been befriended by Tamerlan, but that didn’t prevent him from cutting the throat of the one he had been calling “my best friend”. Chances are that they didn’t stop their killing spree between that time and the 2013 Boston bombing, they may actually be responsible for several “unsolved” murders committed during that span of time. And after the Boston bombing, they went on slaying a policeman and kidnapping a man they would have killed too if he had not managed to escape. Before, during and after April 15, 2013, they reveled in their favorite past time: slaughter. That’s what jihadis do.
Now the remaining serial killer has the gall to insult our intelligence by claiming he is sorry for the carnage at the Boston marathon! I bet that if he had been charged for the other murders he would have followed his lawyer’s advice and expressed his regrets too.
My own regret is that he has not been hanged yet.

the federal officials who allowed this monster into and out of the country and allowed him to murder all those people are accessories to murder. i cannot understand why lawyers for the families aren’t going after the personal assets of every federal official who allowed this to happen. this is the only way to way to make these worthless federal employees think twice about importing all these muslims with impunity

If it were up to me, he would die in the following manner: Strip him naked. Tie his arms behind his back. Tie a rope around his family jewels. Toss the rope over a horizontal pole, approximately 10 feet off the ground. Give the rope a quick yank. While he is dangling from his genitalia, cut out both of his eyes with a rusty pocket knife. Finally, continuously poke him with a cattle prod while he slowly bleeds to death through his empty eye sockets. Every time he opens his mouth to scream in agony, squirt some hot Tabasco sauce into it. Any objections?

islam is NOT a religion. It is a cult.
