I'm relieved that the bombing suspect is in custody and that fear is over for the Boston area. But, just what we need, and what the image of Islam and Muslims in this country needed; two young Muslim males (one dead) accused of a terrorist act. I also heard of the people chanting "U-S-A, U-S-A" after the youngest brother was captured. Well, he was a naturalized citizen, too, and the older had a green card. Much of their family was here or in Canada. I hope and pray this doesn't come down to radicalized Islamic beliefs or some kind of protest against the 1990's war in Chechnya-but I have a sinking feeling. What other reasons could there be?

And for crying out loud, get Chechnya and the Czech Republic straight.
