Body of a Terrorist

Insult To America

The corpse of the dead terrorist, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the older brother in the Boston Marathon bombing is in a burial limbo. The funeral director who prepared the cadaver is now stuck without a place to bury him. No cemetary will accept the body. Is this a surprise to anyone? His burial here, anywhere, is in itself an insult and a desecration of American soil.

Please, someone with common sense send this boy's remains back to Dagesstan or Chechnya, or wherever he felt his allegiance strongest. It certainly wasn't the U.S.A. The parents of the bombing brothers have continually insulted all Americans in their denials and accusations. Calling the tragedy a Hoax is disgraceful. They have been crude and scornfull, especially toward the families of those killed and injured in the bombings.

It will be a mistake to bury this terrorist in American soil. This is a body that will never rest, dead or alive-in-spirit, nor should it. What is the thinking of Homeland Security, law enforcement, FBI, INS, everyone who has suffered because of the week-long events following the Monday bombings? This terrorist does not deserve burial in the land that he defiled. Send it back.

America has become the piñata of the world, everyone can take a swipe. Given asylum here as young boys, the Tsarnaev brothers chose to attack the country that has been kindest to them. Their country of choice. This is the consumate insult. Killing the hand that feeds you, maiming and slaughtering innocent people of your own country. We should be tired of people using the U.S. as a doormat.

Our government MUST send the body of Tamarlan Tsarnaev back to the government from which he came.
