REVEALED: The Boston Marathon Bomber Twitter Account

by John Hawkins | April 19, 2013 2:00 pm

BroBible[1] has confirmed with more than one of his classmates that the Twitter account @j_tsar is owned by the one remaining Boston Marathon bomber, Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev.

Some of the tweets are rather noteworthy, like these two from April 17. One is a retweet from a mufti.

Attitude can take away your beauty no matter how good looking you are or it could enhance your beauty, making you adorable.

That followed this tweet.

I’m a stress free kind of guy

— Jahar (@J_tsar) April 17, 2013[4]

Then there’s this Boston Bombing related conversation.

It would be interesting to see what this conversation was about.

@therealabdul_[8] #heavy[9] I’ve been looking for those, there is a shortage on the black market if you wanna make a quick buck, nuff said..

Same goes for this conversation.

@mellochamp[11] and they what “god hates dead people?” Or victims of tragedies? Lol those people are cooked

— Jahar (@J_tsar) April 16, 2013[12]

Here’s another tweet of note.

Ain’t no love in the heart of the city, stay safe people

— Jahar (@J_tsar) April 16, 2013[13]

Not all of them were ominous though. This one is kind of funny.

Dreams really do come true, last night I dreamt I was eating a cheeseburger and in the afternoon today, guess what I was eating…

— Jahar (@J_tsar) April 12, 2013[14]

Most of his tweets appear to be goofy, silly tweets of the sort you’d expect from a young kid his age.

Got me a haircut, I don’t usually do those

— Jahar (@J_tsar) April 13, 2013[15]

I was gonna go for a 6am run aha I’m joking I woke up to eat some Nutella

— Jahar (@J_tsar) March 22, 2013[16]

This kid certainly doesn’t seem to fit the disconnected, socially awkward loner pattern that we’ve seen from people like James Holmes and Adam Lanza. He also seems to be a fan of Game of Thrones and Nutella, which again, doesn’t sound like an Osama Bin Laden wannabe. So, was his brother the bad guy and was he just following along? Did he join “TEAM JIHAD” at the last moment? Is this something that he has been planning for a long time and this is all part of a carefully calculated front? We just don’t have those answers yet. Hopefully in time, we’ll get a fuller picture of what really happened.
