Maybe this is gonna sound weird, but...

I'm really, really upset that they're Muslim. Over the past week, I've been desperately wanting it to not be a Muslim, because we all know how people react to that. Random innocent Muslims have already started being attacked for being "terrorists."

It's so stupid. No one ever says, "we need to be suspicious of all white teenage males because they're the ones most likely to shoot up schools!" But because Muslims are "different," a few easily become the many. Sure, there are extremist Muslims whose ideology leads them to hate the West, but that's not all Muslims by any stretch of the imagination. And, in this case, it may have nothing to do with it; the elder brother had just spent time in Russia, which isn't exactly happy with the US right now. The motivations could very well have been nationalist rather than religious.

It's just...it's a bad situation and I feel like it's now only going to be made worse by people giving in to bigotry.

I know exactly how you feel. I'm still kind of hoping (I mean, not really hoping, because it's horrible no matter what, but you know what I mean) that it turns out to be nationalist or personal rather than religious. Not that it should be better if it were that, but...

The older brother actually favors USA over Russia and Chechnya over USA. Unfortunately, religious extremism seem to be a better motivation in this case.

He did favor the US. He might not have after he came back from Russia.

But he's Chechen and he definitely did not like Russia and Russian's attitudes toward Chechnya.

Sure, but maybe the hierarchy switched from Chechnya > USA > Russia to Chechnya > Russia > USA.

Really, though, we just don't know at this point. His motivation could have been just about anything, but because he's Muslim, people have jumped to the conclusion that it's religiously motivated and started attacking other Muslims because of it. That shit's wrong, even if it turns out that he did get pulled into some radicalized branch of the religion.

Or none of that could have any relation to why he decided to bomb. The reason could be as simple as he was pissed off at the city because he didn't make his boxing title. (He was a boxer with a chance at being on the Olympic team.) The fact that he was Muslim or had lived overseas may have nothing to do with anything.

Considering witnesses have said the brothers were arguing over Islam, and how the "US government uses the bible to invade countries" (Fucking hilarious, as the extremists use their damn bible to incite wars in other countries), and that the bible "was just a cheep version of the Quran", and blahblah evil US government, I'm almost positive this was Muslim Extremist related.

He used a bomb that came right out of inspire terrorist magazine, it doesn't get any more obvious than that.
