From the Telegraph
Minutes after Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had been found guilty of killing three people in a bomb attack on the 2013 Boston Marathon, his mother defended him in a message to a supporter’s group.
“I will never forget it. May god bless those who helped my son,” wrote Zubeidat Tsaernaeva. “The terrorists are the Americans and everyone knows it. My son is the best of the best. . . Tell everyone that I will never forget their support. May the creator bless them all for their support of my precious boy.”
The message was passed to the Vocativ website by a friend. It was also posted to the “Help for Dzhokhar” site hosted on a Russian social networking site, VKontakte.
His mother, a Russian native who left the US for Dagestan in 2012 after being charged with shoplifting, has always insisted that Dzhokhar and his late brother Tamerlan were innocent.
In a 2013 interview with The Telegraph, she said her son had been set up. “It’s a big show, a spectacle. Americans love a show,” she said.

To repeat those immortal words of Mandy Rice-Davies, ‘She would say that, wouldn’t she.’.
I know how to shut her up.
She’s described as a “Russian native”.
If she hasn’t inveigled American citizenship, she should be bundled onto a plane and sent back to Russia. Give her to the Bear.
Frankly, even if she *has* inveigled American citizenship, there needs to be a push to make possible the annulment of a citizenship that was plainly gained under false pretences. If she’s calling Americans “the real terrorists” (she is probably using the special Islamspeak definition of ‘terrorism’, namely, *anything* at all that is unislamic or impedes the advance of Islam in any way shape or form, such as…American law enforcement identifying and arresting her mass-murderous son), then her citizenship oath was not worth spit. Declare her Exile and Outlaw and put her on a plane for Russia with a one-way ticket. And every other Tsarnaev family member with her. Except for the little grandchild, the other – late unlamented – son’s toddler daughter…who should be removed from all contact with the Tsarnaevs, taken away from the dangerous convert-to-Islam jihad-enabling mother, and placed with a Russian Orthodox Christian family to be brought up as a good little Russo-American Orthodox Christian.
