"get yourself busy; study or work; you'll become useful to yourself. when you become useful to yourself, you'll become useful to your family." Goodness gracious is this true. Of course there is no one sentence you could read to a young man to guarantee that you change his life for the better but this is about as close as you can get.

This is an eloquent conversation about how a young person can be recruited or easily caught up in jihad. Thank you Ruslan Tsarni for sharing how influence and radicalization happened in your family. So much sorrow and horror for the victim's of this horrible crime...my heart and prayers are with all of them. And yes prayers for Ruslan and family, what a nightmare to live thru... imagine this is your uncle, or brother that did this.
What an amazing, insightful, and touching interview. I wish I had an uncle like this. So genuine and sincere the way he speaks of his family.

This man seems very sincere, intelligent, honest and proud to be an American. He carries himself very well!! I think he was a great uncle and tried his best to help his nephews but they went a different way and this gentleman was smart enough to distance himself and his family from the terrible people his nephews became. You can tell he is very sorry for what has happened to the victims. God Bless you and your family and may you continue to do well!!!
at 13:40 he names each of the dead victims...that was touching
Uncle’s last words are golden: “T didn’t just ruin his own life and hurt a ton of people, he destroyed D’s life as well.” That my friends, is pretty much nothing short of a cardinal sin in the Caucuses, cuz you are supposed to protect and be a role model for the youngsters in the household, and the entire family in general !!! So much human potential and innocent lives lost in vain…😢😢
I like what Ruslan says, I like his mannerisms, I feel comfortable listening to him. Ruslan seems to be an honest dude, it's so sad that in his existence, as peaceful as he is, that he has to be associated with the legacy of terrorists, of Dzokhar and Termerlan. Peace and love Ruslan, best of luck, and I hope you have fruitful life.
13:44 he names the victims is honorable. Him crying for the older nephew breaks my heart. He loved those boys although his relationship with his brother and wife was rocky. Hope he heals he should know he has the right to mourn his nephew. No one should tell him otherwise despite his nephews actions

At the end of the day, 6 lives perished: the 4 victims and the lost souls of 2 young men. These touching and lucid words from the boy's uncle come to remind us that suffering is unconditional and universal. Their grief, although confronted with confusing senses of injustice for the rest of us, is as deep, strong and heartrending as anyone else's. Seeing a beloved person becomes so spiritually rotten and harmful must be as hurtful as seeing him/her suffer or die. We should comfort one another...

This is an excellent interview and I have a great amount of respect for the uncle for being so honest and all-emcompassing in expressing himself and his thoughts on the terror that his nephews wrought and the circumstanes that may have led up to it. And I'm so glad that he showed such respect for the victims.
He's an honest person. I'm glad we have immigrants in America like this man.
I think this man is sincere, real tears, real emotions, from his side this is all he knows.
Very tragic for everyone involved. My heart goes out to all the families on both sides of this tragedy. He put so much of this in a perspective I hadn't considered.
Thanks for posting this ....more need to see it.
“Tamerlan, get yourself busy. Study or work. Become something useful to yourself. When you become useful to yourself, you’ll become useful to your family. And there may be some extra left, and you’ll be able to share it with whoever you want. This is the path you want, this is the path you need to have. Anything else beyond that is confused.” Ruslan was too good for Tamerlan.

I'm happy i have an uncle like this. Some people are just one advice away from destruction.
I have so much respect for this man. I really do.
I hope Dzhokar reaches out to him,he seems like a good man. This whole situation is just sad.
those boys seem very much left alone without a direction in america with their parents being back in chechnya ..and the way their parents are,especially mother, had an influence on them inclining towards more radical views..so they got caught up in those spheres in cambridge which is unfortunate..and no matter how sad he is now, their uncle doesn't seem to have cared much about them either, he didn't even want to see Jahar...seems like these boys,especially the younger one Jahar, were left without a family and/or reasonable guidance in america and eventually lost direction.. very unfortunate for everyone involved in this incident..
this breaks my heart
You are a good man and I'm sorry you have to be associated with this tragedy.
I appreciate his speaking out. He did clear up a lot of things. First of all, he's absolutely right, Islam and Chechnya had nothing to do with this. Tamerlan Tsarnaev wasn't some jihadist diehard muslim. He only acted like one because it gave him an excuse to fail at life. This was a man who knew he was failing at life, and wanted the world to pay for his shortcomings and for everyone to know his name. He brought along his younger brother who was a stoner deeply in debt, failing out of college, and without any direction. Terrorizing a whole city gave them the power they knew they'd never have in life. They didn't care if they were throwing away their lives. Their lives were meaningless anyways. These two had nothing at all to do with Chechnya. They never lived there, barely ever went there. They grew up in Kyrgyzstan. They never settled anywhere they lived. They were just as unable to fit in within Chechnya as in America.
It must be a horrible feeling to know your loved one is accused of an unspeakable crime and the world makes you feel like you have no right to even grieve for them because of what they did. This man is so hurt; I hate that the bombing victims and these boy's family and friends are going through this. I mean, this man has to sit by helplessly and watch the world potentially destroy his nephew. It breaks my heart for all involved.
His English vocabulary amazes me! I would like to know more about this very interesting man.
The uncle is a good moral man. May he find peace.
i don't even know this guy but he seems really cool those
As an aunt who LOVES my nephews like they were my own sons, I TOO would be so angry at my brother for helping turn my nephews into monsters!😪
Seriously an uncle have no control over a grown up, he is not the father. He can't discipline nor give order to another man child in order to make thing right even fully aware of something is wrong. Somehow only the authority is equipped sufficiently to handle terrorists effectively and stop terrorism , not a closed family member who happen to be the only decent human being left in this evil family.
The uncle seems like a very good, honest, and sincere man.
Such a great man. I have so much respect for this guy.
Thanks for you’re Honesty - I felt the same way when I Sean there pictures. Two good looking young men - what happened? We better find out or more of the young will be lost.
He expressed what was on his mind very clearly and casually...
I appreciate the views of this introspective uncle. His views are balanced - well researched, sympathetic of different views and cultures, and generally knowledgeable. I am sorry such an admirable man would find himself in this very bad predicament, associated with loved family members who have carried out such heinous crimes. I hope that people will not judge him alongside of the perpetrators. He strikes me as a kind, loving, knowledgeable and honorable man.
The way this guy talks is so intelligent, he doesn't come at you like he is a part of this family problem but almost like an outsider looking in. I like the fact that he doesn't stick up for the brothers but really explains it the way he sees it and the way it really is
Wow great interview
Amazing how well composed Ruslan is through all of this. Can only be grateful how open he is being with the press.

Dude is so lovable!!
Wow. Very emotional.
WOW... He actuallly remembers the names of the 4 people that died that day the bomb went off..... He thinks about them often...

OK. Thanks.
Oh, the “he was hanging out with the wrong crowd” is an international excuse.
This interview is deeply moving and extremely important on a number of levels. In terms of the investigation, Tsarni seems certain that such an operation could have been planned entirely locally. On a more personal level, you can see the frustration and regret he has for his alienation from his nephews. Anyone who has tried to talk sense into a 20-something can relate to this. The "demons" he's speaking about are not limited to Islam; there are versions of them in all religions and ideologies.

Very well said... extremism comes from all religions and someone who is young, lost and struggling to find their purpose are ripe for the picking. They are easily manipulated into believing the purpose of the person who is molding them is their own purpose. To me both these young me were used by this "extremist" to act out his ideologies that he was too chicken poop to do himself! Most suicide bombers or just bombers in general have been manipulated into having purpose by people who want to reap the aftermath and benefits they feel will eventually come if they cause enough destruction. They will somehow become these great leaders with wealth and power off the blood and sacrifice of the weak minded and innocent lives they take. Just my opinion though.
I feel sorry for him! There is no doubt that he is a good person!
This is a very intelligent and thoughtful man.
WHY is their uncle speaking to reporters on tv one day after his nephew's arrest? Isn't this strange considering at the time, there was a legal process still ahead for his nephew? He could speak to his nephew privately w his concerns. This does not make any sense.

On Frame : 2:54 he makes the most relevant point. "What are you doing for work?". If the people who have joined these terrorist groups had real jobs and lives, a lot of this BS would stop. They are enticed by the drama and attention and many do this because they have no real wage to support themselves or their families.
All people shouting conspiracy theories, just LOOK at him. This is a man of strong convictions. Any person with half a brain can tell you that he was talking genuinely.
I like the Uncle. He seems sincere and he is sad about his nephews being bombers.
I am muslim and I believe the day of the boston marathon tragedy was not just a sad day for America but a sad day for humanity.
this is a good man.
First, he is a lovely human being and he even feels bad about calling them losers! You can clearly feel his pain and shame to know that his family was behind this horror!!! I do think he misunderstood the question about whether he thinks his nephews are guilty, I think he thought he was asking about innocent vs. guilty. I do absolutely believe that the older brother influenced the younger one who looked up to him. The responsibility of being born first, you’re supposed to be Responsible and guide your younger siblings to do the right thing and he steered him in the worst direction😞😢 Now, as for hearing the children and whomever else in the house, it totally reminded me of that viral BBC video of the man giving the interview via Skype and the children burst in 🥴🤣🤣🤣 I can never think of a video where I laughed harder!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
A great guy and uncle.. I'm sorry your nephews disappointed you in more ways than one. My heart is sad for all sides.. It is just a sad and heart breaking case matter.
This guy reminds me of my uncle very wise man
this is heart breaking. Uncle Ruslan, I wish you were my uncle, I hope you move on brother, you did your best.
I feel so sad for this family. :(
Seems well spoken & honest. Can't be easy considering....my sympathy to all the victims.
Amazing man.
Ruslan Tsarni should just spit it out. The mother is a major culprit. You can easily see that Tamerlan got his facial expressions (genetic) and religious zeal (psychological) from the mother. Ruslan has contempt for the mother and does not feel that she is a genuine Muslim. I bet that Ruslan also feels that her poor parenting contributed to a confused, supremacist, jihadist son. From watching videos of her, she is so emotional and uneducated to me. Her brain has not developed beyond high school. I did not detect any higher level thinking/cognitive function from her interviews whatsoever. Just religious brainwashing.
GGG in the future?

I am muslim and when my hindu teacher once asked me( many moon ago).What do you want to do in life?.I replied with my faith and conviction what allah wishes or if allah wills it meaning insha allah.I did not in my mind use allah as a mean to terrorism and kill or terrorise or bully my neighbour.For a muslim to say insha allah is not a predisposition to murder in any shape or form. Listen to the uncle when interviewd by many journalist.At that time he sounded fluent in English as in charge.
If Richard Ramirez, a more aggressive male killer can die in prison at age 56, I wholeheartedly advocate for Dhokar to rot in prison and die around the same age. The same punishment for differing concentrations of evil thoughts.
