Boston Marathon Bombing suspect, Dzhokar Tsarnaev left a note on the walls of the boat where he was hiding before being arrested after a shoot-out.
Sources tell John Miller, of CBS News senior correspondent,
that Tsarnaev wrote the note in the boat he was hiding in as police
pursued him, and as he bled from gunshot wounds sustained in an earlier
shootout between police and his older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev.The note, scrawled with a pen on the interior wall of the cabin, said
the bombings were retribution U.S. military action in Afghanistan and
Iraq, and called the Boston victims collateral damage in the way Muslims
have been in the American-led wars. "When you attack one Muslim, you
attack all Muslims," He added that he didn't mourn older brother Tamerlan - the other
suspect in the bombings - writing that by that point, Tamerlan was a
martyr in paradise - and that Dzhokar expected to join him there.Miller's sources say the wall the note was written on was riddled
with bullet holes from shots fired into the boat. The shots were fired
after Dzhokhar came up through the tarp that was covering on the boat
and a police officer watching that side of the boat thought Dzhokhar had
another bomb.
