Accused Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev’s writings as he hid inside a Watertown boat were presented to the jury in US District Court in Boston, where Tsarnaev is on trial for his role in the April 15, 2013 bombings that killed three people and wounded 260 others.

On Tuesday, Boston Police Officer Todd Brown, a member of the department’s bomb squad, testified that he searched the boat parked in David Henneberry’s back yard to make sure that there were no explosive devices in it after Tsarnaev was discovered hiding there.

No bombs were found, but Brown said he did notice some writing in pencil, words that were partially obscured by blood stains at some points and pocked with bullet holes in others.

And the full message:

“I’m jealous of my brother who

ha (hole) ceived the reward of jannutul Firdaus (inshallah) before me. I do not mourn because his soul is very much alive. God has a plan for each person. Mine was to hide in his boat and shed some light on our actions I ask Allah to make me a shahied (iA) to allow me to return to him and be among all the righteous people in the highest levels of heaven.

He who Allah guides no one can misguide

A (hole) bar!

I bear witness that there is no God but Allah

and that Muhammad is his

messenger (hole) r actions came

with (hole) a (hole) ssage and that

is (hole) ha Illalah. The U.S.

Government is killing our innocent

civilians but most of you already

know that. As a M (hole) I can’t

stand to see such evil go unpunished,

we Muslims are one body, you hurt

one you hurt us all, well at least that’s

how Muhammad (pbuh) wanted it to be (hole) ever,

the ummah is beginning to rise/awa (hole)

has awoken the mujahideen, know you are

fighting men who look into the barrel of your

gun and see heaven, now how can you compete

with that. We are promised victory and we

will surely get it. Now I don’t like killing

innocent people it is forbidden in Islam

but due to said (hole) it is allowed.

All credit goes (hole)”

 

[A_Gorilla]

What an ass(hole)

 

[Stinkles]

Douche(hole).

 

[Volimar]

Guys, he was totally strong armed by his brother though.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

All credit goes (hole)

I laughed more than I really should have considering his crimes.

 

[ginger ninja]

Honestly thought that it would be less assholish, i had some sympathy for the defense stance that he was led astray by his brother but after this, nope. He seems perfectly aware of what he was doing, so choping block for you son.

 

[Sajjaja]

What an ass(hole)

lol

 

[Twilight Gap]

that's a (hole) lot of contradictions.

 

[Kurdel]

Keeping the (hole)s in the transcript is unintentionally hilarious.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

What an ass(hole)

Lol

 

[TxdoHawk]

It's weirdly poetic and sad all at once. "Religious" rantings of a madman, doused in his own blood and the very same violence he perpetrated.

 

[Ferrio]

Yep fucking psycho. Even states he doesn't like it and knowingly killed innocents, still does it anyways. Did way worse for your cause in doing so to.

I think it's all disappointingly trite.

Pretty much.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Yep fucking psycho. Even states he doesn't like it and knowingly killed innocents, still does it anyways.

but due to said (hole) it was allowed.

 

[PlayALLtheGames]

Now I don’t like killing

innocent people it is forbidden in Islam

but due to said (hole) it is allowed.

So it's forbidden except when it isn't.

Ok.

 

[AlexMogil]

I want a dramatic reading with the word hole replaced with wacky sound effects

Allah the most holey

Holey scripture

 

[Kurdel]

but due to said (hole) it was allowed.

To be fair, he does say all credit goes (hole)

 

[Ferrio]

I want a dramatic reading with the word hole replaced with wacky sound effects

Old fashioned stock richochet sound

 

[Kinyou]

All credit goes (hole)

I laughed more than I really should have considering his crimes.

I hate those cliffhangers.

 

[Emperor_Uriel]

Pretty good handwriting for a shrimp being hunted by a massive squad of cops. Just goes to show how warped the mind of the extremist is, that he can be so irritatingly calm.

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

Dude got smoked up.

Edit: I remember listening to the live broadcasts of the hunt on GAF. Memories!

 

[AAK]

WTF wasn't he bleeding and injured? How are you supposed to be able to write straight and so neatly in that state.

 

[lamaroo]

So he says himself that killing innocents is forbidden, but expects to get into his heaven anyway?

 

[esms]

So it's forbidden except when it isn't.

Ok.

The rationale is so fucking stupid.

 

[DrGonzo615]

What an ass(hole)

one and done!

 

[Sajjaja]

WTF wasn't he bleeding and injured? How are you supposed to be able to write straight and so neatly in that state.

Maybe before the boat got shot up?

 

[StopMakingSense]

I find it remarkable he managed to survive the boat shootout.

 

[Kenshin001]

Now I don’t like killing

innocent people it is forbidden in Islam

but due to said (hole) it is allowed.

Which hole allows killing innocents in Islam? If we could destroy this hole maybe jihadis would stop killing innocents all over the world.

 

[Alucrid]

I don't think that boat belonged to allah

 

[Monocle]

Could he have written a more cliched and stereotypical message if he tried?

 

[Lamel]

Allah please bring me to the highest levels of heaven for killing innocent people.


Lol.

 

[ProfessorLobo]

Hope he wasn't planning on pleading insanity with that last minute manifesto.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Could he have written a more cliched and stereotypical message if he tried?

Nope. And you just know he believed every word of it.

 

[Mayyhem]

Allah please bring me to the highest levels of heaven for killing innocent people.


Lol.

I imagine a world with no religion. Man oh man. Beautiful

 

[AlexMogil]

I imagine a world with no religion. Man oh man. Beautiful

Imagine there's no (hole)en
It's easy if you try
No hell be(hole) us
(hole) us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for (hole)

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to (hole)or die for
And no relig(hole)oo
Imagine all the people
(hole)life in peace...

You may say I'm (hole)eamer
But I'm(hole)the only one
(hole)e someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

 

[terrisus]

I imagine a world with no religion. Man oh man. Beautiful

I would have killed myself a while ago if that were the case, but obviously you just wanted to get that shot in.

Imagine there's no (hole)en

Now see, this person knows how to actually make something that comes across as a joke.

 

[FLEABttn]

Honestly thought that it would be less assholish, i had some sympathy for the defense stance that he was led astray by his brother but after this, nope. He seems perfectly aware of what he was doing, so choping block for you son.

Lol what, being led astray is your friend convincing you that tagging a public wall is a good idea, not bombing a marathon.

 

[FZZ]

Allah please bring me to the highest levels of heaven for killing innocent people.


Lol.

Seriously

I imagine a world with no religion. Man oh man. Beautiful

That wasn't Lamel's point and have you seen the South Park episode where everyone on the planet was an atheist?

Nothing would be different. Same shit, different reasoning.

 

[Someglan]

A very misguided soul. Seeing stuff like this makes me very sad. I can't empathize with anyone involved....

 

[Gonzalez]

Wait is this (hole) the hole in the sheet that allows you to commit any sin you want as long as its through that hole?

 

[Nitsuj23]

Seriously



That wasn't Lamel's point and have you seen the South Park episode where everyone on the planet was an atheist?

Nothing would be different. Same shit, different reasoning.

Although I do think there would still be disagreements about whatever, you can't base reality on a South Park episode. We'd at least have people not willing to look down a barrel of a gun to see heaven...

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Did the boat owner get to keep that?

 

[DarkKyo]

It's unreal. The message and the way the holes are placed, redacting some words, are like something you'd see in a movie.

 

[Chariot]

Bullet spoiler tags, intriguing.

 

[dyergram]

WTF wasn't he bleeding and injured? How are you supposed to be able to write straight and so neatly in that state.

He also managed to try to kill himself with a gun he didn't have...

 

[terrisus]

We'd at least have people not willing to look down a barrel of a gun to see heaven...

And in exchange you would have a whole bunch of people who would be less inhibited in what they did because they wouldn't feel they had to answer for it later.

The whole point is really moot to a discussion about someone who went and killed a bunch of people.

 

[Deified Data]

When this guy lies dying of old age in his solitary cell I hope his realization that nothing awaits him but black nothing is especially chilling.

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

Did the boat owner get to keep that?

Valid question.

 

[bobeth]

And in exchange you would have a whole bunch of people who would be less inhibited in what they did because they wouldn't feel they had to answer for it later.

That's bull..

The whole point is really moot to a discussion about someone who went and killed a bunch of people.

because of god... I think that makes it very relevant.
