Follow the money trail, please

Haven’t seen or heard of any snooze media story yet on where the Boston Jihadis got their cash, not to mention their explosives and detonators. Such a traditional story, too, as Peggy Noonan makes plain:

“Who or what supported them? They had cellphones, computers, stylish clothes, sunglasses, gym equipment and gym membership, enough money to go out to dinner and have parties. They had an arsenal of guns and money to make bombs. The elder brother, Tamerlan, 26, had no discernible record of employment [but a wife and a child]…The younger brother, Dzhokhar, [19] was a college student, but no word on how he came up with spending money.”

I’m sure the snoozers are feverishly trying to track down the racial/social grievances of the brothers, since they can’t do the Jihadi angle without upsetting their patron King Pinocchio. But the least they could is follow the money trail. Pretty please?

UPDATE:  Well, it seems that the Boston Herald is interested. They found that until 2012 the deceased boxer was on state welfare. Then his Islam-converted wife started working 80 hours a week as a health aide and he was no longer eligible. He stayed home, apparently taking care of their child, unless his in-laws were doing it. That seems to account for some of his money. No word yet on his baby-faced brother.
