Edit: see Chechnya is over by Azerbaijan. And the other cousin was born in Kyrgyzstan.

They still look white in the pictures though. I am already starting to see people call them Muslim or Islamic extremists. They are brothers, not cousins. I hope they get the younger one alive so we can get some answers and avoid all the conspiracy theories about how they were just scapegoats.

Originally from Chechnya, but living in the United States since five years, Tamerlan says: "I don't have a single American friend, I don't understand them." -SOURCE
"If he wins enough fights there, Tamerlan says he could be selected for the US Olympic team and be naturalized American. Unless his native Chechnya becomes independent, Tamerlan says he would rather compete for the United States than for Russia." -SAME SOURCE AS ABOVE

Tamerlan fled Chechnya with his family because of the conflict in the early 90s, and lived for years in Kazakhstan before getting to the United States as a refugee. Tamerlan says he doesn't usually take his shirt off so girls don't get bad ideas: "I'm very religious." " -SAME SOURCE AS ABOVE

"Tamerlan says he doesn't drink or smoke anymore: "God said no alcohol." A muslim, he says: "There are no values anymore," and worries that "people can't control themselves." Tamerlab says his girlfriend is half Portuguese, half Italian girlfriend and converted to Islam: "She's beautiful, man!" "- SOURCE
