The Boston bombing suspect who is the subject of a massive manhunt
reached out to a Massachusetts professor two years ago for help on
research "rediscovering his Chechen origins," the professor told FoxNews.com
Friday.Professor Brian Glyn Williams, who teaches the only course in the
U.S. on the Chechen wars, said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev emailed him in the
spring of 2011, asking questions on Chechen history for a research project
he was doing at the Cambridge Rindge and Latin School.Williams said that
based on conversations with a friend who taught Tsarnaev -- and who
recommended he reach out to Williams -- he learned that Tsarnaev was
"studying his past.""He was sort of in the process of vicariously rediscovering
his Chechen origins," the professor told FoxNews.com.Williams said that
after the student contacted him, he emailed back a syllabus. He said
he didn't even remember the interaction until he talked to a friend."It
freaked me out," he said. "I couldn't believe I communicated with this
psychopath."The detail comes amid swirling questions about the suspect's
motivations and roots. Tsarnaev is thought to be of Chechen origin, though
his family may be from the neighboring region of Dagestan. Chechnya, a
region in Russia, is known for its bloody conflict with the Russian
government -- but the region is also home to Islamic extremists.It remains
unclear what may have motivated the suspects. Their uncle, in an impassioned
and impromptu press

a three-day standoff, Russian troops stormed the school complex. More than
330 people, mostly children, died at the hands of the terrorists or
during the military siege.The shorthand recent history of the region began
as the Soviet Union was breaking apart in 1991. The ethnic Muslims
of the region sought the same independence obtained by the Baltic and
Eastern European Soviet states.But owing to the strategic importance of
the region for Russias oil industry and a long history of conflict
between Russians and the Muslim nations on the other side of the
Caucasus, the emerging government in Moscow refused to release Chechnya
and neighboring Ingushetia.(During World War II, the local residents had
tried to join forces with the Nazis. Josef Stalin delivered vicious reprisals
against the civilian population, including terror campaigns, forced relocations
and re-education camps. Subsequent Soviet leaders maintained much of this
policy.)The Chechen separatists declared their independence and using leftover
Soviet arms and under the leadership of former Soviet officers, prepared
to fight for it. Russian President Boris Yeltsin ordered troops into the
rebel province. The resulting conflict lasted two years as rebel guerrillas
exacted a heavy toll on demoralized Russian troops and members of the
indigenous Russian/Christian population. The Russians ended up retreating
in humiliation.For two years, the regi

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">nment Accountability Office found
that although the number of mental health records available to the background
check system increased 800 percent since 2004, some states said they were
not sharing mental health information because of concerns about restrictions
under HIPAA privacy law. Obama is interested in a change that would
specifically allow disclosure of mental health records for the system, and
he wants to increase financial incentives for states to contribute the information.In
the Virginia Tech rampage, student Seung-Hui Cho shot 32 people to death
and committed suicide. He was able to buy two guns even though
he had been ruled a danger to himself during a court hearing
in 2005 and was ordered to undergo outpatient mental health treatment.Authorities
have not described a possible motive or released details of any mental
health condition that might explain why Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza killed
20 children and six adults before killing himself. The rifle he used
was purchased by his mother, whom he also killed at home before
heading to the school.The background check system does not give retailers
access to mental health records but simply tells them whether a buyer
is approved, denied or needs additional investigation before a firearm may
be purchased. The system doesn't tell the seller why a potential buyer
was denied.
with them. European and North American authorities have watched with alarm
the rise of brutal tactics of the so-called Chechen Mafia in recent
years.A thousand years of history in the region is mostly the story
of occupation, retaliation, violence against civilians and conflict between
Islam and Christendom from Genghis Kahn and Tamerlane all the way
to today.Chris Stirewalt is digital politics editor for Fox News, and his
