Ever since last month's bombings at the Boston Marathon, speculation has abounded as to what led the perpetrators - suspected to be ethnic Chechens 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his 19-year-old brother, Dzhokhar - to carry out the most significant act of terrorism on U.S. soil since Sept. 11, 2001.
