re: #109 ausador
From the limited information we have so far and the totally inept bomb design I would have to guess that this is more about mental illness than it is about Islam.Anyway, I think that is what they were saying about how his “Motives were not clear.”
I think what we may be seeing is what happens when a young man who’s deeply screwed up goes off the edge—and happens to have cultural and regional ties to places where radical Islam thrives. “I can car-bomb Times Square and then flee to Pakistan, where I will be a hero, and not have to be a not-too-successful financial consultant with a wife and two kids in Connectricut.”
