"Muhammad spent four months in the prison before U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., was able to intercede with the State Department on his behalf, Hensley said. While in prison, Muhammad faced torture and beatings from jailers, prisoners or both that left him scarred, the lawyer said."

I would say he was mired in islam as are all muslims.

[Big_Monkey]

So, he gets beat in Yemen, but takes it out on his home country? What a nut.

Well, his problems are going to be over soon enough when Arkansas sticks the needle in him. He can take up his grievances with Allah after he finishes with his 72 virgins.

[txroadkill]

this is the first successful terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11 and barely a peep out of the MSM.

“The man accused of fatally shooting a soldier outside a recruiting center”

Hello Associated Press! You left out part of the story:

The man accused of fatally shooting a soldier AND CRITICALLY WOUNDING ANOTHER outside a recruiting center

[This_far]

The FBI did this to me, the FBI did that me.

So I shot a soldier.

[DTogo]

Cry me a river. Feed him to the hogs...

Allahu Fubar

[Never on my watch]

Shooting? In Arkansas? Of a Soldier? By an Islamic terrorist?

When did this happen?

Gee, you’d think something like that would be in the news.(end sarcasm)

Just put this rabid dog down.

First question: What U.S. Citizen goes to Yemen, unless they’ve already been radicalized, and are seeking terrorist training?

I realize former Yemeni nationals would. Certain business people would too. But as a convert to Islam in the U.S. with no family or business ties to Yemen, it doesn’t make any sense at all to go to Yemen, unless...

[Gay State Conservative]

Translation...”Bush’s fault”.

[cva66snipe]

Oh The Curly Defense. He’s a victim of Surcumstance /sarcasm. Hang E’m high with a new short rope.

While in prison, Muhammad faced torture and beatings from jailers, prisoners or both that left him scarred, the lawyer said."

Too bad they didn't torture him just a little bit more...like they did Daniel Pearl.

[MediaMole]

How about this headline?

Democrat Congressman Gets Terrorist Released From Yemen Jail. Terrorist Returns to Launch Attack.

Cohen should be held responsible for this attack.

[SueRae]

horsecrap of a defens. Get him off the planet.

[Fitzy_888]

He had a calling...

Sounds like his Lawyer also missed his calling, he could write those three dollar paperback romance novels they sell in the super market.

Lawyer Jim Hensley described Abdulhakim Muhammad as an impressionable youth driven to public service in an impoverished Middle Eastern country

I know lawyers will say absolutely anything, but really - "driven to public service?"

[SoldierDad]

I keep hearing people on Fox and other news outlets referring to this person as being a “Home Grown Terrorist”. I think your thread here should be adequate to put that theory to rest - obviously he wasn’t a disenfranchised American youth who turned to Islam after being poorly treated here.

[Flint]

All this had to happen during the last administration. It’s Bush’s fault.

[Califreak]

These guys are always victims, no matter what they’ve done wrong. I guess the old “He was just turning his life around” is all used up by now.

So what?

McCain(not that I’m a big fan or anything like that)was tortured and he didn’t go shooting up a VA Hospital or anything like that.

"Muhammad spent four months in the prison before U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., was able to intercede with the State Department on his behalf, Hensley said.

Oh, look what Mr. Cohen's previous claim to fame is:
