What if the rest of the country had been privilege to the facts that the locals, to a degree, and even the facts that we FReepers have been able to dig up?

It's just STUNNING how little attention this is getting.  I first heard some details Saturday night.  Sunday I looked around and actually decided it must be a hoax due to the lack of coverage.  Thanks to some posts here, I've seen the local news coverage and know most of the details.

However, in just talking with the folks around the office here (in Philadelphia), even the better informed of them haven't heard about this at all!  I send links to the local news, because that's about as convincing that it actually occurred as you'll find, and they're just amazed at the lack of coverage, or outright cover up.

No rational person could dismiss this as just a local story.

Mark Davis, a local and national talk show host at WBAP in Fort Worth, Texas, interviewed Jihad Joey's father this morning.

I was working so I didn't hear but bits and pieces of the interview.

What I did hear was a small blurb where he was praising his son and denying any involvement with Muslim terrorists.

He did mention that he sought out and seeked praise all through his life. Looking for kind comments from his teachers, etc, about what a good kid he was, what a great job he was doing.

It sounded to me that this kid was seeking for praise for anything he did, looking for a place to belong, and a great canidate for being used.

It appears to me that the Jihadists found a person that they could and did use.

When he was denied admission three times to the stadium with his back path of death he may well have sat on that bench and did himself in rather than fail on his mission and not receive the praise he so craved.

I can think of no other reason rather than an accident, a timer that he couldn't control, or a preset time for a cell phone to detonate the bomb.

The fact that he had additional explosives in his apartment would make me think that he planned on living on to do this again.

I don't know if you get Mark Davis' national show or not but you can get him at www.wbap.com, on streaming audio, his show comes on at 9 AM central.

If any other FReepers heard all of the interview, please chime in.

Owl,

This thread needs some screen time here on FR. I don't know how to ask the Moderator to do this? Do you, can you?
