Sounds terrorist to me! He may not have been part of a network, but one of the many problems with Islam is that it sort of "licenses" free-lance terrorism.
BTW, if you all remember the "suicide" at the OU game a few months ago, it appears from an article posted here yesterday that investigators have quietly announced that they believed the student had not intended to commit suicide, but was planning to set the knapsack-bomb off somewhere else, possibly in the stadium, but he got careless handling it. They also released his driver's license picture: you got it, wearing the long Muslim Johnny Taliban-style beard. And of course there is the fact that he was known to be alienated from his family and frequent the local mosque...
But we are seriously in denial. Or at any rate, the authorities are in denial. I suppose they hope that if they don't admit that these attacks are Muslim terrorist attacks, whether or not part of a terrorist network, the problem will just go away quietly. Fat chance.
You are exactly on track. It is a licenses free-lance as you say. One Muh. can watch TV, read the paper and reflect back on his Mosque visits, and you have a one man do it yourself sleeper cell.
Down the road soon.....
