He was a declared Atheist, not a Muslim.
I do not think his parents were Muslim, either.
They may have been Saddam Hussein supporters. That does not necessarily make them Muslim.
He was planting these Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) inside trail cameras and leaving them on paths in rural areas... Some were designed so they would explode when someone placed batteries inside; others were booby trapped with a trip wire leading to the camera... on that trip back to Harlan County where police were hoping he would reveal the locations of any unexploded traps, he tried to grab an officers weapon in an attempt to escape and was martyred in August.
He may not be a "muslim" but he sure as hell acted like he was.

I DO NOT CARE TO WASTE MY TIME TRYING TO DETERMINE IF A BOMBER IS MUSLIM OR NOT... IT’S POINTLESS AS ISLAM NOT ONLY ALLOWS BUT ENCOURAGES THEIR ADHERENTS TO LIE WHENEVER IT CAN GAIN THEM AN ADVANTAGE. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ... it’s a duck ... even if it calls itself a goose.
H-e-e-e-e-e-y, *Great* press for the atheists.
"We'll show them that other people besides Muslims can go around planting explosives to kill inn-- oh wait."
Unless the "atheist" part was Taqqiyah.
Really?
