The new face of Islamic terrorism is quite a departure from the spacy half-smile of Osama bin Laden and the dead-eyed glare of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi; ever since the latest FBI wanted poster came out, it’s a pudgy, long-haired American kid who appears to be locked in a desperate, losing struggle to grow a beard: Adam Yahiye Gadahn, an American convert to Islam.
Just as they did in the cases of Gadahn’s fellow converts to Islamic radicalism (John Walker Lindh, the “American Taliban,” British shoe bomber Richard Reid, and others), Western analysts have rushed to ascribe Gadahn’s involvement with al-Qaeda as a product of his disaffection and alienation, cannily capitalized upon by al-Qaeda operatives to make the boy feel important and give him a place in the world.
Gadahn obligingly supplied the talking heads with plenty of ammunition for this sort of thing in an account of his conversion, apparently self-penned, that is posted on the website of the USC Muslim Students Association. His father was a Muslim, although evidently not a particularly active one, and his mother a Christian. Neither, by his account at least, seems to have made much effort to raise him in either faith, and he says he had some friction with them. For reasons unexplained at one point he tells us that he moved in with his grandparents. “I had become obsessed with demonic Heavy Metal music,” he says, to the extent that he “eschewed personal cleanliness and let my room reach an unbelievable state of disarray."[1] Around that time he discovered Islam by cruising the Internet.

ALLAHU AKBAR = HEIL HITLER
Shut down the border...the Kalifornia border with the US.
Thus proving that web porn is far and away NOT the most disgusting thing to be found "out there."
Islame, in any form, is infinitely worse.
Please don't tell me that is the only way to get a kid to clean up his room.
I guarantee you that you'll find them all over the Indymedias. Likely the DUmpster as well.
Did he eat all his veggies too! And do his homework on time?
There was also the young man who stole the small plane and flew it into the Florida high-rise two years ago -- July 4th. He was an extemporizing irregular to Al Queda.
Are you kidding me? Now he has an excuse to NEVER clean up his room (or bathe or brush his teeth or use toilet paper).
If you play those "heavy metal" songs backwards you hear Allah akbar...
"What is good in life?" To destroy the jihadists, to drive their leftist enablers before you, and to hear the lamentations of their media!
LOL!
Discipline and appropriate guidance and interest in your children's activities are the greatest responsibilities of parenting.
We need to restrict islamic missionaries to the US.
They might be acting as intelligence couriers for al qaeda in addition to recruiting and converting westerners.
In addition to that, we need to watch the local mosques.
Most important of all, we need to get non muslim, non regional americans as translators--people who would have no loyalties to islam and people who don't see the US as an imperialist power.
bttt
True!
Now this...is the definition of a moderate muslim:
One who: "had picked up what he knew of it from cultural "habit."
The radicals? They are the true followers of the writings of the pirate/murderer, otherwise known as "The Prophet"-Mohammed.
