It makes me wonder what this boys' parents, relatives and teachers taught him to hate his country so much. When I grew up it was stories of WWII and the awesome price that was paid to keep our country free. What are the children over the past seveal decades or two been taught or told to instill this kind of hatred? Sickening!!

Blame parents. It is not the teacher's job to install values or manners in children. Granted some do try.

Hopefully not that the Germans or Japs were a threat to our freedom. That is an exageration. An attack does not threaten ones freedom. If a man were to strike me at a bar because he thought I looked at him the wrong way I would not say he was trying to take away my freedom. I'd just say he was assaulting me.

And there is no way either country would have been able to take over the US. The real threat to freedom was as usual our own government. An examination of government after WWI and II shows that we we lost considerable freedom as a result of those wars. So who won? Not us, but Washington. We are not DC.

Will they be charged with harboring a terrorist?

He was probably taught diversity, self esteem, and environmentalism.

You asked what the children have been taught in schools--it's like teaching him to strengthen something referring to: "self-esteem."

The kid steals a plane, (self-esteem) and slams it into a building, (still his "s-e").

See the point?
