"He knew that excesses are being done to Muslims. Incidents like desecration of the Koran have always been in his mind," Mr Saleem said, referring to US guards at Guantanamo allegedly throwing a copy of Islam's holy book in a toilet.

Somehow they will blame this on Karl Rove.
Good job Newsweek.
Newsweek lied. People died. AGAIN!
The key sentence in this article is "He was a good Muslim ... he also wished to take part in jihad and lay down his life." Good Muslim = Jihadi (terrorist)
Excesses? Ok name a race or religion that is not having "Excesses" being done to them.
I contend that when you look at every race, religion, nationality you will find that they have excesses placed on them.
Tax the rich give to the poor is an excess. You know some poor people are poor out of bad luck or bad situation. I would say most are poor due to their past and current choices.
I mostly live paycheck to paycheck with a little going into savings. I make plenty of money to not have to go paycheck to paycheck. But I make poor choices in my spending habits. Or choices that dont end up like I expect them too. Or choices that take way to long to pay off like I expect them to.
A choice of poor families paying for satellite or cable TV is a poor choice for a poor person. A poor family eating at McDonalds is a poor choice. You may get out of there for $20 for a family of 4. The latest shoes, jeans, shirts are poor choices for poor people. Throwing away clothes becasue they have holes in them is a poor chioce for poor people. How about buying a needle and some thread?
But Johnny can't go to school with clothes that look mended, he will look like he is poor. He is poor! And will remain POOR unless you show him how to make un-poor decisions. If you think he will feel bad in school or have hurt feelings, these feelings of hurt will be nothing compared to the feelings of not being able to provide for his family.
Or maybe not. Maybe he will be a deadbeat Dad and never care to see his 10 kids by different (poor)mothers. And so the cycle continues.
Sorry for the rant. But TV, new clothes, new(er) cars are not god given rights and are not needed to bring up children successsfully. What is needed is a home, no matter how poor. A home with a Mom and Dad.
A suicidal nutcase will always find another excuse to do his awful deed.
It's for the moslem children.
