I wonder what his motive was. So far, I have no clue, despite reading many articles. The only thing I’m sure of is that Islam is a religion of peace and that, like the other 31,000 Muslim terrorist attacks since 9/11/2001, Islam had nothing to do with this attack either.

I’ll bet it surprised the mule.

If this is widely known, it might cut back on the number of people willing to participate as mules if they know they might suddenly be “volunteered” as a suicide bomber.

“The public can rest assured that we were observing the jihadi right up until the time he detonated the bomb.” /s

Wasn’t it reported not long ago that there were FIVE HUNDRED jihadis back from the ME? Bet they all are bomb trained and waiting for orders.

Known, the police can do nothing till something happens. It is like looking at a human time bomb set to go off “who knows when” and you cannot do anything about it.

Disagree. The world is populated with zealots that rush to wear such garments of destruction.

Agree in part. There are many who volunteer to be suicide bombers. But there are many more who are forced into it by threats or who do so unwittingly. This mule may have not have intended to end his life. He may have thought he was just moving the explosives into position or handing them off to someone else. Not saying that’s the case, just a possibility.

Agree, also in part. I do not believe anyone was an unwitting partner, unless they were too young or mentally incompetent to understand. Otherwise, agree 100% on the coercion part. My point was that the people who wish to do suicidally violent harm to innocents are legion.
