That he was brainwashed by his older brother, and that we should in some way feel bad for this evil little prick. CNN's lead is "This person just took his brain" and "Uncle: My nephew was brainwashed." I don't care what influence his older brother, or Allah, or whoever else may have had on him. He still walked into a crowd of innocent men, women, and children and knowingly dropped a bomb by their feet. I hate to bring politics into it, but it's essentially the liberal media pimping this shit out. Disgusts me to no end.
It is disgusting and sad, but it was inevitable. If you do something, no matter how heinous, out of anti-American sentiment, you will always garner sympathizers from the lunatic fringe.
