My thoughts on the Times Square Bomber

We'll see how off I am eventually...But I wrote this on CNN in response to the coverage of this story there and partly in response to some of the commenters calling for the death penalty for his crimes...I think there is an almost mysterious lack of mention about his wife and kids. I think they went to Pakistan in July 09 and were threatened and/or kidnapped until he agreed to do this thing. I think that's he messed up the bomb and it didn't go off. I think it's why he "planned" a "bomb" that wouldn't do much damage if it did go off. I think his wife and childrens' lives are now forfeit or worse and that's why he confessed so quickly and waived rights to an attorney etc. And I think the rednecks and xenophobes of the world need to wake up.

Strike 1, You’re Out
Raven Furbert, 12, has four relatives in the military stationed in Iraq, including her uncle. To help her remember them, she wore a patriotic red, white and blue necklace, a Christmas gift. But officials at Mont Pleasant Middle School in Schenectady, N.Y., told her the beaded necklace is contrary to the school’s dress code, which bans “gang-related” clothing. They said if she continued to wear it in any visible place, she would be suspended. When they discovered she was wearing the beads hidden — not visible — they told her to remove them. Furbert’s mother, Katie Grzywna, says the girl was previously a good student, but is now frequently targeted for detention, so she has filed a federal lawsuit against the school. “I’ll be really glad when this is all over,” Raven says. “I just want to wear them for my uncle” in Iraq. (Albany Times-Union) ...Who, if you asked him, would say he’s there to fight for our freedoms.
