• I am with Greg Gutfeld I dont care about his motives nor reasons. I want him to state who was behind this in full. Then execute after a fair trial. Done with him.

• I have already been reading about how he may have had a hero worship thing about his older brother. Daddy lives in Russia, uncle kicks them out as their views got more radical, and big brother will take care of everything. That kind of bullshit.

  It came out yesterday that he may have run over his brother when he ran so I expect the next headline we see on the Lame Stream Media to say we should feel sorry for him because he tried to break big brothers hold over him. More bullshit. He is a 19 year old man, more than old enough to think for himself.

  • I ubderstad you position, but neurologically, he really ISN'T able to think for himself. The part of the brain that judges consequences, that can look to the future and see outcomes, and contro impulsive behavior is not developed until the mid 20"S. One of the issues I have about 18 year old being told they are adults. No, they are not. And worse, they can't manage the above tasks well until they are much older. I do think the kid was led by the brother, but one cannot deny that he certainly understood that the bombing would cause death and injury. The whole thing seems very fishy to me.

• With that hole in his throat it would be difficult to water board him but not impossible. They should begin now.

• Well if he is writing I hope they gave him crayons, anything like a pencil or pen and he'll poke someones eye out....

• They've changed the headline already. Now the top story is:

  'I think his brother put him up to it'
  Eldest said God had a plan for him
