#2 Most of the situations like this that I have read about is some dumb schmuck, pissed off at something and wants a little revenge but it too stupid to do it well.
My bet is this dolt was mad at the gas company/town for raising rates/unemployment and wanted to send a message but blown himself up in the process.

#3 If it didn't kill him, then I put my money on "incompetent".
An Islamist would have carried it to the mall. This is mere sabotage...it's what WE would do, but we're not Islamists so the thought process is different.

#11 FYI MEMRI.ORG > HIZB AL-TAHRIR AMERICA: SET TO HOLD JUNE 17 CONFERENCE IN ILLINOIS, ADVOCATES JIHAD, SAYS IRAN + SAUDI ARABIA ARE "MODERN, NON-EXPANSIONIST NATION-STATES", + HAVE THUS ABANDONED "THE DEFINITIVE [ISLAMIC] OBJECTIVE OF JIHAD" AS STIPULATED IN THE KORAN.
IIUC, by inference an "Islamic/Islamist America" under the auspice of the Hizb al-Tahrir
would be PRO-EXPANSIONIST VEE NON-ISLAMIC NATIONS???
ARTIC = HIZB AL-TAHRIR BANGLADESH, PAKISTAN have called for Military-led coups in their home countries.
versus
* TOPIX > AMERICA'S MARXIST [Marxist-Communist] PICNIC: WHY GOVERNMENT NO LONGER WORRIES ABOUT COMMUNISTS.
Cold War = POTUS Reagan-era views, e.g. subjective profiling for real-or-potential Commie allegiances; versus the alleged Commie-born-n-raised "Obamunist" in the White House [dedicated Marxist-Commie family background + upbringing, education, influences]. COMMIES HAVE CHANGED THEIR DESCRIPTIVE LABELS, BUT NOT THEIR IDEOLOGY.
Lest we fergit, 1990's CLINTONISM > RIGHTISM IS THE NEW LEFTISM, GOP-RIGHT IS THE NEW DEMOLEFT, FASCISM IS THE NEW COMMUNISM.
