#2 I imagine he felt he had made his points and gotten his publicity.
detnews.com has the money quote: "Participation in jihad against the United States is considered among the most virtuous of deeds in Islam and is highly encouraged in the Quran," Abdulmutallab told the judge, reading from a statement.

#3 I wonder what made him change his mind?

I dunno. Maybe he gets the guilts everytime he scratches his torched up scrotum...
He'll have plenty of time to do that at ADX Florence. It'll probably be the most constructive thing he does.

#4 I don't know if he is bad enough for Florence. They have rather high standards for their alumni.

Whereas, he is just a "cornfield Nubian", as it were.

#6 The Trotsky technique is even more effective and save millions of dollars in incarceration costs.

#8 Somebody got to him.
Instead of looking/acting like a stupid muslim rube in a long drawn out media circus and reinforcing that image for all of the others, he 'chose' to go down as a martyr for a noble cause. More prison points I think.
