    What do you imagine Hassan's first thoughts were when he woke up?

    Speculation here, but do you think he was disappointed that he didn't get the 72 virgins?

    Heh. I think that's actually a misread of the ayah, but amusing nonetheless.

    i feel like he's lucky they didn't just say he's dead, and take him to syria like the olden days and torture him day in and out

    What were the first words out of his mouth? My bet: "What no virgins?"

    They were virgins. They were also sheep.

    Pays to read the fine print.

    But we don't have to choose mutually exclusive alternatives:

    he was mentally unstable and vulnerable to religious delusions of sacrifice, buying into a meme of cosmic religious identity at war with the devil across nations and eras,

    and he was also trapped, newly or recently become aware of his status as a lured and coerced participant in a great evil, caught in a net of his own sworn loyalties with people depending on him, with no honorable way out.

    These could both be.

    He might have met them, but that claim's clearly absurd.

    Correction: his claims of "involvement", if serious involvement, are absurd.

    BTW: what news agency is this? Is this related to the WhatReallyHappened gang? Is there a more reputable news agency carrying a solid report of his purported claims?

    I understand the aledged shooter is paralyzed and has pain in his arms and hands.

    Good. I hope it spreads to his crotch and face. If it doesn't, then maybe some pain could be applied there.

    Where exactly it says in the Muslim Qu'oran that if you kill people you will have 72 virgins ?. I asked a Muslim centre here and I was told there is no such thing as the whole story is a mere propaganda .

    He may have been opposed to the war, but there is no excuse for what he did.

    He could have refused to go. He could have resigned from his commission. Instead he chose to gun down innocent people. Many of the people who were there had never been to Iraq or Afghanistan. They were unarmed. What he did is exactly what the soldiers who murder unarmed people in combat did. He is a murderer.

    To attempt to justify cold blooded murder is beyond comprehension. I too am against the war. There are millions and millions of people against the war. There are many ways to protest against the war. Cold blooded murder is not one of them.
