Faisal Shahzad is the Pakistani-born U.S. citizen who confessed to trying to blow up NYC's Times Square last week. And CBS thinks that his motives are mysterious.
As I said to Dr. Melissa, evil is a mystery to the stupid. However, a deeper idiocy is indicated in that headline.
CBS types can't believe that Americans are still hated after we've gotten rid of the warmonger, George W. Bush and elected Barack Obama, peacemaker and might-be-Muslim (yes, I've changed my mind).
These sorts don't understand evil. Heck, many of them don't even think evil exists, or worse: that the value judgment of evil depends on the identity of the judge, which, of course, is the essence of identity politics.
BTW, does it seem to you that, since 9/11, jihadis in America can't handle anything more technically complicated that an M-16? Keep praying.
They are unable to get outside of their own propaganda. If they actually face facts, their entire world view crumbles.

The failure to identify evil is a major factor on the left.
