First, that seemingly poor people—with no visible means of support—can zip around the world with ease, someone obviously paying for these excursions. Second, that the world of jihad has wide borders. In Ghezali’s case his recruitment, indoctrination, and training encompassed Sweden, Britain, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and possibly Portugal. Indeed, Ghezali was European-born, still another in the growing list of revolutionary Islamist terrorists who is the product of such an environment. Third, that terrorism is not being carried out by desperate, repressed people but relatively coddled ones. Twice—or three times if one includes his detention in Pakistan—Ghezali was let go due to political pressure and misplaced mercy in his favor. Unless they choose to blow themselves up, terrorists seem to be able to live on the kindness of their enemies. One man’s terrorist is another man’s–or more likely Western governments’ poor misunderstood victim. yep.........the simple formula for disaster......take one willing nut job by whatever source.........combine with a wealthy world wide terrorist organization.........and turn him loose on any Western government which refuses to face reality until it literally blows up in their face.
