Terror suspect underwent 'shocking' change after Afghanistan trip

ELIZABETH, N.J. -- A man who described himself as a childhood friend of the man wanted in connection with the New York City bombing told the Herald the suspect had made a life-changing trip to Afghanistan two years ago.
"At one point he left to go to Afghanistan, and two years ago he came back, popped up out of nowhere and he was real religious," friend Flee Jones, 27, said of suspect Ahmad Khan Rahami. "And it was shocking. I'm trying to understand what's going on. I've never seen him like this."

In addition to the blast in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood on Saturday that injured dozens, a pipe bomb exploded in a New Jersey shore town before a charity 5K race and an unexploded pressure cooker device was found blocks away from the explosion site in Chelsea. Yesterday, five explosive devices were discovered at an Elizabeth train station.
FBI agents as well as state and local police are in the eatery and the apartment upstairs, which are cordoned off by yellow crime tape. Investigators towed a black Toyota sedan away from the street in front of the restaurant this morning.
The mayor said the restaurant has been slapped by local officials in the past for staying open late, but had never been flagged for anything serious.

I'm sure he was just shocked at all the global warming and joblessness.
It certainly didn't have anything to do with Islam, because Islam is a religion of Peace and Love(tm).

I will never understand how anyone can become so beholden to any religion or cause that they lose touch with reality.
I would love to sit down and talk to one of these guys just to try to figure out if he is an idiot that was easily swayed or if he legitimately thought it through and decided to become a fanatic.

If we are not honest with the threats we face, we can blame it on pretty much any bogey man. Some are already insisting that this was caused by a certain candidate's political rhetoric.

I'm absolutely shocked. This is so unexpected.

Loretta Lynch said we need to use love, hugs, and rainbows to combat this problem, not guns and jails.

I am sick and tired of all the Islamic apologists.
The media always spins it.
It is never Islam.

This is a dangerous trend for this time in history.

Lone wolf
Worked by himself
Definitely no help
Homegrown
Not a terrorist
Doesn't have anything to do with radical Islam
Got on the wrong plane and went to Afghanistan on accident
Was an explosive device, not a bomb
Worked by himself

So he went to some kind of training camp or got radicalized by a friend or relative there....

Who would have ever thought that by visiting an area where radicalism is heavily taught to its members would result in something like this?
We got dumbasses running the country.

And people are getting bent because Trump suggested suspending travel/immigration from these hot spots?
