This isn't over. We really need to know what happened to turn these two young men into terrorists. But from the sound of his father, mother and aunt, they are highly suspicious, paranoid and fodder for extremist movements. No doubt it's largely beliefs grown from their home country and its many troubles and strifes. But it's pretty disturbing that there are people living here that feel this way about America, the American justice system and seem so hostile to it. I don't understand but hopefully some study of what went wrong can give us some skills and methods for intervening before more young people like these brothers are created and waiting with bombs at a large celebration of Americans engaging in things we love like sporting events, flying to a vacation destination or even just going to work via mass transit.
In spite of it all, America will prevail and grow stronger and we'll love her more. I'm so proud of us.
