I'm going to wait for more info but I am wondering to what extent Abdo's actions were religiously motivated. It sounds like he was very bitter at the army regarding the child p*rnography charges.
"Islam is a peaceful religion, that's why I attempted to explode my fellow soldiers." Sorry, not buying it. Don't watch child p*rnography, won't get in trouble.
He doesn't think Islam allows him to deploy to Afghanistan, but he does think it allows him to watch child p*rn?
Seriously. Lunatics like him try to justify a reason for their actions by putting it on Islam when they are are not happy with the situation they are in and have witnessed others use Islam as a reason to vent their frustrations. Incidents like these are one of the last things Muslims in America want to hear. Further deteriorates the image of Muslims.
