    It landed and everyone except 4 has gone out. There is only one hijacker and he did it to ask for political asylum and wants to speak with his exwife that is now at the airport. It's not an islamic terrorist because he already let christian bishops to get out of the plane along with almost everyone.

    Oh my. It looks bad. It looks crazy, but I reckon he did what most negotiators would try to do themselves , make friends and connect with the terrorist so you can talk him down.

    Looks like he was mentally unstable. This doesn't look like it was the work of a terrorist organization, and if it was Innes would probably have been brutally murdered.

    We have a man here who is mentally disturbed but not a terrorist according to the media.

    A muslim with a bomb strapped to his chest.

    Social justice warriors quiet, annoyed at the thought of not getting a good night's sleep feeling victimized.

    As long as moderates strike down any muslim who speaks up about outdated narratives in community, the recipe for endless violence continues, with or without scapegoats like the West.
