His father was a member of Al-Queda, I bet it doesnt say that in the article. Im sure the rest of his family was a bunch of nutjobs too. Like father, like son.

He's also not really a kid. He was 16 when he was captured, which is pretty close to adult, and now hes 21. Considering his actions, its hard to call him a kid.
