“Sean Andrew Duncan, a 21-year-old Muslim convert…voiced support for the Islamic State and was researching how to plan and commit a terrorist attack….There were hundreds of sexually explicit images of pre-pubescent children, including infants, on the phone…Duncan is married to Zakiya Sadeq, a 36-year-old doctor he met through religious circles. But he also courted an unnamed woman to be his second wife…”

Where did Sean Andrew Duncan get the idea to do all these things? Could these ideas have had anything to do with his new, peaceful religion? Could it be from Islam that he got the idea that murdering non-Muslims was a righteous act, and that pre-pubescent children could be objects of erotic interest, and that polygamy was moral and worth pursuing? Or would thinking such things be “Islamophobic”?
