Yes, I realize you said it was an urban legend. I was merely giving some ammunition to anyone who is told this story. I assumed the wife of the 'devout Muslim' terrorist, was also Muslim. Men like those, are going to be similar to Taliban men, and rule their wives with an iron fist, so to speak. It was just my opinion. Don't take offense. I meant none.
You are right, not all Muslims are alike. The woman I mentioned was from Turkey. But, I live in a community where there are many Muslims, and what Sabia told me is borne out by the behaviour of the women I see and talk to, in the stores (most are from Pakistan and Somalia.......I ask them). They avert their eyes when a man talks to them, but talk quite freely to me.
I suspect, if this story is true and I have NO reason to believe it is, that the terrorist read the magazines and book and became so convinced about the hopelessness of the world, it pushed him over the edge. He also may have seen the personality similarities between Jehovah and an angry Allah and decided this was a message for him to act. Frankly, even as a young lad at assemblies I used to have serious doubts about the veracity of most of the field service experiences given.
But alas, all of my thoughts are subject to change because my mother is sending me the latest copy of Awake with the 9/11 articles in it. Stay tuned for my rehabilitation to the "truth".

If you slowly re-read the "tale", you will see that the female at the door claimed to be the terrorist's sister, not wife.
Even if considering the "tale" to be true, most people in reading the story would have automatically assumed that this female was lying about her sibling relationship with the terrorist given that this was evidently a terrorist safehouse.
