They promised him virgins, so he went and blew up the loo:
UK: Would-be jihad murderer’s mother says recruiters promised him Paradise, virgins
“They were telling him he would be in paradise with 44 virgins, and he believed it.” Why wouldn’t he have believed it? The Qur’an doesn’t specify a number, but does several times promise that the blessed in Paradise will enjoy the houris — “companions pure, most beautiful of eye” (44:54; see also 52:20, 55:72). And it promises Paradise to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah (9:111). So all Mohammad Abdulaziz Rashid Saeed-Alim had to do to get “radicalized” in this way was read the Qur’an.

British MPs demand passports be revoked from UK jihadis in Syria
The amazing aspect about this story is that it is a story at all, so long after it has been known that numerous Muslims from Britain have gone to Syria to wage jihad. The British government, in its abject desire to capitulate to and appease Islamic supremacists, bans counter-jihad spokesmen such as Pamela Geller and me from the country, but is still dithering about what to do about jihad terrorists casually boarding flights in Damascus and returning home to wage more jihad. Britain is indeed suicidal, and its death watch has begun.
“​Alarmed British MPs demand passports be revoked from UK fighters in Syria,” RT, May 10, 2014 (thanks to Robert Spencer):
One in nine fighters returning from abroad have taken part in a terror plot, according to a UK parliamentary report, while the number of UK citizens travelling to fight in foreign conflicts reached “alarming levels unlike anything seen in recent years.”
