Oregon Bomb Suspect Mohamed Osman Mohamud

Another shocking story for all Muslims out there, though I am surprised, and also relieved that this story hasn't been given a lot of attention. A 19 year old Muslim boy namely Mohamed Osman Mohamud was arrested as he was involved in planting a bomb at the tree lightening ceremony at downtown Portland. What he didn't know was that the bomb was fake and his companion in this mission was an undercover CIA agent, who wanted to catch him in action.
The validity of this story will always remain a mystery because there are some bits that seem exaggerated.Apparently this boy wanted to engage in jihad since 15 but couldn't because of his parents, then he finally got touch with someone in Pakistan who could help him become a "jihadi". If this is 100 percent accurate then this boy seems a crazy sociopath, mostly because of his thrill to kill Americans and enjoy the fireworks. Clearly he is suffering from some psychological illness that has killed his humanity. It is even more troubling to know that the terrorists trying to help him are all in Pakistan, which makes you wonder is it true or is it just a sham to make sure that the terrorists operation in Pakistan keep on running and we all believe that there are terrorists functioning in Pakistan? Somehow the actions of this boy and how his sayings seem exaggerated to me. A person who is involved with  terrorist groups, surely would be very careful and wouldn't respond to anyone without any authenticity, but the boy easily believer the CIA agent and didn't check his identity with his Pakistani terrorist friends. Either he was really dumb and delusional or this is all a sham to support the existing propaganda against Muslims?
