Nonsense. The killer's name is Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, which makes him at least a second-generation Muslim. He shouted "Allahu Akbar" as he committed his crimes, which makes him a jihadist. If that isn't enough evidence to call him a Muslim and take a 95% guess at the influences on him, what will be enough for the limp apologists of Islamic jihad? -- AJ
