maybe the cause and effect is the difference between watching a movie with shooting and knowing that the people are still alive cf living in a war zone and understanding death fully.

but did she know about his grindr account?

especially if he framed it in words that the actions were “good”, “defending islam” (important with all the islamophobia) “drawing attention to the plight of moslems in Iraq and Syria”

if she did have learning disability then he would be aware of how to manage her and that is just the thing he could have said. Curious though about the sms between them. Where is she now anyway?

no, from what I have read he thought what he was going to do was good.

where did we get the information that she pleaded with him? She seems to have gone off the radar. Is she still being held or have the authorities realised that she has trouble with cause and effect and let her go? So many questions.
