Never go full Dependa...

...Think about the draw and loyalty they can invoke (FBI Chick as exhibit 1)...

HUMINT is a messy business and sometimes blows up in your face, you're dealing with people after all. Without knowing the full extent of this story I would reserve judgement on just how bad the FBI got this.

As for draw and loyalty, the grass is always greener for some from communism to fascism to radical Islamic terrorism.

Not even close Flash. Your thinking with a western rational mind. I'll say it again.........stay frosty.

I guess I can understand how someone from Detroit could fall into this trap. I mean, how much worse could Raqqa really be??

Prob also something to be said here for FBI internal security reviews and oversight..

Although she's a fool, once she got on a flight, it didn't last long. I'm kinda impressed they kept a lid on it for two years. They knew right away, arrested her on re-entry to the States, prosecuted immediately, and sealed it.

Not entirely sure what you are getting at, folks who betray their country usually aren't all that rational no matter the reason.

Maybe she was just a big fan of German rap and when he said "come live with me and my crew" she thought he meant something else. Because who hasn't fallen prey to the siren song of German rap stars?

Or maybe IS is smarter than the US service members and he sent her packing when she ran up the star card and was asking for power of attorney and when he was deploying again.

She obviously found out.

Very insightful. But you actually hit the nail on the head earlier, islamic terrorists don't think like us. Our entire culture is insulting to them, and vice-versa. What seems like a "good deal" to us might be anathema to them- and definitely vice-versa.
