Crocodile tears from the parents of Jihad Jamie?

Ms. Paulin-Ramirez's interest in Islam "came out of left field," said her mother, Christine Holcomb-Mott, in an interview at her home Friday, wearing a blue sweatsuit with a silver cross around her neck.
How out of left field?
Mr. Mott, a convert to Islam himself, says he went to Denver to find his stepdaughter but couldn't track her down.
This woman is married to a Muslim, but neither she nor her husband can grok where in the world their murder-plotting daughter/step-daughter ever got exposed to this worrisome religion that subducts so many of its followers into terrorism.

Their disgust at daughter Jamie sounds sincere, but their blatant dishonesty about how she could have gotten interested in Islam suggests otherwise.

The Wall Street Journal's paraphrase may not be precise, however. Holcomb-Mott would presumably clarify that she has no idea how her daughter ever got interested in murder-cult Islam, and maybe she really doesn't. It is conceivable that Mr. Mott, when he converted to Islam, did not know about the long Islamic pedigree of violent aggressive jihad. Maybe he is some kind of multiculturalist do-gooder who converted to Islam in sympathy with the idea that "Islam was hijacked too" on 9/11.

Don't scoff. That same sentiment is right now allowing a giant Mecca oriented crescent to be built on the Flight 93 crash site. After all, it would just be too horrible to reject the Crescent of Embrace memorial simply because it is in the shape of a giant Islamic crescent, not when Islam itself was amongst the victims on that terrible day. No, we must do the opposite and embrace Islam.

If this is Mott's thinking, he has hardly gone any further than the Memorial Project. But then it seems that his step daughter took one step further still and actually read the Koran, with its endless commands to slaughter the unbelievers. Thus did the unhappy misfit finally find a home for the vicious vindictiveness that the religion of her birth had kept in check.

AMAZING!

IT'S AS IF THEY WERE HIDING SOMETHING.

IT'S AN ADMISSION OF GUILT.

I WONDER IF THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THEIR DAUGHTER IN THIS PLOT, OR ARE INVOLVED IN ANY OTHERS?
