Under-reported story: OU bomber last week was probably radical Islamist

I had heard this story, "Blast rattles Oklahoma game" over the weekend, but haven't heard anything since.

Instapundit linked to this picture of it all. It turns out:

- he blew up 100 yards from 84,000 football fans attending the OU-Kansas game

- he tried to buy ammonium nitrate last week, which is the same substance used in the old OK City bombing.

- he had a huge cache of weapons in his apartment.

- it looks like he used TATP to blow himself up, a favored explosive of radical Islamists such as Richard Reid.

- He may have attended the same mosque as Zacarias Moussaoui.
