Unique Physical Trait Led Unibrow Bomber To Bomb Times Square

Faisal Shahzad: and Army of One Brow

Authorities are now saying that it wasn't radical Islam, foreclosure, or connections to Taliban that led Faisal Shahzad to place a car bomb in Times Square. It was a physical deformity.

Shahzad was constantly called the Unibrow Bomber as a child and teen, due to his one eyebrow. The name has stuck.

"Of course he was picked on as a teen at the Madrassa and, then, later at the Happy Jihadi terrorist training camp in Pakistan," said Muhammed Jahidi, a friend. "We used to say, 'how are you going to kill innocent American women and children with that big caterpillar on your forehead?' and he used to say 'I will just blow them up.'"

Jahidi laughed, "He dealt with his pain the best he could."

This teasing can lead to violent behavior, according to Melanie Rebarr, a child psychologist and author of the book, Quit Picking on Adolf, How teasing hurts our terrorists.

"Everyone wants to know who to blame for the Times Square bombing," said Rebarr. "The answer is we are all responsible for it. Everyone but the guy who did it. And President Obama, who is faultless."

Rebarr was called Rebarr-tard in school, she added.
