Some of the media outlets have commented on Shahzad's foreclosed home and his inability to make mortgage payments.  Could it be he didn't bother paying his mortgage because he was too engrossed in learning how to blow people up?

Mark also points out that not every terrorist is a card-carrying member of Al Qaeda:
