Martinez was allegedly angry at the US military for what he considered to be a “war on Muslims”.3
According to New York Post3
On Sept. 29, Martinez posted a statement on his Facebook page, calling for violence to stop the oppression of Muslims. Later that week, he posted another message claiming he hated anyone who opposed Allah.3He also wrote on Facebook
"[T]he sword is cummin (sic) the reign of oppression is about 2 cease..."1CBSNews.com reports the following.2
A woman who identified herself as Martinez's mother but refused to give her name told The Associated Press on Thursday that she tried to persuade him not to convert to Islam.
"I'm not falling for no b.s.," he told the informant when he heard about the Oregon case. Still he wanted to go ahead with the plan.
A former girlfriend, Alisha Legrand, said she met him three or four years ago - before he became a Muslim - and described him as quiet. The two last spoke over the summer and Legrand, 20, said Martinez tried to get her to convert.
"She [his mother] wants me to be like everybody else, being in school, working," Martinez told the informant. "My wife understands. ... I told her I want to fight jihad. ... She said she doesn't want to stop me."
Martinez's Facebook page identifies his wife as Naimah Ismail-Hussain, who describes herself as a student and employee at Pine Manor College in Chestnut Hill, Mass.

Comments: Yet another Muslim convert terrorist.
This case proves once again the delusion among some Muslims that they are under attack and being persecuted, when the fact is that it is Islamists and Muslim terrorists who are killing and persecuting non-Muslims, as well as other Muslims.
So there is a need for honest information and criticism of Islam and Muslims, in order to show the truth so that they won't fall for nonsense about Muslims being victims, like Martinez here did.
Politically correct lies and cover-ups not only fail to stop the problem, but also encourages even more terror and extremism by making Muslims think they, their religion and culture are wonderful and not in need of any change.
When they are deluded by politically correct lies that they are fine and wonderful, any criticism or attempt to solve the problem is seen as an unjustified attack on Islam and Muslims, leading them to commit terrorism in what they falsely believe to be self-defense.
So political correctness and those who peddle it not only do not to save lives but are responsible for keeping Muslims in the dysfunctional state they are in, and for the resulting terrorism, deaths and sufferings from it. PC kills.
