You said he "certainly looks the part of a Jihadist". What does a
Jihadist look like?

Hey Kevin, does he look like a jihadist to you yet?

He says he is a jihadist.

Ask Kevin, but if you are asking me, you have totally missed the point.
SO, all jihadists look like this guy? I asked, what does a Jihadist look
like?

You still miss the idea of metaphor don't you?
"Look" in this case is the overall impression, based on everything I
have seen and read. I understand these guys were wannabe jihadists,
compared to Bin Laden but there are still 4 dead Americans and almost
200 injured.
Before this is over they may have cost the US close to a billion
dollars for an investment of a few hundred dollars.
The media, again, rewards these killers far more than their evil deeds
deserve. We make ourselves a very attractive target for terror.
Terrorists know the US media is a force multiplier, blowing any attack
far out of proportion to what the real effect was.

While all of that about the media is true, you STILL haven't told me
what exactly does a Jihadist "look like"?

It looks like "refugees" from the Caccuss region.

It looks like young men from Arabia.

It looks like disaffected Muslims from around the world.

Gee, just about everybody, then eh?

Muslims, like christians, come in every flavor of skin color, so, as you
point out, they look "just like everybody."

I'm not sure where "Caccuss" is, though. Maybe he means "Caucasus."
That's an interesting part of the world, with dozens and dozens of
ethnic groups and many languages. The majority of the population,
though, is not muslim...it is eastern orthodox christian.
