Wife Kept in the Dark Re 'Normal' Hubby's Extremism

The wife of the Swedish suicide bomber says she had no idea about her husband's radical bent because he was able to keep it well-hidden:

Mona Thwany, 28, said her husband Taimour Abdulwahab appeared to be a "normal Muslim" who "never revealed his secret side" to her.
The 29-year-old sports therapist blew up himself and his car in a busy Stockholm street on December 11. Two passers-by were injured.

Thwany and Abdulwahab met at university in Luton, north of London, had been married for six years and lived in the factory town with their children aged six years, four years and two months.
In his suicide message, he apologised to his family for keeping his plot secret for four years.

"Taimour was a normal person, a normal Muslim. There were no alarm bells," she told News of the World, Britain's biggest-selling newspaper.

"He never revealed his secret side to me. Maybe it's a cultural thing because as a Muslim wife I was not expected to pry into his life."

A cultural thing--yeah, that must be the reason.
