"Self-Radicalized" Duo ("Reverts" or Fellow Travelers?) Charged With Terrorism Plot in B.C.

Don't worry, though. Officials are certain the two have no "international" ties:

Two B.C. residents have been charged in an al-Qaeda-inspired Canada Day terror plot that involved pressure cooker bombs similar to the ones used in the Boston Marathon bombings. 

Amanda Marie Korody, 30, and John Stewart Nuttall, 39, both of Surrey, B.C., have each been charged with conspiracy to commit an indictable offence, knowingly facilitating a terrorist activity and possession of an explosive substance. 

They were arrested Monday and are accused of building explosive devices with the "purpose of causing death or serious bodily injuries," which were placed outside the B.C. legislature in Victoria on Canada Day. 

Police said Korody and Nuttall, both Canadian citizens, were "inspired by al-Qaeda ideology" but added the incident has no international links. 

At the press conference, police said the pair were self-radicalized and had discussed a wide variety of targets and techniques...

Isn't the contention that they were "self-radicalized" more, not less, alarming than the idea that they were radicalized at some mosque? The former means that you don't even have to leave the comfort of home to get "inspired" by Islamic supremacism. All you have to do is turn on your computer, find the appropriate site, and you're off to the A-Q races.
