In Bangladesh, he had no known Jihadist ties. He was a shy unassuming student. Why FBI vigilantes picked him as an easy mark they, or others connected to them, will have to explain. 

Nafis may have been in the wrong place at the wrong time. Clearly, he was in the wrong country for any reason. He stood out prominently and was vulnerable. He may end up imprisoned for life.

Others like him got many years behind bars. Every high-profile Muslim terror plot was fake. Innocence each time didn't help them. One preposterous scheme after another didn't matter. Once charged, convictions are virtually automatic. 

America's war on terror demands lots of prisoners. Inciting fear requires schemes too extreme to forget. Plausibility doesn't enter the public mind. 

Getting bad guys off city streets alone matters. Guilt by accusation works as planned. Police state America has it down to a science. Growing numbers of Muslims behind bars proves there's no place to hide.
