they could probably recruit suicide bombers from Western nursing homes and enjoy the best of both worlds..... might be hard selling the concept of 72 virgins to the octogenarians though.....
or
by doing so, they have already become Americans and not even know they have been assimilated....
The 72 virgins may well be octogenarian nuns from various convents. Difficult to find the requisite inventory elsewhere.

I thought you were supposed to go to college to get some brains....
I don't recall my brain specimen being treated with respect at college...... or even at the OTNOT forum for that matter.
A brain is a terrible thing to waste.... or misplace.
This sounds like a good case for a philosophy professor (not the same as a professor of philosophy) to solve.
About 100 brains missing from University of Texas Associated PressAssociated Press – 9 hours ago...
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — The University of Texas at Austin is missing about 100 brains — about half of the specimens the university had in a collection of brains preserved in jars of formaldehyde.
One of the missing brains is believed to have belonged to clock tower sniper Charles Whitman.
"We think somebody may have taken the brains, but we don't know at all for sure," psychology Professor Tim Schallert, co-curator of the collection, told the Austin American-Statesman (http://bit.ly/11R7vym ).
His co-curator, psychology Professor Lawrence Cormack, said, "It's entirely possible word got around among undergraduates and people started swiping them for living rooms or Halloween pranks."
The Austin State Hospital had transferred the brains to the university about 28 years ago under a "temporary possession" agreement. Schallert said his psychology lab had room for only 100 brains, so the rest were moved to the basement of the university's Animal Resources Center.
"They are no longer in the basement," Cormack said.
The university said in a statement that it will investigate "the circumstances surrounding this collection since it came here nearly 30 years ago" and that it's "committed to treating the brain specimens with respect." It says the remaining brain specimens on campus are used "as a teaching tool and carefully curated by faculty."
The university's agreement with the hospital required the school to remove any data that might identify the person from whom the brain came. However, Schallert said Whitman's brain likely was part of the collection.
"It would make sense it would be in this group. We can't find that brain," he said.
Whitman's 1966 rampage at the University of Texas killed 16 people, including his mother and wife.
The 100 remaining brains at the school have been moved to the Norman Hackerman Building, where they are being scanned with high-resolution resonance imaging equipment, Cormack said.
"These MRI images will be both useful teaching and research tools. It keeps the brains intact," he told the newspaper.
