So I’ll just pause to note here that this is yet another case of absimilation. Here yet again is the relevant passage from We Are Doomed, the one book you need to explain the modern world. Chapter 10, edited quote:
The English word “assimilation” derives from the Latin prefix ad-, which indicates a moving towards something, and the same language’s verb simulare, “to cause a person or thing to resemble another.” You can make a precisely opposite word using the prefix ab-, which marks a moving away from something. Many immigrants of course assimilate to American society … Many others, however, especially in the second and following generations, absimilate.

It wasn’t just him, either.
His younger brother Hashim, 20 years old, and so presumably also born in England, seems to have been an accomplice to the bombing.
He was arrested by authorities in Libya on Tuesday.
There’s also a slightly older brother, 23-year-old Ismail, arrested by British police in Manchester, also on Tuesday..."
