Since 2010, Ergun has radically altered his testimony from his post-9/11 version. He now admits to having been born in Sweden, but still intimates that he was a Islamist. One must wonder how much of an Islamist a pre-9/11 Turkish-Swedish child can be, being raised Ohio and attending American public schools.
