Abu Nazir allowed Brody to get close to his son...almost as if he was grooming him and allowing Brody to develops feelings for his son, before the drones hit. Some will say Abu Nazir would have to be pretty callous to sacrifice his own son....But, in the scheme of things, I don't think that is a massive stretch. Was Isa even his son? Hmmmm.
The US drone strikes could all be a convenient cover story...Allow your captive to develop strong feelings for the boy, only to then take his love and affection away from him, turn it to hatred and vengeance once he has been converted....Abu Nazir's plan is then in place to destroy the US....Potentially with Walden as part of the plan all along. This is the guy who orchestrated the bombing that killed Isa, under the orders of Abu Nazir perhaps.”
That has often crossed my mind, EastEnder.
Nazir's relationship with his son was rather odd.
