Sunni Muslim?

Why is Kochiyama listed as a Muslim? The article does not say this, and a Maoist would tend to be atheistic. Supporting Osama is not automatically the same as being Muslim. IAmNitpicking (talk) 14:34, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you're going to nitpick, please read the article. NPalgan2 (talk) 17:44, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notice that I didn't actually change anything. I missed the paragraph about her secretly converting, and it still seems out-of-place, but then her life as a whole seems discordant.

Died in two places?

Normally people die in one place. The info box lists she died in Berkeley, CA, and the text says she died in Oakland, CA. I believe that she died in Berkeley, CA.
