Does he have an accent?

CNN had an article this morning about a US-born suspected jihadist. They had a short audio clip from him.

Do you detect an accent in that video? The guy was born in the US (New Mexico) and lived here for the first 21 years of his life. But it sounds like he still has a trace of some foreign accent. Or is it just me?

Yes, he has an american accent with a trace of something else, but he's quite obviously a nutcase.

Turkish-like accent traces detected.
