He didn't say anything about rejecting non-violent attempts to impose Sharia and subjugate Infidels, and of course, the clueless authorities didn't think to ask him. "Germany Shooter No Longer Believes in Jihad," from VOA News, October 5:
The Kosovo Albanian man on trial for killing two U.S. airmen at Germany's Frankfurt Airport in March says he no longer believes in jihad, or holy war.While Arid Uka still prays and considers himself a Muslim, he said Wednesday he was duped by extremist propaganda and no longer believes his religion permits violence, except in self-defense. He added that shooting the airmen was not permitted by his religion.
Uka is on trial in Frankfurt for two counts of murder. He is also facing three counts of attempted murder after wounding two other airmen and firing at a third, who survived when Uka's gun jammed.
Uka, 21, confessed to the attacks at the opening of his trial, saying he was motivated by Islamist websites calling for jihad against American military forces. The day before his attack Uka watched a website video he believed showed U.S. soldiers raiding a home in Afghanistan and raping an Afghan girl. The video was actually a scene from an American anti-war movie Redacted that was taken out of context.
U.S. federal prosecutors say Uka chanted "God is great" in Arabic while he was shooting....

Muslims always shout 'Allah Akhbar' (not 'God is Great', Allah is not God, in fact quite the opposite) while killing kuffars, because it's an essential part of the ritual of Islamic human sacrifice: http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2010/01/satanic-islam-allah-moloch-demands.html
Great. He should now be acquitted and freed, where he might be "duped by extremist propaganda", (he still reads the Quran), again.
The same Quran which says its OK to dupe the enemy in Jihad.
... he said Wednesday he was duped by extremist propaganda and no longer believes his religion permits violence, except in self-defense.
It was the late, great Obama bin-Laden who patiently explained that Moslems were under attack from the Infidel, especially the ones from the West. He cited the presence of U.S. armed forces in Arabia as proof of this.
*** Ishaq 368 ***
When he came out to us we cast Ashraf's head before his feet. Mohammed praised Allah that the poet had been assassinated and complimented us on the good work we had done in Allah's Cause.
The German prosecutors might want to check Arid Uka's veracity by reference of the sacralized histories of the Holy Prophet and the early Moslems.
Then again, the prosecutors might not want to check that; doing so could indirectly result in much greater trouble, and nobody wants that.
Just drop him off at any US Air Force base in Germany...
Believe a muzzie at your peril.
Germany jihad murderer says he no longer believes in violent jihad
.................................
So—just let me go, foolish Kuffar...
More:
he said Wednesday he was duped by extremist propaganda and no longer believes his religion permits violence, except in self-defense.
.................................
And what is "self-defense"? By Western standards, this is a pretty narrow category, largely consisting of immanent lethal threat—for Muslims it means anything and everything, including the very existence of German and American Infidels, who present an "obstacle" to the spread of Islam...
I have confidence in the German legal system - they will not let him go free. If they let him free, then you may find around 6 million Germans killed by SOB MoSlums (there are about 3 mil in Germany) and stating the same BS as this SOB.
He will serve a lifer -- someone told me that German prisons are not at all harsh as they ought to be..either way the MoSlums win....
Oops,sorry about that,it wasn't really his fault,a movie made him do it,bad evil western influences,really he is the victim because he was naive and confused and since he sees his error and is still a good g-d fearing,innocent fellow and they were just Americans .... maybe we should just let him go.
How we hang him,like muslims are doing to Christians ?
>"Germany jihad murderer says he no longer believes in violent jihad"
.................................
Is there any other kind of jihad besides the violent, murderous, killer jihad!!! If there is one, that's a news to me. Muslims have only followed violent jihad - meaning holy war to kill and subdue the infidels for last 1400 years and are still following it..
Takkiya, anyone ?
I think it's kind of a nothing issue.
This guy will be convicted of killing two people in cold blood. Nobody is going to mitigate his sentence because of his convenient change of mind.
He will have plenty of opportunity to preach his peaceful Islam among the many Muslims now in German prisons. Or, more likely, he will simply forget about such distinctions between violent and non-violent jihad, and join with one of the Muslim gangs already there.
"Germany jihad murderer says he no longer believes in violent jihad"
Ok so he still goes to jail which means he'll meet up with
some real jihadi aholes and get re-indoctrinated. Then after
I hope a very long time, he's worse so it's back to square one. Then the cycle continues.
Whether or not he believes this or that is not the point. He's on trial for what he did, not what he believes or doesn't believe.
No longer believing in violent jihad will bring back the soldiers he murdered in the name of Islam. If his sudden lack of belief could bring them back, maybe he'd have a point, but it won't. Period.
Lying clown!
Who cares what he says he no longer believes in? He should be hanged for the murders as a deterrence at least. Instead the taxpayers of Germany will have to pay for his upkeep in prison where he will probably be a hero among the Muslim inmates, supply him with Islamic reading material, maybe halal meals, and an imam to comfort him until he is eventually freed. If an infidel murders Muslims in a Muslim country he does not get it so good. Why is the West so stupidly soft with terrorists?
He committed murder and changing his mind about Jihad will not free him from his guilt. One should try to understand those young men who get seduced by the radical ideology of Islam and take appropriate measures to prevent other young men falling for this ideology of hate and murder.
That's the Kosovar Albanian thugs: they murder AND lie.
The unspeakable evil the United States, England and other Western democracies did unto the Serb people. The evil.

Okay, he believed in violent jihad then. He does not believe in violent jihad now. So what does that have to do with the murders he commited at the Frankfurt airport?
Violent jihad was his motive then, but would not be his motive now? The only motive that matters is his motive at the time of the murders, and unless Germany has become a sharia state (and there does seem to be some reason for concern there) jihad is not a lawful reason for taking life.
His change of mind is irrelevant in every conceivable way.
Time to move on to sentenceing. Or extradition if the US wants this killer clown.
But every time when anybody tries to suggest prosecuting ANY Kosovar Albanian for torture and murder of any SERB CIVILIAN, this is what happens to the witness, including right there, in Germany:
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/07/world/europe/death-of-war-crimes-witness-casts-cloud-on-kosovo.html?_r=1
These atrocities are so widespread, so relentless, that some times EVEN the NY Times reports on one. EVEN the NY Times who had played an evil role in the slander, scourging and crucifiction of Serbia.

Klecka, a Kosovar Albanian mini-Auschwitz for Serb civilians, complete with a crematorium, its oven clogged with charred remains of civilians, including children. This is what NATO aided and abetted.
The unspeakable evil the US, Englsnd and other Western democracies did unto the Serb people. The evil.
