She had “expressed an intention to commit terror acts,” but “had no concrete plan,” and therefore she walks free. Prosecutors, however, “claim the 24-year-old had received orders to blow herself up at a military target in Russia.” If she did, she is free to pursue such plans now, as she intended to do before. How difficult is it to develop a “concrete plan” to do such a thing?
“Lithuania Woman Acquitted of Suicide Bombing Plot,” from ABC News, April 4 (thanks to Twostellas):
An appeals court has acquitted a Lithuanian woman who was convicted by a lower court of plotting a suicide bombing against an undetermined Russian military target.
Egle Kusaite was arrested in 2009 on suspicion of links to radical Islamist groups, including Chechen militants, and sentenced to 10 months in prison in 2013 for engaging in terrorist activities.
The appeals court overturned her conviction Friday, saying that even though Kusaite had expressed an intention to commit terror acts, she had no concrete plan.
Prosecutors claim the 24-year-old had received orders to blow herself up at a military target in Russia.

So now even in the civilized world making Jihad mass murder threats is protected free speech. Back in the day, and today, in the scriptures, the Holy Prophet made a lot of mass murder threats, and made good on them.
I wonder if the “leaders” in Lithuania will permit Noah to be shown there.

The intent to commit murder, but without having a concrete plan to do so is not considered worthy of criminal conviction in the court of law … at least, that is the interpretation in a modern EU liberated lithuania … for a very special, unique and highly protected-endangered ideology.

Typical Muslim..nothing special

“Prosecutors claim the 24-year-old had received orders to blow herself up”
Islam’s suicidal ‘I am not worthy syndrome’
Ironic, since Islam itself is not worthy.

Maybe something was lost in transtlation and she was only sent to give someone a blow job and then scream “Allahu Akhbar”?

“….the 24-year-old had received orders to blow herself up …”
Is that the Islamic version of communion???

Lithuania?
A Muslima was being trained to commit jihad…in Lithuania?
Some statistics on Lithuania.
A Baltic state.
Just 3 million people.
Christian (mostly Catholic [= 1.4 million people], some Orthodox and Protestant) – 85 percent. (Lithuanian Christians underwent, and survived, some pretty severe persecution while their country was under the heel of the USSR).
Nonreligious – 14 percent.
Jewish – 0.16 percent.
Muslims – 0.14 percent, = about 4500 people.
That’s the breakdown as given by my (2010 edition) Christian sourcebook, ‘Operation World’, a guide to prayer and intercession for the nations.
Now, let’s compare the stats in the CIA factbook.
They are a lot muddier. But what’s clear is that Lithuania is more than 80 percent “Christian”; ‘no religion’ is given as 6 percent, and ‘unspecified’ as 10 percent; and Muslims, Jews, Greek Catholics [why are they not grouped with the Christians?] and “Karaites”, are lumped together as “other”, adding up to less than 1 percent of the population.
Either way, Lithuania – lucky for them! – has as yet a relatively small percentage of mohammedan mobsters.
And yet, with so few Mohammedans, there are *still* people volunteering for Jihad.
Got Muslims? – got Jihad.
The Lithuanians would be wise to put a complete stop to any immigration of Muslims into their country, right now; and to evict all those already present, while the ummah colony is still small.
