This is yet another instance in which authorities ascribe Islamic jihad activity to mental illness. And this case is particularly egregious: authorities in Oklahoma are taking the fanatical attachment to Islam of Jah’Keem Yisrael (formerly Alton Nolen) as an indication that he is insane. Texas neuropsychologist Antoinette McGarrahan told the judge: “He has lost touch with reality. It has gone to that extreme. He can’t think rationally because he firmly believes he is being held captive, and we are all evil and the devil.”
Now wait a minute. He is in jail, no? So he is being held captive. And his Qur’an calls unbelievers “the most vile of created beings” (98:6), so how is it evidence of insanity that he thinks his captors and their associates are “all evil and the devil”?
SMU professor Robert Hunt, “an expert on Islamic beliefs,” claimed that the beheading was not in accord with Islamic law because “the use of beheading by ISIS is in the context of perceived crimes against the Muslim community and involves trials, however unjust, and a finding of guilt. They do not involve settling personal disputes.” Hunt did not note that the Qur’an says “When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks” (47:4), without noting that one must not do this in the context of personal disputes.
Hunt also abetted the claim that the beheader is insane by noting that “Nolen would not agree to an interview in the jail. Hunt said Nolen called him a ‘white heathen’ and walked out.” Of this, Hunt said: “He appears to be living in a fantasy world.” Why? What is evidence that he is living in a fantasy world that he doesn’t want to talk to an unbeliever and refers to him as such?
Jah’Keem Yisrael “justified his actions based on his reading of the Quran and stated that he would do the same thing again to anyone who oppressed him.” And since everyone who isn’t a racist, bigoted Islamophobe knows that the Qur’an teaches nothing but peace and benevolence, this must mean that he is insane.

“Judge Rules Alton Nolen Not Competent To Enter Guilty Plea In Moore Beheading Case,” News9.com, August 17, 2016 (thanks to Bulldog):
MOORE, Oklahoma – A judge has ruled that a man, accused of beheading his coworker at Vaughan Foods in Moore, Oklahoma, is not competent to enter a guilty plea in this case.
Wednesday morning, the judge declined Alton Nolen’s plea until further evaluation. The state mental hospital in Vinita will handle his testing and treatment.
Since the beginning, Nolen has stated he wants to plead guilty and receive the death penalty for the September 2014 attack at Vaughan Foods in Moore, where he killed coworker Colleen Hufford by beheading her and tried to attack two others.

Another example for the fact that these people are totally incompatible and therefore should not be in our countries at all, to start with. The consequences their presence have for society defy description.
Jay Boo says
Agree,
Muslims are not multi-cultural.
If they are so intent on intolerance to our culture, why should we be expected to take in even a single Muslim.
Einstein says
The judge should get a head transplant

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO LIVE IN OKLAHOMA (or have contactable friend or family there) —
Please contact federal and state senators and Republican representatives, to give them the expert background of Robert Spencer. It is extensively listed in “About Robert Spencer” on the black bar at Jihad Watch’s home page top.
THEN ASK THOSE OFFICIALS YOU GET IN TOUCH WITH TO SEE IF THE JUDGE IN THIS CASE WILL ACCEPT AN AMICUS CURIAE BRIEF FROM HIS ATTORNEY.
A long shot — yes — but this would establish a crucial precedent that will be almost certainly needed again as we travel down the road of American jihad in regions where the courts know almost nothing of Islam’s true essence.
Kathy Brown, Esq. says
He will absolutely NOT accept an amicus brief because this judge-and many like him-DO NOT want to try muslims. Period. End of story.
Dhimmis like this judge want no part of a muslim-on-trial-for-jihad. Why? Because the facts which would emerge at trial-that this is not some aberration, just the normal everyday acts of your ‘good’ muslim, would bury this judge’s career.
This is also what’s at play in the Idaho rape case. This is why they do NOTHING, as long as they’re permitted to do nothing. When the [outside] pressure gets too great, tho’, then they’ll do something, as the recent [bogus] ‘apology’ of City Councilman Lanting, demonstrates.
Jay Boo says
Jah’Keem Yisrael “justified his actions based on his reading of the Quran.
But ….
Why aren’t all Muslims held unaccountable for their actions then?
Come to think of it.
e. roessing says
Come to think of it, they are not, at least not in this case, because the fad of being “politically correct” in the United States (and wherever else) is nothing but self-deception due to spiritual blindness by indwelling sin. And to the extent the judicial system in the U.S. continues in this direction, to that extent there will be no justice at all in this blinded, wicked, and corrupt system.
Jay Boo says
At his parole hearing he will be wearing a Moderate Muslim persona and debating complex points of law.
Kathy Brown, Esq. says
Oh, he won’t need to do that Jay! That’ll be handled by his ARMY of Public Defenders, lunatic progressives all, who’ll fall all over themselves at the Hearing trying to quash any mention of islam.
Whoops! I didn’t mean to write ‘islam’. How islamophobic of me! I mean, ‘the i word’.
And don’t forget: We’re bankrolling this murderer’s defense. Every red cent.
Descendantofacrusader says
Is that a zebibah or “prayer bump” – i.e. the mark of the beast – on that animal’s forehead that I see? If so, he knew exactly what he was doing. The problem is that much of the world simply refuses to believe in the power of Satan!
Angry Aussie says
Yes. I saw that too. He is an extremist. His forehead gives him away. (Did you notice El Shahaby from the Egyptian Olympics Judo team had the same?)
Bezelel says
Warning !!! islam causes brain damage !!! We have court ruling to prove it. From now on anyone who practices islam is certifiably insane and and incompetent. Definitely to be considered unfit to hold any government office, own firearms, drive autos, or anything else that requires mental stability.
Janeatte says
Yes all Muslims who follow Mohammad are incompetent,Mohammad was crazy and incompetect. But there is no excuse for them ,they choose to follow crazy man.
medaber_emet says
this is horrible. the fucking judge want to release this jihadist. he will send him to mental illness institution and there after2 years they will say that he is cured and they eill relase him
you are screwed because he will contniue his jihad
Seabird says
No, he will be sent to a psychiatric facility where he will kill again (confirming he is insane) because as soon as he’s declared “sane”, he will have to face trial.and the death penalty.
We’re compassionate, we have to cure you first, then you can be tried and executed.
Islam is like “bath salts”, turning people into zombies.
Jihad is the Viagra of Islam.
Emilie Green says
When ya giving lemons, make lemonade.
My take. Even the left knows that thinking and acting like Muslims do is a sign certain of being crazy. This easily makes them The Other.
Crusades Were Right! says
I’ve heard of “political correctness gone mad” but this is ridiculous!
underbed cat says
The judges, lawyers in this country are lacking the information to make the determination that a man who states he is a lone jihadi, is mentally ill when in fact he is following sharia laws, his quran, at this point will declare his act. Although it seems as if he is suffering from a mental illness, he is indoctrinated with the commands. The supporters of his act privately know this information but will not state this to anyone who does share the doctrine. The real fantasy is that this doctrine does not exist, is not fighting most western civilizations and is currently spreading, taking many lives, and we have let in millions who may just get pious….but appear mentally ill.
WorkingClassPost says
Strange that muslims get so upset by every negative thing said about islam, yet they’re not complaining that this judge thinks they’re all mad, or at least those ones who do what the koran says are.
Silent like a snake, when it suits them to be so.
DHazard says
Muslims are told to follow the example of Muhammad. Muhammad approved of or authorized the killing of his critics. So, it is perfectly OK In Islam to kill a non-believer over a personal grievance.
Killing non-believers just because they aren’t Muslim is one of the most common themes in the Quran and Hadith. If is so obvious that only someone who gets all their information about Islam from other people wouldn’t know it. This is why it is the perfect religion for psychopaths and anyone inclined to commit murder. If you hate somebody then you can kill them just because they aren’t Muslim and if they’re already Muslim then you just have to find some way in which they fell short of Islamic perfection. When ISIS kills Shia Muslims they don’t have trials, the condemned are already guilty just by virtue of following the wrong Islam.
It may appear to a rational person raised in a democracy that anyone who actually believes the literal words and actions of Allah and Muhammad is mentally unbalanced. But if they were clinically ill then we would have to institutionalize billions of people.
What do you call someone who truly and deeply believes that Muhammad split the moon in two? You call them deluded or stupid unless they follow Islam, in which case you call them a SANE, honest Muslim. What do you call someone who sees enemies everywhere? You call them paranoid schizophrenics, unless they follow Islam, in which case they are SANE honest Muslims.
How can you tell if someone is following the “true” Islam or not? If you kill a non-Muslim and ISIS approves, then they are on sound ideological ground.
Angemon says
I’m going for the optimist approach – the judge is an “islamophobe” who is willingly denying Muhammad Nolen his ticket to the muslim heavenly brothel
Linde Barrera says
I read in a different article that the boss of Vaughn Foods had a gun and took a shot at the Muslim. Wonder why Boss didn’t shoot the bastard dead.
Rick Spencer says
Wow… what a prize zebibah that is on his forehead! The mark of the beast, most surely!
Ross Lloyd says
One assumes the co-worker was competent to have his head removed…
Richard says
He was competent enough to behead, but not competent enough to defend himself.
He doesn’t need to be – Obama and his judiciary department are super-competent at defending Muslim killers and mass murderers.
Linde Barrera says
To Richard- As per your comment of 8:59 pm, Aug 17, 2016, you are so right, and correct, and on the money. How come, if you can figure this out, (competent enough to behead but not competent enough to defend himself) that the stupid judge can’t or won’t. ?? You gave a good reason (Obama and his judiciary) but I think it is because Oklahoma somehow wants to set a precedent that allows for political correctness. I could be wrong. But in any case, I truly wish YOU were on the judicial bench in this disgustingly bizarre case, Richard.
Richard says
Thank you, Linda. Left up to me I would send him to his 72 virgins in record quick time.
You could put in a word for me to Obama or Loretta Lynch, but I somehow doubt that they would pay any heed to your recommendation.
Beagle says
Ah yes, another example of Islamic belief and the resulting prayer causing a zabibah which has damaged the prefrontal cortex.
He’s been hitting the weights hard in prison. Have fun with him, mental health professionals. Make sure his utensils are plastic though.
davej says
Mental illness is the get-out-of-jail-free card for Muslims. Their great faith in the nasty instructions of Muhammed both inspires them and then is used as a shield from punishment.
And our idiot Judges and Politicians go right along with this criminal deception.
victimized says
Some people might say that psychologists and psychiatrists are too crazy to understand their patients.
Dean says
What came first, the chicken or the egg? Does a fundamental belief in the literal meaning of the Koran induce mental illness or is a person mentally ill to accept it in the first place. Hmmm, depends on the age of the inductee. It also seems popular with criminal inmates seeking a justification and “moral” support for their blood lust. But it confuses the contemporary judiciary because the Muslim’s moral righteousness seems like psychosis.
ricardo` says
This does lead to the fascinating question of what, exactly, mental illness is. Historically, famous, successful leaders are considered profound. But the same characteristics in individuals who fail to accomplish prominent achievement are considered pathological. Joan of Arc was and is a major heroine, despite (perhaps because of?) being burned at the stake at age19. Many other people around the world have died similar miserable deaths without any recognition. They may be declared psychotic, considered nuts, or just totally ignored. Our understanding of human minds is way too primitive to permit rational evaluation of psychosis, and instead we rely on passion for what should be objectivity. People are crazy. And the mental health professionals are crazier still.
Robert John Bennett says
Hunt said: “He appears to be living in a fantasy world.”
But Islam IS a fantasy world.
People like Professor Hunt may be “experts,” but they just don’t get it. Again and again these days, I am reminded of George Orwell’s comment, “Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.”
michael says
What is the difference between a muslim who beheads an american and an american who beheads an unborn 9 month old by voting for Hillary’s support of PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION ?
A surgeon carves a hole in the head of an unborn baby then vacuums all the brains out through Hilary’s support of partial birth abortion .
IF YOU VOTED FOR OBAMA THEN YOU ALLOW THE BEHEADING MUSLIMS INTO AMERICA.
IF YOU WILL VOTE FOR HILLARY THEN YOUR VOTE SUPPORTS HER SUPPORT FOR UP TO 9 MONTH OLD BABY BEHEADING BY THE MILLIONS .
i SEE NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN Hillary AND A MUSLIM BEHEADING TERRORIST ……………..NEITHER DOES GOD !
From God’s perceptive ( not mine ) it’s all insane , hateful , murderous and evil and there is an eternal consequence to pay………
The voters of Hillary are just as guilty as the doctor who carves the hole in the babies head….
Your soul gets what you VOTE for …….
The voter gives the doctor the license to kill ………….and Hillary knows it !
imagine…….over 90 million DUMB DUMB HILLARY VOTERS IN AMERICA …..
Ciudadano says
“proper reading of the Quran are opposed to every form of violence” and improper reading of the Koran produces psychopaths be-headers of infidels. It seems the last form of reading is way too common.
Ciudadano says
“…the beheading was not in accord with Islamic law…”. So if a killer doesn’t follow the proper sharia due process to behead infidels he must be crazy and he is not following “authentic Islam”. Maybe this guy took the law in his own hands given that there was no sharia court available to issue a death sentence. Ridiculous.
Dean says
Acceptance of the literal meaning and fundamental beliefs of the Koran is always associated with a mental disconnect with reality, whether the Koran induced the problem or was attractive to the disconnected. The problem here is not this analysis but the undeserving respect this society gives shrinkdom and the personal biases in the judiciary.
Ciudadano says
In the positive side, if this resolution is valid then the founder of Islam must’ve been also a crazy psychopath person. QED.
Mr Hawkeye says
Sharia law would demand that he be executed by having his own head chopped off. Let him be treated as a “true Muslim”. Why put him in prison with food, medical care, and housing for the next 40 years. I’m tired of paying those tax bills.
