“A preliminary mental health forensic assessment had concluded that Peralta ‘was not able to appreciate the wrongfulness of his actions.'”
Of course not. He believes he has done a great deed of jihad for Allah, but that is something that the court is not interested in investigating.
And so this convert to Islam becomes yet another manifestation of the global outbreak of mental illness.
Did Carolos Peralta hate Jews before he converted to Islam? Or did his Jew-hatred come with his new religion? Was he a murderous thug before his conversion, or did that come with his new religion as well? It may be that he had showed signs of both before his conversion, and that those were among the attractions Islam held out for him. It may also be that these tendencies were born and reinforced within him by his study of the Qur’an and Sunnah. Investigators should be asking questions such as these, which would be illuminating for other cases. But they aren’t.
“Muslim who killed Uruguayan Jew to avoid jail,” JTA, October 14, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The Muslim man who murdered a Jewish merchant in Uruguay seven months ago cannot be held responsible for his crime by reason of insanity, a court in the South American country ruled.
The verdict reached over the weekend likely will send Carlos Peralta, a convert to Islam, to a psychiatric center rather than prison.
David Fremd, 55, was stabbed to death on March 8 near his store in the small town of Paysandu. He was an active member of the local Jewish community.
Peralta, the judge said, “must be in permanent treatment supervised by reliable third parties” for “suffering from chronic psychosis of schizophrenic type.” A preliminary mental health forensic assessment had concluded that Peralta “was not able to appreciate the wrongfulness of his actions.”…
Peralta reportedly yelled “God is great” in Arabic while stabbing Fremd 10 times in the back. He later declared that he “followed Allah’s order.”
The prosecution said he was put on trial “for the hatred he felt toward the ethnic and religious community represented by its victim.”

Moses says
Someone like that deserves a death sentence people should deal with such Muslims the way the Chinese and the Russians do.
cs says
Identity politics consider them as victims….
gravenimage says
I’m afraid that China and Russia do a great deal of pandering to Muslims as well.
Angemon says
Russia gave its muslims a sharia republic, just as long as they vote Putin.
gravenimage says
Absolutely true. Chechnya has become a full Shari’ah state under Putin’s watch–this does *not* bode well for the safety of Russia.
cs says
Peace in Chechenya won’t last forever, those guys are too fanatic. That is a barrel of TNT.
Sheykh Yer Weeni says
The Infidel Imam says, “Allahu Akbar!” does *not* mean “God is great!” It means “Allah is greater (than other gods or powers)!” The Islamic call to prayer is therefore also a war cry. When we Kafirs (I prefer to leave the epithet untranslated, as Kafir does *not* mean “Infidel”, but “concealer”, a very pejorative term) hear “Allahu Akbar”, we need to be locked and loaded already.

Mubarak says
Why can’t he be insane while in jail?
Sheykh Yer Weeni says
Mubarak, what do you say about people who think their god wants them to dominate the world? “Delusions of grandeur” is not strong enough.
Mubarak says
Such people inevitably substitute themselves for god, so when they speak about god they in fact speak about themselves.
What about calling these people “kafirs on stilts” when they move around for Allah and “kafirs on stealth” when they bow down for Allah?
Sheykh Yer Weeni says
The Infidel Imam is in favor of calling Islam a mental disorder, in the same way as pedophilia. Pedophiles are ill, but also dangerous. Muslims are deluded, but very dangerous.
gravenimage says
The idea that pious Jihadists are “kafirs” is ludicrous. They could not be more Islamic.
Angemon says
Mubarak posted:
“What about calling these people “kafirs on stilts” when they move around for Allah ”
Let me see if I get your “logic” here: muslims killing in the name of allah are, in fact, “kafirs” – i.e., non-muslims. Is that it?
Crusades Were Right! says
Remember the “old school” nutters?
I’ll take Napoleon over Muhammad any day!
mortimer says
Jews outside of Israel have been siding for years with the jihadists by voting largely for Leftist politicians that promote large-scale importations of Muslim migrants.
The naivety of non-Israeli-supporting Jews is equal to the naivety of those German Jews in the 1930s who waited for Hitler to begin his deportations before they realized they had missed the opportunity to escape. When the last safe European and New World countries are filled with Muslims, where will Jews run to hide?

Mortimer, you hit it on the head
Dov Berrol says
Thank Hashem for Tzahal. We will all end up in Israel, s’sha’a tova. It will be the only place where a Jew/Hebrew/Israelite/Israeli/Judean will be able to live in peace and security and defend himself from those wanting to murder him or her. We no longer can live by the good graces of others.
Dov Berrol says
*b’sha’a tova = in good time
gravenimage says
Dov, there are many Jews living in security in the United States. If someone want to make Aliyah, that is great– but the idea that Jews in the US are all targeted for murder is just untrue.
Jack Holan says
If my Dads generation was alive and still calling the shots this killer would be dead; free, prison or hospital and in Uruguay.
Paul says
“Peralta reportedly yelled “God is great” in Arabic while stabbing
Fremd 10 times in the back. He later declared that he “followed Allah’s order.”
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t mean “God is great”, but rather “Allah (and
specifically allah) is greater (than your god)”. Even so, ‘journalists’
just can’t help pushing the lie with the “we all worship the same god”
crap, which we clearly don’t.
Miriam Klika says
No one should have the death penalty but that judge should be judged insane.

Uruguay: Muslim who stabbed Jewish man to death while screaming “Allahu akbar” avoids jail, declared insane
…………………
Funny how these murderous Muslims all over the world are “insane” in just the same way…
nicholas tesdorf says
I suppose, technically speaking, that anyone screaming “Allahu akbar”, would qualify to be declared insane. Believing in Mohammed, Allah and Islam is sound grounds for being regarded as insane.
Guest says
I consider all jihadists to be sick freaks. When a dog goes mad you don’t lock it up, you put it out of it’s misery.
Angemon says
Stabbed in the back – the usual islamic courage.
thelastvirgingoat says
Protesting Muslim’s with slogans like death to the Jew’s are commonplace all around the world.I’m surprised they didn’t just let him go.
Lucía says
People easily turn these matters into a religious thing because of the media’s focus. OK, the dude killed a jew. OK he was a Muslim. But it’s still a human taking another human life.
I am Uruguayan and I don’t take sides nor will I discuss this matter as if I knew what the actual deal is about. But this is too close to home not to express my personal opinion.
The perpetrator has to go to jail and the case can’t be trapped in religious semantics in a country as secular as ours. But what do I know.
