“The man began receiving Swiss disability benefits for these psychiatric problems when he turned 18 and continued to receive those benefits after he moved to Morocco in 2015.”
His mother “said that after living in a youth centre and being introduced to the Koran, her son had “started going to the mosque a lot.”
Authorities will dismiss this jihadi as another manifestation of the global outbreak of mental illness. However, it is not at all outside the realm of possibility that he could have genuine psychiatric problems, and also have opted to turn to jihad violence because of his devout commitment to Islam. He may have thought that his psychiatric problems were a manifestation of demons or jinn working in his life, and decided to do something great in order to get into the deity’s good graces. And Islam teaches that there is no deed greater than jihad: a hadith has a man asking Muhammad, “Instruct me as to such a deed as equals Jihad (in reward).” Muhammad replied, “I do not find such a deed.” (Bukhari 56.4.2785)
“Swiss suspect in murder of Scandinavian hikers ‘had psychiatric problems,'” The Local, January 9, 2019:
A dual Swiss-Spanish national arrested in connection with the murder of two Danish and Norwegian hikers in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains in December was receiving Swiss disability benefits for psychiatric problems, a Spanish newspaper reported on Tuesday.
The 25-year-old who grew up in Geneva believed “he had demons in his head who were telling them what to do” and that “thanks to the Koran he had managed finally learned to control them”, Spain’s El Mundo newspaper reported a Geneva-based friend of the suspect as saying.
The man began receiving Swiss disability benefits for these psychiatric problems when he turned 18 and continued to receive those benefits after he moved to Morocco in 2015, the man’s friend added in a report that has not been officially confirmed.
The Swiss-Spanish man was arrested on December 28th for alleged links to the murders of Danish student Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24, and 28-year-old Norwegian Maren Ueland who were found dead in the High Atlas, south of Marrakesh on December 17th.
He is not suspected of personally having taken part in the murders, which are believed to have been carried out by four men belonging to a cell inspired by Islamic State (Isis) group ideology, according to Moroccan counter-terrorism authorities.
However, the Swiss-Spanish dual national is “suspected of teaching some of those arrested in this case about communication tools involving new technology and of training them in marksmanship,” according to Moroccan authorities.
He also subscribes to “extremist ideology” and has been involved in the “recruitment of Moroccans and sub-Saharans to carry out terrorist plans in Morocco”, Morocco’s central office for judicial investigations has stated.
Mother says suspect was in Geneva at time of murders
Spain’s El Mundo newspaper also spoke to the mother of the Swiss-Spanish dual national who said everything being said about her son was “lies”.
The woman, who lives in Madrid, said that her son had been in Geneva with family when the murders occurred on December 17th.
She admitted her son had had a tough adolescence after losing his father at the age of 15, and that he had “smoked a lot of joints, burned cars and had committed a number of robberies.”
She also said that after living in a youth centre and being introduced to the Koran, her son had “started going to the mosque a lot” but that she had “not noticed anything unusual”.
She said her son had never had Muslim friends and suspicions that he planned to rob a jewellery store in Switzerland and give the proceeds to so-called Islamic State (Isis) didn’t add up….

Anyone, anyone, who actually believes the nonsense of Islam has imo gone ipso gone mental.

A mental patient who reads the koran and goes to a mosque. Hmmm, that sounds like all musloids!

”The 25-year-old who grew up in Geneva believed “he had demons in his head who were telling them what to do” and that “thanks to the Koran he had managed finally learned to control them”. This is blatant propaganda for Islamofascism from the Spanish Marxist rag El Mundo. The truth of course is that the Koran is indeed a manual for demon control, but not for the purposes of restraint but instead for the dark art of channelling the hate towards appropriate targets.

This has got to be the CRAP excuse of the past decade, OR, the past 1,400 years of Islam..
I would argue that anyone who subscribes to the fundamentalist tenants of Islam is completely unbalanced..
So, the answer to this international “diversity-at-all-cost” “GROUP HUG” presently afoot, is to embrace the inmates in the asylum, and see which of them strikes first?
What these animals did to those young women is well beyond the framework of “psychiatric problems”.. Perhaps, what is going on in the “cult” enclaves of “mosques” IS the problem.. Maybe it’s just the unadulterated sickness of ISLAM!

Daemons in the head telling them what to do or funny or scary stories, is a common self description of paranoid psychotics…Often it’s God talking to them, and when God says ‘strike that man down, it’s time to strike that man down…
It sounds to me like he was psychotic to begin with, and his discovery of Islam just aggravated his condition…

First, to blame psychiatric problems ” for the heinous cruel brutal and murderous behavior of at least one of those vicious Muslim terrorists who ruthless and malicious murdered those two young Danish women is a further example and even proof that the saying must actually be true . The saying is “Evil is always looking for an excuse.”
Second, if there is any genuine mental illness Involved on the part of the malice-filled misogynist Muslim terrorists who murdered those girls it’s a mental Illness which Islam inflected the Muslims with in that this heinously violent and viciously cruel and murderous religion transformed the cogitation of that Muslim man who ,at first ,might had one been “good person” into a jihadist monster who could no longer understand or care of or about the difference between right and wrong .As the author Jamie Glazov would appropriately term a “Jihadist Psychopath.”
By the way , as most s of the reader of this site already know ,the term “Jihadist Psychopath” is the title of the new book written Mr. Glazov .
I’m still i n the process of reading and so far have discovered it to be very interesting and informative..

Memo to “The Local”:
That “Islamic State (Isis) group ideology”, that “extremist ideology”, is Islam, ordinary basic normative Islam.

THEIR CONCLUSION: Everyone who attends the mosque ‘A LOT’ is a mental patient???
15% of all Muslims attend the mosque ‘A LOT’ … so are these 200,000,000 Muslims all INSANE ??? Or does mosque attendance make them INSANE ???
JIHADISM is the teaching that JIHAD is the most IMPORTANT activity in Islam. It is normative Islam, rather than ‘insanity’.

Little boy: “Mommy, a little voice in my head says to pick my toys.”
Mother: That’s your conscience, Son. Do what it says.”
Mental patient: Demons in my head telling me to do things, like steal and rape and kill.
islam: Do everything those demons are telling you. It’s the way to paradise and 72 virgins waiting for you.
This guy who had a part in the rape, murder and beheading of those two women, may have had a mental problem, or many. islam appeals to the psychopathic who wish to do evil things. It gives them license to do what they already wish to do. If their mental problems are such that they feel “lonely” or “alone” and perhaps depressed and feeling lost and without purpose, islam could appeal to them as a means of expression they have not felt before.
But, the conscience, the moral compass, working rightly, will speak against doing evil things, even if one has mental issues. Those who ignore their conscience or “burn” it until it quits speaking, are susceptible to the demons and islam is full of these evil creatures.
A mental issue or illness is not the same as “insane.” Insane in the legal sense is not being aware that an action is wrong when the action is being performed. Mental illness should not be used as an “excuse” to allow these monsters to torture, rape and murder innocent people.

had “psychiatric problems,” “started going to mosque a lot”
Yeah, anybody going to a Mosque has to be mentally insane.

Switzerland: Muslim tied to murder of Scandinavian hikers had “psychiatric problems,” “started going to mosque a lot”
………………………..
And then he used those Swiss disability payments to fund his murder of these two young women.
One might argue who the crazy people are here…
Marigold says
Islam itself was inspired by Satan centuries ago.It says in the Bible that Satan can appear as an angel of light and Muhammed claims to have received his revelations from an angel.That it has some good in it only serves to confuse its more moderate followers.However,combined with drug use a re-discovering of Islam or a conversion to it plus what it says about Jihad can be a lethal combination.
Marigold says
I must add that how these young women met their deaths was ghastly.How can the girls poor mothers live with such a tragedy especially as one of them was heard calling out for her mother? It will haunt them for the rest of their lives.These poor people badly need our prayers. Definitely the work of demon possession! If the MSM all over the West don’t know by now that Islam is not a religion of peace then they are the ones who are crazy.
underbed cat says
It would be interesting to know, how these beautiful young woman hikers came into contact with the jihadist, or group of jihadists that kidnapped these woman. It is sad to realize they may have just had a friendly, polite conversation prior,and then realized a sinking feeling of some aggression or potential entrapment Hearing voices and hostility can be a mental illness but add drugs and converting to the koran is as Marigold says a “lethal combination”. But so is the potential result of open borders and mosque building to spread this horror within all countries. Ignorance of this doctrine and sharia no longer should exist in government or in the media.

Let’s face it, if Muslims weren’t f*cking crazy, they wouldn’t be Muslims, duh!

‘FAITH’ – a mere accident of geography, inculcated into innocent children by brainwashed parents; child abuse, IMO. Then used as a masterful method of control. Doesn’t matter much what ‘religion’…

dual citizenship and bigotry are problem. Some IS culprits demanded that they can not attend regular judiciary system as they wanted sharia court like IS.Terrorist astray scholars demand Islamic study in school syllabus.
TruthHonestReality says
I know the muslime lovin’ leftists around the globe have been using this same psychiatric narrative saying these jihadwatch murdering scum have psychological issues. I don’t understand this. Are they saying that anyone that murders someone and happens to also be a muslime must have psychological issues?
The media and leftists keeps telling everyone that islam is a religion of peace and that muslime crime and muslime terrorism is a social construct so white women like this go on trips and hikes and vacations in muslime areas for various reasons like “wanting to make a difference” and other laughable reasons to anyone not infected with the leftist pathogen.
