Of course. Because what else could possibly motivate a “radicalized” Muslim to kill people other than mental illness?
“Norway bow-and-arrow attack that killed five people appears to be ‘terrorist act,’ police say,” by Erin Cunningham, Ellen Francis and Rachel Pannett, Washington Post, October 13, 2021:
An attack by a man armed with a bow and arrow that killed five people in a Norwegian town appears to be a “terrorist act,” police said on Thursday….
Norwegian media reported that a court had granted a restraining order last year for the alleged attacker to stay away from two of his family members for six months after he threatened to kill one of them. The police attorney said psychiatric experts would assess him on Thursday and that he had confessed to Wednesday’s attack….

A huge number of Pysicriatics will be required because there are many Muslims who need investigation.
In fact, a funded researchprogramme is an urgent need.

If Muhammad had been alive today , the leftists would have admitted him to a psychiatric hospital instead of accusing him of being the main source of Islamic terrorism ??

If insanity explains why this happens so often, the rate of insanity caused murders for non-Muslims should be the same as for Muslims. And if there is a higher rate of insanity in Muslims, then the West should stop admitting them as immigrants or refugees. Who wants to increase the costs of treating insanity in their country by bringing in more of it.

Spot on common sense, Jim.
tim gallagher says
Very well said, Jim. Whether it is this stinking pile of barbaric crap, Islam, which causes all these Muslims to carry out terrorist attacks (over 40,000 since the 9/11 attacks), which I believe is the case, or it is because mental illness is very, very common among Muslims, just keep them out of all our countries. Whatever the cause, Whether islam itself or insanity, they are not worth the trouble and misery they bring.
James Lincoln says
Well stated Jim, my compliments.

Maybe they should examine Islamic doctrine and Hadithes from Mr Mohamed instead. People who base their lives on the false doctrine from the 6th century become wise to do evil by default depending on the level of activation the doctrine has in their hearts and minds. (Quran 101)
Here on JW, the Quran and Hadithes are directly quoted to understand the foundation the faithful base their lives on. You can’t argue with that lest you be found to be arguing against the Quran itself. Norway should face the facts and stop using the “psychiatrist” excuse. Again, the presence of Islam in non-Islamic host country Norway is self-inflicted.

converts are usually the most radicalised muslims from the whole of the muslims and are more eager to perform terrorism… they do it in order to be forgiven for their previous life as unbelievers i suposse or to prove they really believe in allah…. it is also the birthday of allah these days so there is a muslim uprising everywhere….
Rarely says
I wonder if it’s just that islam attracts the type of person who relishes murder and mayhem and that some of the converts couldn’t care less about the religion itself but are attracted by the violence.
Michael Copeland says
Islam attracts violent people. – Amil Imani.

It is notable that in the West most male converts to Islam are violent felons in prison.
David M says
Yes, converts are the most radical because they have actually studied the Islamic teachings before they converted, ie slay the unbeliever. As opposed to the average western Muslim who was just born into it & doesn’t have a clue what the teachings are.

Norway: Muslim who murdered five with bow and arrow will be examined by psychiatric experts
……………….
Uh huh–even though police already knew that he was “radicalized”. Denial of Islamic motivation of Jihadists is almost as grave a “mental illness” as is Jihad itself…

Greetings”
I’m currently reading “The Viking Heart” by Arthur Herman of the Hudson Institute. It’s a relatively light historical read, kind of a pain to his Scandinavian heritage. Somewhat amazingly, he writes very little about Islam and Muslims while making sure to alert us all to the “rise” of Scandinavian Neo-Nazis and such.
Forgive my pessimism, but I no longer see how we are getting out of this Progressive mess.

Except for their explorations, lauding the Vikings is pretty ugly stuff. (I like your typo “pain” for “paean”). The Vikings devastated many parts of the world, including Britain and Ireland. They were slavers, and they frequenlty brought slaves to the slave markets of the Muslim world. A grim genetic statistic–while Iceland is (generally) pretty civilized today, *every* native woman there is a descendant of kidnapped English, Scottish, and Irish women.
Jon Sobieski says
I just watched an NBC youtube clip where the murderer is described as a Denmark NATIVE. I kid you not.

No mention of his being a Muslim convert? Disgusting but grimly unsurprising.

Memo to Norway’s psychiatric experts:
The Koran, which is part of Islamic law, does instruct “Kill them wherever you find them”.
The “them” are non-muslims.
Koran 2:191, 9:5
Jesper says
Well…
In this case it is justified to look inte the mental health. He had, before announcing to be a muslim, a history of:
– drug addiction
– forced treatments at mental institutions
– restraining order not to approach his parents
– his friends warning that it was only a matter of time, before he would kill someone.
A total nutcase who should not have been roaming free.

Psychiatrists ….vs psychopaths of mozlum intent.
Dr. Robert Hare wrote about his experiences in a prison where he was sent as a young man to be the in-house psychologist. He was new at that kind of thing and said that he tended to put too much trust in the lies. Everyone who wants to understand the mind, the way the mind works, of a psychopath should read his books. They are eye-opening.
Anyway, if the doctors this mozlum killer sees are naive, they will never get to the root cause…islam and its rotten, evil, demonic commands and allowances to those who follow the commands of the book.
One must understand an *illness* before one can see the cure, and with islam, it is all of the substance that makes the mozlum behave in what many see as “insane.” But, mozlums see it as a natural thing because they are taught to see it as normal; and what they are meant, what they are alive, to do.
mozlums speak a different language…even if they are speaking French to a French man, or Norwegian to a man born in Norway, or English to a Brit. They don’t think the same way and their meanings for the simple words are different.
Until the authorities understand and admit these things, they will do no differently regarding terror attacks by mozlums.

Re: Psychiatrists
“One must understand an *illness* before one can see the cure”
100% true.
In medicine, the key is to make the proper diagnosis. This involves doing a comprehensive history and physical – along with any additional testing.
This should lead to, at least, a working diagnosis – which can be confirmed with further testing, consults, etc.
But if the true diagnosis is not even included in the range of possibilities either due to lack of knowledge or political correctness, the true diagnosis will not be made.
And, of course, proper treatment is dependent upon a proper diagnosis.

Thank you, Dr. Lincoln.
A long, long time ago, I had an eye problem. One doctor told me the ‘name’ of the problem, a little about from whence it came, but nothing I could do to help myself.
Another one, higher priced, couldn’t tell me what was causing my eye problem…no mention of the thing the previous doc had said, and told me straight out that he couldn’t help me.
Not that many years ago, I was told what it is, what ‘probably’ causes it and then one doc gave me what would help…can’t cure it, and much damage has been done…and it has helped somewhat, and has kept it from getting worse.
JQA may not have been a doctor, but he knew what islam does, as did Churchill. Society seems to have retrogressed and yet, not, as many ‘leaders’ are unable to see the problem. If they truly went “back” to the days of JQA, they could see a lot better.

If that murderous Muslim really is mentally ill it’s because his religion homicidal/crazy.

It can be argued that Islam itself is a mental illness. But then all adherers are insane. No doubt in a way. We do need a discrepancy here, though. The mad dog committed murder and maybe he is severely sick then it will show. The interesting thing is that authorities automatically call upon psychiatric investigation as soon as a jihad thing is committed.
