Virtually nothing came out about Al-Issa (which is how he spells his name, not “Alissa,” a transparent media attempt to obscure his Islamic identity) after the shooting. His attack fits the pattern of numerous jihad attacks, and corresponds to calls from the Islamic State to attack random non-Muslims in the U.S. Also, numerous obvious jihadis have been declared mentally ill by clueless or compromised authorities. Is this another case of the whitewashing of a jihad massacre? We will likely never know for sure.
The best explanation for why Al-Issa stripped to his underwear, meanwhile, is that he was expecting to meet the 72 virgins. Islam’s paradise is physical, and the martyr’s body is not to be washed before burial, because the blood is an aphrodisiac to the virgins. Mohamed Atta, the 9/11 hijacker, had a tuxedo in his luggage that he apparently planned to change into before he crashed his plane, so that he would be decked out to meet the virgins (his plan was foiled when his luggage was flagged, but he wasn’t). Have authorities looked into this possibility regarding Al Issa? Of course not. That would be “Islamophobic.”
“Boulder mass shooting suspect has schizophrenia, defense says,” Associated Press, February 27, 2023:
DENVER (AP) — Lawyers for a man charged with killing 10 people at a Colorado supermarket in 2021 confirm he has schizophrenia, with one expert finding he was “approaching catatonia” before being moved to the state mental hospital for treatment.
The defense information, contained in a court filing earlier this month, provides the clearest picture to date of 23-year-old Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa’s mental health. District Attorney Michael Dougherty had mentioned last month that Alissa had been showing symptoms of schizophrenia, a mental disorder that causes people to have trouble understanding reality, but would not elaborate.
In their Feb. 16 brief, Alissa’s lawyers said that four psychologists have concluded that Alissa has schizophrenia, with an expert selected by prosecutors concluding that Alissa was “approaching catatonia” while he was still in jail. Catatonia can result in people being unable to move or speak at all, they said. That evaluation was done before Alissa was first found mentally incompetent to stand trial in December 2021 and moved to the state mental hospital for treatment. His prosecution has been on hold since then.
Since Alissa was moved, experts have continued to render him incompetent and unfit to proceed because he is unable to understand legal proceedings and participate in his defense, his lawyers said. The lawyers also said Alissa suffers symptoms that are resistant to being treated with medication.
“Mr. Alissa still suffers profoundly from these symptoms and they limit his ability to interact. He speaks in repetitive non-responsive answers and cannot tolerate contact with others for more than a very brief period of time,” they said.
The defense brief was filed in response to the district attorney’s request to allow another prosecution expert to conduct a different kind of evaluation of Alissa. Dougherty alleges that Alissa has refused to participate in some of his treatment at the hospital, including talking about the March 22, 2021, shooting and participating in group sessions and sometimes also refusing one-on-one meetings. He wants a forensic neuropsychological evaluation to be done on Alissa to know if his refusals are the result of mental illness or a conscious choice to not participate….
Investigators have not revealed a possible motive. They said Alissa passed a background check to legally buy a Ruger AR-556 pistol six days before the shooting.
somehistory says
It is not schizophrenia…it’s islam and he doesn’t answer or participate because he views the laws of non-mozlums as non laws and feels he doesn’t have to obey
them.
He’s faking it.
Just as he bought a gun and drove to a store where Jews were known to shop, and opened fire…the last part being a crime…because he doesn’t put any value on anything other than his teaching from the book of unholy filth.
If the defense wants to present him as insane, they have to prove it and prove that at the time of the murders, he didn’t appreciate that he was doing wrong.
David M says
Exactly, how could Islam not mess your mind up? Imagine reading the Quran & being brought up as a Muslim, all the backward seventh century garbage. Then you go out into the modern 21st century which is directly opposite to that Muslim crap. It would do anyone’s mind in.
somehistory says
They all have mental issues, but I believe they know what they do is wrong.
maria linde says
they are mentally sick, but they are the worst murderers in the world. They were always backward because they love death.
They “teach” her children 4 years old how to kill non-muslims
notoislam says
Agree with you! These filthy believers in Islam need to be killed off ih giant amounts and see if this method will cut down on their evil acts against infidels.
Ellen Ruiz-Harrison says
Everyone has something that they struggle with. Do not use this as an excuse to neither malign people with severe mental illness by calling sociopathic behavior “mental illness”, nor to allow them to get off the hook by using that excuse. If there is a societal return to consequences for crime, it would be a great start to eradication snit-social behaviors.
PS: People who struggle with schizophrenia are far,far more likely to be attacked, than to attack, let alone kill.
gravenimage says
Ellen Ruiz-Harrison, I don’t believe that anyone here is maligning people with mental illness. It is more pointing out the absurd instances of Jihad terrorists getting off because their lawyers claim they are mentally ill.
Too many Infidels cannot grasp the concept of Jihad terror being *taught* to Muslims, and assume that any such perpetrator must be mentally ill.

Dr. Robert Christopher Laity says
It is generally known that ISLAM teaches hate of non-muslims. Insanity is NOT a defense of these precepts. If one muslim is exonerated on the basis of being “Insane” all muslims who practice such hate will claim the defense. There is no defense for Islamic precepts normalizing Jihad and hate of “iinfidels”. Islam is simply EVIL!!!
somehistory says
My point was, and is, that an “insanity defense” transfers the obligation of “proof” in a court of law to the defense.
Generally, a prosecutor will have to “prove beyond reasonable doubt…a.k.a. what a reasonable man would accept as proof of guilt…that the defendant is the guilty party.”
In a case where the defendant and his attorney say he was not guilty by reason of insanity, or by reason of self-defense or that of another, the defense team must prove that the defendant is not guilty. In other words, they have the burden of proof.
Not guilty by reason of insanity is an affirmative defense and must be shown that the perp didn’t know at the time of the crime that his actions were wrong.
I’m not advocating for the guy to get off. I don’t believe his lawyers can prove he didn’t know what he was doing was wrong….because he did know it.
Rick says
What possible defense does a Muslim have who conducts a terrorist action against shoppers in a market or worshippers in a church or synagogue? They cannot claim the righteousness of “Death To The Infidel” so they are left with either a mental instability claim or coming under the influence of “radical” Islamists preferable during a trip to a Muslim nation. They kill a US or British or French citizen in that victim’s country and were caught “red handed” to stand trial. They can be defiant and shout “Allah Akbar” when asked a question by the court but that will earn them a long prison term without parole. So they take a more meek approach which is not exactly the jihadist way but may earn them perhaps a lesser sentence and provides them with a future reason for getting out of prison early “I am no longer mentally ill!” Maybe we should apply sharia law as punishment for Muslim terrorists. I think they rarely escape a death sentence in their own Islamic nations and the same should be here as well.

Are most Muslims mentally ill? If yes they should be sent assyllum , to ensure others who are not ill are protected.

Except that one then loses the differences b/w the genuinely ill vs this fake illness contrived to cover up the sociopathic tendencies of islam

Colorado: Lawyers for Muslim who murdered ten people in supermarket say he’s schizophrenic
…………………………………….
This is the usual apologia for Jihad terror–no acknowledgement that this is all orthodox Islam..
Besides, if this number of Muslims were really all criminally mentally ill, that would be another reason not to roll out the welcome mat…

Does he get 720 virgins? Or just 72?

What justice do the victims and their relatives get after three years?
OLD GUY says
Maybe we as a country should reconsider allowing the migration of muslims into America because of their high risk of mental health problems that lead to violence.
gravenimage says
Quite right, OLD GUY–even if Muslims *were* just very prone to mental illness and not Jihad terror, this would still be a good reason to restrict immigration.
Rick says
Good idea but at the very least a Muslim should undergo a mental test
1. Have you ever been given a mental evaluation? What did it conclude?
2. Do you have feelings of Hate towards any particular people or of a particular religion?
3. Do you feel that Israel has a right to exist?
4. Do you know what the Holocaust was? Tell me what it was.
5. Is the murder of anyone ever considered “just” for political reasons?
6. Flash tests – like showing a photo of an Israel soldier or the flag of Israel of a jihadist armed to the teeth with a koran- and ask how he feels seeing it. Sort of a Rorschach test.
