When did you last hear about a convert to Christianity or any other religion get the idea that his or her new religion commanded violence against unbelievers? Yet this is a frequently recurring phenomenon among converts to Islam. No authorities anywhere, however, have ever shown the slightest interest in this.
“French homegrown ISIS terrorist sentenced to 30 years for aggravated murder & leading group of jihadists,” RT, July 4, 2020:
A senior French ISIS member, who converted to Islam at 21, has been locked up for 30 years. It’s the first time a Paris court has imposed a sentence for jihadist crimes committed in Syria.
Tyler Vilus, 30, was found guilty of aggravated murder, being a member of a terrorist group, and heading up a group of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) fighters in Syria.
The homegrown terrorist is believed to have been part of the Al-Muhajireen (the immigrants) brigade of foreign jihadists that carried out executions and torture, which he denied. Vilus was found to have overseen executions as a member of the religious police in the Syrian town of Ash Shaddadi.
A 2015 IS propaganda video shown in court features a man believed to be Vilus standing close to two blindfolded prisoners, a member of the Syrian Army and a Free Syrian Army fighter, who are shot in the head.
Public prosecutor Guillaume Michelin said that Vilus “hasn’t changed one bit” since his time in Syria.…
Vilus was arrested at an Istanbul airport in July 2015 with a Swiss passport. He left France for Syria in 2012, not long after converting to Islam when he was 21 years old. He is thought to have known many French jihadists who were fighting in the so-called Caliphate. The IS fighter admitted to being in contact with Abdelhamid Abaaoud, who is understood to be the mastermind of the November 2015 terrorism attacks in Paris.
His mother, Christine Riviere, dubbed ‘Mama Jihad’ by the French media, was sentenced to 10 years in prison in June 2017 for her “unfailing commitment” to jihad. She visited her son in Syria three times and helped bring young girls there in an effort to find him a wife.

Sounds like he’s in it for the kill, the raping will come next. Remember that this religion is from God so its all good.

Kudos to France for prosecuting him. Now, in France, 30 nominal years equals how many weeks of real-time detention? And will they quarantine this POS on the inside? Oh and check the dead nobody home Muslim eyes.

France: Man converts to Islam, becomes torturer and executioner for the Islamic State
……………….
Yes–this is orthodox Islam.
Glad at least that he has been prosecuted in France. But how long before he gets out? Might he be torturing and murdering French people as early as 2035?

What’s more insane, Islam and being a torturer and murder, Or being a country trying to survive and housing torturers and murders for 30 years, or less, and then letting them go?
This is why we shouldn’t play with madness.

”She visited her son in Syria three times and helped bring young girls there in an effort to find him a wife.”

Funny how Islam can find these nut jobs and then cultivate them into the murdering thugs they become. Or did they start out as thugs and join Islam because it justifies their criminal actions? A rapid animal would be put down, but a rapid muslim is treated with kid gloves and belief that he can be rehabilitated in prison. He’ll only convert and recruit others in prison to follow his evil ideology. Send them to their death and let Allah judge them, with his strong belief in killing and violence on behalf of Allah he should be ok.
An eye for an eye looks like a good answer.

Some of both, I think. Re the latter, this is why Islam is so popular in prisons.
