- Danish student Louisa Vesterager Jespersen and Norwegian Maren Ueland were killed while camping in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco last December

By AFP, 30 May 2019:
The alleged leader of a jihadist cell accused of killing two Scandinavian hikers in Morocco has admitted he beheaded one of the women, saying the murders were carried out in the name of ISIS.
Danish student Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24, and 28-year-old Norwegian Maren Ueland had their throats slit while camping in the Atlas mountains in December.
‘I beheaded one of them… I regret it,’ former street vendor Abdessamad Ejjoud, 25, told the court, blaming co-defendant Younes Ouaziyad for killing the other hiker.
‘We loved ISIS and we prayed to God for it,’ he said.
Danish student Louisa Vesterager Jespersen and 28-year-old Norwegian Maren UelandStory continues below advertisementDanish student Louisa Vesterager Jespersen (pictured left), 24, and 28-year-old Norwegian Maren Ueland (right) had their throats slit while camping in the Atlas mountains in December
Twenty-four defendants – facing charges including promoting terrorism, forming a terrorist cell and premeditated murder – appeared in the court in Sale, near Rabat, under heavy security.
Three are suspected of direct involvement in the killings. Ejjoud had been jailed for trying to join IS in Syria.
In theory, the killers could face the death penalty, but Morocco has had a de facto freeze on executions since 1993.
Abdessamad Ejjoud (pictured)has admitted he beheaded one of the women
The main suspects are all from the Marrakesh region, near the site of the killings which shocked the North African country.
Nature lovers Jespersen and Ueland shared an apartment and went to Norway’s Bo University, where they were studying to be guides.
They had travelled together to Morocco for their Christmas holidays.
Their lives were ended in the foothills of Toubkal, the highest summit in North Africa, some 50 miles from the city of Marrakesh, a tourist magnet.
According to the charge sheet, the assailants travelled to the High Atlas mountains on December 12 on a mission to kill tourists.
Several potential targets were passed over because the foreigners were accompanied by guides or local residents.
It was four days before the killers selected their targets, according to the prosecution. It said two of them carried out the killings while the third filmed them on a phone.
After the bodies were discovered, the Moroccan authorities were initially cautious, referring to a ‘criminal act’ and wounds to the victims’ necks.
But that changed when the video surfaced showing a victim being beheaded.
In it, one of the killers refers to ‘enemies of Allah’ and says the murders are to avenge the killings of jihadists in Syria.
Ejjoud has blamed co-defendant Younes Ouaziyad (pictured right) for killing the other hiker. Rachid Afatti (left) is also a suspect in the killing
A separate video published in the initial aftermath of the murders showed the alleged killers pledging allegiance to IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
The only foreigner among the defendants is Spanish-Swiss 25-year-old Kevin Zoller Guervos, who moved to Morocco after converting to Islam.
The others come from modest backgrounds, scraping by on odd jobs and living in neglected areas of Marrakesh, the North African kingdom’s main tourist city.
Investigators said the ‘cell’ was inspired by IS ideology, but Morocco’s anti-terror chief insisted the accused had no contact with the jihadist group in conflict zones.
IS has never claimed responsibility for the murders.
At a previous hearing, the court accepted a request by the Jespersen family’s lawyer for the government to be held ‘morally responsible’ for the killings so they could receive compensation.
The trial opened on May 2 but was adjourned to May 16 and then paused again after a brief hearing.

It is time we Western women start cutting of the members of ISIS scum. Let them slowly bleed out as they know they will not go to paradise for having been killed by a woman. See what they have to say then. Never travel unarmed anywhere that these creepy creatures are found.

sAD AS it is I never hear about the ISIS and others of filthy islam being taken out by those they are attacking or being attacked by the kafir/ It will come down to this in CA and the rest of the USA because the Dems and those of their ilk refuse to use logic and see that islam needs to be destroyed.

After being brainwashed by their “educational” system into believing islum is a religion of peace they probably thought as little about going to an “exotic” muslum state as they did about going to a Girl Scout meeting, but sometimes epiphanies come hard.

You would think their parents would be aware of the dangers in letting their daughters travel to a country full of Allah worshiping degenerates, especially when so many young women have been raped and murdered in Scandinavian countries.

Didn’t one of these women post a pro islamic ideo stating that “you can’t judge people by their appearance”? She didn’t make that video, but she was the star of another video — a snuff video where she and her friend were killed by those they did an apologia for.

Yes, She was brain washed. Below is the video she circulated on social media. Maren Ueland, beheaded and raped by ISIS jihadis in Morocco, in 2015 posted pro-Muslim migrant video on Facebook.
Jespersen and Ueland no doubt also learned that Islam is a religion of peace, and that only racist, bigoted “Islamophobes” think otherwise. So why should they have had any reason to be concerned about hiking in a Muslim country such as Morocco?
If they heard any dissenting views regarding Islam, there is no doubt also that those views were subjected to furious and concerted demonization. They were likely taught, if they heard anything at all about people who do not believe that Islam is a religion of peace, that such people were “bigots,” “racists,” and “Islamophobes,” and should be regarded with disgust and contempt.

Better to be a racist, bigot and Islamophobe than assaulted, dead and dismembered by “peaceful” Islamic fanatics.
The solution has two parts:
1. A mass deportation effort against anyone who showed no legitimate ID upon entry, and any asylum/refugees who don’t have citizenship. Swedes have become weak and won’t do it, they need to hire some no-nonsense mercenaries to clear the no-go zones “with extreme prejudice”. Survival of a nation is more important than a temporary suspension of “rights” for non-citizens. 2. Quit encouraging more illegals. End benefits, especially for multiple kids (why should Swedes pay to raise those who will want to kill them?). Treat Swedish citizenship like it means something. Juncker is calling nationalists “stupid”, and the Brit Army says “patriotism” is evidence of right-wing extremism. Treat your borders like they are something you defend by all means necessary (like has been done for thousands of years of history). And end Swedish tourism to Muslim nations. Embassy staff and business people only.
And a reciprocal policy that Muslims will be treated in the West like Christians are treated by Islamic “nations”. No more thousands of new mosques from oil and globalist money.

Thank you for the hyperlinks. We should send our heroine’s “Fatwa” book and Robert Spencer books to those Scandinavian coountries so young Scandinavian girls will not be duped as lambs to the slaughter as these two young women were. The lib/commies keep asking about the devout Muslims, why do they hate us? For them i,t is a rhetorical question foisted to imply that we deserve to be hated. When the Iranians seized our embassy in 1979, I read John Laffin’s “Dagger of Islam” to find out something of what Islam is and why it does the things that its activist wing does. Also, the late James Kelly said on the old Firing Line show about why Muslims hate us and how to handle it. I cannot get that Firing Line program on you tube, unfortunately.

Moroccan Muslims Raped & Beheaded Two Tourists
Wednesday, December 26, 2018
(Staff articles from The SUN UK, BNI, & JIHAD WATCH in December 2018.)
MOUNTAIN SLAUGHTER: Two young Scandinavian female backpackers found ‘raped & decapitated’ at popular tourist hiking trail in Morocco.
The Danish and Norwegian victims, who were students in their 20s, were discovered by other tourists near the foot of North Africa’s highest peak, Mount Toubkad with what police say was ‘evidence of violence on their necks’ while unverified local reports say they had been raped and decapitated. THREE men have been arrested after two female backpackers were found with severe neck injuries in their tent at a popular trekking spot in Morocco.
The tourists from Denmark and Norway, who were in their twenties, were discovered yesterday near the village of Imlil in the High Atlas mountain range where they had set up their tent. Louisa Jespersen and her friend Maren Ueland had been camping when they were horribly attacked.

Obfuscation, lies, deceit, fallacies of argumentation that’s allah the defenders of f’ing muslums and their death cult have. If they could’ve spun the murders of these two women as anything but what it was they would’ve done so.
I’m still wondering if the recent mass stabbing attack in JP was a muslum terrorist attack being covered up by the Japanese authorities.

Of courseAbdessamad Ejjoud regrets killing the women — blonde haired, blue eyed women are worth a mint on the sex slave market and have been since the days of the Ottoman Empire.

His regret means nothing. He is simply another example of the violence associated with Islam on a daily basis around the entire world. Regret is not repentance.

“‘I beheaded one of them… I regret it,’” Sure he did. Oh, was that him in the video of the beheadings, deeply regretting what he had just done. Was that him, in the video, begging for forgiveness. Was that him, in the video, crying out to his friends in anguish over what they had just done. No. Perhaps only a slow execution for this filth will do.

I must confess that I too once was naive enough to think that moslems were peaceful; I once socialized with a local moslem community, once I smelled the evil I immediately left, they ordered others to kill me and I had to pay one assassin not to kill me (the assassin needed the money to defend himself from other assassins for refusing to follow orders to kill me). I witnessed firsthand that islam is a cult, this is why they kill you when you leave. If these 2 naive girls knew a little better they would still be alive today. R.I.P.

Sweden has surrendered its Euro women to rape/murder in the name of diversity, multiculturalism and integration. Swedish women should be shaming the men into action; unfortunately, Swedish women in government, and feminist women are a big part of the problem. Feminists would have conniption fits over Western women in black beekeeper costumes, but if Islamic women do it (no choice) it is a sign of strong womanhood. WTF?

I hope both killers are given their well-deserved 72 whores in Allah`s garden of all lusts.

The media do not want to be seen as racist or Islamophobic. Every time there is an article in the Daily Mail about Islam or Muslims, which is always about their violence or their disgusting cult, the comment section is either ” we are not accepting comments” or they might allow one or two comments that are mediocre. They are such cowards.

America, the land of the baby butchers, sodomite marriage and everything that is an abomination against God the Almighty……..all the while there is a church on every corner and a Bible in every bookstore……..will be dealt the same evil they have been dishing out to defenseless babies since Roe V Wade.
