You said — “Jihad allows all the faithful to be judge, jury and executioner. It matters not whether they are sane or insane.”
The “sane ones” (and that’s in terms of being able to function with tasks at hand and in the psychological and psychiatric sense) are the ones who are committed to their religio-governmental philosopy — as the ruling force for this world. That’s their idea.
The insane ones can barely function in any society and wouldn’t be even able to hold a coherent and understandable philosophy and maintain their own way in any socieity (Jihadist society or western society). We’re talking about being able to maintain and hold onto a coherent set of ideas and function in that society. The jidhadist have their ways and we have ours. Because they are different than ours doesn’t make them insane. However, what it does make them is evil — but evil is not insane.
This guy, the shooter is a nutjob and can’t even make sense about what his problems are and what his goals are — and if he has any philosophy that he spouts out, it’s a mish-mash of mixed up ideas in his own head. I’ve already read some of his stuff and have heard some of his own recorded comments. He can’t even make enough sense in his own statements.
At least the Jihadists makes some sense in the framework of their own beliefs and philosophies. This guy (the shooter) can’t even do that....

Their leaders might. However, those they get to blow themselves up, along with innocents, and other non-combatants are filled with hate, anger, and are every bit as fanatically crazy as Cho.
Good, articulate and rational explanation.
Yes, I certainly fear the sane and evil ones more than this guy.
