Naomi - //andy-hughes, none of those quotes claim her 'faith made her do it' - simply that her religion influenced her actions.
Here’s today’s Daily Mail. Two stories there. One, that her husband had taken a second wife, and the other that she discovered a boyfriend she met in Moscow was married, so who knows?

You said ‘at least one newspaper advises’. Are there any others? //
Your willingness to keep defending the conclusion-leapers on this thread is admirable - even though it is clearly on shaky ground!
The crucial part of your post is those vital three words - // ... so who knows?//
Who indeed!
Which was exactly my point yesterday!
No-one knows what made this woman commit this crime - and to date she has not ben charged with anything let's not jump to conclusions again shall we!
My point is that the quoted individuals showed a biased and in my view bigoted willingness to link the incident with Muslim extremism - and to date, the lady herself, better qualified than any of us to advise her motives, has not mentioned her faith at all.
The reports advise that she claimed she 'heard voices', and there is mention of 'manic psychosis'.
Are you going to continue to fan the dying flames of the argument, or just accept that this was conclusion-jumping by posters who are more interested in condemning Muslims than they are in waiting for a few facts to turn up.
