Colleen LaRose had faced a potential life term. But Judge Petrese Tucker accepted a government request to reduce the sentence, because of her extensive co-operation with investigators.

Larose, 50, of Pennsburg, Pa., told the judge she once had thought about jihad from morning to night, saying she was “in a trance.”

“I don’t want to be into jihad no more,” she said.

Public defender Mark Wilson, though, said LaRose has come to understand the true, peaceful tenets of Islam and said “there’s virtually no chance that she would ever be involved in violent jihad ever again.”

The Quranic Concept of War

JOSEPH C. MYERS

The universalism of Islam, in its all-embracing creed, is imposed on the be- lievers as a continuous process of warfare, psychological and political, if not strictly military. . . . The Jihad, accordingly, may be stated as a doctrine of a permanent state of war, not continuous fighting.” — Majid Khadduri
