Jewish terrorist suspect on murder charges

I don’t see the need to put Jewish Terrorist in quotes like CNN.

An American-born Israeli man, called a terrorist by Israeli police, was indicted Thursday on murder charges despite his attorney’s concerns about his mental stability.

Yaakov “Jack” Teitel, a West Bank settler, was indicted on two murder charges, four attempted murder charges and several lesser charges, including carrying and manufacturing weapons, Israeli court authorities said.

Teitel, 37, was arrested last month in connection with a string of attacks and murder plots over the past 12 years against Arabs, homosexuals, leftists, messianic Jews and police, according to Israeli police and security forces.

Attorney Adi Keidar has said that his client is mentally unstable and needs psychiatric help.
