I can imagine the emotions of a kid who's been bullied. I don't know that the 15-year old was systematically bullying the 14-year old, or really what was going on. Murder certainly isn't justified. But was the 14-year old intending to murder anyone? Was he striking out at someone he believed was persecuting him? Did he realize that a paring knife could kill someone? Did he intend to penetrate the 15-year old's heart? And even the victim's father isn't alleging attempted rape. Sexual harassment, not rape. For which I haven't found any independent verification.
I think that a lot of people are letting their anti-Muslim bias color the facts (what few are known) here.
I don't think people are letting their anti muslim bias color the facts. I think certain subject needs to be discussed openly and honestly without fear.
If the murderer really tried to rape a teenage girl, then I would want to address the issue of the so called rape culture associated with radical Muslims. (I did use the word: radical by the way because i don't believe all Muslims believe rape is justified.)
According to this article,
“The school can never hide anything. Even if the pupils are late getting to class, the parents are informed. If Arminas had been bullying anybody, we, the teachers, and the police would have known about it,” the father said.
story. 14 year old sexually assaults a girl. 15 year old stops it. 14 year old kills him.
That's not the story.
That's not even the victim's father's story. Sexual assault does not equal sexual harassment, and there is no one else coming forward to corroborate the story of sexual harassment. There does seem to be a history between these two boys, to the point that the 14-year-old's family complained to the school, and when the school didn't take action, complained to the police. There is a video of the older boy slapping and attacking the younger boy, which corroborates the bullying allegation.

According to this article
the real background to the assassination at Göinge School in Broby, Skåne, is that Arminas had been in a minor brawl with the Syrian student in December. The Syrian had sexually harassed a girl and Arminas came to her defense.
– A week later, we went to the school for a meeting. The boy swore he would take revenge on him, and that is what he did, says the father.
On Monday, the first day of spring semester, the 14-year-old Syrian put his plans into action. He took a kitchen knife to school, snuck up behind Arminas and stabbed him in the back. The knife pierced Arminas' heart and he later died of his injuries. According to media reports, the 14-year-old planned the murder during the Christmas break by searching online for information about killing with a knife.
He planned his murder by taking the knife to school. So to answer your question, according to the above article at least, this murder is most certainly Premeditated murder. It is not a case of temporary insanity.

We don't know what the 14-year-old planned. NO ONE says the Syrian had sexually harassed a girl except for the victim's father.
I expressly have stated otherwise. Perhaps you are trying to undermine my argument by attacking my character?
My argument is pretty solid. We don't know all the details of what happened here. We know that it is a tragedy that a young man lost his life. But the rush to judgment is premature.

But murder is murder no matter the motive.
There's no defending that which you seem intent on doing.
