Initially, Mehmet Biber's Facebook posts were like any young Australian his age. ''Going to daa footy show watch me on ch 9 TONIGHT'' he posted in April 2010, followed by Xbox results and soccer scores. Gradually, however, the things that mattered to the Turkish-Australian from Merrylands appeared to change. - Aziz Araz, a Turkish-Australian man from Melbourne. Photo: Supplied In March last year, he shared details of a seminar in Granville called ''Syria We Hear Your Cries''. Months later, he had posted a talk by the terrorist cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who was killed by a US drone in 2011, pictures of bloodied children in Syria and fanatical religious thoughts. ''Oh Muslims, wake up from the delusion of this temporary world,'' he wrote in October. ''Wake up to the reality that your sisters are being killed and raped in front of there [sic] children and husbands, children being blown up by jets and helicopters, men being humiliated like dogs, then slaughtered like cattle. What will our reply be to Allah on that day?'' -0 Lebanese-Australian man Zaky Mallah, from Parramatta, who travelled to the Syrian frontline in 2012. Then, between June and July this year, Biber allegedly travelled to Syria to fight with terrorist forces against President Bashar al-Assad's regime. Police allege he was one of six Sydney men sent to the battleground by disability pensioner Hamdi Alqudsi, 39, who was arrested on Tuesday and charged under foreign incursion laws. Biber, however, is not Syrian. Nor is his family, nor is Alqudsi or the other five men he allegedly sent to the frontline, a mix of young Somali, Anglo-Saxon, Lebanese and Turkish Australians with no prior convictions. - Sheikh Mustapha Al Majzoub (circled) from Sydney, who was killed in a rocket attack. Photo: Supplied Their case has exposed a concerning trend in Australia whereby young, Australian-born Muslims are becoming so passionate - some would say radical - that they feel compelled to do something about the Syrian conflict despite having no connection to it. ''Very few of the people who are getting involved in the Syrian conflict actually have personal or family ties to the country,'' says Assistant Commissioner Peter Dein of the NSW Counter Terrorism Squad, who confirms there are several more ''active investigations'' into Australians being recruited to the Syrian war. Since the conflict began, about 100 Australians, mostly Lebanese-Australian dual citizens, have travelled to fight, and many more have become embroiled in sectarian violence at home. - Kickboxer Roger Abbas, killed in cross-fire in Syria. Photo: Supplied Six have died, although it has only strengthened the resolve of others. ''You wake up one morning and a cup of coffee no longer tastes like coffee. It feels like it has been disturbed with blood,'' says Lebanese-Australian Zaky Mallah, 29, who travelled from Parramatta to Syria last year to carry out aid work. ''That's the beginning. When you want to eat, you no longer think of how good the food is. You're working, but you don't feel the work any more. You reach the point where you just want to book a flight and go there.'' Mallah had barely travelled abroad when he sold his car, bought a ticket to Turkey and met some Free Syrian Army soldiers by chance in a hotel. That night, he crossed the border with them and spent three weeks on the frontline watching - but not participating in, he insists - the battle. ''Sitting at home and seeing the number of people being killed by the barbaric Assad regime, seeing the displaced refugees, seeing the atrocities - I just couldn't do nothing. I couldn't as a human being, I couldn't as a Muslim.'' Lebanon and Syria have a history of hostility but social media and the emergence of extremist groups in Sydney have led many young Australians to view it as a cause to die for. Graphic photos, YouTube footage, news reports and provocative lectures have been shared around the world on social media. The Facebook pages of young Australian Muslims reveal footage of children being slaughtered, diatribes against ''Salafi dogs'' and pictures of machineguns and swords. ''A lot of young Australians tune in so easily to cyberspace to hear fatwas, to hear sheikhs in Saudi Arabia and Egypt saying, 'young men, this is your duty, this is your opportunity','' says Australian Arabic Council founder Joseph Wakim. ''They see graphic images of their brothers and sisters being killed. It's understandable that there's this continuum; they have a pre-existing dislike for the Syrian government, plus the graphic images, plus the voices of these revered leaders and suddenly they're at the airport saying, 'I'm going over to do humanitarian work'.'' Most of the six Australians to die in Syria travelled via Turkey, with the intention of carrying out aid work. Few told their families. (Mallah says their parents' generation are ''old school'' and, having escaped war in Lebanon, would not understand their children's desire to join it.)  ...........

........Few told their families. (Mallah says their parents' generation are ''old school'' and, having escaped war in Lebanon, would not understand their children's desire to join it.) Yusuf Toprakkaya, 30, wandered along the border until he found a group willing to smuggle him into the war zone, where he was reportedly trained as a marksman and bomb maker. He died from sniper-fire. A documentary on Roger Abbas, 23, from Melbourne, found that he went to Syria to do aid work but became involved with terrorist group Jubhat Al Nusra. All six were under the age of 30 and mostly of Turkish and Lebanese background. The typical Australian ''global jihadist'' is young, unmarried, socially marginalised and economically disadvantaged, said the University of Western Sydney's Dr Jan Ali, who is researching the radicalisation of Muslim youth. ''They don't consider themselves restricted to a particular country; they see themselves as part of the global ummah [Islamic nation],'' he said. ''Islam brings them together, not Syria.'' The emergence of controversial and conservative Muslim groups in Sydney, such as Bankstown's Al Risalah community centre, the pan-Islamic political organisation Hizb ut-Tahrir and the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama'ah Association, which runs several mosques and the Bukhari House bookstore and prayer hall in Auburn, has created fear that young people are being indoctrinated. A recent lecture by Sheikh Abu Sulayman at Al Risalah called on the audience of mostly young men to give their ''wealth and blood'' to the Syrian cause. Hizb ut-Tahrir launched a campaign in support for Alqudsi on Wednesday and helped raise $10,000 for his bail. A youth worker and director of the Forum on Australia's Islamic Relations, Kuranda Seyit, expressed concern over the brainwashing of young men. ''The youth I work with are generally naive and unassuming and get enticed to join groups that share a common brotherhood. Once they join, they get caught up in more serious topics about politics and issues around ''us and them'', so then there is the potential for a sort of ghost-train ride towards dangerous and irreversible decisions that lead to a person finding themselves in … a conflict they have no understanding of.'' Police have described Australians travelling to Syria as a ''game-changer'' for national security because of the risk of bringing skills, knowledge and radicalised views back home. The 100 believed to have fought in Syria far exceeds the highest estimates of Australian jihadists involved in previous overseas conflicts, Monash University terrorism researcher, Andrew Zammit, said. He puts the surge in Australian involvement down to three factors: Lebanon's historical links to jihadist activity in Australia and to hostility with Syria, the ease of access into Syria and the conflict's broad appeal, which is bolstered by widespread outrage over continual massacres and international inaction. The federal government is cracking down, in the past financial year, ASIO confiscated the passports of 18 people suspected of travelling for terrorist purposes, the largest number in any year. However, Australian Federal Police Deputy Commissioner National Security, Peter Drennan, admits it is difficult to stop someone leaving the country, and to gather intelligence once they are in Syria. Ali says the Muslim community also needs to do a better job of policing itself. ''Generally, in my experience, the most popular sheikhs are the ones who capitalise on their charisma and are less subjective in their understanding of Islam,'' he said. ''The sheikhs who have a tendency to encourage jihad are not well conversed with Islamic teaching. What's missing is education. It's the blind leading the blind, and it takes generations to eradicate that.''

That is always 'the line' from the moslem community [wherever].

This LIE, this blatant FALSEHOOD, is spoken so as to engender sympathy and respect towards the 'typically' 'noble' and 'altruistic' 'moslem man', among those who are observing the moslem community - from the outside.

But the truth is that the moslem community are, yet again, simply playing their deceitful game - with us.

The moslem camp always, projects the perception [to those who are not moslems], that moslems must truly be virtuous people.

Every moslem! Every non-moslem should be aware and recognise, that ISLAM is in fact, a criminal compact among moslems, to wage a violent 'religious' war against ALL non-moslems ['unbelievers']. And in my estimation, every good moslem **does understand** what his/her **religious** OBLIGATION is, to ISLAM, and to fellow moslems.

What ?

Moslems generally, so as to encourage moslems to leave Australia ?

Bugger that!       [....and i suggest that you enquire if Karnal will assist you, in that]




AN ALTERNATIVE;
We [Australians] should have a serious conversation, among ourselves, about, and exploring, what ISLAM is, and examining and truthfully scrutinising what it is, that ISLAM is promoting and encouraging in the world.

Then, subsequent to that conversation, among ourselves, hopefully [ha ha ha!] our national community could come to a national agreement that ISLAM and the societal 'values' which ISLAM promotes, are NOT compatible with the societal values that the majority of we Australians aspire to [...e.g. political freedom, and a political system which stresses the importance of political truth, and the importance of a functioning justice system [based upon truthful and fearless scrutiny] ].

And thereafter, we should seek to have our politicians bring forward legislation in our Australian parliament, to proscribe [ban] the membership of any ISLAMIC group - within Australia.



'Moslems' who are in Australia, and who are willing to publicly renounce ISLAM, can stay, and remain in Australia.

OR, if they are unwilling to renounce ISLAM, moslems can arrange to leave Australia, under their own steam.

And there should be serious penalties [e.g. decades in a remote desert goal, and subsequent expulsion from Australia], for any persons who trespass against such laws [those laws which declare ISLAM to be a proscribed group] and are members of an underground ISLAMIC group, within Australia.



Why so ?

Why put such onerous encumbrances upon persons who desire to be 'moslems' - within Australia ?

#1,
I for one, do not like ISLAM!

And if some persons,
1/ want to embrace ISLAM, and
2/ want to be moslems, and
3/ want to 'practise' ISLAM,
...then those persons can do it in another country [as far as possible away from me and mine], as far as i am concerned!

#2,
And another reason, as stated above, imo, ISLAM and the societal 'values' which ISLAM promotes, are totally incompatible with the 'societal values' that the majority of we Australians, aspire to.




#3,
In a modern world sense, ISLAM can be defined, essentially, as a vicious, evil, fascist political philosophy.

ISLAM is a political philosophy which [it can be demonstrated!] uses common age-old political 'mechanisms' [like lying, deception, intimidation, and extreme violence], in seeking to pursue its [ISLAM's] political aims.

And in the area of 'deception', where moslems are resident in Western nations, moslems are using their community 'status', as members of a religion, as a shield [and as a cloak] which moslems cynically use, to protect themselves [and their community], from legitimate scrutiny and legitimate censure by outside organisations and individuals.


IMO, ISLAM is an extremely deceitful and extremely violent political philosophy,
.....which is masquerading as a justice based religion.

I wonder what they would make of the following hadi'th and the official islamic explanation?


Quote:

10. Ibn Umar (رضي الله عنهما) narrates: I heard the Messenger of Allah (صلي الله عليه وسلم) saying, “If you trade in each, and follow the tails of cows, and became content with being farmers, and ignored jihad, Allah will impose on you a humiliation that would not be taken away until you go back to your religion.” (Abu Dawud - Authentic) The meaning of the hadith is that if people ignore jihad because of their involvement in agriculture and similar affairs, Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) will unleash upon them their enemies which would bring them humiliation which cannot be eliminated unless they go back to what is a duty upon them to start with and that is jihad against the non-believers, and being harsh and rough on them, and establishing religion to give Islam and its followers victory and to raise the word of Allah high and to humiliate disbelief and its followers. This hadith shows that leaving jihad is leaving Islam because the Messenger of Allah (صلي الله عليه وسلم) said: “until you go back to your religion.”

It's very clear that muhammad told muslims that islam is a religion solely of jihad, you leave jihad you leave islam.

Pound for pound, Islam is the champion of oppression. I can't think of one single Islamic jurisdiction that is not  oppressive.  Islam (Submission) is by definition authoritarian and dictatorial. It is THE opposite of freedom.
It is prescriptive of every aspect of life.  Freedom and Islam are contradictions.

So exactly which 'Islamic jurisdiction' are you talking about? Can you tell us exactly which country is run by Islamic law?

I have travelled to many Muslim-majority countries but am yet to find one in this day and age that is run by Islamic law.

I lived for a while in the world's biggest Muslim country, and felt freer there than I did in Australia.



Speaking of oppression let's remind ourselves of John Howard's sedition laws:


Quote:

Schedule 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Bill (No. 2) 2005,[5] passed by the Upper House on 6 December 2005, repealed Sections 24A to 24E of the Crimes Act (1914) and reintroduced them, along with several new classes of offence, in a Division 80—Treason and sedition. Crimes in this division now attract a maximum penalty of seven years' imprisonment. Seditious Intention[edit] The definition of "seditious intention" originally in Section 24A has become (as amended): An intention to effect any of the following purposes: (a) to bring the Sovereign into hatred or contempt; (b) to urge disaffection against the following: (i) the Constitution; (ii) the Government of the Commonwealth; (iii) either House of the Parliament; ...The new laws more than double the maximum penalty for sedition from three years imprisonment to seven, and allow certain convictions relating to the use of force or violence on the basis of recklessness rather than proven intent. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_sedition_law

So it is illegal in Australia to say anything is wrong with the Queen, the government, the constitution, or the system of government.

Go freedom! :D

Having a blasphemy law does not make Pakistan an Islamic state.

It is still a fact that Pakistan is ruled according to the British common law system.

The blasphemy laws was pushed through by Zia al-Haq who was primarily a capitalist and not religious. His introduction of the laws were a cynical ploy to win support for his anti-communist campaign.

He said himself regarding the introduction of the laws: "We are going back to Islam not by choice but by the force of circumstances."

The manner in which Zia had the laws implemented was not Islamic, and they were wrought by extremist elements that Zia al-Haq was courting in his anti-communism crusade - not by the moderate majority of Muslims.

The fact is that the core and base of the Pakistani government and legal system is British common law.

Think of it like this: if North Korea suddenly made a blasphemy law but the rest of the system stayed the same would you not still consider it a communist state?

A blasphemy law does not make an Islamic state.

Australia has blasphemy laws - is Australia an Islamic state?

For example:


Quote:

Victoria The Crown last laid a charge of blasphemous libel in 1919. The case concerned socialist journalist Robert Samuel Ross, who had published a satirical piece in which Bolsheviks ransack heaven. The prosecutor dropped the charge but proceeded on a charge of sending blasphemous materials through the mail. The Court convicted Ross, and sentenced him to six months of hard labour. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasphemy_law_in_Australia
