AUSTRALIA has been singled out as a target for “forest jihad” by a group of Islamic extremists urging Muslims to deliberately light bushfires as a weapon of terror.

US intelligence channels earlier this year identified a website calling on Muslims in Australia, the US, Europe and Russia to “start forest fires”, claiming “scholars have justified chopping down and burning the infidels’ forests when they do the same to our lands”.

The website, posted by a group called the Al-Ikhlas Islamic Network, argues in Arabic that lighting fires is an effective form of terrorism justified in Islamic law under the “eye for an eye” doctrine.

Considering how dry much of the US southwest is these days, we may want to keep our eyes sharp.

Then I guess we really can’t blame the Aussies for torching every mosque they can find.

I thought “Climate Change” was causing the fires? Whatever will the libbies do now? You can’t burn down the trees, but you can’t offend the Muslims either! What a quandary, indeed. </sarc>

“scholars have justified chopping down and burning the infidels’ forests when they do the same to our lands”.”

Forests? Forests grow in the sand? what ever...

Our forests will be burned down by the Mexican drug cartels growing dope in them before the Jihadi’s get around to it.

Do you think they’ll torch the WH?

Too bad Australia has banned guns. They are under attack by the Islamists.

yup

“Then I guess we really can’t blame the Aussies for torching every mosque they can find.”

Whether that is a justified response or not, but is surely to happen.

I'm firmly convinced that most of the fires in California last year and the year before were acts of arson. Idaho had bad fires around Ketchum last year. The year before, we had over 2 million acres burned. We went for weeks with smoke in the air in eastern Idaho.

Considering how much of Australia's gone up in recent firestorms, I'd say someone's already started down this path.

Time to round them up and deport them from the country.

Interestingly, they haven’t identified the two youths who were arrested.

Yutes? I thought they only burned Peugeots. (Who can blame them for that?)
