Sydney man Bilal Khazal was charged today over terrorism activities. He was later granted bail during a brief court appearance. Australian Federal Police (AFP) said the 34-year-old, who allegedly published documents inciting terrorism on the internet, was charged with one count of collecting or making documents likely to facilitate terrorist acts. He was arrested outside his home at Lakemba, in Sydney's south-west, this morning. The AFP said Khazal the first person to be charged with the offence since the introduction of Commonwealth counterterrorism legislation in 2002. The AFP said a number of documents and a computer hard drive were seized...

Moslem cleric in England says killing non-Moslems is OK By: John Russell | Source: IRN NEWS May 27, 2004 5:29PM EST -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A leading Muslim teacher in the United Kingdom is telling his followers that the killing of non-Moslems is in accordance with Islamic teachings. Shiek Abu Hamsa of the notorious Finsbury Park Mosque in London has been videotaped telling his congregation that, “If a Kafir (that is a non-Moslem)is walking by you and you catch him he’s booty (that is a slave), you can sell him in the market. Most of them are spies. And even if they don’t...

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the last in a four-part series of exerpts from Endgame: The Bluepring for Victory in the War on Terror, by Thomas McInerny and Paul Vallely. SAUDI ARABIA The House of Saud is now locked in a fight for its life against Islamist terror. On May 12, 2003, al-Qaeda struck in Riyadh, killing twelve people in suicide car bomb attacks. In the fall of 2003, terrorists struck again in Riyadh, attacking a compound in which foreign workers, many of them Lebanese Christians, were killed and wounded. Another worrisome aspect of this attack was that some of the...

MOHAMMED, JESUS AND NICK by a Thoughtful Conservative Friend You mention that the topic on Free Republic for the past few days has been the Nick Berg Abu Ghraib “retaliation” murder. As Islam preaches “an eye for an eye,” you’d think the six Muslim captors would have stripped Nick Berg, tied him to a bunk, and covered his head with a pair of women's panties! Instead, this video is the most brutal thing I’ve ever seen. They mercilessly roll Nick onto his stomach while a practitioner of the "Religion of Peace" jumps on his back with his knee, and another...

Editor's note: In the light of the recent feeding frenzy in the press over some Mujahideen warriors who got their feelings hurt, it is apparent that many Americans don’t “get it” that we are in a war for our survival.  The article that follows is a corrective, particularly in light of the prison scandal and the unseemly and self-destructive hysteria over it. The prisoners being made into victims in the prison abuse debacle in Iraq were captured with guns in their hands in Iraq trying to kill our soldiers.  They are apocalyptic Muslim warriors/terrorists who live to die while killing...

MERRY CHRISTMAS...IF THAT'S HALAL I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone Merry Christmas, or Happy Hanukkah, or just Happy Holidays. I am spending the holidays with my family, so I do not know how much blogging I will be able to do. I have to admit that I have never told them about me converting to Islam, or even that I have any particular interest in it. I'm too ashamed--well, maybe not ashamed, but I have no real desire to know their reactions to it, when I know how little they think of Islam. Much of it...

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCERFriday, April 30, 2004 · Last updated 7:19 a.m. PTAdviser: Thai violence from movementBy SUTIN WANNABOVORNASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER BANGKOK, Thailand -- Surging violence in Thailand's Muslim south is the work of a growing but still shadowy movement that wants to carve a separate Islamic homeland out of the mainly Buddhist nation, officials said Friday.Gen. Kitti Rattanchaya, the south's top security adviser, said the movement has enlisted hundreds of fighters ready to sacrifice themselves. He said some were trained abroad "at religious schools," but he did not give the location."The target of this terrorist organization is separatism and the establishment...

The nation of Israel is a nearly sixty year old sore spot in the present-day Middle East, it costs American taxpayers a lot of money to support (billions per year), it's the focus of dispensational Christian theology, but ... Israel can take care of itself. Really. All the US has to do is say "sic 'em" and walk away. The US has a major problem with its role in the present world conflict because it has a religious underpinning in Islamic theology that has again reared its head. The Ottoman Empire was not defeated in 1918, at the end of...

Anyone who has flown since September 11 has experienced the heightened security put into place as a result of the attacks. Most of us have adjusted to the new realities. And we’re not the only ones adjusting. The people responsible for the heightened security—al Qaeda—have also adjusted. After September 11 officials stepped up their scrutiny of people seeking to enter the United States bearing passports from Middle Eastern and Central Asian countries. While civil libertarians and Muslim-American groups protested, al Qaeda adapted. As Robert Leiken of the Nixon Center wrote in the New Republic, Osama bin Laden is replacing Muslim...

ON APRIL 17, two American women were killed by a Jordanian in Kosovo. With all media eyes focused on Iraq, little notice has been taken of their sacrifice, yet Kim Bigley, 47, of Paducah, Ky., and Lynn Williams, 48, of Elmont, N.Y., apparently fell as casualties in the war on terrorism. Like the American contract employees murdered this month in Falluja, and the American journalist executed in Pakistan in 2002, and the American missionary killed in the Philippines in 2003, these women had voluntarily traveled to a dangerous Muslim-majority region to do constructive work. They were members of a U.N....

The message from the 9/11 hearings is that we're a bit slow in connecting the dots — about 25 years too slow. It was Feb. 1, 1979, when the dark side of Islam stepped off a plane from Paris in Iran. After 14 years in exile, Muslim cleric Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini had come triumphantly home to establish his revolutionary "reign of virtue," an Islamic theocracy designed to cleanse a nation of what Khomeini called "Westoxification," the poisonous influences of Western culture. With no delay, Khomeini urged a jihad against "the Great Satan" and supported the storming of the American embassy...

Guerrillas chop ears of village elders, warn people against voting By Indo-Asian News Service Jammu, Apr 21 (IANS) Separatist guerrillas chopped off the ears of two village elders in Jammu and Kashmir to warn people against voting in the general election, police said. The grisly incident occurred in a remote and hilly village in Udhampur district, about 150 km north of here. The guerrillas abducted village elders Hajji Amma Kala and Missruddin from Kalwa village late Tuesday evening and chopped off their ears after severely beating them. The militants then took the elders back to Kalwa and showed their chopped...

Four young British Muslims in their twenties - a social worker, an IT specialist, a security guard and a financial adviser - occupy a table at a fast-food chicken restaurant in Luton. Perched on their plastic chairs, wolfing down their dinner, they seem just ordinary young men. Yet out of their mouths pour heated words of revolution. "As far as I'm concerned, when they bomb London, the bigger the better," says Abdul Haq, the social worker. "I know it's going to happen because Sheikh bin Laden said so. Like Bali, like Turkey, like Madrid - I pray for it, I...

France Expels Imam Who Said Koran Allows Wife-Beating, AFP Says By Alex Morales April 20 (Bloomberg) -- French Interior Minister Dominique de Villepin will immediately expel to Algeria an imam who said that wife-beating is allowed by the Koran holy book, Agence France-Presse reported, citing a ministry statement. Abdelkader Bouziane, an Algerian who preaches in Venissieux near the French city of Lyon, was detained today after midday, the agency said. Judicial proceedings may be taken against him, AFP said, citing the ministry. Bouziane said in an interview with Lyon Mag that ``beating your wife is authorized by the Koran,'' according...

A rebel group in the besieged Iraqi town of Falluja has threatened to target Christians and destroy churches. The group called on Pope John Paul and the United Nations to stop the U.S. siege, Al Arabiya television reported. It was not clear if this is the same group holding Japanese hostages in Iraq. The group threatened to destroy churches in return for U.S. attacks on mosques, assassinate or kidnap priests, and target Christians if killing of Muslims did not stop, Al Arabiya said.

AFP Slideshow: Mideast Conflict "We knew that Bush is the enemy of God, the enemy of Islam and Muslims. America declared war against God.

Abdel Aziz Rantisi, leader of the Hamas terror organization, was killed in an operation by Israeli security forces. Rantisi, one of the founders of Hamas in the Gaza strip, was responsible for the Hamas terror policy and promoted the carrying out of deadly terror attacks. Rantisi, 56, was recently chosen to head the Hamas organization, replacing Ahmed Yassin. Rantisi took part in establishing the terrorist policy of the organization and also served as its main spokesperson. He played a key and active role in inciting to carry out terror attacks. Rantisi was one of the six founders of the Hamas...

On the dust-blown plains of central Iraq, Qawliya had long held a notorious reputation as a haven for prostitution, drug dealers and gun runners - until the village was reduced to rubble and its population driven from their homes. The attack that destroyed Qawliya was launched by the Mahdi Army militiamen of Moqtada al-Sadr, the young clerical firebrand who has become the voice of anti-American discontent for many of the country's Shia Muslim majority. It was this brutal display of Mahdi Army muscle last month - combined with the increasing power wielded by its Islamic sharia law courts - that...

Here is the full text of an enormously important paper that was presented by Ibn Warraq at a panel discussion on "Apostasy, Human Rights, Religion and Belief" held at the the 60th Session of the UN Commission on Human Rights in Geneva on April 7, 2004. Ibn Warraq, of course, is the outstandingly courageous author of "Why I am not a Muslim" and the editor of "The Origins of the Koran; The Quest for the Historical Muhammad"; "What the Koran Really Says"; and "Leaving Islam: Apostates Speak Out".The very notion of apostasy has vanished from the West where one would...

Nearly all Islamic intellectuals and leaders advocate terrorism, asserts an Arab columnist. Khaled Kishtainy, writing in the London Arabic-language daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, says talk of "love and peace in Islam" is just a cover for violence, reports the Middle East Media Research InstituteThe columnist, of Iraqi origin, says Islamic terrorism has "many roots and causes, and much has already been written about this. But I have personal input on this matter." "I place on the Islamic intellectuals and leaders of Islamic organizations part of the responsibility for [this phenomenon] of Islamic terrorism, as nearly all of them advocate violence, and...

NIALL Ferguson, the controversial Scots historian, has run into yet another academic spat over his claim that increasing numbers of Muslim immigrants could lead to "the death of Europe" within 50 years. Two leading authors claimed that Mr Ferguson's comments, made in a newspaper article this week, were "alarmist" and "ridiculous". Mr Ferguson had said Muslims were poised to "colonise" Europe and transform the continent into "a hybrid called Eurabia". He warned that Muslim colonies would "proliferate" in coming decades because of falling birthrates throughout Europe and the likelihood that most new immigrants would be Muslims. Writing in the Sunday...

Russia’s deputy prosecutor general Vladimir Kolesnikov said on Monday that people preaching Wahhabism must be made criminally responsible. «We must make responsible those who practice Wahhabism, who run the prayer houses and preach the cannibal ideology," the official said. Kolesnikov added that at the initial stage, the spreading of Wahhabism must be punished by one year in prison and in more serious cases the law must be applied with all its strictness up to the maximum punishment implied by the criminal law. The official added that he had already contacted the representatives of the State Duma Committee for Security and...

Way back a lifetime ago, on 14 January 2004 we published an op-ed piece in these Islam Commentaries about Jihad coming to Houston, Texas. A Muslim man named Mohammed Ali Alayed embraced the conservative tenets of Islam through a faith reawakening (I use this term reluctantly), murdered a Jew, and then confessed to the crime, which his own roommate witnessed as a near decapitation of the Jewish victim, Ariel Sellouk. We were astonished that the world press reported that Houston police said they didn't have a clue as to why Mohammed Ali Alayed killed Ariel Sellouk. On Easter Sunday, seemingly...

(Adds Italian comment, details, including name of one hostage) By Andrew Hammond DUBAI, April 13 (Reuters) - Al Jazeera Arab television aired a tape on Tuesday of four men described as Italians being held by a hitherto unheard of Iraqi Islamist group which demanded that Italy withdraw its forces from Iraq. The four men in civilian clothes were shown seated on a floor and holding up their passports, surrounded by gunmen whose faces were covered by traditional Arab headscarves. The name on one passport could be seen as Fabrizio Quattrocchi. "The Italian government...should vow and give guarantees to withdraw its...

Day after day, fanatic Arabs/Muslims murder "the infidels" and proudly profess their noble goal of spreading Islam and ruling the world. Hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, now --- perhaps hundreds of millions later--- are driven by this ideology. Could a world-wide Islamic hegemony usher in peace and prosperity? Despite the Muslim world's natural resources and vast territory, they are but a notch above the African Sub-Saharan expanse in scientific, intellectual and humanistic achievements. This is a shameful indictment. But shame, humiliation, guilt and responsibility are not readily acknowledged by the Arab/Muslim world. Thus, we typically see the "3-D Response"... Deflection,...

The Mirror of Fallujah No more passes and excuses for the Middle East Victor Davis Hanson What are we to make of scenes from the eighth-century in Fallujah? Random murder, mutilation of the dead, dismemberment, televised gore, and pride in stringing up the charred corpses of those who sought to bring food to the hungry? Perhaps we can shrug and say all this is the wage of Saddam Hussein and the thirty years of brutality of his Baathists that institutionalized such barbarity? Or was the carnage the dying scream of Baathist hold-outs intent on shocking the Western world at home...

Each day that dawns in Iraq, as well as Afghanistan, brings more of the same — mayhem, murderous attacks, bombings, killings, destruction, and many other covert actions — all of which are performed with one end in mind, to rid the country of America's presence, to eradicate her loyal and brave fighting men, the guardians of law and order, peace and stability the world over. For Muslim despots and zealots alike quake in their boots at having to deal with the reality that America and her coalition forces have conquered two Islamic nations and, at the same time, dethroned infamous...

Iraq Militants Threaten to Kill American April 10, 2004 03:23 PM EDT BAGHDAD - Militants on Saturday threatened to kill and mutilate Thomas Hamill, an American civilian captured during the ambush of a convoy west of Baghdad. Also Saturday, the kidnappers of three Japanese taken hostage in Iraq said they will release them within 24 hours, the Arabic news channel Al-Jazeera reported. The kidnappers of the Japanese, identifying themselves as the "Muhahedeen Squadron," said they made the decision after mediation by the Islamic Clerics Committee, an Iraqi Sunni Muslim organization, Al-Jazeera reported. In a statement, the kidnappers urged the Japanese...

Kidnappers set deadline for killing hostage By Colin Freeman in Baghdad and Philip Sherwell (Filed: 11/04/2004) Iraqi kidnappers paraded an American hostage in a tape shown on Arabic television last night and threatened to execute him unless US forces lift their siege of Fallujah by this morning. The captive, who was shown seated in front an Iraqi flag, identified himself as Thomas Hamill and said he worked for a private company which had business dealings with the US-led Coalition. Thomas Hamill on al-Jazeera If Coalition forces do not end their blockade, "he will be dealt with worse than those who...

There is a story told among Shiites today that as the revered Imam Hussein lay dying on the fields of Karbala in 680 A.D., he cursed the people of what is now Iraq for having deserted him in his hour of need. "May you never satisfy a ruler," he gasped. "And may you never be satisfied by a ruler." While I'm not sure how widespread that legend is among rank-and-file Shiites, it's worth remembering as we watch radical cleric Moqtada al-Sadr lead his nation off a cliff. As Hussein's anathema implies, there is something unstable and ungovernable at the heart...

Syria's Gulag By Farid N. Ghadry and Nir T. Boms FrontPageMagazine.com | April 9, 2004 Close to a hundred Kurds were killed during a series of riots that started in the soccer game in the city of Qamoshli last month. Over 1,200 Kurds were arrested for treason, espionage, incitement and the disruption of the public order. This is the story of one of them, a 14 year old boy we will call Ahmed, who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. We received this email from Syria yesterday. It was a private message but we felt...

In the following translation of one of the articles in the magazine, an individual calling himself Mohmmad Bin Ahmad Salem notifying the mujahideen of the Japanese military presence in Kuwait, and exhorting them to “Fight for God, and be mobilized for the Jihad, individually as well as in groups.” The full translation of the article is below.

I've got a question now I'd like to ask you. It was given to me by a number of members of the families. Did you ever see or hear from the FBI, from the CIA, from any other intelligence agency, any memos or discussions or anything else between the time you got into office and 9-11 that talked about...

After being nailed to a board by his master and left for dead – the last in a series of torturous acts – a Sudanese Dinka boy escaped from his bondage and lived to tell his horrific story. The story of "Joseph," a Christian, is told in a recent newsletter of the Persecution Project Foundation, an organization that monitors Christian persecution in Africa. PPF's Brad Phillips recently returned from visiting Joseph, who originally was sold into slavery at age 7 in 1987. "I had the privilege of spending a day with this amazing boy who is now called Joseph," Phillips...

Defending Secular Democracy A special report from HobbsOnline's new London correspondent. By George MillerLONDON - A report issued by the European Union's Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia (isn't it comforting to know the EU has one?) has decided that, yes, attacks against Jews in Europe are on the increase, but, wait for it…they are being carried out, in the main, by European white racists. At the same time, the EU has suppressed a report by a German academic that finds that Arab gangs are responsible for almost all of these attacks, according to a report by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard published...

It was a bit of a giveaway. “In ten years’ time I will be the next Osama bin Laden.” There’s nothing wrong with ambition. All the pupils in the Hazelwick School yearbook had their dreams of becoming pop stars, Test cricketers or top chefs. But only 16-year-old Ahmed Ali Khan wanted to follow in the footsteps of the world’s worst terrorist. He wrote it in summer 2001, just weeks before the 9/11 attacks. No-one thought much of it at the time. When his classmates asked Khan who bin Laden was, he replied: “Don’t worry about it” and quickly changed the...

Former Al-Azhar Fatwa Committee Head Sets Out the Jews' 20 Bad Traits As Described in the Qur'an On March 22, 2004 Sheikh 'Atiyyah Saqr, former head of the Al-Azhar Fatwa Committee who in the past issued a Fatwa declaring Jews "apes and pigs,"(1) was asked the following question this week in an online chat room: "What, according to the Qur'an, are the Jews' main characteristics and qualities?" The following is his answer:(2) The Bad Traits of the Jews Outweigh Their One Good TraitSheikh Saqr lists one positive trait of the Jews(3), and then 20 bad traits: fabricating; listening to lies;...

US Apache helicopters have sprayed fire on the private army of radical Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al Sadr during fierce battles in a Baghdad district. The fighting erupted when five vehicles carrying US soldiers and the Iraqi Civil Defence Corps tried to enter the district. It is claimed that members of the ICDC, a paramilitary force trained by the Americans, turned on the US soldiers and started to shoot at them. The soldiers fled their vehicles and headed for cover and then began to battle both the Mehdi Army and the ICDC members. Earlier in Baghdad, militia men loyal to al...

Nobody else is saying it, so, once again, it is left to me to explain what really happened in Iraq yesterday. Iran declared war on the U.S. The signs have been there for a long time. I don't know if they have been intentionally ignored by U.S. forces in Iraq, or whether there is some master plan at the Defense Department to deal with this scenario. All I can tell you is we are now fighting a regional war. Our local opposition in Iraq is being trained, armed and directed with foreign support – by neighboring Iran. The uprising yesterday...

"This is what I wished to advise you as our prophet, peace be upon him, taught us that advising one another is a religious duty.."

CAIR's Shameful SilenceBy Joel MowbrayFrontPageMagazine.com | April 5, 2004 Witnessing the gruesome attacks on four Americans in Fallujah last week would thoroughly sicken any fellow American—except for one very prominent American-Muslim organization, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). In a statement issued shortly after the gory murders, CAIR said that it “condemned the mutilation of those killed in Iraq on Wednesday.”  The slaughter of these men was not “murder,” though, it was merely a “killing.”  Nowhere in the statement, in fact, did CAIR condemn the murder of the four Americans.Nowhere in the statement did CAIR condemn setting on fire the...

The Saudi Fifth Column On Our Nation's CampusesBy Lee KaplanFrontPageMagazine.com | April 5, 2004 From Riyadh to Ramallah to the Ivy League, the Saudi Wahhabi lobby and money machine is funding the goals of radical Islam and undermining America’s efforts to prosecute the War On Terror. The press recently reported new closures by the Department of Justice of Saudi “charitable” fronts like the Muslim World League, the Al-Haramain Foundation, the International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO), and others which raised money for Al Qaeda, Hamas and Islamic Jihad.[1] But the government has so far ignored an even larger network of Saudi...

Someone sent me a joke in the e-mail today, in which Osama Bin-Laden calls Yasser Arafat and says, "Listen, Yassir, there is something that I don't understand. We are both terrorists, we both killed thousands of innocent people, but all the world is hunting only me, and at the same time you are the honorable Nobel-Prize for Peace Winner! What is your secret?" "Oh, it is very simple, Osamale. I kill only Jews." Now, saying that, we have a problem. The double standard is alive and well and functioning all over the world. Logically, the Jewish state would be well...

Eurabia and Euro-Arab AntisemitismBy Bat Ye’orFrontPageMagazine.com | April 5, 2004"The largest group of the perpetrators of anti-Semitic activities appears to be young, disaffected white Europeans," announced a summary released March 31, 2004 to the European Parliament from the report of the European Union's racism and xenophobia monitoring center. This blatant denial of local Islamic extremism and Muslim perpetrators, as the primary source of Antisemitic actions in contemporary Western Europe, was predictable. The overt Antisemitic violence manifest in Europe over the past three years resulted from several decades of inculcation.  Public denunciation by Christians and Jews of this poisonous Antisemitism forced...

AMMAN, Jordan - One question emerged for many Arabs who watched the grisly images this week of four American civilians whose bodies were burned and mutilated after an ambush in Iraq: So what? While the horrific killings Wednesday in the restive town of Fallujah outraged Americans and prompted the U.S.-led coalition to vow an "overwhelming" response, the incident barely registered in the Middle East, where the big news was an Enrique Iglesias concert in Egypt. The dead contractors were largely forgotten. "Who cares?" said Fida Alsha'er, a columnist for a Jordanian women's magazine. "It's another example of how American life...
