But of course, this has nothing to do with Islam. Everyone knows that.
“It is all designed to incite would-be pursuers of jihad to pursue violent jihad and to stir themselves to get on and do it.” Of course, British authorities would disagree.
“Libary designed to stir up jihad, says prosecutor,” by Katie Bice for the Herald Sun (thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist):
AN ARTICLE praising the September 11 hijackers and videos of Muslim extremists beheading hostages were found in raids on a home-grown terror cell, a court heard yesterday.
A “common library” of terror manuals and videos was shared by group members and was designed to stir them up to commit violent jihad, prosecutor Richard Maidment, SC, said.
He said Abdullah Merhi was found with a book entitled The 19 Lions, which heaped praise on those involved in the attacks on the World Trade Centre and Pentagon in 2001 that killed almost 3000 people.
“It glorifies the 19 aircraft hijackers responsible . . . and hails them as martyrs, suggesting they will go down in history for perpetrating one of the greatest victories that has ever been perpetrated in the name of Islam,” he said.
“It is all designed to incite would-be pursuers of jihad to pursue violent jihad and to stir themselves to get on and do it.”
The Victorian Supreme Court jury was told the book says the 19 were “martyrs” who made a glorious and noble oath to carry out the terror attack, and it terrified non-believers “to their very core”.
Another document held by seven alleged group members, entitled Clarification of what occurred in America, said that the atrocity was justified in Islam.
But of course, this has nothing to do with Islam. Everyone knows that.
