Why is Abdul Nacer Benbrika a cult figure among some Muslims in Australia? Why doesn’t the vast majority of peaceful Muslims rise up and condemn this idolizing of a man who plotted to murder 80,000 people in the name of Islam and jihad? Why do non-Muslim authorities never ponder the implications of the fact that they do not?
“Supporters rally behind terrorist Abdul Nacer Benbrika who plotted MCG bomb,” by Alex White and James Dowling, Herald Sun, August 3, 2014 (thanks to Kenneth):
A JAILED terrorist who plotted to kill 80,000 people is still considered a risk by security agencies.
Algerian-born Abdul Nacer Benbrika, who led a terror cell planning to bomb the MCG on Grand Final day, is believed to still hold a strong influence over young extremists in Victoria, despite being held in the high-security unit at Barwon Prison.
Several devotees in Melbourne’s northern suburbs of Preston, Brunswick and Coburg have praised Benbrika as their spiritual leader online. They labelled the cult figure a “king” and a “martyr” on several Facebook pages.
At least three women in Melbourne’s north have photoshopped pictures of Benbrika covered in love hearts and roses accompanied with the words “Luv U”.
One woman even labelled the wannabe mass murderer as a “cutie”. According to intelligence sources, some members of Benbrika’s crew severed ties with the group while in jail, but others remain involved and supportive of their leader and his cause.
Last week, the Herald Sun revealed two of Benbrika’s followers — the Raad brothers, Ahmed and Ezzit — who had been released from jail, had close ties to Adam Dahman, 18, of Northcote, who detonated a suicide bomb in Iraq on July 17.
Friends said Dahman had been radicalised by the notorious extremist Raad family living in Melbourne’s north with links to Benbrika.
A community member told the Herald Sun that jail had done nothing to lessen the Raad brothers’ passionate evangelism.
It’s not “evangelism.” It’s dawah: Islamic proselytizing.
In March, a male claiming to be related to Benrika said he worked at Melbourne Airport and posted jihadist calls on social media on an account that has since been removed.Benbrika, who was also known as Sheik Abu Bakr, is serving 15 years with a minimum of 12 for directing a terrorist organisation.
During his court case, informants revealed a 16-month probe by Operation Pendennis uncovered the plot, which also considered Crown casino on Grand Prix weekend in 2006 as a potential bomb target. Security sources believe Benbika still holds strong extremist views.

Gosh, he *is* cute. If I were a human male homosexual, I’d sure wanna marry him, cuz that’s legal and admirable now. And if I had to be hacked to death for being an Infidel, I’d sure hope that this rock star cutie would be the one to do it.
That smile of his tells me his mind is already up there in Islam porno heaven Jannat, even as his body suffers the rough love of Australian prison.
Aardvark says
“even as his body suffers the rough love of Australian prison.”
I suspect he will need a shave and a scrub-up before he gets any ‘rough love’ from his fellow inmates at Barwon!
PJG says
So funny, APF!
Not so funny is that he and his fan club come from MY area. The local sewing machine repair-man was very miffed about Bembrika’s activities. Apparently he and his wife used to go into the shop to buy thread or whatever and all was delightful in this multicultural bonding experience, so the sewing machine machine was shocked to find out the truth. Why, it actually put the man quite off Islam and Muslims!
Vimal Mehra says
Good for him it did.
IronyDome says
Uhh, excuse me while I go barf. I’m female, and this @sshole is nowhere near “cutie.” The only good-looking leader in the Middle East is Bibi.
bernie says
I’ve heard some women say that the late Saddam Hussein was handsome when he was young (as per photos of him).
IronyDome says
Ew. Not me.
Judi says
Agreed!!
Champ says
The only good-looking leader in the Middle East is Bibi.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I agree!!!

In another continent and hemisphere:
mary_gonzales says
UK has many residents like him.
Want to fight them? Expell the useless UN, abolish the human rights, then shut down the leftist, kill them if it need to take and start to ban their citizen right, all of them accept the converted kind, and of course deport them unconditionally. Give some countries in middle east either africa choice for the arrival. Believe me, this kind of people doesn’t respect humanity at all…

The photo is CAIR’s version of Islam.
The first image the eye sees is the roses.
To understand Islam one must take a closer look at this photo and see what else grows on this twisting vine, for the rose flower image of Islam soon withers and looses its sweet scent when its victims are securely snared in its torment.
Kerry John says
What are you smoking, dog?
Jay Boo says
TROLL
Jay Boo says
Maybe my troll comment was a bit harsh
The ‘Islam sucks’ approach is fine among like minded folks, but it gets no traction outside in the real world.
It allows Muslims to play the victim.
Islam hides behind image such as:
“In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful” before its verses of the Quran.
Jaladhi says
Australia should send these traitor Muslims back to countries where they came from. Period!!
PJG says
Muslims seem to be able to combine bloodthirstiness and savagery with saccharine sweetness all too easily.
dumbledoresarmy says
Yes.
Y’know – the *Quran* itself , in terms of both style and content, could quite properly be described as a stomach-turning blend of bloodthirsty savagery with “saccharine sweetness”.
Citizen Warrior says
They are everywhere, 30 years ago this problem was just emerging as our stupid governments let in immigrants from the Middle East. Now we have sown the seeds of our own destruction; Politicians will not listen even now, they are only interested in their own terms and the money they can earn once they leave politics – as far as this creature being cute – on another planet maybe; some women are just plain stupid. Even Ted Bundy had his groupies, go figure?
Charli Main says
The uncontrolled mass immigration of Muslims in the guise of “refugees” and “asylum” seekers into Europe and elsewhere should be called out for what it is——-SUICIDE BY ISLAM.
The Islamist says
USA ana NATO dogs who die while fighting for Jews and their man made democracy are called HEROES. Why can’t muslims call our soldiers heroes and martyrs?
Will says
IMHO Terrorism if home grown is treason and he should be shot: end of story.
If he is not an Australian citizen then send him back to whatever Islamic gutter bred him. If they keep it up the death penalty will return.
Andy says
Cut this cutie penis so he can’t enjoy the 60 naked angels in the hell ! ! !
Champ says

Mirren10 says
Actually, warthogs are **better** looking ! 🙂
