Large-scale counterterror raids in Australia. A beheading plot uncovered, and probably more plots were in the offing as well. And so the Muslim victimhood industry swings into action: “Police searching for material linked to Islamic State, al-Qaeda, says man targeted,” by Emma Partridge, Sydney Morning Herald, September 18, 2014 (thanks to Kenneth):
A man targeted during counter-terrorism raids across Sydney said police were searching for any material that could link his family to al-Qaeda or Islamic State.
Raban Alou said he and his family were ordered to get on the ground of their Wentworthville unit just after 4am on Thursday.
He said police were after his brother Kawa Alou, 21, who had recently finished a three-year jail stint for a violent assault.
The family’s home was one of more than a dozen properties raided by 800 police during a major counter-terrorism operation.
Police said they were acting on information that a group was planning to carry out a number of attacks but said they had no specific information
“My little brother was in shock. He’s never witnessed anything like that and then they grabbed my brother, he was on the floor on his stomach and ‘crack’ on the nose. He was bleeding and they dragged him,” Mr Alou said.
“They took out my brother across the road … made us get on our knees,” he said.
“They said on the warrant [that] they are looking for stuff to do with al-Qaeda, IS and … stuff like that.”
He said police targeted a number of his brother’s friends at Westmead, Guildford and Revesby during the dawn raids.
“I know them as well; they never done anything wrong.”
“They [the police] said it was something to do with terrorist activity. I was like, relax.”

At one point police had handcuffed him and his eldest brother but they were later released without charge.
“No one is charged yet; we don’t have nothing to do with anything. They are searching now but there is nothing to find,” he said.
When asked why police had targeted his brother, he said he had no idea.
“I dunno, I got a lot of anger; it’s is a war on Islam just because we grow our beards. They want to label us as a terrorist, or supporters of IS, whatever, that’s up to you.” he said.
He later said he believed his brother may have been targeted because he hung around with “hot heads”.
“He’s just trying to live his life, do his own thing. I know ASIO is on to them [other friends targeted during the raids].”
He said his brother and those targeted had all grown up together and went to nearby schools in Sydney’s western suburbs.
Mr Alou said police had seized all the family’s mobile phones, lap-tops and Play Station 3.
“They are doing forensics stuff now,” he said.
Australian Federal Police and officers attached to the public order and riot squad were still guarding the red brick unit block at 11am as they continued to collect more potential evidence.
Salah says
Many decent and peaceful Muslims will have to accept things like that. That’s a small price to pay for not denouncing loud enough their fellow Muslim terrorists.
Huck Folder says
Yes. Where are the million man marches, around the world, saying: “Not in OUR name!”? Heck, a dozen major cities with a thousand man march each might get obuMBoy and his fellow travellers interest.
Crickets.
All the way down.
CJ says
obama invites them to the White House and gives the jobs
Matt says
They should ask “how long did it take you to get a housing commission house, compered to a born & breed worked all the life payed taxes since they were kids Aussie? doesn’t make sense..
gravenimage says
They don’t sound all that decent and peaceful to me, Salah. They are sneering at police efforts, pretending that they are being targeted “just because we grow our beards”, and even though he is minimizing it, the speaker finally admits that his brother hangs around with “hotheads”—i.e., Jihadists.
bernie says
ZZTop have long beards, and they travel all over the world and play music to entertain people (Have they been to Oz? Probably, I’d guess.) No one worries about them doing suicide bombings or terrorism; beards have little to do with it.
Salah says
“They don’t sound all that decent and peaceful to me”
I agree, but I’ll let the courts decide on that matter. I was talking in general; sooner or later, decent Muslims will have to bear some responsibility for their inaction.
On the other hand, decent Americans, Europeans, etc. will also have to pay a price for their inaction. They have, not only the right, but most importantly the DUTY to bring their respective governments to justice. Failing to do so, they will be guilty of COWARDICE. And they’re going to have to pay a price for this.
Hass says
Makes one proud to be an Aussie when we have an Secrete Service (ASIO).
Majya says
Lie down with dogs you get up with fleas. I don’t believe for one moment there are moderate or peaceful Muslims. Sorry. If there are they are terribly quiet about all the violence. And considering what Muslims have done to other people this treatment is nothing. Sorry. You live by the sword you die by it
Zimriel says
Looking at his scrubby face, I’d think him more likely to be spreading fleas than picking them up.
Eels says
I completely understand your “lie down with a dog” remark. My dog has no fleas however and though I don’t lie down with him much he is certainly a good and happy and faithful companion.
And sometimes I walk him to the pub, have a beer and a bacon sandwitch and walk him home a simple and humble pleasure for both of us. – the dog, the beer, the bacon – anathama to islam.
Wolfgang says
My Russian blue cat is a better human being than most people I know does that count ?…… ( he goes Bush crafting with me ) and drinks beer !
Wtf? says
Two observations about this story. The crap under his chin is not a beard!!!
Secondly this raid has actually made this army of welfare bums get up out of their houses for one day and do something, even if it is to cry to the media. I don’t care what they think about the raids. These same morons would have come out and said he was a lovely boy and we had no idea after he had of beheaded someone!
Max Publius says
Obviously Robert Spencer is driven by anti-beard hysteria. He doesn’t carry any $5 bills either I hear.
Side by side pictures of Robert Spencer and this Islamoclown would have been great for this article.
Max Publius says
Concur, that ain’t no beard!
Huck Folder says
No Max Pubicus?
Jane says
His logic and beard are both sad excuses for the real thing.
Beagle says
“…it’s a war on Islam…”
Or, the belief leading to the motive for nearly every act of terrorism in the world until IS came along and made offensive jihad permissible. Everything is a war on Islam in their minds.
Nope. Move along. Nothing to see here.
citycat says
Muslims should realise that they are heavy duty victims of Islam
Rob says
Are they migrants?
Refugees?
Why are these people in Australia?
Why is Australia so keen to grant citizenship before a person has shown themselves to be hardworking, law abiding and productive.
Once they become Oz citizens and give up their Baluchibad passport they cannot be deported.
Wake up Oz!!

One of the blokes(Anglo-Celt aussie ethnic background) who is a Liturgical Assistant in the Anglican Church I attend has a *much* better beard than that creep could manage to grow.
A magnificent black beard (which is kept nice, clean and combed) that wouldn’t look out of place on a Mizrahi Rabbi or a Greek Orthodox priest..

the war on beards has cost hundreds of thousands of lives.
cry victim..youre running out of excuses. this is scraping the lowest cesspit for one.
Bronson says
“My little brother …”. Oh those mean cops.
STJOHNOFGRAFTON says
These victims feel that the world owes them a living. Unfortunately, the Australian welfare system gives these parasites just that without much accountability. The result is that instead of an attitude of gratitude from the welfare recipient, society gets a welfare recipient with a tendency toward learned helplessness and antisocial behaviour patterns.
ringgo1 says
The same is true here in the US. When Uncle Sugar cuts them off they will be angry!
Mirren10 says
The UK welfare system does *exactly* the same.
75% of mohammedan women here are on benefits, and 50% of the men. As far as they are concerned, the kufr fools are giving them jizya, and they don’t even have to ‘subdue’ us first. Suicidal madness.
gerard says
“it’s is a war on Islam just because we grow our beards”
No! It’s because members of your rotten “faith” behead people you miserable f**k!

And the earth is flat… Islam doesn’t only make you violent but moronic, Islam is a very special form of mental disease.
duh_swami says
Leave my beard alone Delilah. Why are those police always picking on innocent people? Are they just mean and need to take their frustrations out on someone, so they pick on the pious? The pious are picked on all the time, nearly everyone not pious hates them. Not all the pious are terrorists, but all the terrorists are pious. That makes all the pious suspect.
I’m sorry, that’s just the way it is…If the pious can’t take the attention, they should consider moving out.
Mike says
These dregs have been terrorizing the city for years. They have sure become emboldened since the the media did the snow job on the Cronulla riots that made the Muslim thigs into innocent victims. What does David Marr and the other apologists for Islam have to say about the Cronulla graduates? How about our academics? How will they twist this around to make these would-be be-headers into innocent victims of Australian racism? These misfits are the product of welfare largesse, naive immigration programs and a misguided education system that elevates anything and everything alien high above what were once known as Australian values.
allan carr bryan says
Mud sticks, I bet the same sad faced cunt will be the first to shout that ridiculous shout Allah Uakbar when some Aussie innocent is butchered by his Muslim scumbag savages. If you don’t like be under suspicion…fuck off back to your shithole from whence your forefathers came.
Mirren10 says
Robert doesn’t have a full time moderator anymore, but back when Marisol was here, you’d be banned and deleted for using foul language.
*Lots* of people come to this site, to lurk and read, not necessarily to comment. Your unnecessary use of foul language gives those leftards, useful idiots and mohammedans in a mask, an excuse to denigrate this site, and bring us into disrepute.
I have reported your comment to Robert.
Angemon says
The irony here is that growing beards IS a red flag. Muhammad told muslims to grow beards so muslim could differentiate themselves from non-muslims. It’s not mandatory, but if a muslim is devout enough to let his beard grow then chances are he’s devout enough to strike at non-muslim’s necks or fight non-muslims until they convert to islam or pay the jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued.
So saying “they just hate us because we grow our beards” should be comparable with “they just hate us because we carry an armband with a swastika” or “they just hate us because we walk around in KKK hoods” and not with “they just hate us because they don’t like facial hair”.
Steven says
“It is a war on Islam just because we grow our beards”… I didn’t know the muslim women grow their beards….. Is that why they hide in burya to save the embarrassment?? 😛
ringgo1 says
Those beards are a bit further down…
dumbledoresarmy says
No.
It’s sunnah, seemingly, for Muslimahs or Mohammedan Gang Molls/ Camp Followers to depilate the *entire body* – from the neck down to the toes – every twenty days. Allah prefers females to be as hairless (on the body) as Barbie dolls. Only head hair (concealed under hijab) and eyebrows and eyelashes are permitted.
Muslim males are supposed to similarly depilate to prepubescent standard, from neck to toes, every *forty* days. Beard yes (but mustache, no), and head hair if they have it, and eyebrows, are okay; but …all other body hair is, it seems, offensive to allah and he prefers, though not absolutely requiring, that it be removed.
Where did I find this out? By reading Aussie journalist Geraldine Brooks’ book about Muslim females, “Nine Parts of Desire”. She was told the rules about depilation for men and women respectively, by a bunch of Hezbollah wives in a plush hotel suite in Beirut, whom she was visiting in her capacity as journalist. They were all lounging about in negligee and she could see that they were – her phrase – “as hairless as Barbie dolls”.

His brother was hardly a sweet lil innocent gambolling lamb.
“He said police were after his brother Kawa Alou, 21, **who had recently finished a three-year jail stint for a violent assault.** [my emphasis – dda]”.
dumbledoresarmy says
I just hope the police took dogs along.
And that every person in the household, and the entire house, was sniffed for traces of 1/ illicit drugs and 2/ explosives.
Wtf? says
Isn’t that animal cruelty? But still it’s a job that has to be done. Perhaps Razorbacks could be trained specifically for Muslim harassment? Haha
(For non Australians a Razorback is a wild pig)
Bezelel says
Arkansas calls them that fer sher and since pigs are trained to sniff out truffles I dont see why they couldn’t be used for other substances. I dont even care if they are good at it.Just take them to the suspects house and turn them loose inside for a couple of hours at least.
Will says
Gee!!! and his little brother didn’t get his head sawn off.
How lucky is he?
Must be so bad being a Muslim . Perhaps he should apostasies?
Or go back to Islam’s Sewer!!(any Sharia country)
paddy says
It’s the same old story. A complete uneducatede MORON who has no sense of self and the importance of social cohesion. Somebody who is completely lost in the free world and unable to reconcile the way his parents (HIS PARENTS) and peers are incapable of coming even close to how well a non-muslim community can work.
Yet another case of muslim malignant narcissism.
mortimer says
Yes, strutting toxic narcissism combined with the MASTER RELIGION and divine authority and DIVINE COMMANDS to terrorize and behead!
Heil Mohammed!
David says
“it’s is a war on Islam just because we grow our beards.”
Islam…attracting the brightest and the best.
Kasey says
Don’t ever mention the abrogating Medina verses of the Koran that the Jihadists follow to abrogate any peaceful verses, just mention the prejudicial
attitude from seeing beards to dislike or fear Muslims. What sort of mentality do these people really have based on hatred, envy, fallen supremacy of the past, and ignorance. So called moderates will never speak out against the other from fear of retribution. If they ever do their deads here, for sure all hell will break loose.

Australia: “It’s is a war on Islam just because we grow our beards”
……………………………..
Ah—right. And that’s why Rabbis, Greek Orthodox Priests, and old hippies are under suspicion of terrorism, as well…sarc/off
But, as noted, Muslims growing beards—unless they are of the stylish, neatly trimmed goatee variety, *are* a pretty reliable sign of a Muslim taking his Islam damn seriously—and that means Jihad.
More:
Mr Alou said his mother, Hamida, and brothers Hozan and Kawa were all escorted out of their Department of Housing unit on Lane Street.
……………………………..
“Department of Housing unit”—I’m not intimately familiar with the Australian system, but that certainly sounds like what we coyly call “subsidized housing” here in the States.
In other words, these guys may be old enough to grow full beards, but they are all on the dole—plotting JIhad on the Australian taxpayer’s dime.
Wolfgang says
Yes , it is subsidized housing, in the state of NSW , if you are low income or on welfare payment you get put on the housing commision list for a very cheap house or unit , the rate used to be 1/10 of normal rent, say you get from centerlink ( federal unemployment dept for non Aussies ) $350.00 or so then your “”rent is about 35 bucks per week , trick is of course to stay uneemployed to get the cheap rent, get a job and hey presto the dept charges close to market price.
Phrannymoo says
LOL..that’s not a beard..that’s bum fluff..but no it’s because you worship satan and like to saw peoples head off with a knife and eat their organs, drink their blood that we have a problem with!..Or is the the wanting to take over every country on the planet that doesn’t belong to you and inject Sharia Law on infidels..Or is it the pedophilia, bestiality and total disregard for woman’s rights, human rights, ignorance, hatred, greed and selfishness and total destruction of anything you touch….gosh..can’t really say why your death cult is so unappealing.
Stan Pierce says
Now you can understand the reason for the Crusades. Nearly all the Christians in North Africa and the Holy Land were slaughtered by this hate-faith before the Crusaders got there. And it was touch and go in Vienna in 1683. Now we have to go through it all again in the 21st century. Incredible.
voegelinian says
Yes, and Christian Europe waited over 300 years to fight back. In the meantime, not only did Muslims oppress and slaughter Christians in the Middle East, but they also rampaged across North Africa (which had become an extension of Christian civilization across the Mediterreanean) slaughtering Christians and pagan Berbers (and “converting” thousands out of terror and the Stockholm Syndrome of “if you can’t beat them join them”), then they assaulted the Iberian peninsula (Spain) and took it too, extending their rapacious rule like jagged bloody fangs right into the Western heart of Europe (luckily held back from going beyond Spain by the coalition forces under Charles Martel). Also in the meantime, some 150 years before Europe got its excrement together to finally try to defend the Holy Land with an organized Crusade, Muslims assaulted Rome, and Pope Leo IV had to have fortified walls built around the Vatican — while up and down the coastline from the Levant to Greece to southern what is Yugoslavia today to Italy to Sicily to the French Riviera, Muslims perpetually landed from ships to conduct terror raids (razzias) on villages inland; not to mention that Muslims turned the Mediterranean into a bloody shark tank of piracy and plunder.
After one reads Western history and realizes that the story of Western Civilization is really a story about the ongoing millennial Terror & Trauma of relentless Mohammedan violence in myriad ways, at some point one experiences the epiphany that perhaps the main reason for the modern West’s PC MC is a mass collective PTSD — a href=”http://hesperado.blogspot.com/2010/01/western-amnesia.html”>Post-Terroristic Stress Disorder.
And now, after a 300-year vacation during which for various complex historical reasons the Muslim world receded into a morass of corruption and degradation while the West from the 16th century forward blossomed (with each passing century progressing exponentially) into a spectacular ascendancy of global superiority on every level imaginable, our perennial Enemy has come back from out of our pleasantly Orientalist memories we all but forgot (repressed) to haunt us and hunt us down like zombies in a living nightmare that is metastasizing into graphic bloody reality all around us.
voegelinian says
One link didn’t work there. Let’s try that again:
“…perhaps the main reason for the modern West’s PC MC is a mass collective PTSD — a Post-Terroristic Stress Disorder. “
Nina Hirsch says
As much as I don’t like Vladimir Putin, his comments below, you’ve got to love:
If minorities prefer Sharia Law, then we advise them to go to those places where that’s state law. Russia does not need minorities. Minorities need Russia and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell discrimination.
That’s what we need in the West, iron resolve.
sam says
So where is their protest marches, when innocent people are beheaded under the cry off Allah, for being an infidel. I see no Muslim protesting the ISIS kilings, but when suspected terrorists are arrested due to a long ongoing police operation, they complain, Poor Us, PFTTTTT!! What ever, go back to the Country Islam originated from and practice you bullshit pedo religion there..
