Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Australia: Muslim charged with plotting jihad terror attack on home soil

Oct 17, 2014 11:18 pm By Robert Spencer

KreuziHe had machetes, knives, balaclavas, military fatigues, fuel, corks, and a firearm. Clearly his jihad was dropping off the kids at school. Note his upraised index finger in the photo: that is the sign of adherence to the Islamic monotheism, and to the Islamic State as well. The Oklahoma beheader is in a photo making the same gesture.

“Australian man charged with planning terror attack,” AFP, October 17, 2014:

BRISBANE, Australia — A man arrested in Australian counterterrorism raids in September is facing fresh charges of preparing a terrorist attack on home soil, police said on Friday.

Agim Kruezi, 22, was initially accused of recruiting, funding and sending jihadist fighters to Syria after he was detained in Brisbane on September 10.

He is now facing a new charge of committing an act in preparation for a terrorist act by transporting a firearm, which carries a maximum sentence of life in jail, authorities said.

Kruezi was also Friday charged with possessing machetes, knives, balaclavas, military fatigues, fuel, corks, and a firearm in connection with preparing for a terrorist act.

“These additional charges are as a result of ongoing investigations into the man’s activities including the alleged preparation and recruitment for incursions into Syria to fight,” federal police said in a statement.

The additional charges came after Australia last month raised its terror threat level to “high” after years on “medium” on growing concern about jihadists returning from fighting in Iraq and Syria.

The case against Kruezi and Omar Succarieh, 31, who was also arrested in the Queensland operation, were adjourned to December 19 after a hearing in Brisbane Magistrates Court.

Another man — Louis Maestracci, 32, who was charged with funding jihadists traveling overseas to fight after a separate Brisbane raid in late September — also had his case adjourned to the same date….

    Hey we are not at war with islam & company–right, obama? But they’re certainly at war with the world!

    And I always thought that the raised index finger meant “Jesus is the Way” …not this evil garbage! Disgusting islam.

      Coming from the land that hygiene forgot… where toilet paper is considered a technological advance (quran 2 ply would work best!) You don’t even want to know where that finger has been!!

        The Saudi Royal Family as late as 1976 imported over a 1,000 lavatories for their comfort. Till this time the women were obliged to pee where they stood and their hand maidens sprinkled with rose water. I gather the men wiped their backsides with the left hand and ate with the right. Washing in between in the desert?

    Australia must be first in exposing the genocidal lie of calling Muslims as Palestinians. It was perpetrated by Arafat to make Israel forever illegally occupying Israel – the cause of all terrorism today.

    To understand radical Islam is to know that Moslems sadly have no assurance of getting to Heaven unless Mohammad intercedes for them. And that according to the Quoran and Hadith is only after suffering the fires of hell first.Significantly the only exception is if a Islamic follower dies in Jihard and becomes a martyr. Then he apparently goes straight to Paradise and the promise of 70 virgins. If that is the only hope of eternal salvation no wonder so many young men are being radicilised into ISIS and encouraged to commit violent acts of terrorism. Australia is right to take his seriously

    “corks”?
    IIRC you burn these at one end to apply soot to your face to blacken it. At least in WW2 you did. The mind boggles about “why?” now. perhaps they are chastity belts” for his favourite goats/donkeys/sheep etc.? I should say that I am sorry but I cannot as my contempt runs so deep.

      I wondered about the corks too. Then I realised he’d need to take his finger out of his backside long enough give the islamic salute and would need a replacement.

    Islam is pure evil…I was shocked when I first read the Quran…

    How could a billion people be duped by this nonsensical book..? And all the time I had thought it was, really, “the greatest literary work in Arabic”….it is not!

    The judicial penalty should be death…not imprisonment. These bastards thrive in prison.
