Jul 16, 2015 10:18 am By Robert Spencer

Bulletproof vests“The man’s baggage contained the 17 undeclared ballistic vests and a black hoodie featuring an Islamic creed known as the Shahada, while two more vest were found in unaccompanied baggage.” The Shahada is the Islamic profession of faith: “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.” Saying it in Arabic in front of Muslims makes one a Muslim.

“Australian Border Force seize 17 illegal bullet proof vests and hoodie with Islamic logo in raid at Greenacre and Ashcroft,” The Daily Telegraph, July 16, 2015 (thanks to Jon):

Raids have been carried out on two Sydney properties as part of an investigation by the Australian Border Force (ABF) into the importation of 17 undeclared bulletproof vests.

Performance-enhancing drugs, a flick knife, air pistols and illicit tobacco were found and seized by ABF and NSW police during the raids in Ashcroft and Greenacre on Monday.

It’s the result of investigations that were launched in mid June, when a man and woman arrived into Sydney International Airport from Lebanon via Dubai.

The man’s baggage contained the 17 undeclared ballistic vests and a black hoodie featuring an Islamic creed known as the Shahada, while two more vest were found in unaccompanied baggage….

    To countervail this, adjust your sights so the point of impact is a bit high and use a six o’clock hold on the chin — or enfilade the terrorist and direct fire into the arm-holes.

    This means that there are definitely 17 Jihadists that they should be looking for. M

    I am not trying to proselytize .
    I have no illusions about being perfect or pious or sinless.

    But Jesus said we are all sinners and have fallen short….Im sure you know it.

    That being said , how can people who murder and maim ( like the goofballs
    blowing up a poor baby ) think they are fit for heaven ?

    Seems a “righteous” God would say beat it.

    And thats what we are told as believers in Jesus.
    We cant EARN our way,

    Sure changes things.

    Clearly this means that Australia is so hostile towards muslims that they need to bring in bulletproof vests just so they can feel safe… sarc./ off

    Hi! it seems to me that you believe in Jesus. Not sure if you have kids or not, but let’s say you do. So if you told and brought up your kid at a young age, there would a great chance that your kid too would believe in Jesus. The same here. As former Muslim my self, we were thought at the a young age to hate the Jews, Christians are dirty, etc….m

    Ashcroft is only a couple of suburbs away from Liverpool.
    Liverpool has a large population, and recently has shown signs of growing radicalism among certain groups there.

    Recently some islamic councils in Australia refused to attend an event help by the Australian Federal Police to break fast with them, stating that they feel they shouldn’t eat at the same table as the people who are harassing them by raiding their homes.
    This raid was a very good thing.

    It looks like jihad training equipment.
