“Police found propaganda material from both al-Qaeda and Islamic State instructing followers how to launch terrorists attacks, including one titled ‘Pressure Cooker Bomb Back-Pack’. Federal agents believe the boy was planning a suicide attack.” Contrast this reasonably informative report with the one in the Guardian, which doesn’t give any indication of what kind of terrorist the boy was or what kind of plot he was trying to pull off. The mainstream media’s avidity to protect Islam from anyone’s ever getting a negative opinion of it even leads it to leave out key elements of what are supposed to be news stories.
“Teenager pleads guilty to planning Mother’s Day terrorist attack in Melbourne,” by Padraic Murphy, Herald Sun, December 13, 2015:
A YOUNG man has pleaded guilty to planning a terrorist attack on Mother’s Day in Melbourne this year.
The minor — who cannot be named for legal reasons — this morning pleaded guilty in the Children’s Court to one charge of preparing for or planning a terror attack.
Two further charge were withdrawn.
The teen was arrested on May 8.
Federal Agents seized an instruction manual along with a pressure cooker, and nails and screws to be used for shrapnel were found in the teenager’s possession.
Scrapings from match heads and a switch from a set of Christmas lights were also seized.
Police found propaganda material from both al-Qaeda and Islamic State instructing followers how to launch terrorists attacks, including one titled “Pressure Cooker Bomb Back-Pack”.
Federal agents believe the boy was planning a suicide attack.
“It would involve a suicide attack, somebody who’s wearing a backpack,” an agent told an earlier hearing….

Sounds like a HATE CRIME
Where is the MSM?
Man accused of vandalizing a Mosque in California immediately charged with a hate crime
Bridget Ames says
It is only considered a hate crime if the left permit it to be. All other cases are just random.
Jay Boo says
LATEST UPDATE
NPR in North Carolina initially reported this as …
“Man arrested and charged with a hate crime”
NPR has now moderated (at least temporarily) reporting this as …
“Police are investigating this as a (possible) hate crime”
Bamaguje says
“Police found propaganda material from both al-Qaeda and Islamic State instructing followers how to launch terrorists attacks, including one titled “Pressure Cooker Bomb Back-Pack” – Herald Sun.
Yet the newspaper headlines the culprit as “teenager.” Apparently being a teen is the relevant factor driving this terror plot… not being a Muslim.
It is quite possible the “teenager” mistook mother’s day for murders’ day.

Bamaguje said: “… how to launch terrorists attacks, including one titled “Pressure Cooker Bomb Back-Pack” – ………….a Muslim.

Indeed.
Dang language–it can be so tricky. Hence, “Mothers’ D…?” “But I thought it was murder day!”

Vandalizing is always wrong. Charging as hate crime? We don’t know the full details so hard to say, but doing so immediately seems over the top.
What the guy should have done was use a laser pen with a cross pattern to shine on the mosque on Friday night from far off. There are far better ways to irritate people than to vandalize. And if you are far away you can always create a reasonable doubt – you didn’t know it would show up that far away, you were just playing around with some friends and never intended to insult anyone. ( Hehehe who says a kafir can’t use a little taqiya now and again ? )
mike ryan says
It seems that it’s only a hate crime if the victim is Muslim or black. Black-on-white violence, anti-semitism, and Muslim-on-infidel crimes will continue to be classified as “vandalism” or “work-place violence.”

In Australia the radicals came in the mid 2000s, as usual the pip-squeaks running the show kicked the can down the road. They still continue to do so.
mortimer says
RADICAL ISLAMIC CHIC is prevalent among Muslim youth in high schools, but our teachers, social workers, school psychologists and police are not supposed to learn about it, so that they may not see it, investigate it, arrest it and bring it to court to condemn it and punish it. Muslims are hoping to flood the court system while the jihad goes forward.
mortimer says
He planned to use CHRISTMAS LIGHTS to kill Christians. The irony of this is lost on the uninformed Australian Christians, but will be perfectly clear to Muslims.
Westerners need this sort of information about jihad to connect the dots…otherwise they will miss the SYMBOLISM of Islamic jihad EVERY TIME.
Jihad attacks are RITUALS OF DEATH involving KILLING IN THE NAME OF HONOR. JIHAD is a ritualistic ceremony of PREMEDITATED MURDER.

If there be “two Muslims”; one ‘moderate’ and the other ‘radical’ then where is the ‘moderate’ Islam recorded? If it be the relatively tolerant & passive Mekkan surahs as some maunder, those were abrogated by the intolerant & violent revelations received in Yatthrib, and the dichotomy fails. Where else does the self-proclaimed expert find it?
How does the LibTard reconcile his maundery with the congruent pattern of conquest formed by Surahs Al-Anfal & At-Taubah, the various Jihad hadith and Shari’ah?
How shall the LibTard & Ignoramus cntest Sahih Bukhari 1.8.387. 4.52.220, 4.53.386, Reliance o9.0-14 and Hedaya 2. 140-218?

Your comment is very helpful, barbiedoll!

Islam is pure evil. There is no such thing as moderate Islam only wishful thinking on our part. We must expose the truth of Islam at every opportunity.
The days of canned news and celebrity media are numbered.
More and more, people are becoming increasing disenchanted with mainstream media and turning to the alternate media for the truth in reporting.
As they say
“You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time”.
Reporters, by a deliberate policy of misinformation, lies, half truths, misdirection and political correctness are criminally complicit in the continued rape, murder, persecution, genocide and misery of millions of peoples all over the world. Even by their silence they are complicit.
We must spread the word for the sake of our children and grandchildren.
dlbrand says
“We must spread the word for the sake of our children and grandchildren.”
To our peril and to the same of our children and their children we allow the myths, the lies our “leaders” have fed us and continue to attempt to force-feed us, with respect to the “religion” of Muhammad and the adherents to that way.

Islam bring out the best in people…Where are this boys parents?
Sam says
Parents, friends, mosque buddies are all shocked. They had no idea that he was “radicalized” That is where we should leave it without ever uttering the word Islam.
Joseph says
Damn the “minor” can’t be named crap. Anyone convicted, when it comes to a terror incident should be named, with the city and address so there is no confusion .
What about the public’s safety when it comes to the rest of this little shit’s family the family?
What about the public”s safety when this little shit gets out?
Why do we coddle Islam and the Muslims while throwing the public under the bus?
The public isn’t just being “thrown under”, it is being JAMMED under a wheel and then having the bus slowly roll over them.
Guess who is driving the bus?
People who say and think stupid things like “I am Christian and I love the Quran”
Joseph says

You can’t stop people, nations, individuals who hate themselves from committing suicide. Unfortunately!

We must (all) first admit that Islam is shit.
Muhammad is shit.
Allah is shit.
This is the way to get rid of it.
Either we flush it,
or we step in a pile of Islam.
Jay Boo says
Note:
Some Muslims might misread my comments as a personal attack on their honor and who they are as human beings outside of Islam.
I have no problem whatsoever with former Muslims who have washed clean the dirty stains and stench of Islam.
Leave Islam and Gimme a big hug.
Come on now, you know you want to.
dlbrand says
Hey, Jay.
(I think some keys on your keyboard are malfunctioning: I’m certain, what you meant to say was, not that “We must (all) first admit that Islam is sh.. Muhammad is sh..Allah is sh..” but rather “We must (all) first admit that Islam is it!. Muhammad is it!.Allah is it!”
No problem, Jay. anytime, it was nothing, anything I can do to help promote the religion of “the prophet.” [dl])

Today, on the 8’clock news: someone did something. On related news, the aforementioned someone was apprehended by the police for some reason.

Question: Just when did Western, white men collectively become pussies and decide to follow policies designed to further some sick desire to commit collective, cultural suicide?
Think about it.
