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

Muslim thought killed in airstrike on Islamic State making threatening calls to Australian officials

Feb 14, 2016 6:36 pm By Robert Spencer

Many jihadis over the years have been pronounced dead, only to resurface again later. Western governments seem more committed to appearing successful in fighting jihadis in the eyes of the public than in actually doing anything effective to fight them.

Khaled Sharrouf

“From beyond the grave: Australian jihadist previously thought to be killed in Syria ‘made threatening calls’ over attempt to repossess his house,” by Brianne Tolj, Liam Quinn and Lucy Thackray, Daily Mail Australia, February 13, 2016:

Notorious Australian ISIS terrorist Khaled Sharrouf, who was thought to have been killed in drone strikes in Syria last year, has supposedly been making threatening phone calls in an attempt to stop law officials from seizing his home.

Sharrouf has allegedly tried to contact people in Australia on several occasions recently, including a death threat received by a person in Sydney in January, according to the Daily Telegraph.

Law enforcement officials are trying to obtain a home that has been closely linked to the violent terrorist but Sharrouf doesn’t want give up the property.

“Sharrouf thinks it’s his,” an official told the Daily Telegraph.

‘He wants to foster an image that he’s dead.’

Officials said they don’t believe that Sharrouf is dead because of a steady stream of reports received indicating that he is still alive.

They mysterious phone calls come just days after it was reported that Sharrouf’s wife, Tara Nettleton, 31, died from appendicitis complications in late 2015 in Syria when she was unable to access crucial medical treatment, the Sydney Morning Herald said.

The fate of the couple’s five children, all of whom hold Australian passports, and eight-week-old granddaughter is now up in the air.

Tara’s father Peter Nettleton refused to confirm if his daughter had died when contacted by Daily Mail Australia.

Tara died just after she became a grandmother, with her daughter Zaynab, 14, giving birth to her first child – fathered by notorious terrorist and her father’s best friend, Mohamed Elomar, according to The Australian.

She and her five children were believed to have been living in the ISIS stronghold of Raqqa after they abandoned their comfortable life in suburban Sydney two years ago….

    Maybe it’s time for a new religion,[if we must have religion invading our minds?]

    Here is just another example of religious deception and it’s based on novel Indoctrination, especially of young children.

    Indoctrination: An addiction to sugar.

    The new Religion: “ Ninnery “

    Based on: The Nonsense Book of Ninnery.

    Worshipping: The god “Lollypop”

    By numerous people called: Suckers

    The big question is: Will it provoke reactionary violence from all those many others who don’t believe in it as they see it as a Satanic diversion from their own monotheistic “Truths” and Revelations?

    • Wellington says

      Feb 14, 2016 at 7:31 pm

      Not necessary, Kasey, in fact foolish, to excoriate religion in general, as you did, when only one religion, Islam, is a mortal threat to liberty and other good things like equality under the law and women’s rights.

      In the fight against the worst religion of all time, Islam, which needs as broad a coalition as possible to thwart it, why alienate the religious portion of that coalition, for instance Christians, Hindus and Buddhists, by inveighing against religion in general? Yes, tell me why this is smart? And convey to me too how Buddhists, Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, religious Jews, etc. are a threat at all to any kind of freedom that you and I enjoy. I would contend only Muslims and their decrepit religion are a menace here.

      I am not religious in the least and I do like to engage in civilized argument with theists (which is not possible with Muslims aplenty because they will want to harm or kill me, such is the way of the totalitarian creed which is Islam), preferably over a pitcher of beer or two, but to dismiss all religion as you have when only one religion is the true problem, the immediate problem, makes no sense. If you disagree with me here, then cogently dispute what I have just averred.

      Your turn.

      • mortimer says

        Feb 14, 2016 at 10:56 pm

        To Kasey: Agreeing with Wellington. You have not given thought to what the issue is: not ‘religion’ in general, but critical thought and above all, the Golden Rule. Islam obliterates both, but no other does that. The Golden Rule is what makes democracy possible and the absence of the Golden Rule within Islam is what makes Muslims unable to accept pluralism.

      • Kasey says

        Feb 16, 2016 at 6:01 am

        Your first mistake is, that Islam is a religion, which it is not….but is a lethal ideology with a religious appendix, and with many of Allah’s directives for lethal violence and discrimination against all others, and one which hides behind the smokescreen of Islamophobia. And so many require “fear” for control of one’s life with hellfire and damnation for eternity in a hell, which like a heaven, is a figment of human imagination.

        Your defence of religion in general comes from whatever indoctrination of religion you have been subjected to, and your ego identification to whatever particular brand formatted your mind to be receptive of its doctrines and dogmas, and this causes you to defend it..
        Religion does not have a monopoly on ethics and morality. Other societal factors such as rights, responsibilities and consequences need to be taught as well in schools, but in Australia, where kids don’t attend religious instruction classes, they are denied any other classes where the general ethical understanding could be taught, but usually sent to the school’s library to pass the time.

        But these items can be taught well before maturity, but if religious indoctrination was delayed until say after the age of 15 years, far less prejudice and hate would fill the world than that of today. Try this following example:

        Why Do Loving Christians Want Permission To Speak Hate?

        The Atheist Foundation of Australia (AFA) is deeply disturbed that the Australian Christian Lobby (ACL) is demanding a “temporary change” to anti-discrimination laws, so that their propaganda and misinformation about gay Australians, their loving relationships and their children during the mooted plebiscite on marriage equality can’t be found to breach them.

        There is so much manifestly wrong with this shockingly ill-conceived thought-bubble, that we hardly know where to begin:

        If their Christianity was really “all about love”, why is the ACL explicitly seeking permission to talk about other human beings in a way that might breach anti-discrimination laws proscribing hate speech?;
        The ACL is already showing their hand for the plebiscite – tacitly admitting that their planned propaganda campaign will likely vilify and incite hatred against gay Australians, their children and their loved ones;
        Religious organizations and voices are not above secular laws, and any lobbying for such exemptions should be strongly resisted;
        If the only way that the ACL can argue a case against marriage equality is to vilify and incite legally-actionable hatred against gay Australians and their families, they clearly don’t really have any reasoned, valid case against it.
        And all of that that says nothing good about their humanity, ethics, motives or reasoning. Gay Australians and their children deserve far better than to be ‘collateral damage’ in the ACL’s theocratic-ideological campaign.

        AFA President Michael Boyd commented:

        “This is yet another example of religious wishful thinking, that the secular laws that everyone else abides by should not similarly apply to them. We have all seen the horrible consequences of the religious picking and choosing which laws they will or won’t follow. The ACL’s latest plan has the same type of ‘stuff-up’ written all over it.

        If the ACL think that it’s fair and reasonable that they be granted this exemption… as a matter of consistency, would they support a similar exemption so that religions and the ACL could be legally vilified in a similar way?

        We strongly doubt it. That is the essence of religious privilege and arrogance – claiming special treatment for itself and its adherents, that it seeks to deny everyone else.”

        The AFA calls on all Australian governments to seriously consider the horrendous implications of the ACL’s ‘proposal’… before uniformly responding “hell, no!”.

      @Casey
      You must know what Wellington says makes alot of sense. Take him up on his offer if you can, and please reply.

      Islam will not be defeated without those who belong to religion, as most humans claim to belong to one. Do you think it could be that your “religion” is a disdain for religion? What are your answers to the great questions of life? What do you believe? Isn’ that your religion, even if it is agnosticism or atheism?

      And if all of us traditional religious/spiritual kafirs suddenly became non-religious (which in reality is absurd) what do you think would fill that vacuum? Islam? “Might makes right”? Do you really believe the world would be a better place if every single one of us believed there is no god or gods?

      I am sure that Wellington and others posting here can agree with you that many individuals have failed to live up to the ideals of their beliefs, and I would think you can see where many “religious” individuals have done much good at great personal cost to themselves in our world.

      In my opinion this is an existential battle between good and evil. Most of us seek good and truth; this seeking is exactly what Islam forbids at its very core because it requires absolute submission to its machinations.

        Wellington, Mortimer, Dr. Divinity and Keys, re: Kasey

        Thank you for replying so well on my behalf, and I’m sure, on behalf of many others too.

        Incidentally, I am a Christian, I have no problem no problems with or about Hindus, Atheists, Sikhs, Buddhists, whatever.

        Why spewing hatred Kasey? Do you like to be hated? Suggestion: Leave that to the Muslims. The last thing we need in here is intolerance towards one another.

    1 if they bomb seriously like the Russians who are conducting an AirWar this goon won’t get up again
    2. Why is this Terrorists house still standing. The day they took possession of the assert or more correctly once they knew he was working for IS overseas they should have blown it up like Israel does in practice.

    • Rob Porter says

      Feb 15, 2016 at 3:50 pm

      This “goon” is still standing because Barack Obama is not seriously conducting war against ISIS and the gutless West, representing NATO, is simply going along with the disgusting Obama. ISIS should have been fried and flattened long ago, but with America fight in a half-hearted manner – by Obama’s treacherous design – ISIS will continue to gain ground and look invincible when it is not. Treacherous Turkey, a NATO member, is helping Helping ISIS. If Russia ends flattening Turkey I will rejoice.

      As to the Muslim world, Saudi Arabia makes ‘brave’ noises, but when Saddam Hussein was murdering hundreds of thousands, the Arab League, fat bags of wind, did nothing.

      He is just anxious to get caught in the cross-hairs again so he can go for his 72 virgins, though he has already had more than that here and now.
      Muslim is NOT a religion, just a barbaric cult with guns and explosives.

    • Jack HOLAN says

      Feb 14, 2016 at 9:48 pm

      I’m slow but if u r trying to mock your govt for trying to kill this traitor with extinguishing an ideology u r doing a piss-poor job at it. They were trying to kill a traito who represents a threat to civil servants and officers of the government. This %100 unacceptable I don’t think anyone worth their title believes an ideology will be completely irradiated or that gun are the one and only solution. WW2 Nazism was not completely crushed however it no longer presents itself as 1Party 1Leader and Messianic like Cult believing Ein Reich Ein Fork Ein Furher. There is no longer Syndicatelism in Italy, with a Roman complex or aShinto religion and Emperor following. First they were beaten on the battle Field un condionally. Then they were purged of the Arden hard-fast members and supporters and those Parties were outlawed, Mein Kamp was outlaws too. So the right approach totally ignored by this President and places like Georgetown University and Europe. The Russian have lost their awareness for the need to win on the battle-field and to HElLL with complainers. Do see many organization protesting or trying to stop them? No. They can run that game with American and NATO Forces because they let them get away with it and we have a President willing to crush lie and circumvent the Law with Americans but gets very nervous to see Putin

    Notorious Australian ISIS terrorist Khaled Sharrouf, who was thought to have been killed in drone strikes in Syria last year, has supposedly been making threatening phone calls in an attempt to stop law officials from seizing his home.

    Fine – if no one else is going to say it, I will: allahu akbar than death (allah is greater than death). No, wait, I think there’s a simpler explanation: Obama failed and/lied. Again.

    Sharrouf has allegedly tried to contact people in Australia on several occasions recently, including a death threat received by a person in Sydney in January, according to the Daily Telegraph.

    A muslim making death threats? Are you guys as shocked as I am?!?!?

    Law enforcement officials are trying to obtain a home that has been closely linked to the violent terrorist but Sharrouf doesn’t want give up the property.

    “Sharrouf thinks it’s his,” an official told the Daily Telegraph.

    Hmm, I wonder if it has anything to do with the idea that once something becomes possession of a muslim, it becomes his possession forever and no matter what?

    ‘He wants to foster an image that he’s dead.’

    Officials said they don’t believe that Sharrouf is dead because of a steady stream of reports received indicating that he is still alive.

    They mysterious phone calls come just days after it was reported that Sharrouf’s wife, Tara Nettleton, 31, died from appendicitis complications in late 2015 in Syria when she was unable to access crucial medical treatment, the Sydney Morning Herald said.

    Oh, what a f***ing moron. Hey, dumbass, it’s hard to get people to believe you’re dead when you start calling people and threatening to kill them. Don’t they teach you that in goat-f***ing school? They don’t? Because no school should need to teach something that basic, dumbass. It’s basic common sense. Seriously? You can’t play dead to save your life? Jesus f***ing Christ, it takes a special kind of stupid to be losing a war against this lot…

    This is what happens when you send a “child”–namely barack HUSSEIN obama (I won’t say “b*y” lest anyone think this is racist)– to do a man’s job!!!

    Let the Russians have a go at Mr. Sharrouf. I’ll bet he won’t be calling anyone about his house after they’re done with him!!!

  6. Angry Aussie says

    Feb 14, 2016 at 9:28 pm

    Khaled Sharrouf and his mate, Mohamed Elomar, are the charmers who first held up severed heads for ISIS. Sharrouf was under police surveillance and slipped out of the country using his brother’s passport. Sharrouf’s stupid convert wife, Tara Nettleton, went on a family trip to Malaysia with her Australian mother and 5 Islamic spawn. She slipped off to Syria. Now granny is bawling at every opportunity she can to have Auatralian taxpayers cough up the cash to fund the return of hardened severed head holding terrorist children. Who wants their child sitting in a classroom at school next to a devout terrorist? The evil spawn are not innocent children cauggt up in the mistakes made by their parents. They are terrorists too. They have posed alingside poor Yazidi kids that have been taken as ISIS slaves.

    We can hope they all get appendicitis I guess.

      And to boot, he fled to ISIS to avoid serious drug charges. Worked with outlaw bikie gangs mostly Lebanese like him. But he blew cover when money came into the picture. Allah…..sure

      @Angry Aussie. “Who wants their child sitting in a classroom at school next to a devout terrorist?”

      Exactly. Given the articles here about children being used by Islamists to clear mines, blow up cars, carry explosives, etc. One can only imagine what might be thought up for Allah’s glory and the child’s eternal reward.

    It’s looks doubtful that either Sharouf or his wife are dead. Her “death” was probably staged to allow her to resurface with a new identity. The dear old Aussie authorities will stop old ladies and other non-Arabic types at airport scanners and bag swab tests, but fail to see a stream of Jihadists coming and going on flights.
