“In the boy’s case, he was reportedly given a gym membership, given religious guidance and had regular visits and phone calls from community contact police.” What? He got a gym membership and he still tried to wage jihad against Infidels? Doesn’t he know that the Qur’an says to wage war against and subjugate non-Muslims, unless they give you a gym membership?
(Note for the incurably literal-minded: it doesn’t really say that.)
“Boy, 16, arrested over ‘Anzac Day terror plot’ was in deradicalisation program,” by Rachel Olding, Sydney Morning Herald, April 26, 2016:
A 16-year-old boy arrested over an alleged Anzac Day terrorism plot had been in a government-run deradicalisation program for about a year.
The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, chose not to appear in Parramatta Children’s Court on Tuesday for a brief mention two days after his arrest.
His lawyer, Zemarai Khatiz, entered a not guilty plea to one charge of doing an act in preparation or planning for a terrorist act, an offence that carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Zemarai Khatiz, the lawyer for the 16-year-old terrorist suspect.Mr Khatiz said a psychologist with more than 38 years’ experience would assess the boy in prison this week to support an application for bail on Friday.
The boy was arrested near his Auburn home Sunday afternoon, just hours after police allegedly intercepted an online chat he was having with a man overseas in which he mentioned trying to obtain a firearm and targeting an Anzac Day event on Monday.
He was not considered a “prime target” for counter-terrorism officers but had been on their radar for about a year.
The boy’s father was interviewed anonymously by The Australian in December about a deradicalisation program in which his son had been placed after extremists allegedly tried to involve him in a foiled plot in May last year.
He said his son was bullied at school and spent a lot of time in his room. However, he spoke about the dramatic progress the boy had made after ASIO and the police intervened, including the boy starting an electrician’s apprenticeship and going to English-language sermons at a mosque with his father.
“[It is] the worst thing, but also the best thing … because, potentially, it enabled him to come out of that shell, or wherever he was, and see that he could get it out,” the father said of the program.
The article lauded the government’s National Disruption Group, a $15 million inter-agency taskforce set up by the federal government and led by the Australian Federal Police.
Authorities can refer potential extremists to the diversionary program, and a suite of agencies come up with a tailored program for the individual.
In the boy’s case, he was reportedly given a gym membership, given religious guidance and had regular visits and phone calls from community contact police….

Rev g says
Gym probably didn’t have free weights, that was the problem.
Westman says
He seems to be another budding terrorist with the IQ of an empty ashtray. All the empty ashtrays, where do they all come from? All the empty ashtrays, where do they all belong?
I feel a song coming on….

As a parent, In would be devastated. As a Muslim parent, I just might be proud. They KNOW what their book says, so they can’t be surprised.
TheBuffster says
I wonder if this program works for at least some of the jihad-prone youth?
But if a kid has read the Koran and the reliable hadith collections, no government-approved imam is likely to be able to convince him that what’s there isn’t there or doesn’t mean what it clearly means. If the kid knows what a Muslim “hypocrite” is, then he’ll have that label ready in his mind to identify any imam who soft-sells Islam as being one of those.
And any Muslim who is collaborating with the kaffirs *is* a kaffir, by the vice of being a traitor to pure Islam.
For a bunch of Kaffirs and Kaffir-collaborating Muslims to turn a budding jihadist’s mind back to the light side is going to take extraordinary insight and astounding “people skills” – something I’m not convinced teams of bureaucrats are likely have.
“Authorities can refer potential extremists to the diversionary program, and a suite of agencies come up with a tailored program for the individual.”
A suite of agencies. Government agencies. A whole suite of them. Tailoring a program for the individual. Bureaucracy at its finest.
My eye-muscles don’t have the strength to roll as much and as far back in my head as that idea requires.
Angry Aussie says
All non Australians can Google Lakemba, Auburn, Bankstown, Narre Warren, and read up about the growing clusters and past jihadists who have devoted themselves to Allah. Add Logan to the mix (developing radical area in Queensland), and soon to be Bendigo. These people are aided by the laws in Australia and will not stop. They are given funding, at taxpayers expense, to deradicalise. Last year it was 640 million. The government is in denial.
Thank God we have a new political party, Australian Liberty Alliance, who will run in next election. I for one will be voting for them. They understand Islam and it’s all encompassing tentacles that aim to destroy democracy.
No Fear says
Grew up in Auburn, had enough, so joining ALA.
JMB says
ALA Is Australian Liberty Alliance, I had never heard of them prior to this, yes their policy is definitely all about stopping the mosques and generally protecting this country from Islam.
Peggy says
Also please put Australian Christians and One Nation as next preferences. Put Labor or Liberal and especially the Greens last.
I will be voting this way.
Vickie Janson was involved with the Q Society of Australia and has formed Australian Christian party. She is passionate about stopping Islaminisation of Australia.
Here’s their FB page.

Please give them serious consideration as well and if not first place them second if they have a candidate running. One Nation is a good option as well if they have a candidate in your electorate.
JMB says
Thank you Peggy for sending out the right message for (concerned) voters here in Oz.
Enrico says
Pagan Inferiority complex. Introducing that with the violently supremacist Islam is a recipe for terror. ‘Westerners’ ( Liberals, the Left, Protestants, Vatican II sect) can not subdue that kind of fanatical Muslim terrorists with foolish deradicalization programs, or apeace them with money or whatever, because Muslims are bigger criminals than they are.
ECAW says
This is two ANZAC Days in a row. Someone needs to get it across to the folks in Auburn that all those jihad verses in the Koran only referred to the battles Mohammed happened to be fighting (for defensive purposes only) at the time. I can’t find a damn thing to justify the claim in the Islamic tradition before a hundred years ago but there must be something otherwise the likes of Mehdi Hasan, Craig Considine (ugh) and all those smiley imams wouldn’t assure us that it is so.
And they’d better do it before the next ANZAC Day. The cops can’t rely on being lucky forever.
dumbledoresarmy says
I hope someone in the RSL is paying attention.
Personally, if I were a jihadist an Anzac Day parade or ceremony is the *last* thing I’d try attacking. Too many old and not-so-old soldiers with combat instincts smouldering just under the surface, and there’s usually weaponry of some sort around, and these days, there are dogs and their handlers who’ve retired after spending years in the badlands of Afghanistan or Iraq.
Here’s a picture in my head, for the benefit of any fellow-Aussies with an artistic bent.
“The Battle of Woop-Woop, Anzac Day 2018, Lasted Exactly Thirty Seconds”.
Here’s the scenario.
Mohammed Ahmed Ali, age 15, ‘refugee’ settled in outer Woop Woop somewhere in deepest country Australia, listens to the sermons in the mosque; listens to his dad ranting about the evil Kuffar; watches the videos on youtube; and decides to attack the local Anzac Day ceremony. He sharpens up his knife and loads his pistol and puts on his explosive vest and sneaky-sneaky-sneaky off he goes to the Dawn ceremony.
BUT the local retired EDD (Explosive Detection Dog) (who is taking part in the ceremony and parade) gets wind of him and barks the special warning bark and chomps him on the bum just as he’s about to get going with his knife. The Iraq and Afghanistan vets, also present, cued by the dog, leap into action, followed by a brace of enormous hairy Vietnam Vets whose combat spidey-senses have activated in a split-second; and before he can even yell ‘allahu-akbar’ or flip the switch our would-be jihadist has been immobilised, stripped, disarmed and defused.
Third-last panel; mohammed ahmed ali stripped to his under-daks and trussed like a chicken, bound and gagged and tied up to a tree, glaring impotently whilst the Anzac Day ceremony resumes.
Second-last panel: mohammed-ahmed-ali being dumped into the paddy-wagon and taken away.
Final panel: the Kuffar victory celebration at the pub, with the EDD sitting on the counter devouring a nice big bone.
Angemon says
I wonder what his program buddies are up to…
JMB says
Laughing there heads off about the gullibility of the Australian authorities.
herb planter says
Never fear Obama will save you!
mortimer says
This unnamed teenage jihadist must have been reading books written by Saudi citizens that were published cheaply in Pakistan for distribution to jihadis around the world and financed by Soddy Barbaria.
Thank you, Soddy Salafia.
Mirren10 says
Well, Mortimer, you’re always banging on about ‘de-programming’ mohammedans.
Doesn’t seem to work, does it ?
duh_swami says
No one can be ‘DE-programed as ;long as they cling to the belief that Allah is God…and the Quran is its holy words good for all time…For most of the pious you need a big eraser for that one…
Jay Boo says
Strangely, as soon as I saw that article headline I thought about Mortimer for some reason.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
Has anybody ever seen the curriculum of one of these deradicalization programs? That’d be telling. When the step-by-step goes from the Holy Ko-Ran to Jihad mass murder, that’s clear. When it’s meant to go from Jihad mass murder back to the Holy Ko-Ran, where does it go in that book? I’d like to see a map of that.
ECAW says
I would have thought that the central plank to any deradicalisation programme must be an authoritative refutation of the idea that Mohammed’s calls to jihad were for all time rather than just for for his current battles. But I’ve never found one. Until I do I’ll assume that the jihadis have the correct understanding of Islam and that the peaceful Muslims are just lax Muslims or as Mohammed called them, hypocrites.
Shane says
Yes, death for these budding jihadis is the best alternative; as it is expensive to house them in prison for life, and while in prison they can recruit more jihadis.
bridgette says
These kids are radicalized in diapers and beaten into submission. There is no cure for brainwashing except some metal to their evil heads.
UNCLE VLADDI says
Quick! Appeasement didn’t work, so appease them ever harder, Turncoat!
JMB says
And the latest news from Sydney Australia. A shooting in a shopping center car park in the muslim dominated suburb of Bankstown has left one man dead and two other persons injured. It is definitely a Muslim gang related crime.
