He has two wives? Isn’t polygamy illegal in Australia?
And he is a disability pensioner, but he is well enough to recruit for jihad? UK jihadi Anjem Choudary said in February 2013:
“We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t it? So this is normal situation. They give us the money. You work, give us the money. Allah Akbar, we take the money. Hopefully there is no one from the DSS (Department of Social Security) listening. Ah, but you see people will say you are not working. But the normal situation is for you to take money from the Kuffar (non-Muslim) So we take Jihad Seeker’s Allowance.”
“Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29).
“Six years’ jail for terrorist recruiter who sent jihadis to Syria,” by Simone Fox Koob, The Australian, September 2, 2016:
A western Sydney terrorist recruiter, a disability pensioner with two wives, has been sentenced to six years jail for helping send young Australian jihadis to Syria to fight.
Hamdi Alqudsi held up one finger and called out “I love you” to his relatives in a Parramatta courtroom yesterday at his Supreme Court sentencing.
A jury found the 42-year-old guilty of seven counts of performing services between June and October 2013 for persons with the intention of entering Syria to engage in armed hostilities. At least two of the men — Caner Temel and Tyler Casey — died fighting overseas.
Alqudsi’s wives quietly sobbed and several of his stepchildren watched as judge Christine Adamson handed down a sentence of eight years, with a fixed non-parole period of six years.
He will be eligible for release in July 2022.
Much of the trial focused on intercepted calls and text messages seized by police that detailed conversations between Alqudsi and Australian fighter Muhammad Ali Baryalei discussing accommodation for the men, the price of weapons and conditions for jihadi fighters.
The Syrian war was referred to as a “soccer game” that required “A-League players”, and Alqudsi as the coach.
Alqudsi did not give evidence until a sentencing hearing last month, where he broke down in tears and told the court: “I love Australia. I always have … I am not a terrorist man.”
His defence lawyer argued that his client wanted to help protect innocent civilians stuck in the civil war and was arranging the travel to war-torn Syria for humanitarian reasons.
Justice Adamson said she was convinced Alqudsi was a “central point of contact” for the men and “took upon himself the role of commander”, adding that the most valuable service he provided was connecting each of the men to Baryalei, which meant they could cross the border from Turkey to Syria.
She accepted the prosecution’s analogy that the offender was the “centre of a wheel in which the seven men and Mr Baryalei were the spokes”.
In considering sentencing, Justice Adamson was “not persuaded that the offender is either contrite or remorseful” and did “not regard his prospects of rehabilitation as good”….
Why would he be contrite or remorseful about serving Allah and Islam?

marina says
“I love Australia. I always have … I am not a terrorist man.”
Hope the court wont let him out early for such heartfelt patriotism
J D S says
What is this two wives …..6 years carp…What kind of sentence is that?
Both he and his two will establish should have been deported…How much more stupid can the courts get…..That Is Australia but the whole of the West is doing the same.If one of us non Muslims had two wives and had done what this man did We would be put under the jail
EVA LORENS says
Agreed
Angemon says
I had no idea Australia allowed polygamy.
June says
It’s not legal here but we have weak, PC government frightened of being called Islamophibic.
There is no such thing as moderate muslims.
There are jihadistd and sleepers.
Sleepers are all waiting to get big enough numbers of muslims and mosques to take over.
They are openly telling us that, but we have western governments and leaders and trendies denying what is right in front of them.
harbidoll says
Frightened? PC? Not!, like Hil. Clinton, its All about the MONEY!!. The PC raciest stuff was created by THEM to hide behind .
Shane says
The West has to crack down on these Jihadis and sentence them to longer sentences, take away their welfare, and deport them if they are immigrants. We have to remove the Islamic Jihadi garbage from our countries.
EVA LORENS says
Yes. We do. Stop Islamization and No creeping Sharia.
JMB says
Australia does not allow polygamy. (But the government is debating same sex marriage). It normally works like this. They have an official wife. The other 3 may or may not be married to him on a trip back to Lebanon but they (the wives) will live at the taxpayers expense as “Supporting parents” or on any other government benefit they can find in order to get a free ride and rip off taxpayers.
As for the disability support pension, it is very generous and far too easy to get here in Australia. All you need is a compliant Muslim Dr to sign a bit of paper to say you can not work any more than 30 hours per week. But note, I have no problem with a person in a wheelchair getting this benefit, that is what this pension is there for.
Not, this is not the only bit of Muslim scum who has carried out his Jihad duties while living on this type of pension.
Of course he loves Australia, he gets a free ride, no military service obligations and the general good life at our expense.
Note, Newly elected One Nation Senator Pauline Hanson is calling for a Royal Commission into Islam in Australia. All I can say is “Bring it on”.
harbidoll says
A “kept woman” or concubine/sex slave can only produce BASTARD children! Call it like it is, even if 1/3 of the entire population is doing it.
Carolyne says
My husband was an Orthopedic Surgeon. When someone came to him (At that time there were no MUslims where we lived) for disability, he would do a thorough exam, including looking at the hands to see if they were soft and had not done physical work, And if in a wheelchair, their shoes to see if they had been walking and the wheelchair tires to see if there was any wear.
As to polygamy, Only one wife who is able to produce a marriage certificate would be a way to cut down on polygamy payments. Is there no penalty for fraud in Australia?
Michael Copeland says
The spineless British government method is to pretend the extra wives are “single mums” (a transparent fiction). They receive housing, income, and so on.
Of course, Islam does not have “single mums”. Such women would be stoned to death.
Eirene says
Australia does not allow polygamy (according to Nick Xenophon’s response to Pauline Hanson some days’ ago, when she bemoaned the fact that Muslims were arriving in Australia with multi wives and receiving welfare handouts!) How dreadfully politically incorrect – but absolutely true. What intrigued me about this report is the “stepchildren”
mentioned. Are the many progeny of this man now being described as “step-children” for devious purposes? Or am I just being mean and nasty?!
nicu says
I have heard many Muslims quickly get the disability status , while Australians must fight for it 🙁
They can marry kids and have several wives – it’s called ” religious freedom ” – of course crosses must be removed …
Wellington says
“Disabled Muslim?” Frankly, I think this term redundant, rather as is the term “radical Islam.”
June says
They are all disabled.
By islam.
JMB says
True, but they are mainly enabled by Islam to be above the law in Australia, get all the benefits of being a minority as well as to get a free ride off the taxpayer.
harbidoll says
google what famous people said about Islam, they all came to that same conclusion!
skep says
Yes -mentally disabled and inbred as well.
Anthony says
What i’d like to know is how Alqudsi got into the country and his two wives? He certainly didn’t come under the skills program as he has none. Was he part of the overly generous refugee program or did he arrive under family reunion?
Are his ‘two wives’ both receiving welfare benefits? How much has this disgusting parasite cost the Australian taxpayer? And how many more like him are there?
islam the religion of killers says
Not only has the two wives getting the pension but all the kids are being supported, adopted children are past around the muslim community (under the stand we are bringing up these poor children with dead parents)
There is a situ where the taxpayer is supporting 21 woman & kids the “father” set the family up here then went off to Syria and got himself shot.
This is 4 woman for the rest of their lives & 17 kids for as long as they can stay on the benefit …
Anthony says
According to the Telegraph Alqudsi came to Australia from Palestine with his parents and siblings when he was 11. So a refugee.
He worked as a security guard and then as a packer at Woolworths where, in 2010, he injured his back and neck for which he received workers’ compensation.
Sibila says
It would be good to present those costs, family by family with NO prospects and NO intentions to contribute to Australian community .. hmmmm except if the prominent positions within the lawmaking system are promised and guaranteed to them for the sole purpose of sabotaging the very system and for the purpose of advantaging Islam.
Wouldn’t it be better and more just to sponsor and to support talented kids from impoverished countries around the world by bringing them and their families to Australia, instead of all those West- heaters and liars, ineffectives and injurious drones?
Undaunted says
Speaking of Muslims behaving badly, today is the 12th anniversary of the takeover of Beslan School #1 in North Ossetia, Russian Federation. Three days later 333 Russians, including many children, were dead or dying. If you wonder why that’s important to you, check the link below:

johnj says
The kids were probably part of this:
“Mohammad and Ibraim Omar, aged 27 and 25, own the Lakemba family day care businesses with nearly 600 home providers of family day care on their books.”
“The Lakemba family day care services at the centre of the alleged scam have collected more than $27 million in Commonwealth childcare benefits and rebates since 2012.” Nice

Of course it was the Regulator’s fault – not the criminals – hey.
Champ says
Alqudsi did not give evidence until a sentencing hearing last month, where he broke down in tears and told the court: “I love Australia. I always have … I am not a terrorist man.”

They sure got chutzpah.

Of course he loves Australia. It lets him have 2 wives, sponge off the tax payer getting money for nothing, and is priming itself for a muslim takeover.
Alvin Woods says
Off topic but please Mr Spencer make a post on this one
http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/muslim-family-accused-of-being-terrorists-on-trip-to-seaside-town-a3334916.html
Front page news on the London’s standard. Family were called “terrorists” by one man and “people stared at them” in this extremely rough working class East Midlands sea side town.
Btw, the locals hate anyone who is not from this area, the pubs at night are rough as hell. This was total political jihadism. Provocation

“As we went to the beach again, a lot of people continuously stared at us.”
That sounds like a useful tactic: worth spreading around.

In the mohammedan world it’s not what you look like but how much ready cash you can find to buy a wife.

Justice Christine Adamson did well to be skeptical, but without a thorough knowledge of the jihad doctrine, how can Western jurists be expected to spot a terrorist?

Pam Geller Claims Clinton Wants To Shut Down Breitbart: ‘This Is The Sharia’
Notorious anti-Muslim activist Pamela Geller claimed Wednesday that Hillary Clinton is hell-bent on shutting down conservative news site Breitbart, enforcing “the Sharia” in the process.

That is true. I heard her say that Breitbart and others like it would be shut down.

Sheikh Ali says
I was a Muslim and embarrassed and had a guilty feeling that I was following a death cult. But abandoning that cult means death. Fortunately through a friend I came to overcome my dilemma by adapting the Sanatana way of life. I didn’t change my name, customs, etc. and began living a civilized life. For those who want to follow me see http://ilovesanatanadharma.blogspot.in/
billybob says
I read that page you linked to. Looks like a far better way of life and spirituality than Islam for sure.
Carolyne says
If you didn’t change your customs, how did you become an infidel? Islamic customs are what make you a Muslim.
Sheikh Ali says
By custom I meant fasting during Ramzan, if I don’t do it others will get suspicious, similarly going to mosques and acting as though very devoted.
Matthieu Baudin says
“… He has two wives? Isn’t polygamy illegal in Australia?…”
Get ready for the political non-event of this century, when Muslims in Western Countries including southern hemisphere satellites such as Australia and New Zealand, find themselves witnessing the case for the ‘legalisation’ of Polygamy – tearfully maintaining that only complete legal recognition denoting equality with monogamous marriage can possibly re-mediate the great hurt and discrimination experienced by this poor downtrodden minority. Community discussion about the matter will then be curtailed, largely informally, in the grounds that such discussion would prove intrusive and unfairly focus a spotlight onto the lives of ‘ordinary’ families already living informally within defacto Polygamist arrangements.
This type of process and reasoning has a familiar ring to it; and with our current widespread indoctrination with the ‘anything goes’ notion, our societies are destined to hand over their silverware, sacrificing a core social institution – monogamous marraige – which has been a bed rock for high levels of family and social stability, and has anchored the relative equality and rights that women have achieved relative to their menfolk.
Peggy says
Yeah, this man is so disabled that he needs two wives and God know how many children.
So what exactly is his disability?
Even people in wheel chairs work. There is a guy in a wheel chair at RSPCA working on reception and he does quite well. He is even able to clean up after the “patients”.
BigFek says
Saw this on the news the other day. I know some disabilities are invisible however in this case he walked very freely in order to escape thew news media. Obviously had a sympathetic muslim doctor of like mind write him a medical certificate.
A few more details about this fine outstanding Australian citizen from the leftist ABC:
Alqudsi ‘much-loved’ stepfather of seven children
Despite Alqudsi shedding tears at a recent sentencing hearing, Justice Adamson said she was not convinced he was remorseful or that he understood the gravity of his crimes.
She acknowledged his high-risk classification meant his current jail conditions were “particularly harsh and restrictive.”
“[But] I do not regard his prospects for rehabilitation as good,” she said.
However, she also spoke of Alqudsi’s personal circumstances.
She mentioned Alqudsi’s inability to have children for medical reasons, and how he fulfilled the role of a “much-loved” and “devoted” stepfather of the seven children of his wife, Carnita Matthews.
Alleged terror suspect Hamdi Alqudsi leaves Supreme Court after a bail hearing in Sydney, Thursday, July 2, 2015.

Justice Adamson also mentioned how Alqudsi has been the primary carer for his mother, who has leukaemia, and younger brother who suffers from multiple sclerosis.
But she noted other family members were in a position to step into Alqudsi’s role as a carer.
Alqudsi’s wife is known for her run-in with police, when she refused to remove her face covering during a breath test.
After Alqudsi was sentenced this morning, his family called out “Allahu akbar” in the courtroom and he responded, “I’ll call you, man.”
His last words as he left the room escorted by officers were “Salam”, which means peace in Arabic.
A small group of his supporters was visibly upset after the sentencing and hugged one another.
His lawyer said that he had taught his children how to sing “Waltzing Matilda”. The real reason was that he wanted his children to know their enemy better….
billybob says
“Hastily before trial, on the advice of his lawyer, he taught his children how to sing “Waltzing Matilda”. I bet the same lawyer also advised him to trim his beard and wear a Western style suit, though whether he also took that advice I don’t know.
Jewcat says
One of his taxpayer funded wives was the nasty creature who lied about a young policeman pulling her headpiece off. The video camera revealed that he hadn’t touched her. She escaped prosecution on a technicality — the magistrate couldn’t be sure it was Carnita Matthews under the black robes.
Fred says
What is the world coming to when this trash is allowed to behave like this. If this accessory to at the very least attempted murder isn’t sent back to where he came from, What does it take ? One of his wives committed fraud against the police ? Get rid of the entire family.
Disgusted taxpayer says
Our social security was not set up to accommodate polygamous relationships. I resent my taxes going on this illegality to these intolerant people who cleverly use our tolerance against us. Why are these people allowed to stay on social security forever? They should be kicked off after a certain time. (As in Canada). Wife number 2, 3 or 4 should not attract a supporting mother payment as seems to now occur. Why does Centrelink turn a blind eye? Their inbreeding throws up many disabilities in offspring.
So many of them are so poorly educated as to be unemployable.
You do not have to be too clever with your maths to know what this means for all western democracies. GO PAULINE HANSON GO. God help Australia
Jeremy Steering says
What has happened to Australia? It used to have some of the strictest immigration rules of anywhere, only accepting people who had skills they needed, or could prove that they could support themselves financially without government aid. What insanity persuaded them to join North America and Europe and accept economic parasites from across the Third World?
Another clear case of that rapidly spreading and ultimately fatal disease: multiculturalism.
OMG says
Jeremy, this human waste arrived in australia courtesy of the UN and it was 20 yesrs ago, things are much tougher now.
Jeremy Steering says
That’s a relief. I wish I could say the same about Europe. But we have one massive disadvantage – we are just a short boat trip away from Africa and the Middle East. Nightmare.
