Australia: Muslim vandalizes 68 graves, avoids jail

Jul 19, 2017 8:08 am By Robert Spencer

“The court heard he showed no remorse for his actions in damaging graves at the Rookwood Cemetery in 2015.”

He showed no remorse because he thinks he did a great deed in the eyes of Allah. Damaging graves, many of which bore crosses (“most of the graves were in the Greek and Ukrainian sections of the cemetery”) shows Islam’s contempt for jahiliyya, the society of the unbelievers, which is regarded as worthless refuse. This vandalism is also a declaration of the victory and supremacy of Islam, and a warning to unbelievers. In the Qur’an, Allah tells Muslims to travel around and look at the ruins of the unbelievers’ societies as a warning about his judgment and power: “Travel through the land and observe how was the end of those before. Most of them were idolaters” (30:42).

Nassem Raad has to pay for the damage he did, but won’t go to prison. As he heard that sentence, how he must have laughed, inwardly, at the foolish infidels.

“Man who vandalised children’s graves avoids jail,” Yahoo7 News, July 19, 2017 (thanks to Pat):

A vandal who damaged 68 graves at cemetery in Sydney’s west, many of them marking the resting places of children, has been fined but avoided jail.

A court heard Nassem Raad received a nine-month suspended sentence and was ordered to pay more than $63,000 in damages.

The court heard he showed no remorse for his actions in damaging graves at the Rookwood Cemetery in 2015.

Most of the graves were in the Greek and Ukrainian sections of the cemetery with many marking the resting place of babies.

    are the courts no longer looking at the ability of the accused to actually pay?

    • RonaldB says

      Jul 19, 2017 at 10:15 am

      Yeah. My thought exactly. A Muslim who openly defiles grave stones and makes not even an appearance of regret is likely to be on welfare and with no known resources of his own. He will not be imprisoned for not paying the fine, so he gets off scot free as far as his lifestyle. I’m sure the conviction will not affect his welfare checks either.

      What this really shows is the tremendous power of an organized and unified identity group to affect the enforcement of laws (such as it is) and public policy. Once you have Muslim organizations in the political process, enforcing the law against a Muslim simply following sharia dictates is a matter of swimming upstream…which public bureaucrats are notoriously unable to do.

      So the lessons here (and I know I’m preaching to the choir and not under any illusions I’m saying anything that 99% of the readers don’t already know) is to not import populations likely to coalesce as an identity group that have any cultural behaviors seriously at variance with the host country.

    It’s perfectly legal to own a slave,
    But forbidden to set up a cross on a grave.

    Why aren’t the people of these countries standing up and fighting back? Have they become so liberalized and pathetic that they can’t fight anymore. Get rid of those liberal leaders. Fight Back! Stop letting these animals take over our civilized nations. Get the right to bear arms again. Where are your guts and gonads? I’m so angry about the way my ancestors’ countries have gone to hell with these dogs. They don’t belong there. It isn’t even Europe anymore. They may as well call it Muslimland.

      I live not far from this cretenous perpetrator, what do you consider I do? I’ve written submissions to government ministers, supported counter jihad parties. Do you suggest law abiding citizens like me unlock our firearms cabinet and start dealing out some more suitable justice?

      If you were here, would you do it, risk losing all you have worked for, safety of family and end up in jail for life, because of some illiterate parasitic maggot?

      Here lies the conundrum..at what point in the future will law abiding,hard working westerners say enough is enough and take up arms against their aggressors?
      Are we in the west at that point yet or ? Discuss..

    And if an infidel, fed up with the evils of islum, tore up some of the graves of moslums, what would have happened?

    But, the True God sees these things and knows all that this son of a demon did. All of this scum’s actions will be taken into account when he renders and receives what is coming to him.
    A grave is a resting place…but he will have no rest.

    No doubt mohamedans in Australia will now feel emboldened to defile the many memorials to Australian soldiers who participated in the Gallipoli landing in World War I. Bear in mind that Galliipoli was part of Ottoman Turkey (of Armenian Genocide infamy), so it is consdered part of the ummah.

    • gravenimage says

      Jul 20, 2017 at 5:06 pm

      I think Muslims are already terribly emboldened.

      I’m not sure what is happening in Gallipoli itself in Turkey, but here is what Muslims (it was almost certainly Muslims) are doing in Britain:

      “Vandals desecrate ANZAC war cemetery on eve of Gallipoli commemorations”

    Since those are religious monuments this should be a hate crime and be enhanced accordingly. I’ll bet someone somewhere put bacon on mosque door and got a worse sentence.

    #MuslimPrivilege

    • Richard says

      Jul 19, 2017 at 2:10 pm

      This was a Muslim (perpetrated) hate crime, where the sentences are reduced. In this case, no jail time.
      Bacon in a Mosque? – life sentence resulting in death in jail, as happened in Britain.

  9. Gene says

    Jul 19, 2017 at 1:40 pm

    I suspect this guy will be jail soon when he refuses to pay the damages.

    • mohamonator says

      Jul 19, 2017 at 2:00 pm

      Wouldn’t be surprised if his fellow mohamadans set up a Gofundme page to collect money to pay the fine.

    • Richard says

      Jul 19, 2017 at 2:04 pm

      @Gene – Nope not a chance. When you “refuse” to pay your fines in Australia and NZ, you usually say I dont have the money. The judge then asks how much can you pay? You say something like $5/- per week/ fortnight/ month. When you default on that you are hauled before the court to have your “burden” further reduced and/or extension granted.

      • gravenimage says

        Jul 20, 2017 at 5:07 pm

        Sadly true, Richard.

    “Australia: Muslim vandalizes 68 graves, avoids jail”

    Why? Was it because it was just his “cultural” right to do so?

    Or was it the fear that if he was jailed he might get $10.5 million as compensation?

    I worked for a Ukrainian immigrant to Australia in the 1970s. I wonder if his grave was damaged. He was a wonderful man. He learnt to speak excellent English as an adult. He received an MBE award for services to the Ukrainian community of Australia, studied industrial chemistry as an adult and worked as an industrial chemist. He was a real gem. He died years ago but I couldn’t make the funeral. He lived near that cemetery. He was a personal friend of ex PM Malcolm Fraser who often rang our office phone and called himself “Mal”. Rest in peace George.

    Australia: Muslim vandalizes 68 graves, avoids jail
    ………………..

    He showed no remorse. Many of the graves were those *of children*. What possible mitigating circumstances were there?

    Desecrating the graves of Infidels is mainstream Islam. This is not happening in the West. Insanity.

  15. dumbledoresarmy says

    Jul 20, 2017 at 7:38 am

    The damage to the graves was massive. Really violent. And he and the other bloke – Muhammad Ibrahim – specifically targeted CROSSES.

    This was not random vandalism such as your average infidel yob might carry out. This was concentrated mohammedan hatred, *exactly* like the mohammedans who attack and desecrate the Jewish graves on the Mount of Olives (and throw rocks at those who come to visit the graves, too).

    Here’s an earlier article (from 2016) about the case, which includes lots of pictures of the damage these two mohammedthugs did.

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3586217/Man-charged-destroying-Orthodox-Christian-graves-Sydney-tries-run-media-Jeep.html

    But there’s also another article – a quick google round turned it up – which shows that back in March 2016 when the case was first coming to court the mohammedthugs *were* confronted – by a bunch of very angry and focused Russo-Australians.

    http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/youre-a-coward-cossacks-confront-man-accused-of-destroying-fifty-orthodox-russian-graves/news-story/cb1b8fbbf2b6330dfcfd4d8edacc0236

    From the article –

    “ANGRY Russian patriots dressed in military clothing confronted a man [Nassem Raad’s co-accused and partner in crime – dda] accused of destroying more than 50 Orthodox Christian graves outside court Thurday morning.

    “They shouted “You’re a coward” as he hurried away down the street.

    “Muhammad Ibrahim had just pleaded not guilty in Burwood Local Court to destroying the graves in the Christian Orthodox section at Rookwood cemetery on November 27 last year.

    “Several members of the Zabaikal Cossacks Australia surrounded Ibrahim and a couple of his supporters as they left the courthouse around 11.30am.

    “After several seconds of pushing and shouting, the group let Ibrahim and his supporters leave but followed them down the street shouting at the hooded 25-year-old to “show his face”….”.

    “A spokesman for Zabaikal Cossacks Australia said the historical enthusiasts had repaired “whole rows” of Russian Orthodox graves.
    “We are Russians we are very strong in traditions, we are not a community that is weak,” he said.
    “We are here to express support for Russia and we want to support the Australian police in apprehending this man.””

      Thanks for the additional information, DDA.

      You are right–this isn’t what some garden-variety delinquents might do–kicking over a couple of headstones and maybe leaving some crude graffiti. This is really vicious–targeting crosses, really destroying them, and targeting the graves of children. And they didn’t even have to read the dates to see that these were the graves of kids–loved ones had left teddy bears and other objects that were obvious.

      And their aggressive reaction to the press–including flipping them off–shows that they are in no way remorseful. *Ugh*.

    I’d wager they’ll spend more than the $63,000 fine getting the first thousand out of him.
