Australia: Muslim on disability pension for obesity charged with sending money to Islamic State jihadis

Nov 25, 2017 7:23 am By Robert Spencer

He no doubt considered the disability pension his due as a Muslim, whether or not he was really so disabled as to be unable to work. For it is the Infidels’ duty to pay for the upkeep of the Muslims: “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).

UK jihad preacher 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.”

“Overweight man on a disability pension for his obesity is freed on $50,000 bail after being charged with sending money to ISIS terrorists in Syria,” Australian Associated Press, November 23, 2017 (thanks to Kenneth):

A Melbourne disability pensioner charged with funding Islamic State fighters in Syria has been freed on a $50,000 surety.

Isa Kocoglu was bailed on Thursday on strict conditions banning him from contact with ISIS sympathisers and social media, except to contact family members.

The 43-year-old married father from Hampton Park is charged with supporting persons engaged in hostile activity in Syria.

Australian Federal Police allege Mr Kocoglu sent almost $4000, using online payment system PayPal, to a known ISIS jihadist between November 2013 and August 2014.

It’s alleged he administered a website used by people who support Islamic State ideology when he helped raise funds for the ISIS member.

The Victorian Supreme Court was told he made admissions to police, but claimed the money was being sent to someone engaged in humanitarian aid in Syria, rather than a terrorist.

The AFP believed Mr Kocoglu poses an unacceptable risk of interfering with witnesses and failing to answer bail if released.

But commonwealth prosecutors did not oppose bail, provided there were strict conditions.

The court was told Mr Kocoglu had family ties to Turkey and expressed a desire to migrate to Syria.

But his defence said he surrendered his Australian passport and was able to immediately hand in his expired Turkish passport.

At the time of his arrest, Mr Kocoglu was on a disability support pension due to his obesity and mental health.

He took his fight to the Supreme Court after being refused bail by a magistrate in October.

Justice David Beach ruled on Thursday the risk he posed could be reduced with a surety and strict conditions.

He ordered Mr Kocoglu report daily to police, obey a 10pm to 6am curfew and stay in Victoria….

      “A fat muslim at the Aussi trough, it doesn’t get much dumber than that.”

      You’re right, it doesn’t…unless you want to bring even more welfare Muslims to Australia.

      For a lifetime of support from Australia, I’m willing to suffer my way through some great pastries. Where do I sign up?

      This is truly freakonomics!

      This is the disability support pension brought in by previous Labor-Greens govt (and which the current govt hasn’t got the balls to repeal even though the country is broke). Genuinely disabled Aussies previously had access to financial support.

    1) Jihad is required 2) ways to perform jihad: be a fighter, a supporter, lie, play victim: all of the written can be found in Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic sharia law: chapter o9.0 page 599 begins details on jihad under sharia law and other chapters of said book as well as the Koran and other Islamic teachings.
    Prophet stated: “He who provides the equipment for a soldier in jihad has himself performed jihad” page 600
    How can a Muslim be trusted when their law states to wage jihad (war) against all foreign nations? How can you trust a Muslim when you do not know whats behind the eyes and mind of a person taught to kill, lie and deceive? Would you trust a Muslim knowing sharia law and that its trying to destroy Constitution, civilization of un-Islamic countries?
    Muslim “extremists” they are doing EXACTLY what their holy book says to do

      Responding to L-C,

      Isa Kocoglu (Turkish name) is a FINANCIAL JIHADIST and therefore gets his share of 72 virgins and SLAVES in the absurd, sensual Islamic paradise where the male member never softens.

      The purpose of a Muslim male’s life is to fight for sex slaves and thousands of personal slave attendants in Islamic paradise.

      They ‘fight’ by being bounty hunters against the dirty kufaar whose crime is that they do not worship ‘correctly’.

    The “picture” is almost hilarious in its emblematic symbolism: We have fed Muslims, and with them Islam, to our own destruction.
    Dennis Prager’s admonition on gratitude is pertinent here:

      Feed him much more and it might just be to HIS destruction! (Interesting idea!) I wonder how much weight he’d lose if he got shot of that beard! Maybe if he actually took himself to Syria in a reinforced plane, ISIS could use him as a battering ram – it would go with the rest of their medieval thinking.

    “Isa Kocoglu was bailed on Thursday on strict conditions banning him from contact with ISIS sympathisers and social media, except to contact family members.”

    Who are likely all ISIS sympathizers.

    • Leondegrance2 says

      Nov 25, 2017 at 2:50 pm

      Exactly, that sentence implicitly implies that all of his family members are ISIS sympathisers. Just deport all of them, they are enemies of the state. Too bad they don’t do hangings anymore.

    The world has gone f**king crazy!

    Disability payments for stuffing your pie hole & refusing to exercise? Unbelievable!

    The fact that he is a Muslim & a jihad supporter who no doubt despises the taxpayers who support his lazy, gluttonous ass just makes it all the more insane.

  9. Sarah says

    There aren’t many people in this country, who could scam a Disability Support Pension payment, just for being fat.

    This fat pig has gotten away with it because he’s found a Doctor who will write up anything (probably another Muslim) and then he’s waddled his fat ass into Centrelink and shrieked MUSLIM!!! enough times to get the staff there to stamp the forms – we certainly wouldn’t want to offend anyone now, would we??

    I can guarantee you, that 99% of us wouldn’t be able to swing approval for a Disability Support Pension on the basis of being extremely fat and feeling depressed about it.

    And I’m confident that he has an entire family lurking about in the background, all who are pulling in welfare too. And let’s be real here. Sure, he’s a fat bastard – but he’s not THAT fat. He can walk – ergo he can work. Its not like he’s ‘pulley-system fat’. You know, where they need a pulley system to haul themselves upright and in and out of bed.

    Its funny, because if he went to Syria – he’d loose that weight quick smart. Frankly, I’m happy to just deport his fat ass and ban him from ever returning to Australia – and his entire family. But before we do that, we need to get some use of out him, for repayment of all that money.

    So put a chain around his fat neck and haul him out to the Pilbara. (The great red waste in the middle of whoop whoop) and set him to work for 5 years of backbreaking, non stop, 7 day a week manual labour.

    Even the do-gooder Leftie’s should be happy about that – because we’re doing him a favour by helping him lose weight by dint of working til his fingers bleed, in 50 degree celsius desert conditions..

    Nothing new from the inbreds who shamelessly live off our money but want to kill us,” the infidels”. The west has gone to the dogs due to leftist politicians like Merkel, Macron, Turncoat, O.Husssein et al who must be tried for treason.

  13. tgusa says

    He doesn’t look so fat that he is unable to work. More likely he has no skills that he could use to make money in a non-muslim majority country.

    Lust is the first deadly sin and we all know they have that covered.

    Gluttony is the second.

    Greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride are the other five. They seem to have those covered as well.

    Nota bene, he’s from *Turkey*. Turkey, that is supposedly the home of ‘moderate’ or ‘moderated’ Islam.

    Yet: here is a Muslim, of Turkish background, busy supporting Islamic State.

    Doesn’t matter *where* a Muslim is from – Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey, Bosnia, Albania – it *cannot* be assumed that they are not dangerous or that they or their kids will not *become* dangerous.

    Quran (3:151) – “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers

    If a non-Muslim claimed obesity as a disability, he would be laughed at and/or investigated for making a false claim.

    Muslims are ALLOWED by Islam-ADORING Western authorities to Deceive, Lie, and Commit any Crime for the sole reason they are Muslims — SHARIA

    Wouldn’t it be a better idea to spend the money putting this big piece of blubber on a diet? They could probably get Nutrasystem shipped to Australia.

    It seems apparent to me that the ONLY thing Islamists do is kill and rape. Too lazy to work to feed themselves, too dumb to know that Mo was a liar & a creep. The parasites of the planet. Far worse than mosquitoes & fleas. Paying money to this bludger is a crime against the people. Incorrigible Govts.
