He was too fat to work, but not too fat to support the jihad.
Non-Muslims paying for the upkeep of Muslims is a Qur’anic dictate:
“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).
The caliph Umar said the jizya payments from the dhimmis were the source of the Muslims’ livelihood:
“Narrated Juwairiya bin Qudama at-Tamimi: We said to `Umar bin Al-Khattab, ‘O Chief of the believers! Advise us.’ He said, ‘I advise you to fulfill Allah’s Convention (made with the Dhimmis) as it is the convention of your Prophet and the source of the livelihood of your dependents (i.e. the taxes from the Dhimmis.)’” (Bukhari 4.53.388)
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.”
“Pensioner, 44, on Centrelink benefits because he’s overweight ‘sent $4,000 to an American ISIS fighter on PayPal,’” by Joy Joshi, Daily Mail Australia, July 13, 2018:
A disability pensioner who was accused of funding an American Islamic State fighter has been ordered by court to stand trial.
Mr Isa Kocoglu, who is on a pension because of his obesity and mental health issues, has been committed to trial on seven charges by Melbourne Magistrates Court on Friday.
The 44-year-old allegedly sent almost $4000 using PayPal to a known ISIS fighter born in Texas, United States of America.
The man allegedly deposited cash for known jihadist, Yahya al-Bahrumi, at a Commonwealth Bank branch in Sydney’s south eastern suburbs between November 2013 and August 2014.
Mr Bahrumi, born in Texas as John Georgelas, is reportedly considered to be one of Islamic State’s top producers of English language propaganda.
The bushy-bearded man, accused of financially supporting a foreign fighter in Syria, remains on bail.
He has pleaded not guilty and was ordered to stand trial in the Supreme Court.
The Australian Federal Police allege Mr Kocoglu sent the money after multiple cash deposits were made at a Commonwealth Bank branch at Kogarah, in Sydney’s south.
His Hampton Park home was searched in June 2016 and counter-terror officers seized several devices, the court was told.
But he was not charged until 16 months later after officers had pored over the data, including his Facebook history.
‘It was about four terabytes worth of data seized,’ Australian Federal Police officer Astrid Dahmen said.
‘So that took some time to go through and analyse.’
A police translator was called on to interpret some data, including an analysis of the Arabic word ‘hijra’.
‘In an Islamic sense it means ”migration in the cause of Allah”,’ translator Vera Oujami said.
‘If there is the context of a caliphate or jihad.’…

Obesity is beside the point. The Koran and hadiths PRAISE those who support jihad with MONEY. They will be rewarded by Allah with the same rewards as the fighting JIHADISTS… namely money-giving Muslims will be awarded 72 virgin slaves for the purpose of eternal sex with their supposedly eternal erections.
drdirk says
99% of Jihadists never read the small print from the ancient Koranic by laws that say,” the reward of 72 virgin slaves promised for eternity are other men, as Muhammed doth deserve all the fruits of the submisive sex.” What’s really surprising about this fact is the 1% that do read the small print are the Jihad’s most prominent leaders. Who would a thunk huh?
J D S says
Who gets paid for being fat? Whoever authorized that should be put on some starvation diet ..along with this fat guy…..From a prison cell.
Tom says
Given the fact that he is grossly overweight AND can afford to send money to ISIS terrorists from his disability benefits, the Australian government should use some initiative by cutting his benefits by the amount he sent to ISIS and perhaps this will give him the incentive to stop gorging himself into obesity.
Hunger certainly has a way of humbling a person, and if he continues to send money to terrorists then he will have to sacrifice some food.
Perhaps when he has lost some of that weight he will be able to get a job, get off benefits and do something positive. Who knows he may even get fit enough to go join ISIS and get his fat ass blown up.
We can only hope.
Ann Marie says
Of course he pleads ‘not guilty’. In his mind, he has done nothing wrong.. One would think it would open up a wider investigation into muslims receiving state funds for various reasons… But, no: to do that is ‘islamophobic’ ,’racist’ or (insert new term of muslim victimhood here _____)
In giving funds to these muslims, western countries are funding the murders of their countrymen with their own hard earned money! Insane? Yes.. Has that thought even occurred to any of these ‘geniuses leaders’? Never…
gravenimage says
True, Ann Marie.
CogitoErgoSum says
In days of old the poor and disabled were thin and gaunt. Today the “poor” and “disabled” are obese and able to give money away …. and if they are Muslim they pray for the destruction of those who are helping them. When this man prays, I wonder if he is able to get his head lower than his ass due to his stomach being in the way.
lagitane says
The bigger issue here is that these people should be going to Saudi Arabia or Iran to live and not Australia so they can make bomb vests and diddle farm animals all day long to their hearts’ content. That way they don’t have to send money, they can just jump right into battle without that large tire around the middle they acquired due to the misguided generosity of the west. Seriously, the west should curtail ALL government welfare programs as they are immoral and best administered by private charities. Someone else’s need is not a valid claim on my money to be taken by force. And I hope they do deport this loser if he is an immigrant.
Tracey says
I’ve seen plenty of people his size who work, and work hard. He should not be on disability. He should lose his benefits and have to pay back the money he sent to ISIS.
somehistory says
As have I.
How generous the benefits must be there for him to eat so high on the hog and still send that much to the terrorist.
No wonder moslims “migrate” to Australia and Germany, and Sweden, etc.
They get to eat and grow fat and not have to work for a wage, but get paid to be lazy, enough to share their ill-gotten gain with terrorists…which makes them…him…a terrorist.
Stacy Girl says
I’ve seen it in the US. One of my clients was 350+ lb and on disability. Bad knees, you know, from being fat and standing. His disability qualified him to purchase a home. Meanwhile, I’m thin and working. Note: in the US, once you win your disability case, you are retroactively “awarded” benefits going back to the date of application. For this guy it was $49k. Scammers are bleeding this country.
somehistory says
One of my brothers, dying from agent orange, was denied over and over again.
Another relative with a serious heart defect, was denied and when finally approved. the judge said he was disabled from the day of his (the judge’s) decision and not retro back to when he first applied.
It is a very lopsided system and scammers seem to get the best of deals, while the really sick are left in the cold to just die.
Linda says
If he can sock away $4,000.00 to send to ISIS, he is getting too much in benefits. The benefits could be cut back and he should be required to repay the $4,000.00 that he sent to ISIS. If he is so loyal to ISIS, he needs to be required to leave Australia, which he apparently doesn’t regard highly anyway, to go to live with ISIS.

elee says
Okay by me if they starve the fat bastard. Then again if they sell him at a Muslim slave market, he’d probably fetch a nice price, his owner could work his ass skinny again. But no, there is no justice, Australia will never collect from him, and he’ll go on collecting jizya and maybe even go to the Dawa Hilton at further great expense to decent civilizaed taxpayers.
mortimer says
The lack of fear or regret is intolerable.

Too fat to work…The Muslin Michael Moore ate his way to fame and fortune without ‘working’…If he can do it anyone can do i…
DHazard says
Now that ISIS is becoming history I wonder if this chubby Islamist is counting in his mind all the Big Macs he could have ordered for $4000.00.
SB says
I’m so tired of Western countrys giving money to deadbeat Muslims and thereby facilitating the jihad.and destruction of the West.

Why is this even possible to do? PayPal will shut down accounts that belong to certain folks right of center (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/paypal-suspends-dozens-of-racist-groups-sites-altright-com/ likely advised by the SPLC) but this is still possible? You can PayPal-fund the caliphate???

It is sick to pay lardarses who deny their mouths nothing their eyes see. It’s even worse that this comes from taxpayer money. How sick can a country get? Isn’t it time to kill all the politicians?
Gjallarhornet says
Blaspemhy. Because: Ibn Umar narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The believer eats in one stomach whilst the kaafir eats in seven. Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5081) and Muslim (2060).
CogitoErgoSum says
Does anybody know what that is supposed to mean? Has anyone in the recorded history of mankind ever been found to have seven stomachs? Even if so, what in hell would it have to do with anything at all concerning one’s religious beliefs? This is just further evidence of what a person must have in order to be a Muslim … that is, possess one stomach but not necessarily a single, solitary brain cell.
gravenimage says
Supposedly this just means that Infidels are greedy for the things of this world while Muslims are not:
http://icraa.org/hadith-eating-one-seven-intestines/
Not sure that describes Isa Kocoglu or most other Muslims, though.
They are usually fine with rejecting things of this world like human love and decency, but enjoy rape, robbery, and all most forms of cruelty.
CogitoErgoSum says
Thanks, graven. What a deep thinker that Muhammad was. Oh no, Muslims are not greedy for the things of this world. That’s why they limit themselves to only four wives and/or as many slave concubines as they can afford after they’ve divided up all the booty they’ve plundered from the “infidels.” That’s why their version of Paradise is filled with lust and eternal debauchery. Oh no, they are not the greedy bastards they appear to be. Damn their sick religion to Hell.
Gjallarhornet says
Well, my point was his fatness goes against islam, something it gives me great joy to point out. That he on top of that gets a handout by the Australian state for being fat makes it all hilarious. If the Australian state wants to be friendly to islam, and it does – it has no self respect, they should have sent him to a boot camp to get all that lard away, like Allah commands him to do.
But hey, I guess islam never had a problem with contradictions, since not of it makes sense anyway.
