Accused cleric hoped to 'kill 1000'(wanted to kill 1000 Australians to "please Allah" )

SUBURBAN Islamic cleric Abdul Nacer Benbrika wanted to kill 1000 Australians to "please Allah" and had the support of a blond recruit who had pledged violent jihad during a meeting with Osama bin Laden. A Melbourne court heard yesterday that a witness would reveal that Shane Kent, 29, received weapons and explosives training at the Taliban-run al-Faruq training camp for foreign jihadis in Afghanistan.

And at a meeting with bin Laden in that country, Mr Kent, from Meadow Heights in Melbourne's north, allegedly committed himself to violent jihad. The alleged Melbourne terror cell's spiritual leader, Mr Benbrika embraced Mr Kent as part of his clique, the court heard, saying: "He's good, and he doesn't talk too much."

Mr Benbrika encouraged his devotees to plan a large-scale terrorist attack, which police foiled during its "developmental stages", the court heard during the opening day of the committal hearing of 13 suspects yesterday.

"If you kill, we kill here 1000," Mr Benbrika allegedly said in a conversation covertly taped by police. "Because if you get large numbers here, the government will listen."

The court was told that Mr Benbrika encouraged his adherents to follow in the footsteps of one of the masterminds of the 2002 Bali terrorist attack. He allegedly told two of them that when they were captured "they should do like Amrozi (bin Nurhasyim) and tell the judge, 'You can kill me, but there will be others coming after"'.

The court heard yesterday that the accused group was making plans for a backyard explosives laboratory, had held secret training camps and was found with an armoury of weapons and bomb-making manuals.

Terrorists like Abdul Benbrika should be executed.

Terrorists like Shane Kent should be tortured and ripped into small pieces, with their agonies broadcast on live TV.

Benbrika is an enemy, but Kent is a traitor and a fifth columnist and his type need to be eradicated in an especially merciless way.

Isn't it interesting that while these rejects from the 17th century are busy doing murder to Aussies the Aussies are hard at work saving lives?

Perhaps now the Western cultures will realize with whom they are locked in mortal combat. This 'suburban cleric' worships demonic forces, a demon masquerading as god to these poor deluded souls: SUBURBAN Islamic cleric Abdul Nacer Benbrika wanted to kill 1000 Australians to "please Allah" ... Sadly, millions of Muslims believe this delusion to the point of murdering their fellow human beings for this demon they worship.

Killing others does not please the true God. it is Satan
who is the murderer and the father of lies. This statement
makes it very clear that Islam is a Satanic cult.

We have to get to the point where a "holy man" or any other man who expresses an interest in killing people is shot on the spot. No questions, no trial, no rights. These are not human beings, they are killing animals and should be treated as such.

Mohammed: The Ugly Truth About the Founder of the World's Most Violent Religion
https://www.conservativebookclub.com/Join/SingleBookJoin.asp?sour_cd=sb073az&prod_cd=c6614

Fr. J.L. Menezes knew Islam up close: as a priest in India, he devoted his priestly life to introducing that nation's tens of millions of Muslims to Christianity. With this life of Mohammed, he left us the record of his appeals: a frank, honest, and exhaustively researched exploration of the life of the "prophet" of Islam, the development and contents of the Koran, and an introduction to various Muslim sects.

Fr. Menezes could be writing about today's Muslim terrorists when he explains that "Mohammed posed as the apostle of God, the seal of the prophets; as the destroyer of idolatry; as preacher of one true God, and the reformer of morals: while his life is marked by innumerable marriages; and great licentiousness, deeds of rapine, warfare, conquests, unmerciful butcheries, all the time invoking God's holy name to sanction his evil deeds, ordering prayers and alms deeds and at the same time propagating Islam everywhere by fire and sword."

With Islam on the march everywhere and Muslims streaming into the U.S. in record numbers, the candor, common sense, and solid Christian faith of this book are needed more than ever.

" What kind of God would want 1,000 people dead in his name?"

Muslims go into violent rages over the slightest disrespect for the Profit Mo, yet Christians and Jews have to accept the utter blasphemy of their claiming Allah is the same god as the God of the Bible, who says clearly "there are no other gods", and any honest fool who knows ANYTHING about both the Bible and the Qur'an would have to admit these are vastly different beings.

What is really galling is when some church leader (usually some liberal pseudo-theologian) repeats the lie that "all three of the great religions worship the same God and are descended from Abraham", and accept the nonsense about Mohammad being a prophet--even, as I saw being done by an Episcopalian in a purple frock with a giant show cross around his neck spouting his ignorance on a PBS Michael Moore-style crockumentary called, I believe, "Three Faiths, One God".

The people abusing their leadership positions to deceive in God's name, whether out of ignorance or some misguided notion of politically correct interpretation of Christ's love and tolerance, are, according to the Bible, going to held to account BIG time.

Thanks for this ping. This creep once described Osama Bin Laden as "a great man". As I recall, he was originally denied an Australian visa but eventually gained entry by marrying someone with Australian citizenship. He should be dropped in the midle of the Simpson Desert in the middle of summer without the rag on his head and without water.
