Islamofascism and Jihadism On Sale In A Book Store Near You?
Topics: TerrorismIf you live in Australia - for sure. If you live elsewhere near a Muslim community - probably.
BOOKS of hate promoting jihad, hostility to Australia and "wiring up one's body" for suicide attacks are for sale in bookshops in Sydney's Muslim community. A special investigation by The Daily Telegraph in the wake of the London bombings found extremist literature on shelves near innocuous children's reading such as It's fun to wear a hijab.Read More...One incendiary tome bought for $11, Defence of the Muslim Lands carries an endorsement from Osama bin Laden on its cover. The book by Sheik Abdullah Azzam, found at The Islamic Bookstore at Lakemba, discusses the effectiveness of suicide bombings.
"The form this usually takes nowadays is to wire up one's body, or a vehicle or a suitcase with explosives, and then to enter amongst a conglomeration of the enemy and to detonate..." the writer states. "There is no other technique which strikes as much terror into their hearts, and which shatters their spirits as much."
Bin Laden wrote that women "have proven themselves incapable" of giving birth to another man like the author, believed killed in a bombing in the 1980s.
Another book by the same author, Join the Caravan, contains similar themes. "For how long will the believing youths be held back and restrained from jihad?" it reads.
The Absent Obligation, by hanged revolutionary Muhammad Abdus Salam Faraj, also advocates individuals participating in martyrdom operations. The black book discusses how self detonation differs from suicide, offering quotes from the Koran to support the claim. "Indeed, there is a vast difference between the one who ends his life due to his inability to bear the difficulties of life and its various tribulations and the one who offers his life for the cause of Allah."
The large Haldon St shop, associated with the Saudi-based Wahabi tradition of Islam, is close to the Lakemba Prayer Hall. Members of the prayer hall have been interviewed by ASIO in the past. French terrorist Willie Brigitte - deported from Australia in 2003 - is understood to have worshipped there.
Hassan describes migrating to Australia as a "life sentence" and claims being Australian is "something to be ashamed of".
