| [JAPANTIMES.CO.JP] A 6-year-old Australian boy photographed making an Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... movement salute in front of a human body hanging from a cross somewhere in the Middle East is entitled to return to Australia with his siblings, the prime minister said Monday. But such children who return from the battlefields of Syria and Iraq will be subject to "the closest attention" to ensure Australians are safe, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said. "We will be utterly resolute in keeping Australians safe, and that applies to anyone who returns from the conflict zone, whether they are an adult or a child," Turnbull told news hounds. Australian media on Sunday published a photograph posted on social media by Sydney-born convicted terrorist Khaled Sharrouf of his youngest child. The smiling boy holds up his right index finger in a salute in front of an apparently lifeless body suspended from a cross with plastic cable ties. A sign hanging from the body said the capital crime was collaborating with Christians. Sharrouf’s Moslem-convert wife Tara Nettleton took their five children from Sydney to Syria to join their father in February 2014. Nettleton died of surgery complications last September, but her mother, Karen Nettleton, continues to lobby governments for help to bring the children home. Turnbull criticized Sharrouf, 35, over the picture, saying such behavior demonstrates why Australia is committed to destroying the Islamic State movement. "The despicable conduct of Khaled Sharrouf in using his child to promote the barbaric, terrorist activities of the organization of which he is part, is almost beyond belief," Turnbull said. "All of the children that are being exploited in this way, if they are Australian citizens, of course, would be able to return to Australia. But under the closest possible supervision," he added. |
