| The son of a man accused of conspiring to blow up the Israeli embassy in Canberra has told the District Court in Perth his father wrote to him about jihad and that he hated non-Muslims. Jens Holland is giving evidence at the trial of 50-year-old Jack Roche, who is alleged to have committed the offence in 2000. Mr Holland told the court his father sent him a letter in early 2000 saying that Muslims were obliged to make jihad and he would be making a sacrifice to enter paradise. He told the court the letter said non-believers were out of control, that their ways were based on inequality and arrogance and that he needed to learn more to combat them. The court heard that Mr Holland later that year he drove his father around Canberra to film embassies. The trial continues. |
