    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;the unescapable fact remains that if Australians &amp;nbsp;were not fighting&amp;nbsp;ISIS then ISIS would not be encouraging disaffected teenagers to kill Australians&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;that is similar to what the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;hizb ut-tahrir are preaching.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thankfully, the muslim community&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;have someone like dr rifi&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Dr Jamal Rifi: The Aussie doctor taking on IS&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;DIV class="story-intro"&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;I WAS dismayed to hear this morning’s &lt;A href="http://www.smh.com.au/world/britains-white-jihadi-actually-a-gifted-aussie-school-dropout-called-jake-now-fighting-for-islamic-state-20150308-13typd.html" target="_blank"&gt;report&lt;/A&gt; about a Melbourne schoolboy being identified as the ‘white jihadi’.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;Likewise, the &lt;A href="http://www.news.com.au/national/immigration-minister-peter-dutton-said-two-teenage-brothers-arrested-while-trying-to-leave-australia-to-fight-with-isis-were-saved/story-fncynjr2-1227253476850" target="_blank"&gt;story on the weekend &lt;/A&gt;that two teenagers had been arrested at Sydney Airport on their way to support IS. Congratulations to the Immigration and Border Protection for preventing those boys from making a deadly mistake, but it just shows what a big task it is to fight against radicalisation when it is happening to our children in our homes, via social media, without parents even knowing. It’s a scary prospect, but one that we have to face.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am not an expert on terrorism, nor do I claim to be. Likewise I am not a religious scholar or leader.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am merely a suburban general practitioner who is lucky enough to speak to dozens of my community members each day and where I can offer them help or advice.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I saw the picture of Khaled Sharouf’s son holding the severed head I was deeply shocked, perhaps more than most, because I had known his family both in Lebanon during the civil war and in here in Australia.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I knew that he was diagnosed with a mental illness during his trial following Operation Pendennis, which led to his imprisonment. I knew that he fled Australia fearful for his life after two of his associates were shot dead.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yet above all this — and indeed because of it — I knew then I had to speak out against his actions and those of the so-called Islamic State.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;For it was clear to me that Sharouf, like his IS brethren, was a rogue and violent aberration. I didn’t want his actions to be seen as condoned by Australian Muslims just as I didn’t want the general public to think that any true Australian Muslims are supporters of the barbaric IS.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Moreover, I didn’t want my community to be seen as a risk to the safety and security of Australia and its citizens, as I know the majority are grateful, responsible and law abiding citizens of this great country.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I was even more shocked when I became aware of the death threat to myself and my family.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The hardest thing to stomach was that it was from Mohamed Elomar, who is also fighting with IS, and I have known the Elomar family all my life — his father, Mamdouh Elomar, is one of my oldest friends.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;After consulting with my family, we all decided that we should take precautions but that I needed to be even more vocal in exposing the true nature of IS and its Australian supporters.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have always believed that actions speak louder than words, yet in this case my words have become actions.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;For someone who has always shielded my family from the rough and tumble of public life, I now have to rely on them to publicly support me. This meant I had to get them to participate in &lt;A href="http://www.abc.net.au/austory/" target="_blank"&gt;Australian Story&lt;/A&gt;, a long and intrusive process where minute details of our daily lives were being filmed for public display and scrutiny on ABC TV (the program airs tonight).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I know I made the right decision and hope this conviction remains true after watching the episode.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The core of my belief is that our world must be expunged of the obscene actions and ideology of Islamic State and its ilk. I feel a personal responsibility in making this happen as this is done in the name of my religion.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This is a struggle for the soul of our Islamic faith, which has been hijacked by IS. I pray that one day their barbarity and belief systems will be something we recoil at in horror as we read it in the history books, just as we do at Nazi Germany or the Spanish Inquisition.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But to put them in the past, we have to continue to build a future for Muslims that places religious totalitarianism, political violence, and vulgar extremism as immiscible with the Islamic mindset worldwide. Defending and celebrating the successes of the multiculturalism, tolerance, acceptance and pluralism that we enjoy in Australia is not just the other side to Islamic extremism, it is the solution to it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I know I speak the truth and am supported by the overwhelming majority in the Australian Muslim community. We need to speak up about the beautiful principles by which we purport to live, and which demand that far from harming our fellow Australian citizens, we are bound to serve and protect them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We have a beautiful faith tradition, that teaches us to be exemplary and compassionate human beings. Unfortunately our communities have been contaminated with misanthropic peoples with destructive views and behaviours.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I personally feel that the best way to decant Islam and Muslim communities of these contaminants is by passing it through the filter of Western pluralism and democratic values. Our traditions and beliefs are most compatible with freedom and liberty and opposed to intolerance and totalitarianism.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;And so, to action. This means not just military operations abroad and police operations at home, but also tackling the problem at its very foundation. We need a comprehensive counter-radicalisation strategy in which the focus is on young Muslim minds who will shape the future of the Muslim community not just in Australia but around the world.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This has to come from a position of religious and moral strength, not weakness. Instead of just shielding vulnerable minds from radical preachers and slick recruitment propaganda — which may be all but impossible — we must enable them to see extremism for what it is by teaching them that it has no place in our peaceful religion or any civilised society. We may not always be able to protect our young from the influence of evil but we can empower them to reject it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Talk isn’t always cheap, as I know from personal experience, but action is what builds change. We must not just speak noble words but live by them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/tv/dr-jamal-rifi-the-aussie-doctor-taking-on-is/story-e6frfmyi-1227254864323" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/tv/dr-jamal-rifi-the-aussie-doctor-taking-on-is/story-e6frfmyi-1227254864323&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/honour-roll/?view=fullView&amp;amp;recipientID=300" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.australianoftheyear.org.au/honour-roll/?view=fullView&amp;amp;recipientID=300&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;you're right about it being terror related.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;NSW Police have confirmed&amp;nbsp;that a&amp;nbsp;15-year-old boy was&amp;nbsp;the lone gunman who shot dead a police employee outside the&amp;nbsp;state's headquarters in Sydney's west.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The teenager shouted religious slogans before&amp;nbsp;firing&amp;nbsp;one shot in&amp;nbsp;the back of the head of a&amp;nbsp;police finance&amp;nbsp;worker as the employee was heading home on Friday afternoon.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;The police employee has been named as Curtis Cheng, a&amp;nbsp;17-year veteran of the police force. Police say&amp;nbsp;the shooter is of Iraqi-Kurdish background and was born in Iran.&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;NSW Police Commissioner Andrew&amp;nbsp;Scipione confirmed the shooting was politically motivated and was linked to terrorism, but the teenager acted alone.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The shooting took place outside&amp;nbsp;the State Crime Command in Parramatta,&amp;nbsp;home to the state's&amp;nbsp;homicide, drug, Middle Eastern organised crime and gangs squad,&amp;nbsp;located near a primary and high school.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;DIV class="cT-imageLandscape"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It is understood&amp;nbsp;some members of the gunman's family had just returned to the Middle East.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Mr Scipione said the gunman then remained on the street and was acting "aggressively" before he was shot and killed in a shoot-out with special constables responding to the initial shooting.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Footage of the incident was captured on security cameras.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"An employee of the NSW Police Force has been callously murdered here today," Mr&amp;nbsp;Scipione said on Friday night.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"This is a very sobering time for us ...

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Much more coming Julia.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The Bible speaks of the beast and said that he turns his attention to the isles.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Looks as though he has now turned his attention to the isles.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You saw how the devil behaved overseas and since then he has grown stronger.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The dates are in the Bible.I warned all the pollies and they ignored.They think they know everything.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;DH of the day goes to the channel nine “road kill” journo who was outside one of the homes being raided this morning.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I understand they have a job to do, but this situation should be treated with caution. This boofhead thought it a good idea to accost a women arriving at the premises, he was in her face with a microphone and a camera guy in tow, asking her a pearler of a question “so they got it wrong”? I don’t blame her for lashing out, what an absolute idiot, he wasn’t happy to just film the raid he had to go that one step further with his attempt to sensationalize a delicate operation. In a later cross to the raid here they were complaining because they had eggs thrown at them. I say “egg on face” is just what they deserved.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
