Three Muslim ISIS terrorist wannabes joked around in court as they were found guilty of conspiring to kill Australians using machetes and suicide vests.
Daily Mail (h/t MarvinW) Hamza Abbas, 23, his cousin Abdullah Chaarani, 27, and Ahmed Mohamed, 25, were found guilty in the Supreme Court of acts in preparation for the attack, targeting Federation Square, St Paul’s Cathedral and Flinders Street station on Christmas Day 2016.
Then Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull called their sick plan, designed to cause mass casualties, ‘one of the most substantial terrorists plots that have been disrupted over the last several years’.
The verdict followed seven days of deliberations by the jury, and eight weeks of evidence – including from Hamza’s older brother Ibrahim Abbas, 24 – who confessed his involvement to police and pleaded guilty earlier this year.
The trio were found guilty on November 2, but in a serious blow to open justice, lawyers for the men applied to have the verdict kept secret by way of a suppression order.
This prevented the result from being publicly revealed for almost two weeks until an appeal court tribunal overturned the suppression order, saying the verdict should be made public given the amount of publicity the trial had received.
‘The trial has been fully reported and that genie cannot be put back in the bottle,’ the tribunal’s three judges said in their ruling.
Arrogant Mohamed and Chaarani laughed and chatted to each other between the individual verdicts. Both nodded slowly and looked indifferent as the guilty decision was given. As they were removed from the dock, Mohamed gave his family a big, cheesy grin, while Hamza gave his a thumbs up.
Police left court carrying two machetes Chaarani and Ibrahim bought in preparation for the attack. Ibrahim said they were for ‘chopping to kill’ and to slice the necks of disbelievers of their radical Sunni Islam.
The group also had the makings for pipe bombs – sparkler dust, hundreds of match heads and chemicals including hydrogen peroxide – that were intended, as Ibrahim put it, to ‘wage violent jihad’.
Their plan involved buying their supplies from Bunnings. They got the recipe from the infamous al-Qaeda magazine article ‘How to make a bomb in the kitchen of your mom’. Ibrahim revealed during the trial that he believed it was ‘fine for me to kill Australians’ because Muslims have been killed in wars involving Australia.
‘It’s not hard to kill a person with a machete. It just takes one slice to the neck,’ he said in his police interview. He later said: ‘I wanted to make sure that the casualties would be high. The bigger the better. The bigger the more terror is achieved, and that’s the point.
He said their plan was retaliation for Australia’s involvement in financing ‘the war against Islamic State’, and they wanted to send a ‘clear message’ to the Government.
‘I believed that if I could do a terrorist attack here then that would prevent the Australian government from financing the war against Islamic State and it would send a clear message to the Australian public about the damage….
‘The loss of lives, that occurs in the Muslim world where the Australian government is financing the war against Islamic State,’ he told the court. ‘The whole point of jihad is martyrdom,’ Ibrahim added.
The plot was foiled on December 22, 2016 by police who had been listening to their preparations and watching as they carried out reconnaissance at Federation Square. During his arrest, Chaarani asked police to ‘make me a martyr’, officers revealed.
Hamza joined in December 2016, but plans between Ibrahim, Mohamed and Chaarani had been on foot since at least October. Mohamed and Chaarani had tried in 2015 to go overseas and fight with Islamic State.
Chaarani said he wanted to ‘follow the same path’ as Hamza and Ibrahim’s cousin Nabil Abbas who, it was revealed during the trial, had died fighting with the terrorist organization.

November 20, 2018 at 10:31 pmYes, we need to start deporting Imams and all Islamic Leaders. But how do we do this when we have anti-freedom of speech Socialists like the Labor Party & The Greens who allow Muslim MP’s into their party that swear their oath of allegiance on a Qur’an instead of a Bible?
We have to shutdown the Socialists political groups to stop Islam. And then we have the problem of many Christians wanting to be friends with Muslims that revere the Qur’an. Yes, many Christian Church leaders are doing the same thing as Socialists encouraging Muslims to grab power to destroy our country by replacing freedom with the rule of ‘Sharia Law’.
And we also have the problem of inferior thinking Psychologists and Psychiatrists the Shrinks that claim they are experts on human behaviour and they have done nothing to identify the serious danger of Islamic Mentality.
We now even have degree qualified Muslim Psychologists that revere the Qur’an and ‘Sharia Law’ now how stupid is that to award a degree to a person that rejects ‘Freedom Values’?
One of them in Sydney has even visited Iran in support of Iran. It’s all in my book ‘Insanity of Hate’ that most people are afraid to read lest they learn the truth.
We are fighting the whole bloody lot of nutcases opposing ‘Freedom Values’.
Most of our Universities don’t even support the eternal human right to 100% ‘Freedom of Speech’.
Every person that opposes 100% ‘Freedom of Speech’ is a public enemy of every person that values 100% ‘Freedom of Speech’ & 100% ‘Freedom of Choice’ & 100% ‘Freedom of Equality’.

November 19, 2018 at 11:16 pmI have only reached one solid conclusion after reading of hundreds of these events from around the world. The one antidote that might have a beneficial impact would be to take a very close look at the neighborhood and the mosque that the individuals were from. Remember the old saying that, ‘the apple doesn’t fall far from the Imam’.

November 19, 2018 at 10:10 pmMore raids in Melbourne this morning, three more of these islamic scumbags arrested and charged with planning to carry out a terrorist attack. 21, 26 and 30 year old Australian citizens of Turkish decent.
Appears the mohammedans are raising their ugly heads again.

November 19, 2018 at 12:33 pmThe ONLY way our people can be safe from violent Muslim attackers OBEYING BLOODTHIRSTY Quran commands is by deporting Muslims. There is no other way.
Linda Rivera says
November 19, 2018 at 12:30 pmMURDER for SEX.
Muslims SONS of the DEVIL believe that if they OBEY BLOODTHIRSTY Quran commands to SAVAGELY SLAUGHTER NON-Muslims that Muslim BARBARIAN SAVAGE, Warlord Mohammad’s CRUEL, Dark,Death god will REWARD them with ISLAMIC RAPE HEAVEN.
It all sounds so good to Muslims that Muslims don’t care that the Quran refers to the Muslim god as The Greatest Deceiver.
The Greatest Deceiver is unable to give Muslims ANYTHING.

November 19, 2018 at 7:05 amThe uglier these Muslum mongrels are (on the outside), the more violent they are. I wonder if the government will notice this & start to offer free cosmetic surgery as a way to deter terrorism? Unfortunately, they are just as ugly on the inside- won’t work.

November 19, 2018 at 6:30 amSo, did they get thrown in jail? If so, the other inmates are likely to have a go at them. By the time they’ve finished, these animals will not smile or breed ever again.
Now THAT would be justice!
I suppose the loony left will blame Bunnings for this

November 19, 2018 at 3:20 amthese whatever they are all attended the Islamic Centre in Melbourne same as the other dead idiot run by the same Iman that condemned PM Morrison and Dutton s comments.about Islam.The Iman also has connections to previous events in Melbourne.The Government needs to start clearing out some of these Imans and anyone associated with them and if they are Australian Citizens stop all welfare entitlements.Time to get down to the level they operate at and if it means getting dirty do so this is an attack on society and shpuld be treated as such.

But alas, as they have mental health issues we will send them to a minimum security prison with protection and the obligatory Halal meals and prayer rooms

November 19, 2018 at 2:04 amThey lost their moral compass I’m afraid. When I say moral compass I mean the Holy Spirit. Just goes to show that there are consequences concerning atheism.

November 18, 2018 at 10:36 pmI used to have respect for Australia. It’s a different country now. Good luck.
martelsson says
November 18, 2018 at 10:35 pmNo – we are not safe from terrorism, and until these people live their lives in fear of us no one will be free of terrorism. Islam has always been a death cult, and this is especially the case today when a Muslim becomes a ‘good Muslim’. A good and faithful Muslim is a monster.
cat says
November 18, 2018 at 10:34 pmAfter jail, deportation to a monster shia mus slum country that hate sunni monsters so that they can be decapitated by the machete. That would be wonderful karma for these three monster mus slums. The Aussies dodged and missed a bullet this time. Good luck in the future if you do not start banning all mus slum immigration and start to deport the monsters.
