WAR ON ISIS: FIGHTBACK AGAINST ISLAMIC MILITANTS
Is this ISIS's weirdest Western jihadi? The dorky Australian 17-year-old who vows to fly Islamist flag over Buckingham Palace and calls himself Abu Khaled (but his family call him 'idiot')
In a propaganda video for the terror group published on
YouTube, the young white, Sydney-born man calling himself Abu Khaled
from Australia is flanked by other ISIS fighters. The jihadist goes on
to claim that ISIS are going to put a 'black flag on top of Buckingham
Palace' and the White House.
Titled
'Message Of The Mujahid 4', the video which is 1.43 minutes long is full
of threats and taunts to the US-led coalition that recently began air
strikes on ISIS targets in Syria and Iraq.
Elmir's family told the Sydney Morning Herald in June they were devastated their son had been 'brainwashed'
His
family's lawyer Zali Burrows told the Australian Associated Press: 'The
family went to the media today as a plea to the government to bring
their boy back.
Ten days ago, the Islamic State's official magazine, Dabiq, also singled out Australians.
Sharrouf
and Elomar have repeatedly taunted the authorities on social media with
photos of alleged beheadings of Syrian soldiers.

- Abdullah Elmir, 17, condemned by relatives after appearing in ISIS video
- White Muslim convert is seen flanked by jihadists while ranting at West
- Titled 'Message Of The Mujahid 4', video taunts US-led coalition fighting ISIS
- Now calling himself Abu Khaled, Elmir left his Sydney home in June this year
- Australian national told his mother he was going fishing but never returned
- Now relatives brand him a 'stupid idiot', adding he has been brainwashed
Relatives
of a ginger Australian jihadist have condemned him for appearing in an
Islamic State propaganda video in which he says the terror group will
not stop their murderous campaign 'until the black flag is flying high
in every single land'.
In chilling footage published on YouTube, white Sydney-born Muslim convert Abdullah Elmir, 17, calls himself 'Abu Khaled from Australia' and is seen flanked by other militants.
Speaking
directly to the camera, the jihadist tells Western leaders their
efforts to defeat ISIS will fail, adding that the terrorists aim to
raise their black flag over Buckingham Palace and the White House.
When
he disappeared from his home in Bankstown, west Sydney, in June, Elmir
reportedly told his mother he was 'going fishing' but never returned.
Now, after seeing him in the video, relatives have branded him a 'stupid
idiot', adding that he has been 'brainwashed'.

to have contacted family members. They travelled via Perth, with stops
in Malaysia and Thailand.
'What a stupid idiot,' an unnamed relative told the Daily Telegraph.

'We never associated with him, that guy was brainwashed, I don't know what these kids get into.'
'They don't know how to fight... they should be getting an education and building this country up.'
He
begins the video by saying 'this message I deliver to you the people of
America, this message I deliver to you the people of Britain and this
message I deliver especially to you the people of Australia'.

As he finishes his diatribe the men all cheer and chant in Arabic
'I
say this about your coalition: you threaten us with your countries,
bring every nation that you wish to us, bring every nation that you want
to come and fight us. Whether it's 50 nations or 50 thousand nations it
means nothing to us,' Elmir says.
Reading
from a script, a black and white scarf wrapped around his head and an
assault rifle in his hand, he warns: 'Bring your planes bring everything
you want to use because it will not harm us because we have Allah which
is something you do not have.'
A spokesman for Prime Minister Tony Abbott said: 'This video again highlights the threat posed by ISIL.'
'As the Prime Minister has said on many occasions, ISIL is a threat that reaches out to Australia and our allies and partners.'
ISIL is another name for ISIS.
Australian terrorist Khaled Sharrouf is wanted by the Federal Police for his activities in Syria
Former Sydney boxer Mohamed Elomar posted photos of himself holding up decapitated heads on Twitter
'We know they have the intelligence to pinpoint him.
'The
concern is that he’s being used as a tracking device to gather further
intelligence, to see where he's actually going to go.'
Ms Burrows questioned how Elmir was not stopped by Federal Police, who were thought to be monitoring him.
On
Sunday, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop announced Australia will send its
special forces into Iraq to fight against Islamic State.
Elmir's video was published one day after the announcement.
'Is it not apparent to you how are these victories are possible?,' he asks.
'It comes only from Allah and that is why these small numbers of soldiers that we have we take these massive victories.
'And
to the leaders, to the Obama, to Tony Abbott, I say to you this: these
weapons that we have, these soldiers will not stop fighting, we will not
put down our weapons until we reach your lands, until we take the head
of every tyrant and until the black flag is flying high in
every single land.'

MUSLIM CONVERT KILLS SOLDIER IN CANADA AFTER HIS PASSPORT WAS CONFISCATED AS HE TRIED TO LEAVE AND JOIN ISIS IN SYRIA
A
young convert to Islam who killed a Canadian soldier in a hit-and-run
had been on the radar of federal investigators, who feared he had
jihadist ambitions and seized his passport when he tried to travel to
Turkey, authorities said Tuesday.
Public
Safety Minister Steven Blaney said the attack Monday was 'clearly
linked to terrorist ideology.' Quebec Police spokesman Guy Lapointe said
the act was deliberate and that one of the two soldiers was in uniform.
Police
said the suspect, Martin Couture-Rouleau, called 911 to report his
hit-and-run as police chased him in the Quebec city of
Saint-Jean-Sur-Richelieu.
He
later was shot dead by police after his car flipped over into a ditch
and he brandished a knife as he exited his car. A second soldier
suffered minor injuries in the attack.
THREE U.S. TEENAGE GIRLS STOLE $2,000 FROM PARENTS AND SET OFF TO JOIN ISIS - BUT WERE CAUGHT IN GERMANY AFTER FBI TIP OFF
Three
teenage girls from suburban Denver may have been trying to join Islamic
State militants in Syria after stealing their parents' money and flying
to Germany, authorities said Tuesday.
The
girls — two sisters, ages 17 and 15, and their 16-year-old friend —
were reported missing after they skipped school Friday, but the families
had no indication of where they might have gone, said Glenn Thompson,
bureau chief of the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Department
Suspicion arose when the sisters' father realized his daughters were gone, along with $2,000 and their passports.
They
were stopped at the Frankfurt, Germany, airport over the weekend by FBI
agents and returned to Colorado where they were reunited with their
families, an FBI spokeswoman said.
'We will keep on fighting and we will fight you and defeat you,' he states.
As his hate-filled diatribe finishes he begins chanting in Arabic and the fighters around him join in.
Monash University terror expert Professor Greg Barton said Abu Khaled was an unknown quantity.
'The big thing is this is the third time Australia's been clearly in the frame,' Prof Barton said.
A
month ago, Islamic State spokesman Abu Mohammad Al-Adnani urged his
followers to murder people of a number of nationalities, including
Australians.
'Smash
his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over
with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him,'
Al-Adnani said.

'At
this point of the crusade against the Islamic State, it is very
important that attacks take place in every country that has entered into
the alliance against the Islamic State, especially the US, UK, France,
Australia and Germany,' it said.
Prime
Minister Tony Abbott explained on Wednesday that 200 members of the
Australian special forces had been waiting in the United Arab Emirates
since mid-September to take on ISIS because Baghdad had not offered them
formal legal protections.
And
Australia launched their first air strikes against Islamic State
targets inside the country earlier this month as part of the U.S.-led
coalition.
There
are thought to be over 100 Australians fighting with ISIS in the Middle
East, including Sydney-born friends Khaled Sharrouf and Mohamed Elomar.

And
on October 10, a young Australian named Abu Ousama, working as a combat
medic for a terror group in Syria, said he is still a 'true blue
Aussie' despite condoning the brutal beheadings by ISIS.
Ousama is living among rebel fighters for Jund al-Aqsa. He took part in an interview broadcast on 7News
by British photojournalist Tam Hussain who lived with the 1000 strong
Islamic battalion group, which is independent of ISIS but supports their
ideology.
'ISIS have taken this role of protecting the innocent Muslims of this country, of this land.
'So, they have to do what they need to do to make their state,' he said.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted the Attorney General's office, the Prime Minister and DFAT for comment on the latest video.
