Australia targets those recruiting jihadis for Syria


When will Canada arrest those who are committing similar crimes here in Canada and also arrest those who have come back after committing terrorist acts in Syria?

Rachel Olding writing at  SundayMorningHerald:
Hamdi Alqudsi claims to live a quiet, modest life. Surviving on a disability pension and supposedly with less than $500 to his name, he lives in a small western Sydney home with one of his two wives, Carnita Matthews, who stirred controversy of her own in 2011, when she refused to remove her burqa for police conducting a random breath test and pursued the matter in court.

But police believe Mr Alqudsi, 39, is one of several Australians running sophisticated, expensive and illegal schemes to send young Australian men to Syria to fight with terrorists.

Mr Alqudsi was arrested on Tuesday and became the first Australian charged under the foreign incursion act since the conflict began, a breakthrough for police who believe about 100 Australians are fighting in Syria...........
