Isaak el Matari, 20, charged with planning a terror attack once proclaimed himself the 'General Commander of Islamic State Australia', court documents allege | sallyrawsthorne

A 20-year-old man charged with planning a terror attack in the Sydney CBD proclaimed himself the "General Commander of Islamic State Australia" and created a stronghold in the Blue Mountains from which to conduct "guerilla-style" attacks, court documents allege.

The 20-year-old remained in the cells during a brief mention of his case at Parramatta Local Court on Thursday morning. Mr el Matari is charged with knowingly being a member of IS, doing an act in preparation for a terror attack and making plans contrary to the so-called Foreign Fighter legislation. Home Affairs minister Peter Dutton on Tuesday said Mr el Matari’s alleged plan showed why the Morrison government must pass the proposed Temporary Exclusion Bill, which would give him wide-ranging powers to refuse any Australian citizen from returning for up to two years.

sallyrawsthorne 'Violent extremism does not represent followers of Islam.' You have to be blind and severely ignorant to think this is true. Islam is a uniquely dangerous ideology that has been responsible for countless terror attacks around the world recently. Ignoring this fact is harmful.

sallyrawsthorne This man is 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

sallyrawsthorne Well, he is now a jail bird, bit of a come down for him.

sallyrawsthorne I wouldn’t be surprised if more were around and locals joined or supported them - a lot goes on in the background. It doesn’t help that specific government related services are trying to manipulate & break people, turning them against humanity
