Australian suspected of Syria attack!

The man, referred to by multiple jihadist social media accounts as ''Abu Asma' al-Australi'', died following a car-bomb attack. Photos of the man have been circulating on social media sites. Some sites were reporting that the man was from Queensland and had travelled to Syria with his wife before sending her back to Australia a short time ago. A spokesman for the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said the Australian government was aware of reports that an Australian had killed himself in a suicide bombing in eastern Syria but could not confirm the speculation. He said the government was concerned Australians were fighting in Syria, including some with al-Qaeda-linked Al Nusra. ''This is being handled as a security and intelligence matter. It is the long-standing practice of Australian governments not to comment on security and intelligence matters,'' he said. I would just like to give a clap to our department of foreign affairs and trade and also to ASIO and our foregin affairs minister who have just realized what the Australian people have know for years. How long had people from Australia been going to Syria pretending that they are doing aid work but really end up fighting. Just look at Roger Abbas. This was taken from the herald sun last year: "The Department of Foreign Affairs is investigating reports Roger Abbas, from Meadow Heights, was killed in the war-torn nation after news of his death ran rife on social media. Islamic Society of Victoria vice-president Baha Yehia said Mr Abbas, 23, went to Syria alone, through the Turkish border, to volunteer as an aid worker last month. Mr Yehia said there were conflicting reports as to how he had died. "We believe he was caught in the crossfire while he was doing aid work," he said. It is unknown exactly where or when Mr Abbas died, but it is believed to be in recent days." We never have and never will believe that these people actually go to do aid work when they are clearly working with terrorists. And now our government thinks that they have caught onto something the people have known from the beginning. We should not be allowing people to go into Syria, that we know are going under false pretenses to fight a jihadist war. Lisa.
