Police are investigating allegations death threats were made towards a nun at Maronite College of the Holy Cross and Our Lady of Lebanon Maronite Catholic Church at Harris Park.
THE nerve. The sheer nerve of threatening children and staff outside their Catholic primary school.
How dare these cowards threaten to “slaughter the Christians” on the footpath outside the Our Lady of Lebanon Church in Harris Park.

WASHINGTON—The U.S. is tracking multiple terror plots based out of Syria that target the West—threats that current and former intelligence officials say have been traced to al Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate and not to Islamic State, the extremist group that has seized the world’s attention.
Disclosures about the plots, which include bombings, are raising new questions about whether U.S. military strategy focusing on Islamic State militants could end up missing part of the threat Western countries face from Syria.
4. Here is a subtitled version of the interrogation video of a captured Islamic State terrorist. While much of what he admits to is difficult to believe, it is fully in line with reports circulating about methods used by the Islamic State on its own recruits.
We are waiting on our own translation. Would be interesting to check it against this one.
5. Ezra Levant hosts a journalist who seems moderately aware of the issue of Muslim Canadian-passport holders going to fight for The Islamic State.
Ezra is also miffed again at Justin Trustfund for calling for an emergency meeting about Canada’s role in fighting the Islamic State and then not showing up for it. Clearly one of his handlers made him realize that what he would say would make him look worse than if he didn’t show up to his own emergency meeting. Which just goes to show you how amazingly stupid what he had to say, likely was.
Thank you everyone who commented and sent in links today.
Ebola outbreak: Health team ‘found dead’ in Guinea (BBC, Sept 18, 2014)
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-29256443
“Officials in Guinea searching for a team of health workers and journalists who went missing while trying to raise awareness of Ebola have found several bodies. A spokesman for Guinea’s government said the bodies included those of three journalists in the team. They went missing after being attacked on Tuesday in a village near the southern city of Nzerekore.
More than 2,600 people have now died from the Ebola outbreak in West Africa. It is the world’s worst outbreak of the deadly disease, with officials warning that more than 20,000 people could ultimately be infected.
The three doctors and three journalists disappeared after being pelted with stones by residents when they arrived in the village of Wome – near where the Ebola outbreak was first recorded. One of the journalists managed to escape and told reporters that she could hear the villagers looking for them while she was hiding.
A government delegation, led by the health minister, had been dispatched to the region but they were unable to reach the village by road because a main bridge had been blocked.
On Thursday night, government spokesman Albert Damantang Camara said eight bodies had been found, including those of three journalists. He said they had been recovered from the septic tank of a primary school in the village, adding that the victims had been “killed in cold blood by the villagers”.
The reason for the killings is unclear, but correspondents say many people in the region distrust health officials and have refused to co-operate with authorities, fearing that a diagnosis means certain death…”
#1 Growing up Lebanese in Sydney is hard. Growing up Lebanese with the surname Saleh is even harder. My entire life I have had to answer whether I was a Muslim, whether I found Ramadan hard, why I don’t wear a burqa …
But this isn’t about Muslim v Christian.
I thought this was about threatening children with beheading, not about Muselma-Me, but Muslim v Kufar, where the Muslim is the victim of the world.
How do people who grow up in Lebanon get treated?

” The fact is the better way of defending “minority rights” is to defend “ALL” human rights. Instead of remaining trapped by 19th century complexes of Dhimmis and religious minorities, the Lebanese (the Christians in particular) should grow up, become modern, and move into the 21st century by abandoning the notion that their first identity is a religious one. They should adopt the only identity we all have, which is simply our identity as humans.”
A secular society, or a religious one? Should be no contest.
Secular, does not mean in any ideal or form to be Socialist. Socialists destroy free speech, cluster sheeple, and steal from those who create wealth by 40% as their cut.
Socialists are the exact Reflection of Muslims- cowards before The State or cowards before Allah; who likewise listen to become outraged and offended on behalf of the living or the dead.

I like these clips off-the-beaten track and the way they frame the issues.
#1 Things like this are coming to all nations if we don’t stop the Islamic conquest and stop it fast.
Bombings in and near the Iraqi capital and a blast in the northern city of Kirkuk have killed at least 22 people.
The attacks come as security forces and allied Shi’ite militiamen and Sunni tribesmen fight to regain ground from militants led by the Islamic State (IS) jihadist group who overran swathes of the country in June.
In Baghdad, a car bomb exploded in the Shi’ite-majority Karrada district on Friday, killing at least eight people and wounding more than 20, while a roadside bomb in the Bayaa area killed four and wounded at least 11.
South of the capital, another car bomb near a market in Mahmudiyah killed at least two people and wounded seven, while a motorcycle bomb in central Kirkuk in the country’s north killed eight and wounded 13.
The day before, a suicide bombing, car bomb and shelling struck Shi’ite-majority areas of northern Baghdad, killing at least 28 people and wounding more than 60.
Accounts of those attacks varied and many of the victims were civilians, but two security officials said an army intelligence base where senior militants are jailed was among the targets.
In addition to the blasts and shelling, two more suicide bombers were arrested near the base before they could attack, officials said.
Sunni extremists often target members of Iraq’s Shi’ite majority, whom they consider heretics, and also frequently attack security forces.
The United States has carried out a more than five-week air campaign against the IS jihadists, while France has announced it will take part in strikes on them in Iraq as well.
