Radical Sheik In Australia May Be Charged For Inciting Violence

In Australia, Federal Police are investigating a series of DVD's featuring radical Sheik Feiz Mohammed, the leader of the Global Islamic Youth Centre in Sydney. Called the "Death Series", the DVDs urge young Muslims to to sacrifice themselves for Islam, talk of a Muslim killing a Jew and ridicule Jews as pigs. Today's Sydney Morning Herald reports that Australia's Acting Attorney-General, Kevin Andrews, labeled the preachings an "importation of hatred" and said an investigation had been launched. He told reporters, "There is an offense in Australia, in broad terms, for a person to incite violence against another person or group of people based on political opinion or religious grounds or belief."
