Fishing expedition pays off

But what he actually implied was that there is no proof that Bin Laden was the culprit in his mind. Fair enough because that is what a lot of people actually think too. So what is the difference between us and him? He was raided and a fishing expedition took place in his home giving the authorities material that was otherwise private and confidential.

AUSTRALIA: MELBOURNE: A man whose home was targeted by ASIO in fishing raids this year is facing fraud charges along with a co-accused who is linked to firearms offences.

Seems if ASIO pilfer through people's affairs they do come up with some material that they can use against the victimised in a court of law. Then they can go on to exploit the very condition they sought.

This material is intended to verify the claims made by ASIO and the propaganda is used to raises their stakes, that those who were victimized were terrorists.

At least one of those charged is an associate of Abdul Nacer Benbrika, a Muslim fundamentalist preacher. Mr Benbrika was criticised recently when he defended Osama bin Laden as a "great man". His Melbourne home was also raided, in June, by ASIO and police.

But what he actually implied was that there is no proof that Bin Laden was the culprit in his mind. Fair enough because that is what a lot of people actually think too. So what is the difference between us and him? He was raided and a fishing expedition took place in his home giving the authorities material that was otherwise private and confidential.

Fadal Sayadi, 25, and Aiman Joud, 20, both of Melbourne, are accused of obtaining property by deception, a charge believed to relate to the use of an allegedly stolen credit card, and of an attempt to commit an indictable offence.

A spokesman for the pair said they would plead not guilty.

But out comes the dirt before the trial from SMH

Joud is also charged with breaching a suspended jail sentence. He was sentenced to one month's jail in January after pleading guilty to car stealing. He was also convicted of receiving and handling stolen goods.

The cases against Sayadi and Joud are set for mention on September 6 and are expected to be heard at a later date.

Then why has his alleged priors been publicised in the Sydney Morning Herald this morning?

Houses raided over 'possible' political attack plans?

"Furthermore, nothing is reasonable about a raid on people's homes because for an alleged possibility. For those sorts of enquiries one should approach a 'soothsayer' and if you get the all clear only then should they approach people via the front door with the appropriate warrant to search one's home. A warrant based on concrete evidence that has been filtered by a juge or magistrate of the court to see whether the material is frivolous or vexatious."
