Islamic extremism in our primary schools: Two Australian students under ten years old revealed to have threatened to BEHEAD teachers
“Islamic extremism” – sheesh. Redundant much? It’s Islam. Period. 1,400 years of it.Two students younger than 10 have threatened to behead teaches in two frightening instances believed to be inspired by Islamist militant movements.
They follow reports 10 boys at an inner west Sydney primary school had been deemed ‘at risk’ of becoming radicalised, according to Daily Telegraph.
Students as young as nine had reportedly started to show signs of extreme radicalisation, and some as young as five were also being monitored.
Sources inside the education field revealed the behaviour of children who had visited war zones in the Middle East were among those being closely watched.
‘I had students coming into class flying flags from overseas, be it the Syrian flag and possibly the ISIS flag. It looked to me like the ISIS flag,’ she told the Mark Latham Outsiders program.
‘Some students would act out beheadings with their fingers across their necks,’ she told the Daily Telegraph
Earlier this year a jury was told a 12-year-old boy attended a Sydney protest holding a sign saying ‘Behead all those who insult the prophet’.
He was one of two boys who pleaded not guilty to doing an act or acts between October 6 and October 12 in 2016 in Sydney in preparation for a terrorist act.
