Video of masked militant with 'Australian accent'


SYDNEY, (AFP) - Australian intelligence officers are studying a video broadcast on Arab television showing a masked militant with an apparently Australian accent making terror threats, officials said.


The video, shown on Australian television after first being aired on Dubai-based Al-Arabiya television, shows the man holding an automatic rifle and warning of attacks while criticising British Prime Minister Tony Blair and US President George W. Bush.

"The honourable sons of Islam will not just let you kill our families in Palestine, Afghanistan, Kashmir and the Balkans, Indonesia, the Caucasus and elsewhere," the militant says in what local media called an Australian accent.

"It is time for us to be equals. As you kill us, you'll be killed. As you bomb us, you will be bombed."

I guess Australia will need to be "chipped" to track all movements.

1. Perfect timing.
--The video comes amid controversy over comments last week by a radical Muslim cleric in Australia whose students have reportedly undergone military training in camps run by Islamic militants in Pakistan and Afghanistan.--
