Islam not on trial, Sydney jury told

August 11, 2008
A JUDGE has told a jury that the Muslim religion is not on trial, after a man pleaded not guilty to terrorism charges.

Bilal Saadallah Khazaal today pleaded not guilty to making a document connected with assistance in a terrorist act knowing of that connection, between September 20 and September 23, 2003 in Sydney.

The document is titled Provisions on the Rules of Jihad - Short Judicial rulings and organisational instructions for fighters and Mujahideen against infidels.
Now there's an idea, put the Islamic ideology on trial. If it's found guilty of inciting violence, then it might spare us this endless procession of terrorist trials.
