Albanese has promised "a substantial update of Australia’s counter-terrorism laws" to counter "rightwing extremists", but has not done anything to counter the threat of the Muslim Brotherhood in Australia

 by Ganesh Sahathevan 


The Guardian reported: 


Anthony Albanese has flagged a substantial update of Australia’s counter-terrorism laws as he warned of the dangers posed by rightwing extremists and “so-called sovereign citizens”.

The prime minister said after a national cabinet meeting in Canberra on Friday that the “premeditated, calculated murder” of two police officers and a neighbour in rural Queensland in December showed the need for action to protect community safety.

He also expressed hopes of making progress by the middle of the year on implementing a national firearms register.


Meanwhile Albanese has not done anything about the far right Muslim Brotherhood., which is considered a terrorist threat in even Saudi Arabia.

Even Saudi Arabia considers the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist threat, but not the Australian Government - Australian Government designates The Base , but not the Muslim Brotherhood, vote chasing seems to have trumped intelligence yet again

The Arab Weekly reported in May 2020:


The Saudi ministry of education is pushing ahead with efforts to roll back Muslim Brotherhood influence in the country’s educational system.

The authorities recently decided to remove teachers who persist in teaching extremist and intolerant ideas which are inherited from the previous school curricula dominated by Muslim Brotherhood thinking.

Such ideas, they point out, run counter the current Saudi choice of cultural and religious values of openness and moderation.

The Brotherhood's leader Shiek Yusof Qaradawi and the Muslim Brotherhood are well represented in Australia. The Grand Mufti Of Australia Dr Abu Ibrahim has been reported to have links to Qaradawi (see story from The Australian above) and is a member of the International Union of Muslim Scholars, which Qaradawi led until vey recently.




The Brotherhood has a history of instigating and organising jihadi attacks. While the Australian Government has designated The Base, it has refused to designate the Muslim Brotherhood despite its history of close to a century of terrorist activity. It appears that the fear of losing the Muslim vote has again trumped intelligence (including intelligence in the public domain).

Ann Aly's reasons for wanting The Base designated a terrorist organisation apply equally to the Muslim Brotherhood-Meanwhile BASE members and all taxpayers are entitled to clarification about her tax payer funded charity PAVE's finances, and why it is of concern to persons in Malaysia

 by Ganesh Sahathevan 


Anne Aly believes the government needs to do more to protect 
Australia's security.(ABC News: Herlyn Kaur)
From Ann Aly, according to the ABC:"What we've seen is that The Base very much operates as a terrorist organisation in the way in which they recruit, in the way in which they communicate, the way in which they circumvent security."
It is surprising that "we've (not) seen that" the Muslim Brotherhood, which is active in Australia; is not also a terrorist organisation and that Aly and friends are not also demanding that the Muslim Brotherhood be banned. 
Meanwhile, Aly has yet to provide answers to these issues revealed in 2017, which concern he charity PAVE's financial management. The charity is funded by taxpayers.Neither has she explained why queries from this writer about PAVE were sent to a person or persons in Malaysia.

Anne Azza Aly


Labor MP Anne Azza Aly is founding chairperson of People Against Violent Extremism (PAVE), a charity registered with the Australian Charities And Not For Profits Commission.

 As of November 2016 PAVE's statutory filing of financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2015  remained overdue.When this was made known to media in November last year by this writer,  she responded via an email demanding to know what this writer could do to help her meet her reporting obligations (I kid you not).

When the accounts were finally lodged, the accounts showed that some AUD 210,000 in government funding was explained away in just two items; "Other Expenses" and a "Surplus",which has presumably been retained by Ms Aly.

INCOME STATEMENT

For the Period 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015 (if different provide range below)
to

Government Grants208,732
Donations and bequests2,200
Other Income/Receipts7,530
Total Income/Receipts218,462

Other expenses/payments118,844

Net surplus/deficit91,487

No auditor would pass this set of accounts,yet the AG 's Department seems to have done precisely that,for  PAVE has reporting obligations to the Commonwealth AG. 
As for Aly, silence prevails on all matters raised, including her connections with Malaysia.

2015 Financial Report

"Other" in accounting terms means miscellaneous and that is how Anne Aly MP explains spending the bulk of a government grant.


Other expenses/payments118,844


The quantum of the next largest item is only $ 8,131. Consequently, more than 93% of outflows have not been identified.
The ultimate destination of the  surplus of $ 91487,or 42% of the total inflows  is also not  explained.
Therefore only 3.7 % of the total income of the charity (almost all of which is in the form of a  government  grant of about $210,000)  is accounted for.
