As terrorist plots go, it's got to be one of the more unusual — an Australian teenager discussed packing a kangaroo full of explosives and painting it with the Islamic State's symbol before setting it loose on police officers, a Melbourne court heard on Thursday.

Sevdet Besim, 19, allegedly talked to a British teenager about the plot, which included plans to behead or run over at least one police officer during a parade on Anzac Day — an Australian remembrance day for veterans and soldiers killed in conflict.

The British boy, who cannot be named because he is only 15, was given a life sentence by a court in northern England in October 2015, after being convicted of sending thousands of messages to Besim and instructing him in a terrorist plot "shocking in its brutality and scope......"

Seems quality of education is dropping all around us, our worthless matric exams and now this! Death camps being measured on pass rates as well these days or what?!?
 
:mad:
Arzeholes and animal abusers. May they be cursed
 
What a joke, but then again Hamas has trained donkeys to run toward Israeli checkpoints and blow themselves up

So maybe he just copied the idea from them?

And Israel use birds as spies. No one is innocent.

No no no, thanks for the correction! I didn't think it looked right as I typed it but went ahead anyway :D
 
Don't forget dolphins and whales,

And tortoise's and cats with AK47's

Didn't the Soviets use giant squid and the Allies dolphins? I seem to remember... oh wait. Thinking of Red Alert 2... :p
 
How do you even approach an "exploding kangaroo" in order to "using"/use it (as per the heading)?
