A woman in Adelaide who was studying to be a nurse has been found guilty of being a member of ISIS.
The Supreme Court in Australia returned a verdict of guilt against Zainab Abdirahman-Khalif this week, after only three hours of deliberations.
The woman is 23.
She had pleaded not guilty.

An Adelaide woman has been found guilty of membership of the Islamic State (ISIS) terror group in South Australia’s first terrorism trial.
A Supreme Court jury returned their verdict against Zainab Abdirahman-Khalif today after three hours of deliberations.
The 23-year-old and her supporters did not show any emotion as the guilty verdict was handed down.
Her lawyer, Bill Boucaut SC, asked for a six-week adjournment to obtain reports before a sentencing hearing, while Justice David Peek said she could be required to give evidence.
Abdirahman-Khalif’s supporters, who were present each day of the trial, covered their faces and said they did not wish to speak to waiting media in a fiery exchange outside court.
When asked if they accept the jury’s verdict, one responded: “You ask her yourself, don’t ask me… Am I working? Am I getting paid? You get paid, you go and ask,” while another told reporters she was not a terrorist.

Guess Australia had better get used to it. The newly elected “conservative” P.M. wants INDONESIA, a hot bed of Muslim terrorism to have FREE MOVEMENT with Australia!
Indonesia is the most populous muslum state on the face of the earth if the f’ing muslums from Indonesia immigrate to AUS en mass Australia will become Australistan overnight based on demographics alone.
What’s the difference? Australia is already filled with Botany Bay paddy-mic rejects.
The world (and humanity) doesn’t need any more islamic states and really doesn’t need any at all.
Do not like the thought of it.
Hope many Australians will wake up to it, but does not help having many brainless twits. Heard one woman tonight on news tonight would welcome the refugees.
SlowMoo probably wants to have a prominent place in history!
Prime Minister a fool. Hope Peter Dutton can stop most, robbed of his
position to be Prime Minister and the left still hound him.
Over 200 million Muslims in Indonesia
And another 20 million just a little further up in Malaysia.
If she has not gone through the FGM procedure, it should be arranged to be performed by a military gunnery sergeant.
This is NOT okay. I guess we are not always used to seeing women as jihadists, but unfortunately many are just as easily radicalized as their husbands and sons.
We had better be on the watch for female and child jihadis (the latter often duped by their elders).
This was brought home clearly to me a few years ago when a boy, about 11, approached an Israeli check point, acting rather strangely. One of the soldiers approached him, and, in an effort to comfort him, gave him a hug. Turned out the boy was provisioned with a bomb. After that, Hamas started using remote detonation.
But, but … but, what about Pap? You are SO much fun to laugh AT.
It will be appealed and Leftists loons will get her released for case being islamophobic !
They are following their perfect man – Moham-mad. And if you dare expose truth about him they will keel you !
just like the jihadis in Indianapolis are doing http://bit.ly/2rVCN7E
Muslims cannot face truth as they love to follow evil
When asked if they accept the jury’s verdict, one responded: “You ask her yourself, don’t ask me…
Interesting that the journos would ask about that. But why would anyone expect an ISIS member, or sympathizer, to accept it? Islamic values always trump kuffar laws.
What would Pap say? Especially after being tarred and feathered. TOO funny. Simply hilarious! Poor little litty spittoon is SO much fun to laugh AT.
It sounds more like some of them were paid to be there(in great leftomuslim tradition) and the journalists(sic!) were too stupid to catch on
She should never have been allowed to become a nurse. She would have had her pick of victims…more so if ISIS.If people would only read the koran, they would know how these people think.
Health services and especially nursing homes and operating theatres, food preparation and processing, water service, pharmacies, service stations, security, police armed forces, airports are ALL nectar to muslims as it is here that they can kill undetected and laugh their heads off over how easy it is. The fable of the scorpion(or snake) obviously had muslims in mind,.
Cannot send her back to kill others. Should be treated like a terrorist and hanged
Islamic immigration is a war crime
Australia may soon come to regret not having a death penalty
Oz regrets it already. Only the socialist would be communists and the greens and the allies of both, the muslims disagree.
islam will bring one.
Hi, I’m Fatima Al Jihadi and I’ll be your nurse for your stay in hospital kafir pig.
Not very nice to go into an occupation to save lives, yet supports killing
All muslims are spy’s and subversives. Deport them all, citizens or not.
