Iraq - Aussie Jake Bilardi, 18, suicide bomber, planned to bomb Melbourne, March 2015

[zwiebel]

18-year-old Australian teen Jake Bilardi, who is believed to have been killed carrying out a suicide bombing in Iraq on Wednesday, planned a 'string of bombings across Melbourne', it is being reported.

The images have not been verified, but reports from Iraq have claimed that 10 people had been killed and up to 30 injured in a wave of up to 21 suicide attacks on Wednesday.

An Islamic State-linked Twitter account lists Bilardi as one of the “martyrs” from the attacks.

Guardian Australia has found a now-deleted blog written under Bilardi’s nom-de-guerre, Abu Abdullah al-Australi, which appears to provide a chilling insight into how a precocious young man became obsessed with political injustices and embraced violent extremism as the answer.
