September 18, 2014  800 Australian police thwart ISIL beheading plot   USA Today  Police said they thwarted a plot to carry out beheadings in Australia by supporters of the radical Islamic State group by detaining 15 people and raiding more than a dozen properties across Sydney on Thursday.  More than 800 Australian officers raided dozens of properties in the suburbs of Sydney on Thursday, in an operation to thwart an apparent Islamic State terror plot to carry out random attacks on the public, police said. Prime Minister Tony Abbott confirmed to reporters that a senior group leader in the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, was calling on supporters to carry out beheadings. But professor of International Relations and Security Studies at Murdoch University Samuel Makinda sees no ISIS threat to Australia or other nations outside the Middle East while Muslims in the Sydney suburb of Lakemba protested the raids.
