The Islamic Youth Movement has denied having any links to Al Qaeda and says it is considering legal action against the Four Corners [Walls] program. In a statement released early this morning, the group rejects allegations it is helping coordinate any kind of terrorist network inside Australia and says it is being unfairly targeted.
The organisation argues that while Four Corners had produced excellent reports in the past, it has now inflamed hatred of Arabs and Muslims by spreading what it calls the "farcical" propaganda of security agencies.
[Actually Four Corners [Walls,] excellent reports or not, are simply a government propaganda machine, for good or for evil. Take your pick!]
