SYDNEY, May 25, 2006 (UPI via COMTEX) -- Police in Australia have again seized books advocating Islamist violence, the Daily Telegraph reported.
The newspaper found the books in stores in two Sydney suburbs last year.
Recently, the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions ruled that the books do not violate Australia's new sedition law -- part of a package aimed at curbing terrorism. That meant the books could legally be sold.
The books reportedly include arguments in favor of suicide bombings, violent jihad and anti-Australian activity.
