Meet the spiritual leader of Sydney’s pro-ISIS network
Today, ABC investigative reporter Sean Rubinsztein-Dunlop about Australia’s ISIS supporters, the spiritual leader who has flown under the radar for years – and the informant who risked his life to blow the whistle.
At the height of the Islamic State’s power in Syria, hundreds of Australians are thought to have joined their ranks.

Now, as ISIS once again gains a foothold in Syria, attacks are expected to rise in Australia.
Today, we speak to investigative reporter for the ABC Sean Rubinsztein-Dunlop about Australia’s ISIS supporters, the spiritual leader who has flown under the radar for years – and the informant who risked his life to blow the whistle.
