Someone sent a detailed, highly critical description of Abu Rafik’s school to AID in Canberra without consulting the Arabic interpreters or Mr Peter and the other teachers. The report included photos of rows and rows of mostly white-clad men and boys praying. But for the red sand and the dongas and razor wire, it could have been in Afghanistan. In the conclusion the report stated that the school had all the makings of a terrorist training camp, ironically fully funded by the Australian Government.

The school came to an abrupt end.

‘You are a dangerous man,’ Chris Jensen said to Abu Rafik in front of Dhurgham.‘One of those types who hype up suicide bombers with hashish and brainwashing talk. We won’t be giving visas to men like you, that’s for sure. If I see you with more than this puppy hanging off your words, I’ll slap you in solitary faster than you can say AllaAkbar. And if there is a riot over this, I’ll be blaming you.’

‘If there is a riot, you will have caused it!’ Dhurgham said, but he said the last two words in Arabic. Mr Chris looked at him coldly and Abu Rafik silenced him with an eyebrow.
