ISIS's weirdest Western jihadi: Australian 17-year-old who vows to fly Islamist flag over Buckingham Palace and now calls himself Abu Khaled (but his family call him 'idiot') Sydney teenage Islamic State jihadist, Abdullah Elmir, 17, has been condemned by relatives over a chilling new video Elmir, who calls himself Abu Khaled, also vows revenge on Australian PM Tony Abbott and President Obama, flanked by ISIS fighters Titled 'Message Of The Mujahid 4', the video is full of threats and taunts against the US-led coalition combating ISIS 'We will not put down our weapons until we reach your lands,' he says, in a message 'especially' for Australia Elmir claims ISIS will fly a black flag at Buckingham Palace and the White House in the future Ginger-haired Australian jihadist Abdullah Elmir, 17, has been condemned by his relatives over a chilling video in which he declares ISIS will not stop their murderous campaign 'until the black flag is flying high in every single land'. In a propaganda video for the terror group published on YouTube, the young white, Sydney-born man calling himself Abu Khaled from Australia is flanked by other ISIS fighters. The jihadist goes on to claim that ISIS are going to put a 'black flag on top of Buckingham Palace' and the White House. Elmir reportedly told his mother he was 'going fishing' when he disappeared from his home in Bankstown, west Sydney, in June. Elmir and his friend Feiz are believed to have made their way to Syria and Iraq after crossing the border from Turkey, where they were last known to have contacted family members. They travelled via Perth, with stops in Malaysia and Thailand. 'What a stupid idiot,' an unnamed relative told the Daily Telegraph. 'We never associated with him, that guy was brainwashed, I don't know what these kids get into.' 'They don't know how to fight... they should be getting an education and building this country up.' He begins the video by saying 'this message I deliver to you the people of America, this message I deliver to you the people of Britain and this message I deliver especially to you the people of Australia'. Titled 'Message Of The Mujahid 4', the video which is 1.43 minutes long is full of threats and taunts to the US-led coalition that recently began air strikes on ISIS targets in Syria and Iraq. 'I say this about your coalition: you threaten us with your countries, bring every nation that you wish to us, bring every nation that you want to come and fight us. Whether it's 50 nations or 50 thousand nations it means nothing to us,' Elmir says. Reading from a script, a black and white scarf wrapped around his head and an assault rifle in his hand, he warns: 'Bring your planes bring everything you want to use because it will not harm us because we have Allah which is something you do not have.' A spokesman for Prime Minister Tony Abbott said: 'This video again highlights the threat posed by ISIL.' 'As the Prime Minister has said on many occasions, ISIL is a threat that reaches out to Australia and our allies and partners.' ISIL is another name for ISIS. Elmir's family told the Sydney Morning Herald in June they were devastated their son had been 'brainwashed'. As he finishes his diatribe the men all cheer and chant in Arabic His family's lawyer Zali Burrows told the Australian Associated Press: 'The family went to the media today as a plea to the government to bring their boy back. 'We know they have the intelligence to pinpoint him. 'The concern is that he’s being used as a tracking device to gather further intelligence, to see where he's actually going to go.' Ms Burrows questioned how Elmir was not stopped by Federal Police, who were thought to be monitoring him. On Sunday, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop announced Australia will send its special forces into Iraq to fight against Islamic State. Elmir's video was published one day after the announcement. 'Is it not apparent to you how are these victories are possible?,' he asks. 'It comes only from Allah and that is why these small numbers of soldiers that we have we take these massive victories. 'And to the leaders, to the Obama, to Tony Abbott, I say to you this: these weapons that we have, these soldiers will not stop fighting, we will not put down our weapons until we reach your lands, until we take the head of every tyrant and until the black flag is flying high in every single land.' Former Sydney boxer Mohamed Elomar posted photos of himself holding up decapitated heads on Twitter 'We will keep on fighting and we will fight you and defeat you,' he states. As his hate-filled diatribe finishes he begins chanting in Arabic and the fighters around him join in. Monash University terror expert Professor Greg Barton said Abu Khaled was an unknown quantity. 'The big thing is this is the third time Australia's been clearly in the frame,' Prof Barton said.
