For me the incorrect spelling of lose is the give-away. Someone who rarely uses computers would not make that mistake, and certainly not anyone educated and over 30 (because they are unlikely to ever taunt people as "looooooooosers!!!!").

Unfortunately it is just hate fill **** from someone who, to be fair, may actually believe that the Australian cause in Iraq is a wrong one. Still hate filled **** though.
Trooth, here is a neologism for you: "esurgent".

Plenty of second-generation Moslems, as well as kids of rich Moslem families studying in West under student visas, are completely immersed in Western lingo and quite familiar with Western cultural references. Yet they may be completely mullah - more mullah in their faded-hip jeans and plugged into iPods selves than the hapless bearded taxi-driver in salwar kamiz. In many cases the process of radicalization actually starts in Londonistan and Torontabad, the visit to Pakistan just cements the process. Hence "esurgents".
