Osama and Me

Osama & Me
Cover story: Osama & Me - The remarkable story
of Robyn Mary Hutchinson,
the surfie chick who joined the jihad.
What a story.

The life and times of Rabiah Hutchinson are quite remarkable as told in this week’s issue of -The Weekend Australian Magazine.

Hutchinson, who grew up in Mudgee in NSW and Sydney’s northern beaches has transformed herself in her lifetime from surfie chick to a woman who has embraced radical Islam and is deemed a threat to national security because of her links to al-Qa’ida, the Taliban and Jemaah Islamiah (JI).

The magazine features an extract from a book on Hutchinson’s life - The Mother of Mohammed: by Sally Neighbour, an extract which also includes some fascinating details about the early political experiences of Osama bin Laden.
