Sharpening defences against the blade of terrorism : Comments

By Muhammad Faizal Bin Abdul Rahman, published 12/10/2016

Daesh's calls for more lone wolf attacks – including with the use of knife tactics – buttress the larger strategy of utilising returning foreign fighters.

The above linked article by Sofia Patel (ASPI)is basically lifted from a 2015 article published in The Guardian June 2015 by Anne Manne , whose metier mostly consists of books on motherhood and the care of children, which of course goes hand-in-hand with counter terrorism :)

As an Aussie - we all wish to live in peace.

Since 1950's we have seen many cultures, creeds and religions assimilate with Aussie culture.

As such all immigrants have welcomed Aussie culture and continue to live in peace. We all have friends of differing cultures, creeds and religion and faiths.

My Muslim friends continually tell me - any act of terrorism is not of their faith.

So, my question must be - what part of their religion/credo states that it permits any act of terrorism be committed on any innocent Westener as a credo to their tenants of faith?

I note also we currently have two 16 year olds allegedly charged for acts of terrorism. Those living in this area and follow local newspapers do ask a pertinent question "what level of advise from legal authorities assistance did you seek for your child when you knew his thoughts being as to committing an act of terror on an innocent citizen of Australia, like not seen before"?

Obviously none - and shame on you as a parent of a young child who you could have sought so much assistance and received help from Australian departments - all free of charge.

I note also I haven't heard anything from any Mufti or Imran stating "this allegation of terror act has nothing to do with our teachings"?

Time for Government representatives - on all sides - to call out acts of terrorism for what it is. Time also for relative Court Judges to get serious with time of sentencing.

Australia currently has a level of "probable" for terrorist activity .... so does that mean we all "wait" for an attack before level updated to "serious".

Man Monis - Lindt Café siege - has left a tragic legacy in all of our minds and hearts forever. If one googles relative history for this guy, he shouldn't have been awarded any status in Australia, we were warned, those warnings not heeded by relative authorities.

Shameful

Its unbelievable that foreign fighters who fought with Isis are not denied re-entry
to Australia.

Is it that we are ham strung by our law system that requires witnesses to
these people actualy fighting with Isis.

Where the hell can those witnesses be found, certainly not amongst their Isis
comrades.

I think in a time of combat where there is enough suspicion that someone has
been fighting with Isis that should be enough for them to be deported by the government without going through the law courts.

Anyone who deliberately refuses to stand for the Australian Anthem
barring the old and the sick should be treated with suspicion and stripped of their
Australian citizenship, except for the Aboriginals who are Australians by right of
ancestory
