In the last ten years, around 200 people worldwide have been murdered by what could arguably be called "white nationalists." None in Australia. In the same period, around 100,000 people have been stoned to death, had their throats cut, been thrown off buildings, shot, drowned in cages, or been blown to bits by Muslim extremists. Six of them in Australia. So if you are trying to equate Islamic extremism with white nationalist extremism, the comparison does not fit.
If white nationalism is becoming more violent, what is the surprise there? We live in a country where white achievement is constantly belittled, our history fabricated by those who hate us and then taught to our children as fact, our elected politicians ignore our concerns over our changing demographics to chase the "immigrant vote", and where serious ethnic related crime, widespread welfare abuse and now terrorism is becoming more common.
The only thing now preventing the rise of more violent right wing extremism is the growth of anti immigrant parties in the western world that has shocked the long established political parties with their see-no-evil political consensus on non white immigration.
One of the most fundamental laws of human nature is that birds of a feather stick together and they don't like it when another group of birds invade their territory. This hostility is mitigated if the invading group has morals and values similar to that of the host populations. But where the minority group has values diametrically opposed to that of the host group some form of acceptance can be accommodated if the immigrant group does not try to get in the faces of the host group.
But when the immigrant group openly declares it's hostility to the host group and engages in anti social behaviour, especially attacking members of the host group, and the leaders of the immigrant group do not empathically disown and denounce their own violent members, then you can bet that some of the more hot headed of the host group will become violent towards the immigrant group.
