What do you condone Indy? Violence and hatred, judging by your posts you have very little regard for your fellow human beings. Provided you are sitting comfortably on your undeserved aged welfare, its a case of bugger the rest.

When people radicalise to the point of justifying,
promoting or threatening violence for their cause-
both the community and the government have a
responsibility to act.

Thos who display threatening behaviour, incite
hatred or promote the use of violence for their
cause require some form of intervention.

This can come from family, religious or community
leaders or law enforcement.

Communities play a vital role in helping people to
move away from violent extremism and intervene to
stop acts before they occur.

We've been lucky in this country thus far. Here we've
seen that over time people do fit in to the wider
Australian community leaving their unique cultural
influences behind. The amount of radicals in our
communities have been relatively small thanks to the
involvement of families, religious and community
leaders as well as law enforcement agencies.

Foxy,
The effect of radicals in this country has been small because of the intervention of the appropriate authorities and the unbelievable stupidity and ineptitude of the radicals.

Paul,
Gandhi used violence for his own ends and I doubt very much that he would have agreed with your assessment of him.

Yes Foxy the intervention of the police and the sentencing of the Bil Al gang
to very long terms in the Max Security gaol I believe discouraged
the development of Rotherham UK style gangs.
The police had the support of a very brave young lady .

Many are not aware that the Islamic belief is that Moslems are subject
to Sharia law, not the law of the country where they may live.
Our law and courts must tackle that belief and make it clear that idea
does not apply in this country.

Is Mise,

And here I was thinking that it was due to the fact
that in this country we are better in handling personal
welfare problems and social marginalisation problems.

That we have professionals who work in schools,
youth clubs, religious centres, community organisations
social services and non-government organisations who when
they encounter young people vulnerable to radicalisation
they are in a position to assist and help keep communities
and the kids safe.

In this country we are one of the most culturally and
linguistically diverse nations in the world.
Australians identify with our 100 different faiths or
religious traditions and there are over 300 languages
spoken in Australian households.

The challenge for Australia is to accept difference
while also promoting social cohesion.

A breakdwon in social cohesion can lead to a breakdown
in community resilience. This in turn can lead to a wide
range of social problems including violent extremism.

But we've been lucky thus far - due to the melting pot
that Australia has become.
