I suppose this is the mirror image of ISIS's plan for world domination. It's also what some anti-Muslim folk have been saying for a while, but now the ex Army head makes the claim.

AUSTRALIA needs to prepare for an increasingly savage, 100-year war against radical Islam that will be fought on home soil as well as foreign lands, the former head of the army, Peter Leahy, has warned. Professor Leahy, a leading defence and strategic analyst, told The Weekend Australian the country was ill-prepared for the high cost of fighting a war that would be paid in “blood and treasure” and would require pre-emptive as well as reactive action.

“Australia is involved in the early stages of a war which is likely to last for the rest of the century,” he said. “We must be ready to protect ourselves and, where necessary, act pre-emptively to neutralise the evident threat. Get ready for a long war.”

More like 2,000 years

The only way to win is by education, middle class and opportunity.

That means rewarding our enemy is the only way. That is how we beat Christians, unions and every other radical element.

Anti-Muslim folk are generally nutters who want a holy war just as much as Muslim extremists. None of them will have the balls or mental capacity to join the ADF though. Bunch of wannabes.

It's hard to achieve this when we're importing Muslim extremists from Muslim cesspits where education that doesn't revolve around Islam is hard to come by.

Military wannabe's like Lieutenant General Leahy?
 
Thank **** people like you don't make have a say in how we tackle Muslim terrorism.
You don't think it suits the government to keep the population fearful?

How delightfully naive of you.

Yeah it's all the government making people fear Islamic terrorists. It's got nothing to do with the huge amount of Muslim terrorist groups worldwide including Australians who want Westerners and non Muslims dead. If the far Left were in charge, returning ISIS militants would get a red carpet entry to Sydney Airport and a brief case full of all the uncollected welfare payments they missed while on 'duty'.

How about we keep the fear balanced and proportional to the risk?

Not sprouting bullshit like the bolded would be a good place to start.
 
If you are a member of any of the 2 groups below can you go dig yourselves a giant hole in the middle of a desert somewhere and fight it out yourself.

Let the adults talk.

i. You believe that Allah/Jesus/Buddha/Hindu...god?/Jack Ziebell hates you if you dont believe in him or her and wants you to kill others
ii. those who believe that to counter these idiots we should go on our own holy war in the name of smiting this first group in the name of corporate capitalism ...ahhh... I meant liberal democracy

As long as they keep their s**t in the Middle East, I don't see why we should get involved. It's their business, not ours.

That said, any immigrant (citizen or not) to this country who goes over to fight in their wars should automatically be denied entry here and their citizenship revoked (whether Muslim or Jew). Just as any immigrant (citizen or not) who commits, plans or harbours terrorism here should be deported and their citizenship revoked. And anyone with a history of religious extremism or the above should be denied entry permanently/deported whether technically a "refugee" or not.
 
that's some A grade fear-mongering there.
Not really. The power that Islam has on its followers shouldn't be underestimated. It's frightening how easily 'moderate Muslims' can be brainwashed by terrorists and turn into completely different people, hating anyone who isn't a fundamentalist Muslim like them. We're talking people who are willing to kill and die in the name of Allah. This is an issue that can't be swept under the rug like we would see under a Greens regime.

Witches, communism, Islam.

Just another fear to mobilise armies for.
