Surprise surprise, homes in Punchbowl, Lakemba etc targeted.

Remember this is the seat of Labour minister Tony Burke who has stridently stated that citizenship tests should not be changed, so as not to increase English testing and possibly weed out these type of people.

What a farce of a country we have become, Labour pandering to and wanting more immigration to achieve power, whilst totally ignoring its roots and decent Australian working families.

Unions abandoned their roots long ago too. Then again, the Liberals have abandoned theirs as well.

You forgot Surrey Hills, home of the Murdoch press.

And how, exactly, does increased English testing weed out "these type of people"?

Good job. What is alarming is these people weren't even on the radar. A tip off led to evidence gathering led to arrests. Now we will get all the "Not all Muslims are terrorists" "No need to knee jerk" which are very true sentiments.

However can't people see that it is almost impossible who to trust (sure you can really trust no one) or what people are really thinking and just what level they will go to.

The current approach appears to be working (as in great police work credit where it is due) in averting attacks but given the level of threat it seems they are pushing the proverbial up a steep hill.

It doesn't. Only way to truly stop it is reduced immigration/blanket ban. Sure in letting anyone in you are taking a calculated risk but we need to ask ourselves what level of risk is acceptable.

That way won't stop it, either.
Mass deportations would be required.

Speaking the language of your host country helps assimilation, when people assimilate they tend to want to blow up people less.

What Uni did you go to again ?

did you do CDF 101 ?

I went to the Uni where they taught us the principle that wild unsubstantiated assertions such as yours are not worth the virtual space they use.

Immigration has generally been increased under Lib governments and cut under Labor governments, a pattern that has stretched back decades.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-11-27/berg---immigration/4394382

For the past 70 years, the party that has most embraced permanent migration in government has been the Liberal Party, not Labor.
...
When Gough Whitlam, that darling of the progressive movement, came into power, immigration plummeted. In 1970, the Liberal government of John Gorton had admitted 185,000 migrants. The Whitlam government shrunk that to just over 50,000.
...
Under John Howard - that bête noire of pro-migration progressives - immigration jumped up well above the Gorton heights. In 2007, the number of permanent migrants arriving on our shores hit 191,000 - the largest cohort since the Second World War.

As George Megalogenis wrote in The Howard Factor, the real story was how "the former Hansonite belt … think Howard is keeping out all the foreigners, when he is bringing them here at a rate Paul Keating never contemplated".

Now we're talking. Might take a while, but then MY COUNTRY would be so much safer.....

Lets do it.
 
Should Tony Burke share responsibility or even reflect on his views for these attempted terror attacks ?

The electorate of Lakemba has seen an amazing change in Arabic speakers in 5 years from 2006 to 2011 there has been an extra 23,600 Arabic speakers who speak Arabic as their primary language at home -29% of the electorate.

Wonder if it has changed again since 2011 ?

What is the primary language spoken out of the home ?

Is Lakemba even multicultural now, or is it becoming mono cultural?

where did that tip off come from? .. someone within their community? if so, doesn't that confirm the whole "not all muslims"...
 
I said it did. But the issues remain. What % are what aren't. Given the former what is an acceptable level of risk?

Who knows, but we do know that wanted terrorist Salah Abdeslam was able to wander around the streets of no go zones in Brussels ( Molenbeek), but not one person tipped Police off, he was at at that stage the most wanted terrorist in Europe.

And they'll soon be in power because the right-wing parties are hopelessly fragmented. The beginning of the end.

Actually a blanket ban on the internet is the best solution.

Thats where the radicalisation happens.

You might also want to address why people get radicalised after getting here. What is the cause of it?

I can see why right wingers need their own special safe space on this site - clearly they are being oppressed and can't express far right views in a thread like this. :thumbsu:

This is an Australian Muslim (or ex-Muslim?) giving some insight into the mentality of many Muslim immigrants/refugees. Very insightful.
