Denis 362 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 2 comments (my bold) from Australia's most prolific blogger, Andrew Bolt, on report of an 'Australian' peace keepers activities... http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/andrewbolt/index.php/heraldsun/comments/dont_let_our_jihadists_come_here_a_second_time/ Our first mistake was to allow them or their families into Australia. Our second would be to let them come back again: AN Australian jihadist has reportedly blown himself up in a truck bombing in eastern Syria, amid reports about 70 per cent of Australians fighting with the rebels are known to counter-terrorism authorities. In what would be the first known suicide attack by an Australian, counter-terrorism officials in Canberra were yesterday investigating reports a man by the name of “Abu Asma” died following a car-bomb attack in the eastern Syrian city of Deir al-Zor… A senior counter-terrorism official said about 80 Australian nationals were believed to be fighting or involved in on-the-ground organisational roles. About 20 per cent of those were believed to be fighting with the al-Nusra Front, the al-Qa’ida-linked wing of the Syrian opposition. A properly maintained immigration program should leave us better off andmore secure. Ours seems to have left us too exposed to extremists. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ozepete 9,586 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The virtual 'open door' to anyone with money getting on a boat to illegally enter Australia, is over. Although I would like to see the new government open up to more genuine refugee places with 'Temporary Visas' like Howard did for the Kosovo refugees. This policy saw 1000's of Kosovo refugees flown to Australia and looked after until the war ended and it was safe for them to return home. Link to post Share on other sites
