        Extremist christianity is a far greater threat. This is what is driving the idea to move our embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

        My guess is that Scomo would gladly grab hold of a sad tragedy such as this in order to drag his sorry Prime Ministerial arse up the poll ladder. I for one would welcome some positive action from him against the slaughter of women in Oz from domestic violence.

        I too would prefer the @australian to focus on stopping violence towards women. This is a real threat to the fabric of our society. The actions of one mentally handicapped man, no matter how sad, are not.

        So what are you going to do about it? The dice was loaded from the start when we let these people into the country.

        Not “we”. Labor. Remember it was the Coalition government who shut the doors to people smugglers. That’s how these animals get in in the 1st place.

        no it was the Coalition who failed to act to prevent the previous tragedy as well. they're as weak on real action as your brain is soft.

        Replying to @australian

        Yeah there's validity in calling out radicalisation. There's also something deeply abhorrent about a national "leader" who claims to pray for and cry for kids that are in his direct power to help. Instead he's fought them in court over healthcare. Get out of the way Stuntmo!

        Good to see it took him less than 24 hours to politicise this. Do domestic violence next. Oh, wait. There are no votes from the base in that.

        Terrorism is war. War is politics by another means. To ignore the fact that it is Islamacists doing this would be infantile.
