    How can the public feel safe if authorities and politicians won’t confront the very real enemy of Islamist extremism terrorism, writes @chriskkennyhttp://www.theaustralian.com.au/opinion/columnists/chris-kenny/call-it-for-what-it-is-an-islamist-terror-attack/news-story/5f82ebf458f46ff3f98d5f6fea883b58 …

        I've completely lost faith in the Govt, they brought in Net 245,400 migrants last financial year (per ABS statistics) without our consent and with next to no media scrutiny. The Gross number is over 600,000. There is no way they can be properly vetting all these people.

        Where are you at with your very real report on men and violence. Terrorism is not the threat - what about all the women killed this year by their husbands. You are just spreading hate. Tell the truth

        Does the head of ASIO really believe the Australian people are that stupid we can’t recognize a terror attack by an Islamist. Denying something doesn’t change what it is.

        Big deal. This is the IRA on steroids. Anyway who cares, if your too dumb to work it out and fail to be fully informed that's your business. With people like you it's that time old adage.....you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink!

        Im fucking loving it mate. One day I hope the people responsible for this shit have to pay the price for their traitorous actions. It should be hard to find them they all work in the same building
