Immigration gave us a country where the armed forces no longer dare wear uniforms in our street

 

This is no longer the Australia we knew.

 

This is no longer something to be dismissed as just a problem with a tiny, unrepresentative minority:

 

A MEMBER of the Australian defence forces has been assaulted and threatened by two men of Middle Eas...

 

The attack follows the knife attack on two police officers in Victoria that ended with an 18-year-old Islamic extremist being shot dead in Victoria.

 

NSW Police confirmed today that they were investigating the alleged attack on a member of the Australian Defence Force in full navy uniform at 6 o’clock this morning.

 

It is understood punches were thrown and threats of beheading were made.

 

A police spokesman confirmed the 41-year-old man allegedly suffered minor bruising in the attack and reported it later by telephone to Kings Cross police.

 

“The two men were described as being of middle eastern appearance,” the spokesman said.

 

Defence force families have already been put on high alert after an incident in Western Sydney in which two men of Middle Eastern appearance approached the house of a serving soldier and asked if defence force personnel lived there. 

 

They left after the wife of the soldier told them “no”.

 

NSW Police have also been told to be “vigilant” following the Melbourne attack by radicalised teenager Numan Haider.

People say stupid things at times of stress.  It's not an excuse but hopefully they'll change their minds when the whole story comes out.

 

If they weren't closely associated they're just trouble making loud mouths.


I completely agree.  they would have been

distressed, no doubt about that but such attitudes

are not helping at all.  they create more resentment.

 

they were outside the home of the family of the

deceased.   they were part of a large group of

family and friends.  they were there to offer support

to the grieving parents.

 

 


Thanks for that.  Trauma and grief can cause people to say stupid things they would not ordinarily say.  On reflection and as the truth comes out they will see things differently.  

 

It's like calling the car driver in a fatal accident a murderer in the heat of the moment.


yes, i get that.

its the community/religious leaders'

attitudes and messages that concern

me more. imo the main objective should be

to defuse the  tension.

If he's the man I just saw talking he certainly is.

Grieving, angry, young woman speaking in the heat of the moment. 

 

Nobody should be deported for that.  That would be a complete over reaction.

Just heard on news;  the Uniformed Australian Defence Force member has withdrawn his accusation and police are investigating.  I wondered why it took him so long to report it, and why he would drive all the way from Bella Vista to Kings Cross to do it.
