Likely too extreme

Hateful rhetoric has targeted Israel and the Jewish community, as well as Muslim and Palestinian communities. Sunni violent extremism poses the greatest religiously motivated violent extremist threat in Australia. But we are not seeing Australians travelling to join the terrorists in the Middle East as we did for the ISIL Caliphate. And thankfully have not seen the lone actor attacks that have occurred elsewhere and were inspired by that conflict.

In un'aula di tribunale può far crollare il castello di accuse.

E d'altra parte la legge non consente di più.

Quattrocento poliziotti per acchiappare sette ragazzotti musulmani è il segno che non solo non c'è dialogo o interazione con l'autorità ma che polizia e intelligence non possono contare su informazioni di buona qualità provenienti dall'interno delle comunità.

Burgess ha descritto il contesto australiano. 

Chi gli ha scritto il testo poteva evitare la ripetizione nello spazio di due righe.

Chiedere la testa del capo dell'ASIO non aiuta.

Il mufti farebbe bene a ripensare i rapporti con tutte le componenti della società.

Polizia e intelligence sono solo una parte.

Le leggi si cambiano con il contributo di ciascuno.
