          This is in Australia, if that. And it is in Australia declared
          - Rudd said that Muslims who intend to live according to Sharia law, of course, can do this, only outside Australia.
          Kevin Rudd unpleasantly surprised Muslims, noting that he supported the constant surveillance of special services for what was happening in Australian mosques. It is reported by mirvam.org, with reference to media materials.
          “Immigrants who do not have Australian citizenship must adapt to Australian society, and not vice versa. Or they do not belong here. I’m already tired of worrying that God forbid inadvertently not offending these people and their culture, ”said John Howard.
          “After the terrorist attack in Bali, the nationalist sentiment in Australia intensified. Our society is 200 years of conflict, perseverance and victories of millions of men and women in the struggle for freedom. Our official language is English. Not Spanish, not Arabic, not Chinese, not Japanese and no other. If you want to live in our society, learn English, ”said the Australian Prime Minister.
          “Most Australians believe in a Christian God. This is not religious discrimination, not the influence of the right, not political pressure. It is a fact. Men and women created this nation on the basis of the Christian faith. This is the lifestyle of our country; it is being instilled in children in schools. If our god offends someone, let them go to another place. Here is our land, our country. If you share our values ​​- welcome. If you have come to resent, if you do not like our flag, if you do not like our Christian faith, you can always use the basic democratic right - the right to leave here anywhere. Do you not like it here? Bye. We did not call you here, ”said the Prime Minister of Australia.

            GonChar, Australian Prime Minister voiced very correct and wise thoughts. With their charter do not climb into someone else’s monastery. Europe should learn from Kevin Rudd. And then they play some mystical democracy and tolerance to the detriment of their peoples and states. I do not like it - no one is holding you, they have collected their trunk and to hell .. on all four sides.

    police avoid the term "terrorist attack"
    Of course, they don’t want to think about the attack, because this will lead to a lot of questions for the special services and the police. But as I understand it, the authorities have not yet ruled out this. If this was really a terrorist attack, then this is a good example of the fact that you can’t hide from terrorists across the ocean and do not pay off with your inaction in the fight against them.

    Terrorism is evolving. This method of terror: cheap, reliable, secure and very dangerous, because there is a desire for sick people to imitate all kinds of freaks.

        I did not say that it was a terrorist attack. I talked about method and method, as well as imitators. If this was not a terrorist attack, then we must fight with the "imitators." If this is a terrorist attack, then how to deal with this method of conducting terrorist attacks?

          how to deal with this method of carrying out terrorist attacks?
          Each mistake (terrorist attack) has a name, surname, middle name and address. It is necessary to identify those who instructed, these performers and give them an acquaintance with the gurus. Preachers and financiers of terrorism - to the next world.

    Yes, in fact, in almost every city in our wide homeland there were similar stories, like some kind of dumbfounded nutty man drove into the crowd at a bus stop. No terrorism, just drugs, alcohol and a sense of impunity

    Stupid koment.
    The usual accidents which are many in Russia and isolated cases in Australia.
    Australia has a very high standard of driving safety. The number of accidents per capita, I think, is 1:10, and the number of deaths is 1:20 in favor of Australia. The police are invisible here, but they are fighting with violators very effectively. Bribes and requisitions are impossible by definition.
    So there is nothing to spit bile here, wishing that few were killed. You need to look in the mirror more often.
    My condolences to the dead and injured.
