  • ""Pig's heads are dumped under cover of darkness by persons unknown, but the intent is clear: no Islamic school for this Neighbourhood. At rowdy public rallies against the school, traffic and planning concerns are drowned out by anti-Muslim tirades amid choruses of " Aussie Aussie Aussie, oi oi oi". ... Our specialist warns of pockets of growing Muslim radicalisation in Australia's biggest cities, the result of young people feeling under seige from police and wider public. ... But as Four Corners reporter and author on terrorism Sally Neighbour illustrates, defeating terrorism presents not just a policing issue but also a challenge to core community values of pluralism and tolerance." --- From website."

  • ""Australian Muslims are being harassed and rejected by many elements within the broader Australian community. Now some community leaders are warning of a nasty backlash due to the hostility that young Muslims feel is aimed against them. A recently completed three-year study found that Australia's tough stance on counter-terrorism and security could actually be increasing the threat of breeding home grown terrorists. Erring on the side of aggression - just to be on the "safe" side - can radicalise and alienate the people who are targeted, analysts tell Four Corners. The danger is that some may then graduate to violence, disengaging from society before taking the next step to terrorism. One specialist warns of pockets of growing Muslim radicalisation in Australia's big cities, the result of young people feeling under siege from police and wider public. His fear is this could morph into an agenda for violent change."--edited from ABC website."@en
