The coalition is throwing down the gauntlet to the Labor government over its weak, equivocating response to Muslim anti-Semitism in Australia. Opposition leader Peter Dutton and his team have vocally and unequivocally condemned the vile wave of anti-Semitism since October 7, 2003. Now, they’re daring to say the un-sayable: calling for a complete overhaul of who we let in this country and who gets to stay.
Peter Dutton says there needs to be a public debate about the “inadequacies of the (migration and citizenship) system” and that there needs to be a “proper process … to understand how this individual became an Australian citizen”, referring to one of the two NSW Health nurses who boasted they would kill Israeli patients.
“It’s an outrage and we’ve got big problems in this country when somebody like that can become an Australian citizen,” the Opposition Leader told 2GB.
“There needs to be a proper process in place to understand how this individual became an Australian citizen and where the failing in the system originated and how we can make sure it doesn’t happen again.”
As Dutton points out, having handed out Australian citizenship free with a box of Weeties to the hateful dregs of the world’s shitholes, they’re near-impossible to get rid of again.
Ahmad Rashad Nadir came to Australia from Afghanistan as a 12-year-old.
He was recorded bragging he would kill Israeli patients alongside fellow NSW nurse Sarah Abu Lebdeh in a Chatruletka call with Israeli influencer Max Veifer.
The Opposition Leader on Thursday said there were “big problems in this country when somebody like that can become an Australian citizen”.
More broadly, Mr Dutton said it was “impossible” to deport citizens and there were constitutional restraints on stripping someone of citizenship.
How have we let activists, boat-chasing lawyers, activist judges and feckless politicians get us into this mess?
“At some stage our country has to have a discussion I think about the way in which the whole migration system works,” Mr Dutton said.
“The people who are involved for years and years at the cost of millions of dollars in the court process, the way in which we have to pay for offshore processing, hundreds of millions of dollars a year and when we have somebody like this who gets through the net obviously has breached his obligation about a loyalty to our country when he became an Australian citizen and yet he has the ability to stay in our country.
“It should be of deep concern to every Australian.”
Especially as it seems all to likely that we’ve imported far too many people with such attitudes.
Mr Dutton suggested the video showed there may have been earlier failures in the NSW healthcare system.
“This wouldn’t have been the first rant in that workplace,” he said.
“There would have been other discussions in the meal room or with colleagues and has anybody reported some of these rants that would have been part of a conversation particularly over the course of the last 15 months since October 7, 2023?
“What’s happened within the New South Wales health system that these people haven’t been reported before now because this is not the first time they would have carried on like that.”
Indeed, it’s far from the first time that Sydney’s Muslim community has carried on like that.
The moment the news of the October 7 massacre broke, they were out celebrating: crowds of Muslims in Western Sydney setting off fireworks and cheering. Not to mention invading the Sydney Opera House, chanting, ‘Gas the Jews!’
Why did we let such people into our country? Why are they still here – even if born here?
For millennia, exile and lifelong punishment was a punishment meted out to people who, by dint of their behaviour, simply didn’t deserve the benefits of citizenship or residence.
Is it time to revive exile as a fitting punishment for those who do not, and will not ever, accept our culture and values? Who cares what some ‘declaration’ from the corrupt UN, which no one ever got to vote on, says? We are a sovereign nation – it’s time we made our own laws for the benefit of our own country.
