Racist extremists a threat to security, ASIO says - National News - National - General - The Canberra Times

A small enclave of racist and nationalistic extremists are being treated by intelligence agencies as a possible threat to national security, ASIO has revealed.
The spy agency's annual report claims that Australian citizens attracted to Jihadist terrorism continue to pose the most immediate and real security threat to Australia.

But ASIO has also identified a ''persistent but small sub-culture'' of racist extremists, who have been active in protesting against Muslims in Australia.

''Local racist and nationalist extremists maintain links and draw inspiration from like-minded overseas extremists,'' the report said.

ASIO said the groups focus on propaganda and engendering support within Australia, but it also warns that racist groups could engage in violence to provoke a wider response.

Extreme nationalistic groups, ASIO said, were frequently confronted by newly developed anti-fascist groups, often resulting in violence.

''Where such confrontations have occurred, the 'anti-fascists' have outnumbered the nationalist and racist extremists and police intervention has been required.''

The fascist attitude of the warriors of the so-called WOT towards Muslims and especially Islamists is a fact of life in the west and places like india. It didn't start with OBL and his Al Qaeda and it's not going to end with the demise of OBL and his Al Qaeda. Matter of fact, in order to hide this fact, the west will never fail to come up with new methods to demonise and marginalise those who speak and act against this nazi attitude of the west.

Some of us have been saying it all along but the usual suspects dismiss it as 'victim mentality', with some even claiming that Islamophobia is 'understandable'.

It's good that a western official agency has validated our concerns.
