Jacqui Lambie receives beheading threat, ordering her to help implement Sharia law in Australia.

Yeah I'm not going to say its some false flag letter, but if it was, it is doing its job.

All its done is give Jacqui Lambie (someone who I'd thankfully not heard too much of recently) more publicity, not just as a politician, but for her policies. Its also going to drum up support for her racist stances.

"I have no doubt that it is my stance against Sharia Law and my questions on Halal that are going on at the moment,"

First point, leading well, ofcourse you, as all reasonable Australians would be, are against Sharia Law. She is aligning herself on the side of most Australians. Most Australians don't know anything about Hallal, and the ones who do hate muslims know that's something that they 'do' and example of them 'encroaching in Australia'.

"The bottom line is that we are at war with ISIS and we are just going to have to be extremely cautious."

Again, reasonable statement. Who would side themselves with Isis! Those who would disagree with me are supporting Isis!

"I'm ex-Army so I guess that I'm always very consious about what's going on around me..."

Draw in from your previous profession that holds high public standing to give your argument credibility. Who would disagree with Jacqui, after all she is ex-Army, do you hate our armed forces?!

"I will continue to advocate for a ban on Sharia Law, unnecessary face coverings in public and tighter regulation of Halal certification fees in Australia - and to have those Australian Citizens who assist Islamic State in any way, charged with the high crimes of Sedition or Treason."

Allow me to take this opportunity to toot my own political horn. I'm going to take a hardline stance in the face of these 'threats' because I'm a strong politician. Allow me to disregard any legitimate questions of my stances as to back down would be to give in to terrorism.

Senator Lambie said the threat to her life would not help the proponents of the mosque.

As above.

"If they think that's way of going around to get a mosque in Adelaide by threatening my life then I tell you what, they're certainly going in the wrong direction," she said

Yes, because like Christianity, and every other group every single member agrees with the actions of every other member, entirely.


Maybe I'm just too cynical, given how fear, and fear of terrorism specifically, have been exploited for political gain far too often recently.
