Heads above hearts

What a great letter by Eliezer Francois of Endeavour Hills (Refugee Reaction, News, 24 September).
I totally agree with this lady’s comments on the Refugee Invasion of Europe.
It was only “yesterday” that we in Australia were told to be “alert” not “alarmed” and to report anything or anybody or anything that was not quite right.
Particularly in this past year, even the very young (some only 15 years old) have come under the radar of the authorities because of suspicious behaviour. Are they IS, they wonder.
Why is it then that tens of thousands and thousands and more thousands are pouring into Europe.
I am sure these same rules apply over there as to be alert but not alarmed.
These “refugees” have very different religions, different cultures and different values, why are they travelling to Christian Europe, what the hell is going on here, why is all this happening?
Why are Angela Merkel of Germany and Francois Hollande of France encouraging them?
Hungary seems to be the only country that has not got its head in the sand.
Dutch MP Geert Wilders is also saying “for God’s sakes EU, wake up, wake up, wake up!” (I saw him speak in Parliament) but is anyone listening.
This has got to be the biggest Trojan Horse of all times.
Yes Elizer, I agree with you. Here in Australia, let us not be swayed by all the bleeding hearts but let us think hard with our heads and not our hearts or else we will suffer some very serious consequences.
Beatrice Blyth,
Berwick.
