Michael, you wrote: "Here in Sydney Australia the Australian Broadcasting Corporation news report on the apprehension of the would-be attackers made no mention of the Islamic character of the participants, referring to them only as "foreign born men"."

Well, well, you guys are also infected by political correctness disease!!! So what's new, the whole West is suffering with this !!!

Here also most of our media has PCphobia. When Muslim youths were rioting in France, our media initially referred to them as disaffected youths. Never mentioned they were Muslims. Finally, they had to break down and tell who these rioting people were.
