I've Been Thinking:
Australia is planning on taking more serious steps in their fight against Islamic terror and Islamic homegrown terror.
From now on in Australia, if you join ISIS and travel to fight for them, or if you join them in Australia and you are an immigrant or the child of an immigrant, they will strip your citizenship.
Peter Dutton, the Australian Minister of Immigration, announced the plans earlier this week.
This is a significant step - especially for Australia, which has a reputation for openness and claims to be the most diverse country in the word.
Homegrown Islamic terror and Australians running to join ISIS has become a threat to the homeland and needs to be addressed.
This new law may or may not dissuade young people from joining ISIS - but it will give Australia more power and more teeth to punish and prosecute Islamic terrorists. The threat of deportation might not seem daunting, but word will soon get around.
