>WALEED Aly has been branded “unhinged” after writing a New York Times article critical of Australia’s policies on immigration and terrorism.
>Right wing commentator and author Gerard Henderson accused Aly of spreading “fallacies” about Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s initiatives to ward off potential attacks on Australia.
>In the article, Aly labels Turnbull as “extremely weak” and slams his plan to create a super ministry to combat terrorism, the actual threat of which had been “over-hyped”.
>“I’ve had a look at Waleed Aly’s piece, and for Dr Aly to say that Malcolm Turnbull has debased immigration in Australia to an American and international audience, is completely false,” Henderson said on Tuesday’s edition of The Bolt Report.
>“The idea that the prime minister, because he renames a department is debasing immigration, is just a total fallacy.
>“(It’s) demeaning of the country. From a man who holds a doctorate of philosophy and teaches students at Monash University and has a number of programs on the ABC and Channel 10, this is sort of unhinged commentary.”
>In his article, Aly said multiculturalism used to be celebrated but was now considered a “threat to be managed’.
>“Every now and then you get the impression that Australia is desperate to be under grave threat,” he wrote.
>Last week, Mr Turnbull announced the creation of a super ministry at a dramatic press conference against a back drop of military equipment and gasmask wearing soldiers.
>“It was a shocking yet predictable moment because it seemed like a sudden escalation for Mr Turnbull who was once a critic of Mr Abbott’s tendency to over-hype the threat of terrorism,” Aly wrote.
>“Predictable because in so much of the world the appearance of being tough on terrorism has become the most common political currency.

>“Mr. Turnbull’s plan is to merge the intelligence agency, the federal police and the immigration department into a single bureau headed by the current immigration minister, Peter Dutton. This takes a sizable chunk of responsibility from the attorney general, although that position (encouragingly) retains an oversight role over the security services in the new agency.”
>Aly said Mr Turnbull was blindly following a British model when the terror threat in both countries remains starkly different.
>He said the “British approach” may not work here “because Australia faces a different kind of terrorist threat. And Australian authorities already have a strong record of arresting terrorists and of disrupting locally planned plots.
>“No Australian terrorist attacks have been mass casualty incidents, not one has been the work of a sophisticated network, and all have used crude weaponry such as knives and guns rather than advanced bombs. There is no Australian equivalent of the 2005 coordinated suicide attacks on the London Tube and buses or the more recent Manchester attack.”
>The piece follows raids on several properties across Sydney over the weekend and the arrests of a number of men over an alleged Islamist-inspired plot to bring down a commercial airliner.
>One of the four men arrested earlier this week was released without charge on Tuesday night.
>Two of those arrested at the weekend, including spray painter Khaled Merhi, are related to Australian-born Islamic State fighter Ahmed Merhi, sources told The Daily Telegraph.
