I'd bet there are 25,000+ cab drivers from the mid east in this country, with some kind of ties to al-Qaida. Our own government welcomed them all in, just like most of the other terrorist that have been welcomed in by the Fedgov, while grandma is sniffed, scanned, xray'd, searched and scoped at the local airport.

We've got millions of our own American brothers and sisters out of work, losing their a$$es, and yet the Fedgov continues to flood our country with foreigners, many of which are extremely questionable?

Glad those that established this once great country can't see it now.

Cabbies threat to military security

MILITARY bases and navy ships will be turned into virtual fortresses under plans to beef-up security in the wake of a major terrorist plot.

Taxi drivers and other members of the public will be banned from entering military bases without getting high-level clearance after an urgent review found Australia’s frontline defence facilities were among the least protected in the world.

The top-secret review also found Australia’s top defence brass would be vulnerable to a terrorist strike and recommended their leafy military showpiece, at Duntroon in Canberra, be turned into a secure compound.

Among sweeping reforms, the review calls for bases to be made more secure in the wake of an attempted terror plot by Islamic extremists.

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd announced the review on August 5 after police arrested four men loyal to the Somalia-based terrorist movement al-Shabaab during raids in Melbourne.

Security agencies allege the terror suspects planned to attack Holsworthy Barracks in Sydney’s southwest and had been seen acting suspiciously around military facilities in Victoria.
