Sydney International Airport
Airport security has become paramount due to the amount of terrorist activity in recent years. It would be fair to say that Australia is a major target considering our alliance with the U.S and we should be doing everything in our power to secure our nations ports and airports. The Bali bombings and the devastation in the London underground are timely reminders of the past that could become the very near future.
Well it seems as though our authorities are still very much behind the eight ball when it comes to securing our nations airports. Sydney International Airport would have to be our busiest and most popular airport. On Sunday evening a person was able to breach security. Not too bad you reckon? Well after breaching security this person could not be found and the airport still has no answers into the person’s whereabouts. So a person was able to pass the yellow line and disappear into thin air! You have got to be joking, right?
In my view this is exactly what we have to avoid. I mean the ongoing debate will rage on as to why we continue to support the U.S in its comical efforts to reduce terrorism. The bottom line, our government will always have a duty of care to all its citizens and residents. We can fly as many flags as we like on Australia day but shouldn’t we also foresee the destruction that could be?

My argument is definitely about inadequate airport security, the other issues have been bough up in a sarcastic context simply to support my view. In addition, I'd also like to let you know that I am 'for' waiving the Australian flag on Australia day.
