I note that the article doesn’t actually outline the grounds on which they were denied, just the application was delayed meaning they weren’t granted in time for travel.
For a second here I thought the applicants dobbed themselves in, because at the end of all Australian visa applications it asks you about war crimes.
This is how it read back in 2020: “Has any applicant ever been charged with, or indicted for: genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, torture, slavery, or any other crime that is otherwise of a serious international concern?”
And someone actually ticking yes on that question is just nuts. Surely they did not tick yes.
Fair play Oz
So the terrorist that running over people in Australia can get a visa but those from rich and developed countries are denied? Great choice Oz
I’m sure when terrorist do gain entry to a country they list it as their reason for visiting on their visa applications. “Here to do a terrorism, give visa pls”.
Do you know what they’re talking about? Did I miss something?
There were two incidents of pedestrians being deliberately killed in Melbourne back in 2017 but neither were terrorist (both mental health and drug issues)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/December_2017_Melbourne_car_attack
Probably the Dec 2017 one who was an Afghan refugee. 1 dead and 17 injured.
and the fella who did the December one wasn’t visiting on a visa like numbnuts is suggesting, he had lived here for 13 years at the time and had Aussie citizenship.
See, if Australia didn’t give anyone citizenship, but instead was a hermit kingdom like North Korea, this wouldn’t have happened.
At least, no other countries would know that it had happened.
You’re giving Henry the racist too much credit. He probably knows of zero evidence to back up his feefees, beyond chinese whispers peddled by psychological warfare operatives.
There was a vehicle that ploughed into pedestrians near parliament with the motive determined as terrorism… in the UK? That’s the only thing I can think of.
Is that like the Anglo man who was refused service in a Daylesford restaurant and ploughed down a Muslim family?
(Ok the dude was diabetic and was having a hypo, but it proves the point).
Try not being a war criminal, and then you won’t be stopped by the anti war criminal laws.
Any person that commits war crimes is denied, being from a rich developed country is not a part of the decision.
but those from rich and developed countries are denied?
Rich developed, currently involved in a racist genocide countries, you meant. That is correct. Those people should not be permitted to enter any civilized country and should all be on a terrorism watchlist.
Oh look, Mossad has an account on Lemmy!
Was there are terrorist attack in Australia with a car?
there have been a couple afaik - cars running through groups of pedestrians. i can’t remember many details, but i don’t remember any of them being on a visa
we have a lot more chonky bollards to help mitigate things like that now
One was born here, with mental issues. No visas involved there so that guy above is commenting out his ass
wow! racism! what a fucking surprise
Terrorist as in acts to cause fear and mayhem, sure, but politically…ehhhhh. motivations haven’t been anything other than mental issues.
Cry more, zionist trash. You commit genocide then cry when people want nothing to do with you. Eat shit.
Perhpas they could fuck off entirely.
Good
