Maybe because that's the only religion causing terrorist attacks in Australia? No idea who those people you listed are.

No, it's really not. You just ignore the ones that aren't by that one particular kind of terrorist.

Look up Peter James Knight, Peter Joseph van Tongeren, the Canning Mosque Shooting, to name but a few cases.

And you don't recognise the names I listed? Christensen and Bernardi are part of the current government's party - Cory Bernardi is a Liberal senator for South Australia, and wants to basically impose Christian law on the nation - to be clear, I mean laws like the man is the head of the household, etc. George Christensen is the Liberal MP for the seat of Dawson, and is a racist, homophobic, antisemitic, anti-islamic, misogynistic, anti-environment "christian" who wants corporal punishment for drug traffickers, the return of the death penalty (presumably to be used on gay people, mostly), and the complete divestment from any renewable energies because climate change is clearly nonsense and god is in control of the climate.

And Fred Nile is the leader of the Christian Democratic Party (Fred Nile Group) - and yes, the bracketed part is part of the name. Look into them. Fred Nile himself is an MP in the NSW government.

If you want to make politically-charged claims about Australia, you should probably know about Australia politics.

No idea who these people are - probably because these things happened when I was a kid. And Canning Mosque Shooting. Why have I never heard of it? Sounds dramatic until you read the full story - 3 shots at the roof dome of a mosque at around midnight with the Turkish Islamic Association of WA saying "It is a serious thing, gun shots, but we believe it's not racial or something to do with our religion"

You really had to dig deep. Think of the number of people who've been arrested in Australia for links to Islamic terrorism. The others forms of terrorism pale in front of that. The 3 main acts of terrorism in the past 15 years in Australia have been due to islamist terrorists.
