Henry Rollins, threat to Oz?
Kathy McCabe
US rocker and writer Henry Rollins was reported to the National Security hotline during his recent Australian tour because of a book he was reading on flight to Brisbane.
A furious Rollins was informed he was “nominated as a possible threat” for reading Jihad: The Rise Of Militant Islam In Central Asia.
The incident happened on a flight from Auckland on the recent Big Day Out tour.
Rollins told Australian fans during his tour that he received a letter from a “nice woman” who worked “in one of those government areas that deals with anti-terrorism matters.”
He posted the letter on his website.
“Please tell your Government and everyone in your office to go f… themselves. Baghdad’s safer than my hometown and your PM is a sissy,” he wrote. </i>
