U.S. National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard has said Australia’s migration policy directly contributes to the Bondi terrorist attack, warning Western democracies about the growing threat of Islamist extremism.

Fifteen innocent people were killed in the mass shooting and dozens more injured on Dec. 14, when two gunmen opened fire on a Jewish Hanukkah celebration at Sydney’s famous Bondi Beach.
