A few links:

Some of this is media sensationalism. The Stormer link is embarrassingly hyperbolic but I have included it because it does ask the question; how easy is it for someone from Australia to enter into the upper echelons of a radical jihadist organization (which is presumably concerned about being infiltrated) and how much assistance and verification would be required for them to do so.

So you sort of figure they needed to be killed?

so you sort of figure that islamic terrorists should be protected and worshiped?

No. Thanks for asking.

so you sort of figure that people here are thinking the worst 100% of the time but you never are?

I am sorry. I have no idea what you are trying to ask.

Don't worry about it. That feeling you got when reading this - that's what happens when somebody who's smarter than you talks to you at his level without expressing himself in "lower IQ parlance". It happens a lot. It's hard for people like that to adapt to the averages. They're usually miles ahead of their conversation partners, and will say things that are obvious to themselves, but not to the other party of the conversation.

Yeah. That must be it. Good night.

Apologies. Let me say it slower:

So you're always right in your assumptions of other people & they're always wrong?

I do appreciate your civility.

Oh no! I am old enough to know many, most assumptions are simplifications if not completely wrong. With time you may come to the same point.
