Undercover operation foiled grenade attack at Northies after Cronulla riots, new book reveals

A new book by former NSW police minister Carl Scully and former NSW police assistant commissioner Mark Goodwin will detail the undercover operations which took place in the days following the Cronulla riots.
The Cronulla riots took place in December 2005 and saw violence erupt on the streets of the beachside suburb with 26 people treated for injuries.
“We look very deeply in the book at the revenge attacks, of course, and what occurred and that included a hand grenade that was going to be thrown into the Northies Hotel beer garden the following weekend, which was an undercover operation that took that off the street,” Mr Goodwin told Sky News host Erin Molan.
“Public don't know which is revealed in the book.”
Mr Scully added that the public was “terrorised” but didn’t realise how bad the situation could have got.
“We had intelligence - provable, demonstrable intelligence - that Uzi machine guns had been bought,” he said.
“There was an attempt on the black market to buy a stolen military hand grenade. Baseball bats from Newcastle, Wollongong had been sold out and we needed to respond.”

I hope the book mentions the roaming gangs of young men in cars predating on caucasian women and girls.

Many of today's problems were forming then and have never gone fully away.
All these issues were warned about for many years and look at things today. We all sometime forget and move on and we hope everyone will just be peaceful and get along but sadly in the background, year after year the problems are increasing.
You still get many bad people with bad ways and as people and society and government likes us to just forget and say everything is and will be fine but sadly the problem increases every year as our governments and the United Nations keep letting in enless incompatible people.
We all know it and it has been warned about for years and just look at England and the EU and their growing problems, Germany is finally sick of it and the Netherlands and many others.
Poland and hungary are the only ones that are doing the right and are sensible and smart with this whole issue and bad direction.
