Instead of treating them as criminals, they could be treated as enemy combatants or terrorists. Better?

The basic problem is that they must be stopped. This is not negotiable; Australia has a valuable culture that would be devastated by mass immigration.

So, how do you propose to stop them?

Well?

I will be very surprised if you can come up with anything which does not ultimately require resorting to violence.

I disagree Australian culture would be devastated by mass immigration. Post WW2 immigrants and the Vietnamese boat people of the 70's form an important part of today's culture, even neglecting the almost entirely immigrant population (excepting the Aborigine first inhabitants of course).

I am torn trying to find a humane solution that does not cause further traffic, however.

Are you saying Australia would be immune to the same problems certain places in Europe, i.e. Rinkeby, are experiencing?

Hey are you posting under two accounts ("ryanlol" and "ryanl0l") to avoid some kind of rate limiter or something.

Yes, I am. In fact, I couldn't even have posted this reply if I wasn't.
