Bombs And Stuff

If only we could all be as honest as Australia:-

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on
Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the Government targeted radicals
in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

A day after a group of mainstream Muslim leaders pledged loyalty to
Australia and her Queen at a special meeting with Prime Minister John
Howard, he and his Ministers made it clear that extremists would face a
crackdown. Treasurer Peter Costello, seen as heir apparent to Howard,
hinted that some radical clerics could be asked to leave the country if
they did not accept that Australia was a secular state, and its laws were
made by Parliament.

"If those are not your values, if you want a country which has Sharia
law or a theocratic state, then Australia is not for you", he said on
National Television.

"I'd be saying to clerics who are teaching that there are two laws
governing people in Australia - one Australian law and the other Islamic
law - that is false. If you can't agree with parliamentary law,
independent courts, democracy, and would prefer Sharia law and have
the opportunity to go to another country, which practices it, perhaps,
then, that's a better option", Costello said.

Asked whether he meant radical clerics would be forced to leave, he
Said those with dual citizenship could possibly be asked to move to the
Other country.

Education Minister Brendan Nelson later told reporters that Muslims who
did not want to accept local values should 'clear off'. "Basically people
who don't want to be Australians, and who don't want to live by
Australian values and understand them, well then, they can basically
clear off", he said.

Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by
saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.
Quote:
"IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I
am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some
individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have
experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians."
"However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the
'politically correct' crowd began complaining about the possibility that
our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor
do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming
to Australia. However, there are a few things that those who have
recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to
understand."

"This idea of Australia being a multi-cultural community has served only
to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. And, as Australians,
we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our
own lifestyle."

"This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials
and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom".
"We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to
become part of our society ... Learn the language!"

"Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing,
political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on
Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented.
It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If
God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world
as your new home, because God is part of our culture."

"We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is
that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with
us."

"If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like "A Fair Go", then
you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We
are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really
don't care how you did things where you came from. By all means, keep
your culture, but do not force it on others."

"This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow
you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done
complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our
Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take
advantage of one other great Australian freedom - 'THE RIGHT TO
LEAVE'."

"If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come
here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted."

They only forgot to add, fuck right off, there's a boat in the morning, yessir.

This is re-cycled twaddle. It always kills me when a nation of immigrants comments on immigration. (I have attached an original argument with another immigrant)

This would hold more water if it originated from a non-secular country like the United Kingdom but when it comes from secular countries like Australia and the US, do they not know it is their constitutional right to worship who they want and not be interfered with……In fact the government by law is not allowed to comment on any religion in Australia. I agree that sharia law has no place in a secular country, but to say that an immigrant should move to another country and adopt everything that country values is ridiculous and I question how many Australian migrants adopt foreign values fully?? For example in the said Bali I wonder how many Australians are practicing the Hindu faith? If I were to live in a muslim country I am sure I would find a way of drinking alcohol (I have heard enough stories of the fun that alone brings), I wouldn’t marry more than one person and I wouldn’t be marrying off my children.

(and if you ask me that is the way it should be)

And as for speaking English, I wonder how many of these locals can actually speak Austronesian ?? My guesses are none, now if the Islamic people? Asssuming they speak a foreign language stay on that large island long enough can they claim it as the national language? I am guessing at not – they would need to repeat the ancestors of Peter Costello and co and commit genocide and racially profile and kill all the non Islamic people….wait a minute ;o)

Let me add that I fully support kicking out foreign terrorists back to their own country wherever that may be – it’s common sense and already is a key part of a extradidition policy that most countries have with others (although some struggle, see Russia and Andrei Lugovoi).
