But no one has to guess how many lawyers ever bothered to offer their assistance to hold John Howard and others legally accountable.
Irfan Yusuf might be a lawyer and no doubt his comments are correct but what is actually doing about it?
Howard could be the first charged under the so called anti-terrorist legislation for "treachery" (Section 24AA of the Crimes Act (Cth)) having invaded a "friendly" nation Iraq!

If we really do want to fight terrorism then let us do so who instigate terrorism by unconstitutionally invading a "friendly" nation!

We gain nothing by pounding upon Muslims/Arabs as it will not resolve a thing.
We as Australians must work together and pursue that these unconstitutional proposed draconic anti terrorist laws never are implemented.

See also my website www.schorel-hlavka.com for further details.

Don’t fall for the political stirring but use your common sense!

We, the people, decide if our constitutional rights are to be changed, not some group of politicians who are mainly interested to protect their political hide.

sneekeepete, I have often thought that as all the main civilisations appear to have a limited shelf life, the western one could be in decline.
I just hope it lasts me out, if civilisations are to be recycled, I sure do not want to know about them.
A good word about the Western era. Sure there was oppression , slavery and other very nasty effects but with Western civilisation has also come humane recognition of human rights, inventions, medicines etc. We all know about them.
If this society is overcome, is the world going to retrogress back to the swamp of medievilism? Where life revolves not around the wonders man can do , but around a book written by in an age that has passed?
For the progress of humanity, I sincerely hope not.

mickijo,

the proposed legislation being supported by the likes of yourself represents the end of legal doctrines dating back to the magna carta which are designed to protect our liberties. so celebrate the heralding of medievalism which is being conducted with your support.

With the rise of a deadly enemy and the unfolding of a global ideological struggle, our time in history will be remembered for new challenges and unprecedented dangers.
The unprecedented danger is for us to forget that we are heirs to the greatest and best civilization the world has known, and, as in the 1930s, our inheritance is under threat.
Meanwhile, the media waffles on about 'insurgents' in Iraq, 'rebel forces' in Nalchik, Russia, 'Asians' raping and rioting in the UK, 'militants' in Southern Thailand, Kashmir, Philippines, Bangladesh, Trinidad, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, France etc etc. But why are they rebelling? What are they insurging over? Did I miss something about Trinidad and Bangladesh having troops in Iraq or Afghanistan? I'm aware the very concept of "the enemy" is alien to the non-judgmental multicultural mind: There are no enemies, just friends whose grievances we haven't yet accommodated. But the media's sensitivity police apparently want this to be the first war we lose without even knowing who it is we've lost to.
This is a global war between Muslims and non-Muslims. This is not about a "Clash of Civilizations" or "East vs. West," it is about Islam vs.Infidels. The head honcho of Islam declared war on ALL non-Muslims over 1350 years ago. But apparently we're supposed to believe that if we do not resist the jihad, the jihad will go away.
Here's the sequence: Islamic jihadists mount a major attack against non-Muslims. Officials begin investigating, whereupon Muslims begin to protest the "climate of fear" created by the investigation, and say they are struggling to understand why the attackers did what they did, and that they feel unfairly targeted by law enforcement. Rumors of hate attacks and 'Islamophobia' begin to circulate. We non-Muslim/racist bastards are to blame for everything and Muslims are the victims. Never mind about 'Operation White Meat', kufaar and najis (filth), we are the racists.
CONTINUED.....

The number of Infidels won over by past masters who use personal charm (that liquid-brown-eyed sincerity, that soft-voice of sweet reason, the whole Waleed Ali/Keysar Trad shtick that has been trademarked in all countries) is disturbing.The multiculturalist's form of "tolerance" involves tolerating the appalling intolerance of others--even when it impinges on their own rights of free expression. In other words, perfect for self-loathing, masochistic dhimmis and the ever-more dominant minority whom they love to placate. (Some posters here fit that description).
So-called "Human Rights" groups did nothing about the persecution of non-Muslims in Islamic lands, mass murder in Biafra , or the mass murder and mass slavery in the southern Sudan, or the mass murder in Darfur, or the Arab enslavement of blacks in Mali and Mauritania, the mass murder by Arabs of Kurds, or the cultural and linguistic oppression by Arabs of Berbers, the destruction of thousands of churches, and the attacks on Christians, in Indonesia, or the persecution and attacks on Hindus in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Kashmir, but freak out when some Infidel suggests that we do something about 5th columnists in our midst.
Irfan Yusef's latest smokescreen about the Shoot to kill laws is just the tip of the taqiyya/kitman iceberg.
In any war there is 'friendly-fire' - accidental killing of innocent people. It's unfortunate, but in 'the fog of war,' it happens. War is hell! The regrettable incident in London which resulted in the death of an innocent Brazilian is one such case and no doubt more mistakes will occur. But it would be the height of stupidity to stop defending ourselves because we didn't want to make mistakes. Jihadists mean business and we must respond robustly, not passively with a wishy-washy response-lite.
Islam at its core is lethally militaristic and institutionalizes homicide. Anyone who has read through the Qur'an/hadith/sira is aware of this, since it is these tomes that are the source of Islamic ideology-- including its militaristic and homicidal characteristics. Anywhere Islam is permitted to set up shop the problem of militant Islam automatically follows. That should be obvious to anyone who studies the news.

Irfan, you say

'the proposed legislation being supported by the likes of yourself represents the end of legal doctrines dating back to the magna carta which are designed to protect our liberties. so celebrate the heralding of medievalism which is being conducted with your support.'

I may sound like pastor Niemoeller of Nazi Germany......
First they came for the Jews, as I wasn't a Jew I wasn't concerned, then they came for the Jehovah's Witnesses etc.

But I prefer our version of medievalism to your religions any day if they ever happened to become a majority in this country.

Terrorism aside something needs to be done regarding your co religionists day to day behaviour. You know what I'm talking about.

I'd rather not have these laws at all, the only reason we have them is because imported large numbers of muslims from the 70s onwards.

One could argue that nature abhors a vacuum and some other nutjob religion or ethnic group would fill the immense gap left in violent crime, welfare fraud and terrorist potential if the incumbents ever left. It probably would, the Russian Mafia come to mind but I doubt whether they'd be as nasty.
