Jon R,

As well as Constantinople, why not North Africa and the ME, they were also once centres of Greco-Roman civilisation.

...Balanced and pro-Israeli don’t necessarily fit together JOM.

...[Former AJN editor Dan] Goldberg suggested the rising costs of security were helping push up education fees so that ever more money would be spent on protecting ever fewer children, as more families were forced to seek cheaper - non-Jewish - alternatives.

#..."We have ramped up our security - walls, fences, CCTV, personnel - and battened down our schools so that some 10,000 kids attend virtual fortresses manned by armed guards."...#

...Yet, he pointed out, the inconvenient truth was that the Jewish community had not faced a terror attack in Australia for 30 years, since the Hakoah Club and Israeli consulate in Sydney were bombed on the same day.

...So my truth in above post is balanced...This organisation(the AIJAC) is purely a lobby group. As taxpayers funds roll across the Jewish community to defend Jewish children against a non-existent Islamist threats, their schools become symbols of what is not right with Multiculturalism!

What amazes me, Diver Dan, is that the Jews in Australia haven't set up their own military and created walled cities where only Jews can live.

Given the actions of Israel, the precedent is there and, when Jews get going, multiculturalism or the rights of other groups doesn't count at all.

Let's keep the Jewish fanatics from gaining political or monetary control in Australia. It's a recipe for disaster!

The Palestinians, dispossessed in their own country, will vouch for this.

...David G: Will walled-off suburbs be the next innovation to prop-up Multiculturalism,(many a true word was spoken in jest, but this example could be the wedge needed).

...I am acquainted with Jewish families in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney who have removed their children from Jewish schools for reasons of risk alone, and nothing at all to do with economy. They believed that schools which resembled “Fort Knox” with impenetrable defenses, was a risk factor in itself: A draw card for disaster!

...What disturbs me with the slick sensationalist lobby group the AIJC, is its ability to draw taxpayer funds into paranoid defense against a non-existent enemy. So what really is the "main-game"?

diver dan,
What strikes me as pretty silly is that people insist on being different in the society that adopts them with the view of becoming citizens & the complain about being targeted. Why not just walk around like all others in clothing that doesn't make them stand out ? Simple.
If you expect to treated equal then behave equal. Stop challenging the hosts.

Ind:

...So using that logic we can easily extrapolate a case for the "White Australia" policy can't we: Or is it the cloths we wear now as the criteria for the new immigrant along with the ethnic background?

...It is a clear case for the failure of Multiculturalism that is before us. Of all the arguments against it, clothes would be the most shaky!
