NC,

And where would Rosa Parks sit on a Saudi bus ? Anywhere ? or up the back, behind a barrier ?

Hypocrisy and bigotry is alive and well !

Loudmouth/Joe, I can see no way in which McAdam or NC can be connected with the atrocious behaviour of the psychopaths who lead IS and the damaged people they manage to attract.

What McAdam/NC have consistently shown is that despite great provocation they are able to rise above. That is admirable and deserves to be acknowledged.

On the other hand, despite every opportunity to extend a hand of friendship, the 'others' I referred to above have shown that their own natural level is the gutter and any extended hand is only for the purpose of dragging others to that level.

Do you feel comfortable in the gutter?

Yes? No?

NC, I previously posted a link to Roger Waters' great song "The Bravery of Being out of Range". It could be the anthem of many here, who hide behind pseudonyms to spout their hatred and fearmongering.

I spit on them.

Craig, what is bigoted about "Join me in condemning any religious ideology that threatens secular democracy." Answer given by your poster boy of grace and calm persistance: "I do not agree with you..."

Go jump, Craig, and take your PC labels with you.

Here's a turn up....

Broadcaster Alan Jones ordered to pay $10,000 for racial vilification.

"It is simply not reasonable to malign and denigrate Lebanese males in general in the context of discussing a particular incident involving a small ground of young Lebanese men," said the judgment, handed down earlier this month.

The tribunal found that Jones used "contemptuous and hateful language" and the broadcast was "gratuitously insulting and offensive to Lebanese males"."

Craig,

Thanks.

Your comment is in line with the observation that I shared in my first post (18th):

“Knowing that the Australians are rational people who prefer facts over slander, I draw your attention to ……”

McAdam has been very calm and graceful, I must learn from him. I could have shown more patience at times.

NC/McAdam/Minns,

Simple question:

Does the Islamic State act entirely according to the instructions and teachings of the Koran ?

Yes ? No ?
