Dear Is Mise,

Thank You for the "Welcome back."

As for Jesus having the right papers et cetera?

He was being chased by the authorities for preaching
what the authorities did not approve of and as you know
he ended up being crucified for it. So no he would
not have the right papers. In today's political climate
the authorities would be suspicious of him.

You are not only a bigot, Andras Smith, but an ignoramus.
Monash’s parents immigrated to Australia when he was a child, and started a business in Jerilderie, Victoria. Monash was a successful engineer, before he joined the army.
There is no parallel between him and Kahn. His parents were desirable immigrants for Australia, and they were welcome here.
Kahn is an undesirable immigrant and has unfortunately been made welcome here
.In Monash’s time we had a White Australia policy which would have made Kahn unwelcome, so you could not be more wrong, Andras.
Your statement:” By today's standards Monash, like many others who migrated to and made Oz great, would not be eligible as he was neither WASP nor Christian (spoke German at home), and of course would be a load on society and couldn't possibly fit in? is complete nonsense.

Monash’s parents started a successful business, and did very well. They were never a load on the community, and sent Monash to university.

You know some history, my great grandfather on paternal side did business with Monash's family in Jerilderie, while another on the maternal side supported Monash's school in Melbourne.

Unfortunately Australians' habit of telling people distasteful stuff, or shouting it in media, often has many (unwittingly) making illogical and anti-semitic claims directed at various targets, without knowing that Monash was Jewish, but e.g. Ahmed Fahour at Australia Post can be ostracised because he is Moslem?

Every immigrant has a story, but denying some immigrants their story or denigrating their story sounds more like Orwell's Big Brother and National Socialism, having to approve individual immigrants by some old WASPish and racial hygiene standards.

Comment says a lot about how people on this forum discriminate based on stereotypes between a good immigrant and a bad immigrant; Monash would not approve. Why? Because such attitudes stereotype all Australians as narrow minded,or matching outside perceptions of being 'shallow and racist'.

//First off, He'd have his papers in order, would be a genuine migrant and would get a job//

I dunno... do you reckon when Joseph, Mary and the infant Jesus had to flee to Egypt to escape Herod's massacre of infants, they took the time to get their papers in order or just got the hell out of Dodge to avoid their child being killed?

Oh no! Now we have you religionistas arguing about their sky fairies when this is was really about a writer who is a racist, bigot and a thoroughly undeserving immigrant for this country.
Andrass Smith has been caught out lying in a particularly shabby way and instead of slinking off in shame tries to bully his way out. The left never consider their racism, prejudice and lies wrong though, why is this?

LOL.... talk about ignoring the beam in one's eye... Andras ignores the blatant racist garbage coming from Saeed and focuses on one individual. ROTFLMAO.
