Almanac

Thanks for your post - nice to see a bit of (un)common sense in place of cowardly mossie bashing.

And they are cowards - reconciliation just sounds like hard work to people who love to cast blame and avoid responsibility.

I have literally 'broken bread' on many occasions with Muslim people as a result of working with them. I also used to live in Coburg/Brunswick area of Melbourne for many years. Strange how I never encountered the hostility the 'mossie bashers' claim they have experienced. After all, I am obviously white, in fact most people think I have German or Scandinavian origin so you'd think I'd be a target for 'middle eastern in appearance thugs'.

While I despair of the hatred that manifests in many of the posts, I continue to post from time to time in an effort to bring some form of balance to the discussion.

I agree there is a problem in Cronulla and that there has been appalling behaviour by Lebanese youth. However, to paint all Muslims as 'bad' is indeed arrant nonsense. As I stated this type of talk is the same as that used by nazis and others to dehumanise a group of people in order to subjugate and, worse, eliminate them.

BTW, Boaz lives in a mostly white eastern suburb of Melbourne - very much doubt he has first hand experience of Cronulla youth.

Perhaps "RECONCILIATION" has too many syllables for the 'mossie bashers'.

Cheers everyone

I see now that the "peace and love" brigade are out we are supposed to reconcile with the irreconcilable. Amusing tha these type have met a Muslim or two and found them to be just wonderful (and there's no reason why Muslims shouldn't be "nice" people) or they're walked down Lakemba's main street, emerged alive and said "what's all the fuss about"? Then those who have fought back against the "Lebbos" are accused of cowardice... strange, when it's Leb gangs which make sure the odds are 5-6 to one, and that's when they attack old ladies.

A close relative of mine had to change high schools because of disruptive, out-of-control Leb males. Otherwise they'd not have gotten through year 12. The high school in question still has hordes of males who feel they don't need an education and who are disrespectful towards teaching staff, especially females. There are many other schools like it.

Anyone who thinks it's a matter of few hugs and kisses thrown the way of the thugs is living in lah-lah land. Go and spend a few weeks living near Lakemba while you're on your missions to save the poor Lebs from vicious racist Australians. Don't shoot your mouth off at those who on the front line, from far off Melbourne or Adelaide. It's you who are the cowards, to scared to face reality.

BD, a racial purity approach is "is a bit misguided" where as asking if someone is a christain is "despicable". That tells quite a stroy in itself. As I mentioned elsewhere you are so out of balance on this issue it defies description. Can't tolerate the muslims who just want to get on with their lives because some muslims do bad things. Assume that any christian who does bad things is not really a christain, but won't allow muslims the same excuse.

You regard someone singing the same kind of tune as the folks that built the gas chambers as "Dear" and "a bit misguided", someone who's love for democracy is such that he wants to see "lefties" dead and wants to deport skippy's to Beruit if they disagree with him and yet you get stuck into Irfan, Fellow_Human etc at every possible opportunity. I feel a bit ill.

Almanac, Scout, reason and others trying to maintain some balance in this debate, thanks for the pools of sanity in cesspit.

Almanac used terms such as

“sure of their superiority”

“hate and loathing”

so, it appears that I and some others regard ourselves as “Superior beings who loathe and hate all lesser beings” good one Almanac :)

on the ‘loathing’ thing, should I paste the dictionary full of expletives and loathing that you emailed to me after our previous ‘issue’ ? They would see where ‘loathing’ gained its definition from that mouthful, but blessings on you anyway.

On ‘Reconciliation’... and ‘reaching out’ to those we disagree with, it would have been very easy to just ‘point out’ and correct my previous misreading of your web site, and I would have happily acknowledged that.

Scout is correct, I live in the predominantly Eastern ‘white’ suburbs (except of course for Springvale mostly asian, and Box Hill mostly asian) but you seem to neglect that I’m married to an Asian and my daughter used to get ‘You were born in a peanut butter jar’ hurled at her in primary school. She had such social dysfunction from ‘white’ bitches and their racist attacks at high school that she never finished secondary. Added to this, most of our friends are from cross cultural marriages and or are Asian or Colored south africans.. yep..sounds like I’m a loyal ‘white supremacist’ :)

Muslims from my wifes work have sought out her friendship... specially coming to visit us, yep..sounds like we can’t stand em :)

BUT WAIT... that does not accord with Almanacs script.. I’m supposed to ‘hate and loathe’ these inferior people.....*. looks sideways with eyes rolling *

ROBERT... I would rather reach out to Friedrich, I don’t know much about his ideas yet.
we can tackle specific issues one at a time. Isn’t it better to start in a position of friendliness ?
He has made ONE comment out of 23 “I’m for white pride” which concerns me, he is yet to elaborate on his meaning.

Please show me ONE place where I have “condemned ” Fellow Human or Irfan personally.. just one :)

(attacks on Islam are not admissable, as this is robust debate about issues)
