Glad to see that you changed your opinion regarding the PM's and Treasurer's comments made last week. I thought they were reasonable and I hope it is not just talk and legislation to tighen immigration and citizenship laws is enabled. Also to ensure prospective migrants get improved information regarding our society, before they come here.
I am not interested in debating religion verses religion and did not learn much from the posters.
I think you know what the problem here is. i.e. Lack of integration by many, but not all, Muslim males. If it is only a few, as you say, then they have done a bloody good job of giving Muslims a poor reputation.
Question? What to do about it?
It has been suggested to me that further generations will correct the problems, but I have doubts. I think the issues are cultural and the male attitudes are handed down through generations.
Our politicions do not have the solutions and neither do the thick Shieks. If you have any suggestions as to how integration can be improved please let us know.
