It's all about mini skirts and veils : Comments

By Mirko Bagaric, published 27/10/2006

In truth, opposition to the face veil is all about Western prejudice, just as opposition to the mini skirt is all about Islamic prejudice.

Yes Turnright Turnleft,

Germany and Hitler is a very good example of what happens when people decide to segregate themselves off into exclusive religious tribes who wont marry outside of their religion. And there are examples of it right across history not just Hitler. What happened in Germany was nothing new in History but it shocked the world because it had never been done using such precise modern methods before. Gas ovens.

Dear Fleurette,

Australia has become wary of taking refugees because we can see the trouble that refugees and immigrants are causing in countries around the world. The race riots in France. The race riots by the West Indians in Britain and the London bombings.
Who can blame us for taking a step back and saying it may be advisable to proceed with caution before importing these kind of problems.

Dee points out that there is trouble in Singapore and Malaysia as well ,over the Muslim religion. The Bosnians were also Muslim and so are the Chechnians in Russsia. The Jindaweed killing the tribespeople in Sudan are also Muslim. It seems that much of the conflict in the world is happening where there are big tribes of Muslims and I’,m not saying the killing in some of these conflicts isn’t directed at the Muslims. I’m saying that there is something provoking conflict wherever this Muslim religion is.

You mention India.
India is another example of the conflict caused by religious tribalism. When the British pulled out of India the Hindus and Sieks waged a bloody war for control of India . That wasn’t Britian’s fault . There was nothing to stop the Hindus and the Shieks forming a peacefully elected government when the British left.

If you are Muslim I know that you write because you want the same thing that I do. You want your loved ones and the generations after them to go forward in peace and safety in this country. The question is how do we make sure that the conflicts we see in other countries never happen here. And don’t tell me the answer is tolerance because I have never believed that wars are about intolerance.
I believe if the Jews and Muslims could step out of their religious tribalism and all intermarry and have children the war in the middle east would be over.

London Bombings? But those behind it were born in England.

Importing these kind of problems?” But these problems are related to the countries and their people. How can their hatred be transcribed to this country if it’s purely created in their own?
The people LEAVING their country are in most cases forced to do so. They’re not leaving to cause trouble – they can do that in their own country. They seek sanctuary.

Who are you to accuse them of hidden motives when we are the ones bombing them under false pretences?

“I believe if the Jews and Muslims could step out of their religious tribalism and all intermarry and have children the war in the middle east would be over.”

Hahha. Hilarious sharkfin. Tell us another one.

Israel passed a law forbidding intermarriage between Jews and Arabs. Israel is the major cause of PROBLEMS in the middle east. Feel foolish yet?

You have mentioned race riots as one problem – by that I’m assuming Muslims are to blame. So because a bunch of redneck drunken aussies decided to wreak havoc in Cronulla, I’m supposed to turn to Islam and question it’s presence in this country? I’m supposed to be wary of the Muslims of the world coming to this country to prevent these redneck, neo-nazi, racist, intolerant, PURELY AUSTRALIAN BORN hooligans from a repeat performance?

Please. When you see a riot, you see PEOPLE protesting about their social conditions. There’s lots of violence? Wow and America and South Africa were just soo peaceful and had no violence after all the years of apartheid, slavery and oppression! It must be because they’re black. Why don’t we review all black people from entering our country too? (please note the sarcasm).

Stop being naïve. There’s no way in the world things can just “go back to normal” once you’ve thrown a massive rock on a tiny rock pool. It’s not just going to have a small ripple effect. It’s going to leave a crater in the earth, remove most of the water if not all and leave the place worse than

it was before the rock ever decided to crash the party.

It wasn’t Britain’s fault that Muslims couldn’t get along with Hindus? Well how exactly is it the fault of the Muslims?
You’d have more credibility if you mentioned how Muslims instigated the problem. But just because now you are more aware of any crisis involving Muslims doesn’t mean they are suddenly the problem.

“I’m saying there is something provoking conflict wherever this Muslim religion is.”

And I’m saying it’s not always because of Islam and its adherents. So I guess that leaves you with no argument.

“The question is how we make sure that the conflicts we see in other countries never happen here.”

We hope and pray that America doesn’t invade us. So I guess we’re A-Okay then.
You can’t PREVENT conflict – trying to do so has only ever created more catastrophe (just ask history). You can only hope that it doesn’t spiral out of control. You also don’t add fuel to a fire that’s been burning for years i.e. support a war you know nothing about, HOWARD.

War may not be about intolerance – but intolerance fuels the fire behind war and makes people support it. A war without support from the populace cannot continue – history will also tell you that.

The reasons to go to war are more complex and they are economical reasons, geo-strategic, geo political etc.
The only role religion plays in war is to use it against those you are fighting because by exacerbating difference you create division.

I’m not suggesting tolerance – I’m just saying people lose the racist and bigoted ideologies and start seeing what’s really happening if you care at all about the status of the world (not just Australia). It may not solve the problems of the world but it’ll sure help me sleep better at night knowing that I don’t live in a country which promotes the views of Adolf Hitler. (titfortat – this means you).

I’m not Muslim. I’m a one-of-a-kind Christian Lebanese who actually cares about the plight of the Muslims.
Go figure.

flu,

"I’m not Muslim. I’m a one-of-a-kind Christian Lebanese who actually cares about the plight of the Muslims"

will you ever hear this statement in your life-time?

"I’m not a non-Muslim. I’m a one-of-a-kind muslim Lebanese who actually cares about the plight of the non-Muslims"

or

" I'm a muslim. I care about the plight of non-muslims in islamic countries. "

Ever??
