By Andrew Jakubowicz, published 15/11/2006The energy directed against multiculturalism has been truly evil, for it has been advancing an agenda of superiority, while disregarding the consequences.

....To implement a policy that protects redneck cultures from being criticised (how one can't be angry that infidels aren't allowed to swim next to pure, burqa-clad, Muslim women - and so must get out of the pool or cop a bashing by a gang of racists) is the height of intolerance, and it's great many now see multiculturalism as the racist policy that it is.
The writer must understand that all non-western European cultures have to offer is their food, although even then, only prepared according to western cultural standards, where meat is refridgerated and kitchens cleaned. The morality of non-western cultures is backward, and only in this sense would I agree that there is a superiority attitude. Then again, migrants agree that western values are superior since they flock here in the millions. All we want is for them to leave their racist ethnic hatreds back in the cesspits they left. If the writer thinks it is racist to want to expose racist cultures, he won't find many agreeing with him. Multiculturalism is why feminists never attack Muslim beliefs, or why Greens Senator Bob Brown can hang out with the redneck Keysar Trad. In some ways, Hilali did us a favour. To know that almost all Muslims agree with his sick views (which we know not only from mosque goers chanting "Allah Ahkbar", the Arab radio station 2ME saying all it's callers support Hilali, as well as there being no protest to have Hilali removed, NO Muslim leaders condemning him, and so on) means we can start dealing with it. It seems the western world let in millions of rednecks, and I fear that we'll see in Europe (it will happen there first)governments voted in that go against their own tolerant nature. MULTICULTURALSM PROTECTS REDNECK CULTURES FROM LEGITIMATE CRITICISM! Posted by Benjamin, Wednesday, 15 November 2006 1:43:52 PM

Old socialists, nipple-fed intellectuals never die. They just morally and intellectually wither away.
Professor Jacubowicz's support of multiculturalism is an infantile belching of the barren ideas that eventually, in our times, would put multiculturalism in its coffin.

Obviously.
nice to hear from a young bloke mate. Good first post, a bit emotional but still you tell it as you see it.. good4u. MINISTRY OF CULTURE is to be appointed (mark my words) and the term 'Multi' is to be dropped completely. This ministry, will be tasked with the process of integration and assimilation without apology. Its guiding sentence will be 'many parts, one body' and while each of those cultural parts may be varying expressions of human culture, they will be all dovetailed into the predominant 'Australian' culture. There will no longer be emphasis on the 'nose' culture or the 'ear' culture, what is a nose or an ear without a body ? Its so 'obvious' :) The ministry of culture will be to strengthen and emphasise the BODY ...not its individual parts. IMMIGRATION and CULTURE. All immigrants will be informed of: a)The nature of Australian society. b) Their abiding responsibility to assimilate and integrate in terms laid down by the Federal Ministry of Culture. EMERGENCY SERVICES and CULTURE. All emergency services will be restructured to provide a reliable service based on the 'Body' culture not the nose or ear parts. Emergency service personel will be trained in 'emergency services' not 'cultural adapation'. There will be no further references to, or training in, any other culture except the 'Body' culture. A nose without a body to attach to is useless. FAILURE TO COMPLY with this direction will (not might) result in. a) Racist knee jerk backlashes b) Violence and competitiveness. If anyone doubts the non viability of 'Multi' culturalism they need read no further than this: http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,20867,20761540-2703,00.html Wow... such a surprise..Hezbollah is not happy to have 'Multi' culturalism they WANT IT ALL. and this, sadly is the nature of competing socio/religious/cultural systems. They have "different agenda's". If their agenda is not working out..simple solution get RID of that which impedes it..or FORCE it to follow....which is exactly what they are doing. ( I can't wait for the flack :) Cheers MC supporters. Posted by BOAZ_David, Wednesday, 15 November 2006 2:41:24 PM

Leigh, I’ll try again for the umpteenth time to get you to provide some hard facts behind your assertions.
You made reference to “dictatorial politicians” • Who are these politicians, which party, when and where? “Most people don’t give a damn about the silly concept” • How do you know what most people think, have you conducted your own surveys? “propping up and encouraging “ethnic” organizations” • Which ethnic organisations are you talking about here? The Greek Clubs, the RSL? “government departments devoted to policing naughty people who say something nasty about someone else’s culture or habits” • Which state and federal government departments are policing? “including new immigrants” • Which new immigrants? Why am I asking you for clarification you might ask? (given I have already written you off as a narrow minded bigot long ago). The simple answer is this. I know full well you can’t answer me with credibility and this proves multiculturalism is working. Ironically, its people like you who provide all the goods reasons why we need multiculturalism big time. Go on - prove me right again or don't answer at all. We all need a good laugh!

What rot. In the case of Muslims we know that in many Muslim countries support for terrorism and extremist Islam are actually frighteningly high. You can google Pew Global Attitudes and see that this respected survey group has found up to half of the populace in countries like Morocco and Egypt have been right behind ol' Osama bin Laden and his atrocities. In the UK, support for terrorism among Muslims has been polled at 20 per cent.
Why are we to believe that in Australia, these attitudes among Muslims suddenly plummet to negligible levels? It's simply crude propaganda. Of course these sort of surveys just aren't done in Australia, lest the results contradict the official line. Even when the grang mufti himself declares September 11, "God's work against oppressors'', we minimise, excuse, or just plain ignore his baldfaced support for mass murder.
