Each time a discussion like this arises, we should be asking some more probing questions.

1. Is the incorporation of Islam into Australia, a step which is beneficial to a society such as ours?
2. If so, in what way?
3. Should we be encouraging Islam to take a more prominent role in Australia?
4. If so why? If not, why not?
5. Where in the world is Islam peaceful, beneficial, endearing, respectful of others?
6. If nowhere, then why not?

We certainly should ask some more probing questions about this relentless agenda!
And I would suggest, urgently.

Fortunately we live in a democracy and we cherish freedom of speech , allowing the Hilalis to rant and insult our intelligence.

We also have laws that govern and protect our democracy and freedom.

I strongly suggest the use of these laws against any group or individual found guilty of acting outside and against our democracy.

Clearly Islam has no place "inside" our democracy. They are citizens of the Islamic community of believers "Ummah". Australia is but the new found land for Islam. Too bad other people live here – lesser people (infidels) deserving Islam.

The last en-passant remark of Hilali: " we love Austraaalia more than anyone else..."

Translation: We have more rights to this land than anyone else.

A Muslim cannot divorce him/herself from the words of Allah who says that ALL land is His and is given exclusively to the Muslims to fight for and protect.

So when is our government going to get tough on this national threat and launch an inquiry on the legitimacy of Islam to exist in this country?

I like the idea of re-evaluating citizenship – like a driver’s licence, you break the law you lose points and eventually your licence.

The problem with that is a Muslim will lie and swear every time they are caught – and if that doesn’t work cry victim and discrimination.

The latest incident is the Global Islamic Youth Centre in Liverpool (Sydney) found guilty of promoting hatred materials and instructing Islamic youth for Jihad…

The head of the GIYC Sheikh Feiz Mohammed, said he had been put on “trial by media” for comments taken out of context and no longer relevant…

How can a series on “DEATH” videos instructing young people to kill themselves and asking their parents to nurture the love of death for the cause of Allah - be taken out of context or deemed irrelevant?

Unfortunately Politicians need votes. They will prostitute themselves and mortgage their own children to get elected. Even if this means shutting an eye on Islamic activities under their jurisdiction.

Muslims are completely incompatible with our and the western way of life. The Turks are an exception and blend in reasonably well. Most of the others especially the Lebanese and Pakistani create little Lebanon’s or Pakistanis where they isolate themselves by keeping their women under black sheets and create an in your face poorly educated underclass with a high birth-rate and well developed Centre link rorting skills.
Many of the Southern and Western Sydney electorates are corrupted by branch stacking with all sorts of less than desirable members being elected. Hilaly could be rewarded with some real power to push his agenda if he takes this further

now for those who dont want to prostitute themselves you should talk to me

I couldnt care less about votes because i care more about the people.

C J Morgan, why should we pander to those who despise us and our values? The answer to both your questions is YES!
Democracy should be a two way street, with Muslims it is one way so there should be no appeasement , no pandering to their religious demands or wants.
They would be far better off to live in their own lands with their own laws than constantly trying to buck ours.
We do not need them.

Indeed, mickijo. I don't think we need people who put their personal bigotry above democracy and the rule of law, but I have to put up with you (and religious nutters of all persuasions) because I live in a democratic society that values personal freedom.

I don't mind all that much, because in my opinion the alternatives are far worse. Give me a liberal democracy anyday over any other system.

To return to the topic, I fail to see how "Muslim" candidates or parties are any worse than "Christian" candidates, parties and politicians. In my view, politics should be robustly secular, but it's arguable that the Christian view should be represented in parliament because a significant proportion of the electorate follows that faith. Exactly the same logic applies to Muslims.

It's called democracy, folks. Abandon it and the terrorists have won.
