The Jewish minority in Australia has no intention of introducing and imposing their set of religious laws on all Australians.

The Jewish minority in Australia has not introduced new bills insisting on special treatment for their women and men in hospitals, consultation rooms, and by the police.

The Jewish minority in Australia is not secretly and/or openly plotting against our national security and liberal democracy.

The Jewish minority in Australia does not rally people to coerce them to their way of life.

The Jewish minority in Australia does not teach their toddlers to hate all non-muslims and to call them kafirs.

The Jewish minority in Australia does not make requests for special praying rooms in our Public Hospitals, schools, universities, workplaces, ...etc. and the removals of all crosses or other religious emblems in such places.

The Jewish minority in Australia is not bringing thousands of migrants across the oceans and marrying Australians for the sole purpose of "populating the country to critical mass".

Irfan, just remember that no one consulted Islam when we wrote our Australian constitution.

However the Jewish minority in Australia played is an inseparable part of the Australian Christian social and moral value system on which our nation is built, having preserved the word of God over the centuries (long before Islam came to town).

To you Irfan hearing the truth is more offensive than accepting the lies. You prefer to find cradle in the soft esoteric part of your religion than in its intrusive political realities.

Irfan,if I was wrong in my post that suggested you had expressed a wish to have some attributes of Sharia become incorporated into Australian law, I apologise most sincerely.
You call people who question the ways of Islam, "armchair nazis", that is implying that such people should cease from stating their view, right or wrong in this country we are all free to speak our minds.
I hope it will always be so.And may our laws always protect that right.

Irfan,
No old son, I have never phoned a talkback radio show ever. You once asked me if I had a connection with a radio station and my answer was negative also. Perhaps it was someone who expressed his views in a similar manner. I do try to think before I type. I hope you don't class me as an armchair nazi, although I have put strong opposing views to yours on a few occasions.

Muslims do have a poor reputation and I think that, mainly, is because of the actions of Leb Muslims. They do not appear to even try to integrate, you know or bend a little to get along

I do not doubt the sincerity of yourself and Waheed Aly and a couple of those girls that write articles here, but you have the task ahead of you to improve most peoples opinions of Muslims. Events overseas do not help your cause either. Regards.

Sorry Graham Young,

Writers deserve respect based on what they write, not where they write. Or is is "respectable" to write for a Coalition site in Australia?

It is noted that you have already removed comments from this thread, understandably so. In fact most of the posts are what you would expect when anyone writes that the referred to comments are made publicly, clearly, recorded and repetetively are "misunderstood". They are not misunderstood at all. By either religion.

Like other posts here I have no doubt you will remove this one. Censorship is a necessary evil in the world of free speech isn't it Graham?

Since the topic of this thread has branched onto "respect", I have no respect for the moderators of a forum which permits an article using Sheik Hilali as the basis to cry double standards.

Hilali has ridiculed and offended most Australians. This forum has perpetuated this ridicule and offence by permitting Irfan's article which not only dismisses the public outrage but reframes it in a "reasoned" argument to the inevitable conclusion of all Muslim apologists - that they are the victims.

What reaction do the moderators expect when you ridicule and offend most of Australia?

Deeply offended by Hilali, Irfan and Online Opinion.

Now Irfan Usef has referred to myself and many others both past and present on this forum as" armchair nazis" which I take exception to ,yet when the discussion gets hot,Irfan appeals to the umpire crying foul.

If you cannot handle the heat of debate Irfan,perhaps you should not hurl abuse yourself.
