PALE,
Am sure you now understand the futility of trying to have a rational discussion with CJ Morgan and Ginx and why I just ignore them. Unlike you, I will not specificly give them any of my knowledge on any subject.

In this case, you said muslims need to be better informed. I replied that all migrants need better information and gave some examples of things some migrants might find different here on arrival, which included non availability of dog and dolphin meat and illegality of FGM. CJ Morgan wanted evidence, which I could, but would not supply him. In true form he then claimed it was just xenophobic rant and you gave dramatic example of killing of dogs for meat. He continues to show his ignorance by claiming that opposition to FGM is xenophobic and an attack on muslims. I won't bother to inform him otherwise. These two remain idiots trying to be smart arses and are best ignored.

I still think your press release about AWB was spin and emotive, but I understand that in your situation it is necessary to get press coverage to show the public important information.
Governments, major political parties and big business have no trouble getting their press releases published simply because of the ammount of advertising they do in the media.

I think I am correct in saying that your contact with local muslim leaders and overseas based muslim business mem has been to encourage alternatives to the live export trade. To me that is a far more realistic and practical approach than simply jumping up and down demanding that love exports be stopped. I commed you for that.

What'd I tellyer?

We didn't even get as far as next week!!

"OLO is embarresing in its poor quality. Its full of nasty people with personality and clearly alcol problem" (PALE&IF)

.....use the SPELL CHECK!! (I know what you mean by poor quality..).

.....mind you, if it is such 'poor quality' do you think that that might have some connection to you??

AND if not;......why do you give so much time to a poor quality forum that is full of nasty embarresing alcol's?

Personally, I don't think love exports should ever be stopped. In fact, I've got a load of love right here that I'm hoping to dump on anyone who'd like their own little pile.

*dumps love on thread*

Hello Bongo!! thought you'd pop back.

I have to commed you for that.

More bulldust from Banjo:

"He continues to show his ignorance by claiming that opposition to FGM is xenophobic and an attack on muslims."

What I actually said was:

"For the record, I don't condone the practice of female genital mutilation in Australia or anywhere else. I'd just rather it was discussed factually, rather than utilised as an obviously extreme stick with which to beat all Muslims."

Does Banjo actually know how to make a point without seriously distorting the truth, fabricating statements, or resorting to outright lies? Trust him to be attracted to PALE&IF's hopelessly convoluted xenophobic babbling.

PALE, continued
Your rational approach, in promoting alternatives to the live trade recognises the importance the mutton trade is to Australia. We have about 3 million surplus mutton sheep to dispose of annually. We consume practically no mutton ourselves and if middle eastern countries did not take it we would be big losers.

This effects not only farmers incomes but all the thousands of workers involved in the sheep industry and the mutton trade.

I am still interested in learning about government duplicity and double standards in relation to any groups, muslim or otherwise. In my view everyone should get equal treatment and oppotunity.
