o sung wu,

"...bitterness...toxic....poison...."

Ho hum.

I have a bit of a say - as has everyone on this thread.

And because I disagree with you and the majority - I'm (apparently) afflicted in the above way.

Yep, one rule for yerselves and another for anyone who disagrees with you.

Poirot - Quote "The hilarity is that you guys on this thread are demonstrating EXACTLY the behaviour that you decry in the people you are criticising." TOTALLY LUDICROUS STATEMENT

If they were coming here and protesting by posting on the media, I would not care, you will find I have never done or been convicted of doing anything these people have for example causing $9 million dollars damage to property, rape, sexual assault, sending threatening letter to people, NOTHING so your whole argument defies logic.

csteele - Quote "Five clowns decide to take it upon themselves to be some sort of 'God squad' outside a Mosque in London, without the sanction of the Mosque officials who subsequently firmly condemn their actions, and then get themselves arrested for their troubles and suddenly Australia is in grave fear of being “reduced to a Moslem war zone”?"

A few clowns got together Hitler, Rohm, Himmler and Geobbels they were condemed by many people but still look what happened.

It has to be again and again noted that I am still waiting for the answers to my questions and what the lies and half truths are.

Well the bait has been taken, the hook firmly set.
Based on a thought bubble from an unknown on social media, csteele yet again lets us get hot under the collar, and too gets a chance to both damn us and protect Islam.
More than that is at stake.
A great deal more.
Poirot, a poster I respect, dashes in from the sidelines, tlay the slipper in, too any one with a different view.
About 800 years ago Islam was at its peak, we will hear about the crusaders, maybe much said about them was true, the bad parts.
Islam once lead the world, science and many things.
Now here, and world wide, MAKE NO MISTAKE, this is what this thread is about.
They DEMAND AN END TO? FREEDOM OF SPEECH!
We westerners by the way, are told even by our governments, and the United Nations, a dreadful group , that we must remain open to all views.
Csteele, by his post, wants to silence us.
No mention however of *our dead are in heaven yours are in hell*!

Poirot's political correctness would censor any criticism of violent Muslims while spinning stories of the moral superiority of the religion and traditions over the very lacking Australian culture. It is called the cultural cringe of the Left and the Greens are notorious for it.

Political correctness at work in the UK,

<Police 'covered up' violent campaign to turn London area 'Islamic'
Police have been accused of “covering up” a campaign of abuse, threats and violence aimed at “Islamicising” an area of London.

By Andrew Gilligan

Victims say that officers in the borough of Tower Hamlets have ignored or downplayed outbreaks of hate crime, and suppressed evidence implicating Muslims in them, because they fear being accused of racism.

The claims come as four Tower Hamlets Muslims were jailed for at least 19 years for attacking a local white teacher who gave religious studies lessons to Muslim girls.

The Sunday Telegraph has uncovered more than a dozen other cases in Tower Hamlets where both Muslims and non-Muslims have been threatened or beaten for behaviour deemed to breach fundamentalist “Islamic norms.”>

In Australia, police are condemned for posting 'ethnic' descriptions of offenders sought for serious crimes. Gun crimes, murder and rape are trivial compared with the risk of offending against the PC decrees of multiculturalists.

O Sung Wu,
Don't even consider quitting OLO. Your posts are reasonable and well thought out.

Remember that OLO has many more readers than posters, so your views are reaching far more that the few you debate with. I am willing to bet that most find your posts ageeable as I do. It is good to read the views of someone that has many years experience in dealing with all sorts of people.

Good afternoon to you again, POIROT...

The fact that you have a need to resort to your quaint 'one liners' demonstrates you're bereft of arguement. Similarily, your continued resorting to 'links', ad nauseam, for the same reason ?

Come on POIROT, you can do better than that ? Or is it all becoming a little tedious for you these days ? I know what you mean ? It gets a little lonely doesn't it POIROT - reaching for that word, that phrase, developing good syntax, the careful use of adjectives, and my biggest error, the overuse of contractions and the ellipsis. And the most tiring of all; researching all those 'links' ? Indeed it sure becomes all very wearisome, doesn't it ?

Equally as tiring I should think, is aligning yourself with poor ol' CSTEELE and his peculiar consortium of (very) demented Islamic brethern ! All the while the Mufti's are loudly roaring away with laughter, at poor CSTEELE'S feeble efforts to be recognised by them ! At the very least you'd think they'd give him a little prayer mat ?

It all must be so exhausting for you, given you have little or no truck with anything that lad has to say ? Almost a case of CSTEELE being led around like a little puppy on a lead, being taken for his obligatory 'walkies' by you, (wearing your mandatory burkha, of course) ?

Someone out there, for goodness sake give young CSTEELE, his little prayer mat ! Nothing special you understand. It doesn't need a pattern, as long as it's servicable (without bullet holes, or any residual of AN60, please ?) Otherwise he'll pay out on us all, big time ! You all know what he's like ? Last time, he threatened to stand in the corner, hold his breath, until he turned blue ? None of us wish for that to happen eh ?
