Having returned from travelling Europe,Tony Abbott is every Europeans
hero.
As soon as people realise you are Australia they say they love Abbott.From France England Italy and Germany all agreed that Abbott was wonderful.
Twenty years ago Europeans would verbally attack you for our treatment of Aboriginals.
I was at Munich Rail Station when the fanatical Muslims who were kicked out of Syria told me their stories in September.
Quote "The Jews kicked my family out of Palestine,now Assad has bombed my home he hates Muslims.

Armchair Critic,

"....Thanks for your valid question about why global government is bad.

(And if Is Mise doesnt think its real and that your question ...."

Pray tell me, what are you on about?

Conservativehippie,
Yeah but in Maharashtra,Bihar and Gujarat multiculturalism and civic nationalism has largely broken down along religious lines, Kerala is the exception rather than the rule. Bear in mind we're talking about huge numbers of people here,Kerala only has 34 million people with 25% Muslims, Maharashtra has 113 million citizens with about 11% Muslims.
When you're talking about Islam percentages matter, I don't know a lot about Kerala but with such a large Muslim population it's likely that the Hindus and Christians have submitted to the demands of Muslims to keep the peace, that's the way Islam usually operates.
The difference between India and the West is that there's no political correctness so they have open and frank discussions of religious differences and issues and attempts are made to deal with problems before they spiral out of control.
In India the courts deal with Muslim demands and complaints and make rulings on religious practice, what is constitutional, what is not and so forth, the Islamist activists often lose cases too.
So in many countries with large Muslim populations the state and the courts will intervene and pass judgement on religious matters, whereas in Western countries they generally don't.
I'd recommend following the major Indian news services on Facebook, their coverage of social matters is very interesting

No, Jay of Melbourne, I don't fancy having a court system like India at all!
I am mostly happy with our Australian system.
I don't want religion involved in our court system in any way, including the rubbish of swearing on a bible. We all know that lies are still told, no matter what book you have a hand on, or whether you believe in imaginary gods or not.

I don't care how Europeans view our immigration policy.
It is none of their business unless they are planning to emigrate here themselves.
I would suggest most Europeans are jealous of our successful multicultural society that is so good that everyone wants to emigrate here.
It beats me why many on this forum whine about it all so much.

Suse,

"I would suggest most Europeans are jealous of our successful multicultural society that is so good that everyone wants to emigrate here"

Maybe they see our society as more desirable because we have less Muslims than they do.

Is Mise, you never give up do you?
I think my husband understands how innocent Muslims feel, as he remembers being called an IRA terrorist because he was an Irish Catholic living in England in the 1980's.

He has never struck anyone in anger in his whole life.
So our house feels upset for those poor sods who are being blamed by association, especially those Muslim families living in Paris and just minding their own business.
