You said - Saint, I would be all for you going down to Hurstville Council and kicking up a ruckus about a proposed mosque in South Hurstville, but I don't think it would do any good, because the said mosque is covered by Kogarah Council.

Response - and if/when said Councils (Hurstville/Kogarah/Rockdale(?) merge? .....issues remain the same, if not greater impact on all residents.

If you had researched King Georges Road - particularly 849 King Georges Road - one would be aware of how busy King Georges Road is, and more particularly the length of road - and Councils such road would include, including current demographic of area/s.

I welcome any discussion.

In Victoria the State Government approved the wearing of a dagger by Sikhs.The sect requires men to wear the turban and the dagger.
The purpose of the dagger is to kill Muslims,who may attack them.
In Melton, Victoria the Sikh community were approved a temple.
Now the local council objected to the construction of a mosque but this was overturned by the State Government.
We now have Sikh men walking around with a large dagger on display.
Welcome to Victoria.2016.

Nice try for a stir Brock, but you must try to do better, do a bit of research before launching.
Firstly Sikhism is not a sect but a religion, in fact the fifth largest religion in the world.
The Kirpan (knife or sword) is carried for religious purposes and is not a dagger, it is not carried to kill Muslims and is not particularly well designed as a knife (its usual form outside India) and is often not sharpened at all.

One can understand a council approving a Sikh Temple and refusing approval for a Mosque; Sikhs, unlike Muslims, do not have a Holy Book that approves of lying, beating wives and forcing conversion on non-members of one's religion.

You obviously still don't get it... do you?

No Aussie wishes to kill a Muslim! Most Aussies have Muslim friends, who are neighbours and respect one another, we live in harmony – or is that your alleged issue? – that Aussies show respect for one another, no matter what colour, creed or religious beliefs they hold.

So I pose a question to you - with all migration of peoples to Australia for many generations, no matter their ethnicity, colour or religious beliefs - said generations, have all lived in peace and assimilated with their new country. Why is it that “terrorist” attacks against Australians are being committed by “our youth” – yes, that’s correct - Australia’s young citizens?

The proposed Mosque for King Georges Road is being opposed due to “demographic” of area. So do suggest some further research required by you, as maybe you live in Victoria and proposed Mosque being built in Sydney.

If you have any further comment, am most welcome to discuss.

Thanks for your post.

Proposed Mosque is being opposed due to demographic issues of area. King Georges Road currently bounds three Coucils, Canterbury, Hurstville and Kogarah... and has "no parking" restrictions at various times of day..... King Georges Road is the "heart beat" for police, ambulance and fire brigades to areas and suburbs along this route.

I could certainly write a book about the History of King Georges Road, maybe book should contain the fact that through Beverly Hills (King Georges Road) Hurstville Council built and planted "palm trees" along strip. Now Police, Ambulance, and Fire Brigades are unable to access "other side of road" in any emergency - as in the past, due to building a brick wall with "palm trees" ..so what value do you put on any "life" when time to get to patient, accident is critical....but hey - we don't matter. Council wanted the "Beverly Hills" Hollywood effect.
