The slavers continued until the 19th century when the US got fed up
with the attacks on their ships and sent in the Marines.
Hence their anthem "From the shores of Tripoli--".

Those that ignore history will repeat it !

Lot more later.

Well, well, well.
What's this I hear.
An ABC poll, none the less, has found that 60% of the people canvassed, 'AGREED' with this Anning guy.
The loony left are looking for windows to jump out of.
So much for all the goody two shoes babbling that some on OLO go on about.
Real people, the ones who are not brainwashed or contaminated by PC crap, who are not 'well meaning'?, and not have the emotional and cognitive reasoning of some five year olds, or uni students for that matter, see things for what they are and not what they're told.
I am always gracious in victory and I won't carry on like a lefty loony.

Bazz,
How dare you state facts. You're denying the do-gooders of the loony Left a chance to argue.

The difference is we as people all have life spans, where as Islam is a movement.

My fear is there will come a time when the numbers are strong enough, 10,20,50 or even 100 years from now, where so called moderate Muslims will be forced to choose between their faith, or the country they have called home.

I think I have a fair idea which way they will go, don't you!

rehctub,
i know a few australian blokes who have switched to Islam so that they could marry Malay & Indonesian women.
Imagine how many, especially leftist Australians will flock towards Islam once they're promised Dollars ?

I understand that a 10% Muslim population is where the trouble really starts. I wish our thick politicians would realise that Muslim immigration is much more dangerous to the West than terrorism. Immigration is now the PRIME method for creating a world caliphate.

The more Muslims, the fewer Christians. Forget the Islamophobia invented by the Left; Christians are the most persecuted minority in majority Muslim countries. Look at the Copts in Egypt. There are areas in the Middle East where Christianity prevailed well before Islam arrived, but there are no longer Christians in those areas. In most of the African continent, Christians have been driven out or destroyed. Since Western interference in Iraq, the Christian population has been decimated. In the very cradle of Christianity, Christians are no more.

And, for those of you who think Christians could not be persecuted in a white, sophisticated country like Australia - you are dreaming. White Western Leftists are already condemning and speaking against Christianity . You don't have to look further than this site to know that. These people are the same people who are apologists for Islam; they will go further and be in cahoots with Islam when the right time comes - in the belief that they will be safe. The idiots don't realise that, if any people have total contempt for atheists, it is Muslims. But, the anti-Christian Left is too busy tearing down its own culture to realise who their really enemies are
