MUSLIM BACKLASH

Finally, someone speaks out unequivocally! Generally, I believe western nations have responded to the harsh, irrational rants, confrontational tactics and atrocities of radical Muslims living in western societies with excessively accommodating rhetoric. I suspect that the Prime Minister of Australia has finally stated what many western leaders are now wishing they had said long ago.



This is not to say that I support intolerance. On the contrary, I do believe very strongly that tolerance certainly has its undeniable virtues. Yet it is necessary that tolerance exhibit a healthy balance between accommodation and self preservation. Sadly this has not been the case and the radical Muslim community has steadily gotten the better of the bargain. Rudd, to his credit, has stopped the rot and I gather that the majority of Australians supports his position. This is clearly understandable given the steep price innocent Australians have paid in atrocities committed by radical Muslims.



But there is a haunting paradox of which we must never lose sight. On the opposing, mainly Christian, side of the fence we also have very many outspoken, self righteous believers whose behavior and positions basically mirror those of the radical Muslim supporters. The dutch M.P. who now preaches benign ethnic cleansing for his country is a case in point. This kind of mirrored behavior is as likely to favorably influence the behavior of radical Muslims as a shadow is likely to influence the movement of the body that casts the shadow. Harmful radical positions and behavior must recognize the right of accommodating societies and cultures to establish acceptable thresholds against positions and behavior which threaten the common good and the very survival of a society's culture. Generally, Muslims have consistently and effectively forced the acceptance of their own cultural thresholds. It is time they understand that what is good for the goose is also good for the gander. This is not only fair but necessary and just.



Subject: A leader with guts

The Whole world needs a Leader like this!

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

Separately, Rudd angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.

Quote:

" 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT’.

Take It Or Leave It.

I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom. We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!

Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.

We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us. This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'

If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted."
