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.'

This is going to get worse (Muslims trying to trump secular law in
countries traditionally non-Muslim), and I don't like it. Keep religion
out of politics.

I say all the religions either tollerate each other or get out.

Is this for real? I can hardly believe my eyes that a man with a European
heritage would think enough of it to tell some wogs where to get off.

The leaders of the US had the same healthy attitude 50 years ago but have
become a pack of gibbering lunatics, letting their culture die in the
name of some insane guff about 'multiculturalism'. I guess it is the same
thing in the UK

Good for Rudd. Good for Australia.

Pennsylvania High School Rescinds Ban on Muslim Scarves
Wednesday, February 18, 2009
By Diane Macedo

A Pennsylvania high school is permitting Muslim students to wear scarves
known as kaffiyehs in school just a day after ordering two students to
remove them for class.

Gateway High School officials met with parents Wednesday after seniors
Mohammad Al-Abbasi, 18, and Ahmad Al-Sadr, 17, left school Tuesday after
refusing to take off the checkered scarves, believed by some to be a symbol
of terrorism.

District spokeswoman Cara Zanella told FOXNews.com the ban was an attempt to
diffuse tension between Jewish and Muslim students, after three students
wore shirts to school saying "RIP Israel."

The students removed the shirts when ordered to do so but the incident led
to a petition from Jewish students saying they felt threatened, Zanella
said.

A student then wrote an article in one of the local newspapers about Muslim
dress, reportedly caling the scarves "hate" clothing.

"As a result then the tensions started to escalate between the two
factions," Zanella said. "So the principal went back to the students and
said, 'We're trying to get everyone on the same page here. Could you agree
not to wear the scarves for the time being because the tensions are
escalating?'"

The students agreed and complied until the incident Tuesday.

In response the principal gathered the students in question Wednesday along
with parents, school officials and a number of faith based organizations to
find a resolution to the matter.

"It was agreed upon today in the meeting that the students would be allowed
to wear the scarves," Zanella said. "They also wanted the students to speak
in a group session with one another - the 35 Jewish students that signed the
letter to the principal, the students who were wearing the scarves, and the
student that did the article."

That meeting was also held Wednesday morning and Zanella said "everyone came
out of the meeting with a new sense of respect for the different cultures."

"I think everyone there recognized there's some tensions in the school and
also amongst the community," Al-Abbas's mother Loretta Riggs told the
Pittsburgh Post Gazette. "We recognize the need for further education and
further dialogue. We were very happy that the school district acknowledged
this. They're willing to hold such future dialogues."
