WH>'Anti-Muslim' Australia attacked

WH>FIREBRAND Islamic convert Yvonne Ridley has accused Australians of being
WH>among the worst Muslim haters in the world.

WH>As millions of Australians celebrated Easter, they were branded
WH>Islamophobes by the outspoken British woman.

WH>She believes Australian attitudes to Islam are hardening faster than any
WH>other nation.

 LL> Maybe other non-Muslim nations should do the same, given Muslim
 LL> attitudes towards non-Muslims.

Well, it is happening in a number of European countries.

WH>"I'm deeply shocked," Ms Ridley said.

WH>"It's not what it was when I was last here three years ago.

WH>"I've visited over 20 different countries in the last three years and
WH>Australia is the most shocking in terms of deterioration."

 LL> Non-Muslims will only tolerate so much abuse by Muslims.  At some
 LL> point, non-Muslims say "ENOUGH! GO HOME! WE DON'T WANT YOU HERE!"

For now, the non-Muslim governments continue to bend over backwards (or
forwards?) to accommodate Muslims and their increasingly onerous demands,
and offer "cultural sensitivity training" to people with the ticker to
stand up to it, but that will change, perhaps when the next Muslim terror
attack occurs on a major Western "infidel" target. The time for
"Islam is
a religion of peace hijacked by a tiny minority of extremists" platitudes
from Bush, Blair, Howard etc will end, & they will be forced to tackle
Islam head on.

WH>Ms Ridley, 48, will speak about Islamophobia today at a controversial
WH>Muslim conference at Melbourne University.

WH>Thousands are expected to attend a series of lectures over the weekend.

WH>Organisers laughed off suggestions the 1st Annual Australian Islamic
WH>Conference was staged over Easter to insult Christians.

WH>"We certainly meant no insensitivity," organiser Adel Salman said.
WH>"We weren't making any particular statement or any religious statement.

WH>"It was purely a convenient time to schedule the conference."

 LL> Yeah, right.  And 9/11 was "purely a convenient time to schedule a
 LL> terrorist attack on American soil".

In a sense, that may be true, as Easter is a four day weekend, with public
holidays on Friday & Monday, making it easy to hold a conference in a
university etc. Apparently no such holidays in the USA. ?

 LL> For those not familiar with why Muslims chose 9/11 as the date of
 LL> their "jihad" on the civilized world, 9/11 in the Muslim calendar
 LL> is 7/11. The year 711 A.D. (Gregorian calendar) was the first
 LL> successful invasion of Muslims into Christian Europe.

They do choose the dates for their major outrages carefully.

WH>Two controversial sheiks have been refused visas to speak at the
WH>conference.

WH>Several politicians also wanted Ms Ridley banned.

WH>The former investigative reporter was briefly held captive by the Taliban
WH>in Afghanistan in 2001 and converted to Islam two years later.

WH>She discourages British Muslims from co-operating with anti-terrorism
WH>police and she refers to suicide bombings as "martyrdom operations".

 LL> Contrary to what some folks might think, 9/11 (and 3/11) do not
 LL> represent the most significant dates for Muslims.  While it is true
 LL> that Muslims chose 9/11 (711 in Muslim calendar) for a big event,
 LL> there is another date, more important to Muslims, which will be
 LL> used for a much bigger event.  And that event will make 9/11 look
 LL> like a minor traffic accident.  Want to take a wild guess as to
 LL> what that date is?

 LL> Sidenote: What was the date of the Bali bombing?
