Does Australia Really Need More Religious Muslims?

Note: Three stories below are from the wires and show the reality of Islam when it is able to play itself out on the public stage. In Australia, at the moment, Islam cannot do these sort of things. The best way to keep Australia free from these situations is to stop all further religious muslim migration and visits. Secular muslims are not a problem.


Story 1.
Indonesia: Government wants non-Muslims tried by Islamic court
This will, of course, lead to a systematic denial of equality of rights to non-Muslims if Sharia is fully implemented. "Indonesia: Government Wants Non-Muslims Tried By Acheh Islamic Court," from AKI, with thanks to Nicolei:



Banda Aceh, 26 April (AKI/Jakarta Post) - The Indonesian government has insisted that Muslims and non-Muslims alike in Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam district of Muslim-devout Aceh province should be tried by a planned Islamic Court. Non-Muslims accused of committing crimes such as theft and adultery, would be tried under the Sharia inspired bylaws, state secretary Yusril Ihza Mahendra told the special committee deliberating a crucial bill on Aceh's future administration.

Mahendra, responding to the proposals of several legislators who wanted non-Muslims to be given the freedom to choose under which law they would be tried, said it would only create legal uncertainty.

"Should such freedom be given, non-Muslims will certainly choose to be tried under the Criminal Code, because it carries more lenient punishment," Yusril told the hearing, held to discuss the authority of the planned Islamic Court, also known as Mahkamah Sharia.

Yusril said that in the case of adultery, non-Muslims who committed adultery with Muslims would undoubtedly opt for trial by Indonesia's penal code, because it was more lenient than stoning or other forms of corporal punishment stipulated under Islamic Law.


Story 2.
Christians on the West Bank face more fire bomb attacks
Islamic Tolerance Alert from Ekklesia, with thanks to Cornelius:

A Roman Catholic parish school and a Protestant Bible-study centre in the West Bank have been fire-bombed twice since the Islamist Hamas movement won a legislative election in January 2006, according to Christian clerics in the region.
According to the Presbyterian Church USA News Service, a priest at the Roman Catholic Al-Ahliyya College in the West Bank city of Ramallah says that several fire-bombs were thrown into a school sports room in early March 2006, causing serious damage and destroying equipment stored there.

About a month earlier, said the same priest, several petrol bombs were thrown into an Al-Ahliyya classroom.

In other recent incidents, a Protestant Bible-study centre in the town of Bir-Zeit near Ramallah was attacked, and phrases from the Qur’an were daubed on its doors. Windows in a Lutheran church in Ramallah were also shattered by unknown assailants.



Story 3.
Muslims who skip Friday prayers can be punished
A There-Is-No-Compulsion-In-Religion Update from Malaysia. From The Star, with thanks to Nicolei:

KOTA BARU: Skipping Friday prayers is a major sin for Muslims and it is punishable under the state’s Syariah laws, said Kelantan Bar Committee chairman Datuk Wan Harun Shukri Noordin.
Therefore, Muslims in the state must remember that Friday prayers are compulsory, otherwise they can be jailed or fined by the religious authorities, he said yesterday.

He was commenting on a recent case in which a Muslim man was fined by the Syariah Court here for not attending the weekly prayers.



Comment: Although Australia is a multicultural country and has benefitted greatly fom migration and will continue to do so, the religious muslims do not 'play the game'. They are not entitled to the benefits of multiculturalism because they do not accept the principles of multiculturalism.

Hard decisions often have to be made. This is one of them.

Ban religious muslim migration and visits to Australia. Future generations of Australians will thank us for this foresight.
