ban any new mosque
Jun 22^nd, 2014 at 8:13pm

ban any new mosque.

Most people in there want sharia law over Australia
they are unaustralian and anti our lifestyle.

Quote:

A COMMUNITY meeting has turned heated after angry Gold Coast residents gathered to object to a mosque being built in their area.

A crowd of about 250 people heckled Gold Coast councillor Chris Robbins when she was explaining the council process of approving applications, in reference to the proposal to build a mosque on Cannon St, Currumbin.

“You can object to it, you can hate it or whatever, but the law is you can’t discriminate,” Cr Robbins said.

“The town plan is not able to discriminate and say that a land use ... can only be used for a particular religion.”

Cr Robbins continued to attempt to quell the crowd - even as it started raining - by explaining how residents could object to the development through the council process.

However, at times, her advice was drowned by cries about not wanting “that culture here”.

Organiser Tracey Thompson was adamant the gathering was “not a protest”. She said it was just a gathering to provide locals with information on how lodge an objection to the development.

“This is not about race,” Mrs Thompson told The Courier-Mail.

“This is about objecting to the amplified music and the additional traffic the development will bring.

“And the other concern is the amplified music will effect the special needs children at the school located about 500m up the road from the proposed development.”

Speakers at the event explained how residents could object to the application by lodging a submission online.

Suggested objections circulated to the crowd via flyers included that the development was too close to residential and light industrial properties in the area.

Among the crowd were groups like the Brisbane-based Freedom and Heritage Society of Australia, who claimed they defended the “national identity”.

They affirmed their objections to the development were not based on race, but they said they opposed all threats to Australians “freedoms and values”.

National secretary David Truman said the culture of Islam here would result in “ghettos” and an increase in violent assaults like “rape”.

“At the end of the day it’s not just about local issues like noise and traffic, it’s also about what happens when a mosque comes to your area,” Mr Truman said.

“It’s about the impact on the community and the lack of social sustainability.”

No one representing the proposed development was at the meeting.

I have a friend from Dubai. He lives in Australia to get away from it all. He said it starts with the mosque. Then the call to prayer at a very low level. They all move in. He laughed at me regarding the call to prayer he said it WILL get louder and there is nothing you can do to stop it once they have all moved in and surround you.

Most Mosques in Australia are SUNNI but the thick heads around will encourage the culture to fester here. People like some here would be the first to wail out loud should it happen in their neighborhood. Pathetic losers just trolling.

So you saying the qld goverment dont want Muslim tourism?

You want to get owned again?

There are many halal restaurants on the gold coast, they have mosques, even some of the major entertainment precints like dream world have a prayer room and serve halal food.

Seems like the qld goverment had no issue with this Muslim, or maybe they just wanted his money.

Dubai ruler had 'special ties with Queensland'

The ruler of Dubai and the United Arab Emirates Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashed al-Maktoum, who died on the Gold Coast yesterday, has been described as a great friend of Queensland.

Sheikh Maktoum, 62, who was prime minister as well as deputy president of the UAE, suffered a heart attack yesterday at the Palazzo Versace resort and was pronounced dead on arrival at the Gold Coast Hospital just before 1pm (AEST).

The body of the sheikh, who was one of the world's richest men, has been sent back to Dubai and the UAE government has declared 40 days of mourning and government institutions will be closed for a week to mark his death.

Acting Queensland Premier Anna Bligh has sent letters of sympathy to Sheikh Maktoum's family, the UAE government and the UAE Embassy in Canberra.

"Sheikh Maktoum has been a great friend to Queensland and he will be sadly missed," she said today.

"We have a very strong and developing relationship with the UAE and I am sure that this will continue.

"Our mutual interests vary from education, to tourism, horse racing and construction."

Queensland's trade to the UAE has been averaging about $83 million a year over the past five years.

Big spending visitors have also made their mark in the state, especially on the Gold Coast over July and August and for the Gold Coast's Magic Millions each January.

One of the biggest spending visitors was Sheikh Maktoum who was staying at the six-star Palazzo Versace with family and staff numbering 33 at the time of his death.

Actually,according to figures I last saw, the arabs are currently the biggest spending tourists on the gold coast .... I know a guy that works at loui vuitton and he says it's not unusual for them to come in and buy 3 or 4+ handbags, of the multi thousand dollar variety, without batting an eye. If they have multiple wives, they book multiple hotel rooms, multiple dinners, multiple everything ... it's not hard to see why they are more welcome than most Wink

CHINA TO BE THE MAIN SOURCE FOR GROWTH
China is the largest contributor to both the growth of inbound arrivals and inbound expenditure. In
terms of visitor numbers, from 2012–13 to 2022–23, China will contribute about 24 per cent to the
total growth. Further, about 40 per cent of inbound tourism expenditure will be sourced from China
over the forecast period.

Why is it only jews can have special courts?

Rabbis to settle Jewish disputes in special court

VICTORIA'S Jewish community has set up a special court to resolve disputes involving its members.

Specially trained rabbis will handle civil and commercial issues using a combination of Jewish and Australian law.

The court, known as a Beth Din, has previously only dealt with matters relating to divorce and the conversion to Judaism.

Rabbinical Council of Victoria president Rabbi Meir Shlomo Kluwgant said the court would offer parties arbitration and mediation to resolve disputes so they wouldn't need to go through the normal legal system.

"It's not trying to go beyond the law - quite the opposite - it's trying to support the law by creating a venue within the community to resolve disputes," he said.

"Australia is a very multicultural society, which means it respects the fact that we've got a diverse community with varying cultural, religious and faith backgrounds, and this is a major step towards recognising that in a very practical way."

Rabbi Kluwgant denied that approval of the Jewish court would spark calls by some Muslims for the introduction of sharia law.

"Personally, I haven't heard of any circumstances where it's been a suggestion, the implementation of sharia law in Victoria or Australia," he said.

"(But) from my discussions with people from the Muslim community, I think they would also embrace the idea of having a venue to resolve disputes in accordance with the Arbitration Act, where the awards would be enforceable in the Australian courts."

Some Islamic religious and community leaders have previously called for the consideration of a limited form of sharia law in Australia related to banking practices and family law.

It is funny the funding sources for some of these Mosques as that is what is exactly happening. They are building them in most cases where they want too and for some reason the councilors involved mum's the word when it comes to anyone saying they don't want it. Islam by its own teachings is incompatible with the west. Its the silly Islam must dominate the world teaching that brings it to fester in our local neighborhoods and countries otherwise there is no reason why they wouldn't stay in the Islamic countries where clearly they and us would be more happier. Unless of course they have turned into dumps. I appreciate you're an Islamic apologist wally, but no need to start calling people trolls because they disagree with you wally. Wink
