Of course, you could reduce the "discussion" to this: What is the difference between Muslims in Australia, and those in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa? I'll leave that to individuals to answer, but remember this, all Muslims preach out of the same book.

If you don't know what is in that book I suggest you find out.

I have no reason to dispute those reports.

No.

What examples of hypocrisy are untrue? I do not think the author ever pointed out the hypocrisy. He just stated facts that if true, would lead a rational person to conclude hypocrisy. So what exactly is 'wrong' with the article?

There's no hypocrisy.

1. I'm not an advocate of multiculturalism.

2. I live in the most multicultural state, and suburb, in the country.

3. Look up 'multiculturalism' in a dictionary.

4. Look up 'dictionary' on google.

1 . You're always the first to throw the gay racist tag around when anyone brings up valid points regarding border protection, the divisiveness of Islam and Australia's immigration policy in general.
2. Over half of the immigration intake in Western Australia are from skilled western countries (for the mining). Not quite Lakemba is it?
3. Western Australia has the lowest proportion of Chinese, Indian and overall middle easterners in Australia (after Tasmania).
4. You yourself admit to having lived all over Australia. What made you decide go buy property in the two whitest states in Australia
5 . You're a pathetic,old, leftard, hypocrite so their is no way you'll tell the trufh about how you 'really' feel about multiculturalism.

I'm not a big fan.

If I could wave a magic wand, I'd take us back to the early '60s.

Having said that, the current situation in Australia doesn't bother me at all.

I live and let live.

Reply #39 - Apr 9^th, 2015 at 9:49pm Dismantling the white Australia policy was an important point in our history. I support multiculturalism because I prefer to live in a cosmopolitan society. Muslims reject multiculturalism or any tolerance of pluralism. It is in the Koran. Therefore we need to reject Muslims.

Are there any specific lies in the article?

"CRITICISE Islam and you’re an “Islamophobe”

Nonsense.

I criticise Islam, and I'm no Islamophobe.

Islamophobia is a prejudice against, hatred towards, or fear of the religion of Islam or Muslims.

Informed criticism is perfectly fine; it doesn't mean that one hates Islam or is frightened of Muslims.

Really?? When have you ever 'criticised' Islam??

When you hurl the islamophobe slur at critics of Islam you are defending Islam.

13 countries with Islam as the state religion have the death penalty for atheism, this is what dim wits like peccahead defend when they throw the islamophobe slur at critics of Islam

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

Reply #44 - Apr 10^th, 2015 at 9:08am The last great battle for humans will be Christianity versus Islam. And ISIS and the like are making it a reality. They have told Muslims to go out and spread death amongst non Muslim Countries. People hope that it will go away, that it is a momentary thing but it isn't, World War 3 has already begun.
