Australia: Kid gloves syndrome

No one yet charged in the Cronulla riots. Why not? Could it be because too many Australian politicians need the Muslim vote?

From The Australian, with thanks to Rosie:

UNTIL just over a week ago, not one alleged revenge attacker in the wake of last month's race riot in southern Sydney had been charged, despite the charging of up to 30 white men over the initial affray.

Peter Debnam, in the riskiest political move of his five months so far as Opposition leader in NSW, took up the cause. He claimed the state Labor Government of Premier Morris Iemma had encouraged police to go soft on revenge attackers, most thought to be Middle Eastern, because of what he called Labor's political correctness.

Bashings of whites in the southern suburbs followed the riots, as did damage to cars and businesses, mostly smashed windows. One youth has been jailed after an Australia flag was torn down and burnt.

Debnam expanded the conspiracy theory to say many Labor politicians including Iemma, whose electorate of Lakemba has a large Lebanese population, were "indebted" to that community, in part because of the stacking of local Labor branches with members of Middle Eastern descent.

Iemma and NSW police commissioner Ken Moroney described the claims as untrue, outlandish and offensive. Moroney said it had been easy to arrest the whites because of high-quality television video footage. No videos existed of the revenge attacks, he said. Task Force Enoggera, set up with 28 officers to investigate revenge attacks, would do the job.

Then all hell broke loose. Channel Nine broadcast a closed-circuit video showing about 30 Lebanese bashing a bystander at Cronulla after the riot. It's debatable just how recognisable the faces are, but it's expected some perpetrators will be identifiable to those who know them.

Read it all.

Could it be more ominous than vote-pandering? Could it be that the authorities are "racist", or "prejudiced", or "bigots"? Could it be that the authorities somehow believe that the Muslims are not equal to the WASP Aussies, are somehow less, cannot be held to the same standards?

I would imagine the MC crowd would be horrified to consider that people might see them as unenlightened, to see them perpetuating the evil engine that has driven the West as it has rolled over the noble savages of the world.

I would strongly advise that they urge the authorities to throw the friggin' book at all those who may receive a pass. Just to reaffirm their position at the vanguard of warm and fuzzy humanity.

Are the Oz politicos implying that the darker skin of the initial criminals makes them harder to see on video?

Or that they all look alike?

This should be interesting.

I'll pop a Foster's if they'll bust a cap on the criminals.

Like many countries in the west in Australia it is "fashionable and trendy" to be pro-Arab and leftist....not to mention politically correct.
I was around during the 6 Day War and the Yom Kippur War when things were very different. The Australian Labour party was very different then too.
Now there are many state and federal politicians who have muslim voters and since voting here is compulsory they must "do the right thing" even if locals are not happy/discriminated against. Multiculuturalism run amok. Most immigrants to Australia since WW2 wanted to be real Ausssies - even trying to eat the local delicacy meat pie,just to fit in: (I don't recommend it!) This wave of immigrants have unbridgeable differences and although they claim to hate the counrties/political systems of their origin (they say they had to take refuge from them), they are in the process of creating same here. They use the democracy of their new country against it.
I feel the conservative parties are a little different, thankfully - but for how long? Interesting how many western nations now have conservative governments.

Then again,,,some people are just too scared to say "this is our country,,,,when in Rome,,,,"
However, our National Treasurer, Mr Peter Costello had the guts to do this on national television.He went as far as to say if you don't like it - leave! Telephone polls showed 98% of viewers agreed wiith him.
I was quite leftist during the VietNam war,,,but now is the time to adopt views that will keep our western civilization alive.

“UNTIL just over a week ago, not one alleged revenge attacker in the wake of last month's race riot in southern Sydney had been charged, despite the charging of up to 30 white men over the initial affray.”

“…police are nervous right down the line of doing something that could be seen as politically incorrect or lead to a complaint of racial targeting.”

No, we wouldn’t want the perception of racial targetting. So just arrest white people.

"There is a lot of frustration in the community," she says. "They have had a lot to deal with since the rape stories [referring to infamous court cases]. It is a daily reality grappling with public opinion about Middle Eastern people and it won't go away very
soon."

We should indeed feel sympathy for the gang-rapists and their families. Who do these infidels think they are coming up with these laws against rape? Did they just come up with these "laws" yesterday to persecute our boys? The Koran and Hadith clearly allow Muslim men to take/have non-Muslim girl-slaves and captives for sex. (23:1-6, 33:50-52, 4:24, 70:1-30)

Abul Kasem’s article covers many of these issues, on sex with captives, Mohammad’s sex with Aisha, et. http://www.islamreview.com/articles/sexinislam.htm

Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 137:
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
We got female captives in the war booty and we used to do coitus interruptus with them. So we asked Allah's Apostle about it and he said, "Do you really do that?" repeating the question thrice, "There is no soul that is destined to exist but will come into existence, till the Day of Resurrection."

Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 136:
Narrated Jabir:
We used to practice coitus interruptus while the Quran was being revealed. Jabir added: We used to practice coitus interrupt us during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle while the Quran was being Revealed.

Sunan Abu Dawud Book 11, Number 2166:
Narrated AbuSa'id al-Khudri:
A man said: Apostle of Allah, I have a slave-girl and I withdraw the penis from her (while having intercourse), and I dislike that she becomes pregnant. I intend (by intercourse) what the men intend by it. The Jews say that withdrawing the penis (azl) is burying the living girls on a small scale. He (the Prophet) said: The Jews told a lie. If Allah intends to create it, you cannot turn it away.

Always carry a camera phone and download pics to the web,in the future this kind of evedence is needed as the Jihad people become more strident.If more people would docuement what is happening it makes it harder for the pc to stick their head in the sand.

There was an Australian guy who got 4 months in jail for carrying a tree branch. And that was in Penrith, far away from Cronulla.

The tree branch was called an offensive weapon.

Try the "Tooheys Old" instead mate its way better:P

Whilst the MSN and the system may have bin a lil slow on the uptake over Aussies under racist attack here, the net media is alive with debate in Oz

http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/index.asp

is a large uni sponsered blog usually comment is held by the left, but latley many pro Australians (white black left and right) have come in and defended their country, that infact we have largly taken over the forum.

We have a very famous moderate here with alot of sway in our society called Keysar Trad, Aussies will know him and his powerful postition

please pass this Aussie hate speech by him around as he's fairly well accepted by the Aussie public as genuine.

http://www.islam.org.au/articles/16/RACISM.HTM

It’s an essay from 96/7 by Keyser Trad,

Here’s a sample:
“our ideology is the best salvation for the people of Australia, and the people of the world in general. Yes, we are a threat to the culture of drunkenness, paedophilia, and mostly we are a big threat to the culture of ELITISM."

"In a way, they feel safe because of the quantity of water which surrounds this country, so they feel fortified behind this great body, it gives them a feeling of security. But the reality is, the land belongs to God, not to them, and if those foreigners, whom they fear as migrants are not permitted to enter as migrants, they will come as settlers, in numbers so large that they will not be able to process them, hold them, or stop them. What will they do then? If these foreigners who are restraining themselves, because they see a legal hope, that they can come to this vast mainly uninhabited land for whatever reason, are told that there is no longer a legal way to come here, what will they do?"

It's intesly vile and needs to be seen as does his hate of the gay comunity:

http://www.greenleft.org.au/back/2002/519/519p7b.htm

* Sheik Shadi, an Islamic cleric, called for an Islamic court to be set up in Australia, which would give Muslims the power to stone gay men and lesbians to death;

* Keysar Trad, vice-president of the Lebanese Muslim Association, rejected the concept of anti-discrimination and anti-vilification legislation and urged Muslims to defy these laws; and

* Hannan Dover, a lecturer in psychology at UWS (Bankstown), told the meeting that she would not allow a gay lecturer at the university to attend the lecture. She also informed the audience that she would not allow progressive, pro-gay Muslims to attend the lecture, nor would she allow them to join a group she was establishing for Muslim health workers.


A friend in Sydney told me Aussies were walking around all over the place with our flag up high on the recent Australia Day Celebrations. This is new and fantastic

Meat pie with tomato sauce (ketchup) is a great feed mate.

They have a weak leftist state government and this has filtered down into the police management and has permitted the moslems to be treated lightly after they commit their crimes. But the mood of the people is changing, the people are becoming aware of the problem despite the general lack of media coverage.

One TV station got hold of the video footage of the guy being bashed by 20 "brave" moslems the the police had held for 4 weeks. The TV station cleaned it up and aired it within 24 hours, you could see participants quite well.

Keysar Trad = moslem mouthpiece, said he did not know any of them (yeah right)

Meredith~nice link to the forum. Looks like a poster is wanted the journalist's to be brought to task for being too honest and new laws to stop the journalists from printing sensational stories like the beach riots. Crimp the freedom of the press and that will surely solve your problems! Right....

Archimedes,
I can cope with a party pie and sauce after living here all but 9 months of my life;))

But seriously, thanks to you and Mark52 for all your info,esp on Keyser Trad. I have seen him on tv, and read about him on www.honestreporting.com . I will check out the links. Heard about the video also.
I also know things are not nearly as bad in Victoria, and hope it never happens although it almost did before Christmas. NSW may have left it too long.

Mark

do you have more info on Keysar Trad? i am stunned at what i am finding ie the links above.

welcome to Oz Gramfan :P
