God could be use the Aussie government in exchange for our own government, ACLU, CAIR, etc. worshippers of the "Religion of Peace?
RACISM!!! /s
What a country!!
But deaf ears?
In 5 years, I have not hears a peep out of the Muslims that terrorism is evil. And we probably never will.
Why can't any of OUR politicos say things like this!!!???
For Muslims to teach peace from their scripture they will need to rewrite the Koran as well as the Hadith by Bukhari, the Tarikh by Tabari, Ishaq's Sirat Rasul Allah, and any other Islamic scriptures. Excluding facts from religious scriptures poses a serious problem for its practitioners.
Long ago I remember an Australian Army outfit down the road. We were not supposed to visit them. Well, so much for military rules!
The loved to swap their stuff for ours, tell stories, be entertaining hosts, drink a lot of beer, and play the old "who has the biggest pair of balls". Americans found this way of life congenial, shall we say. Once you could figure out what the heck they were saying!
Anyway, all of those lads (actually they were a few years older than we were) did indeed have a big pair. Reckless almost but never when it counted. You could rely on them.
More than I can say for a lot of "Americans". Present company excepted, of course.
""Because it is your faith that is being invoked as justification for these evil acts, it is your problem. "

Exactly!
Hurray for the Aussies. We need more of this.
People need to realize that the Koran allows condemnation of terrorists acts (if it makes Islam look bad), but they cannot condemn any muslim in particular.
We need to always ask, "Do you condemn each person responsible?"
They won't, ever.
"Interesting response by the Aussies" ping...let us see if the muslims respond reasonably.
Maybe Bush has been taking notes? Re: the news conference performance yesterday.
