THE face of an extremist Muslim group calling for the establishment of an Islamic Caliphate will appear at a $25-a-head Sydney Opera 

House function to support “honour killings”.

Hizb ut-Tahrir spokesman Uthman Badar’s appearance as a headline speaker at the Festival of Dangerous Ideas comes after six young 

Sydney Muslims have been killed fighting in Syria and Iraq.

The subject of Mr Badar’s speech is “Honour killings are morally justified”.

“The accuser and moral judge is the secular (white) westerner and the accused is the oriental other; the powerful condemn the 

powerless,” Mr Badar’s bio reads.

“By taking a particular cultural view of honour, some killings are condemned whilst others are celebrated. In turn, the act becomes a 

symbol of everything that is allegedly wrong with the other culture.”

The Festival of Dangerous Ideas is hosted by the Sydney Opera House and St James Ethics Centre.

Mr Badar last year blamed terrorism on the Federal Government and the group has previously attacked the Anzac’s Gallipoli battle.

Co-curator Ann Mossop would not confirm if Mr Badar would receive an appearance fee.

“Uthman Badar is not speaking as a representative of Hizb ut-Tahrir, he is a PhD student at the University of Western Sydney. He hasn’t 

been asked to speak in his official capacity,” Ms Mossop said.

“If you want to talk about the information we’ve put out, we have announced Uthman Badar will be giving a talk about honour killings 

and about whether it can be morally justified.

“He is not advocating honour killing. There is a distinct line between discussing ideas about something and advocating violence, he is 

not saying people should perpetrate honour killings.”

There has been a backlash on Twitter against the decision to appoint Mr Badar

Channel 9 and 2GB host Ben Fordham tweeted “WTF! Why is the Sydney Opera House hosting a talk titled “Honour killings are morally justified”.

A RADICAL Sydney Muslim has warned an act of terrorism on home soil is possible - and it will be the fault of the Australian government.

MUSLIMS "have an obligation" to target Australian troops in Afghanistan…” Islamic Swine declares at Hizb ut-Tahrir’s ASSASSINS Conference at Lidcombe, in Sydney’s no go zone aka.“Occupied Territories”

Hizb ut-Tahrir spokesman Uthman Badar distributed a dossier accusing the government's counter-terrorism laws of unfairly targeting the Muslim community.

He also claimed the government was deliberately trying to antagonise Muslims into reacting violently.

"An act of violence or terrorism is possible by someone who can't be controlled," Badar said yesterday.

"These laws and the surveillance tactics of ASIO and counter-counter terrorism police is begging for a reaction from disenfranchised Muslims. The government should be warned."

Federal Attorney-General George Brandis last night said there would be an investigation into the disturbing comments that were made ahead of the group's annual conference on Sunday at Lidcombe.

"Australia has strong laws against urging violence and inciting terrorism and any accusation of this will be investigated," Senator Brandis said.

Hizb ut-Tahrir is known around the globe as a "prescribed terrorist" group and is banned in Germany and in many Middle East countries.

On Anzac Day eve last year, Hizb ut-Tahrir outraged many Australians with the headline "Anzac Day is not for Muslims" on its website.

It attacked the soldiers who fought at Gallipoli, saying it was a military failure and said Australians were responsible for indiscretions such as burning the belongings of locals in Egypt, brawling, getting drunk and rioting, and contracting venereal diseases due to time spent in local brothels.

Mr Badar came to Australia when he was three and grew up in western Sydney.

He is currently doing a PHD in economics at Sydney University. He said his group was not concerned about a vow by Prime Minister Tony Abbott when in opposition that the movement would be outlawed once he got into power.

"He was just playing to the electorate and we are not worried," Mr Badar said.

The jailing of a number of Muslims, including those involved in a plot to blow up Holsworthy Army barracks, was again the fault of the government, he claimed.

One police source said Hizb ut-Tahrir "pushes the boundaries" in an attempt to appear relevant.

"Many members are educated young Australians, but their views are extreme and they have been banned in some places," the source said.

Muslims really are just,Cuckoo.
