Warning to all Muslims the world over seeking asylum and protection from the manifestations of their faith.
Do not under any circumstances come to Australia, for we are a Nation founded upon Judeo Christian Law and principles and as such Australia is an anathema to any follower of the Paedophile Slave Trader Mohammad's cult of Islam.
There is no ideology more hated and despised in Australia than Islam.You simply would not like it here.

When those sworn to destroy you,Communism, Socialism,"Change you can Believe in" via their rabid salivating Mongrel Dog,Islam,take away your humanity, your God given Sanctity of Life, Created in His Image , If you are lucky this prayer is maybe all you have left, If you believe in God and his Son,Jesus Christ, then you are, despite the evils that may befall you are better off than most.

Lord, I come before You with a heavy heart. I feel so much and yet sometimes I feel nothing at all. I don't know where to turn, who to talk to, or how to deal with the things going on in my life. You see everything, Lord. You know everything, Lord. Yet when I seek you it is so hard to feel You here with me. Lord, help me through this. I don't see any other way to get out of this. There is no light at the end of my tunnel, yet everyone says You can show it to me. Lord, help me find that light. Let it be Your light. Give me someone to help. Let me feel You with me. Lord, let me see what You provide and see an alternative to taking my life. Let me feel Your blessings and comfort. Amen.

"The chief weapon in the quiver of all Islamist expansionist movements, is the absolute necessity to keep victims largely unaware of the actual theology plotting their demise. To complete this deception, a large body of ‘moderates’ continue to spew such ridiculous claims as “Islam means Peace” thereby keeping non-Muslims from actually reading the Qur’an, the Sira, the Hadith, or actually looking into the past 1400 years of history. Islamists also deny or dismiss the concept of ‘abrogation’, which is the universal intra-Islamic method of replacing slightly more tolerable aspects of the religion in favor of more violent demands for Muslims to slay and subdue infidels"

Wheelchair woman in sickening sex attack
Daily Telegraph
August 19, 2010 6:21AM
POLICE are appealing for a couple that helped a wheelchair-bound woman who was attacked by a group of males and allegedly sexually assaulted in Sydney’s north west last week, to come forward.
About 8.30pm on Thursday 12 August the wheelchair-bound woman was travelling south along Devlin Street, Ryde, after being at a nearby shopping centre.
The 39-year-old woman was on her way to a bus shelter to return home when she was approached by four males.
One of the males allegedly wheeled the woman up a ramp near the bus stop and into a car park in Church Street. The group then allegedly lifted the woman from her wheelchair and threw her to the ground before one of the males struck her to the head and sexually assaulted her.
At this time a man and a woman appeared in the car park before the group fled the scene.
The first male is described as Middle Eastern/Mediterranean in appearance, aged in his early 20s, 170cm tall, with a chubby build, clean shaven chubby face and short wavy black hair. He was wearing jeans, a T-shirt and a black hooded jacket.
The second male is described as Middle Eastern/Mediterranean in appearance, aged in his early 20s, 175-180cm tall, thin build with black hair and no facial hair. He was wearing a white or grey cap, joggers and a tracksuit.
The third male is described as Middle Eastern/Mediterranean in appearance, aged in his early 20s and average build.
The fourth male is described as Asian in appearance, aged in his early 20s, 170cm tall with a thin build.
The couple allegedly called police and later drove the woman home. Investigators are appealing for the man and woman, described as being Indian Sub-Continental in appearance, to contact police immediately.
Investigators are also appealing to anyone else with information about the incident or the group to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Labor comes clean with contempt for Australian Military



Former Labor Party Leader, Mark Latham, comes clean with the Australian public regarding his and Labor's contempt for Australia's Military forces.
The Australian Labor Party (ALP)and its Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU)bankers and financiers have a long tradition of hatred for and undermining of Australia's military forces during WW2, however this hatred and contempt was most publicly displayed  during the Vietnam War during which the ALP & ACTU financially supported the Communist North Vietnamese army, along with withholding weapons and supplies from Australian troops via the ACTU'S Maritime, Building and Postal Unions.
No one will ever know how many Australian troops were killed with weapons and supplies donated by the ALP / ACTU and their  "Peace  Movement" Groupies and ‘Students” however these Labor Party vermin are still allowed to walk on hallowed ground every ANZAC Day weeping crocodile tears courtesy of an Onion hidden in their handkerchief's.

The Communist / Socialist mindset is not burdened by conscience, because to be a Communist / Socialist you must first jettison your conscience otherwise the Communist / Socialist manifesto, is, just like the Koran, repulsive to all but the lowest of the low.

You gotta love this Rudd  / Gillard Socialist Labor Government, import into Australia as many illegal asylum seekers as you can via their open borders policy, then throw Australian soldiers families out of their Defense Service homes so the illegal’s can occupy them.
It’s bad enough that civilian Australians in need of housing are told live in cardboard boxes,rat holes or abandoned cars without telling our ADF families to do the same.

ALP website edits out Julia's socialist past
Matthew Franklin From:
The Australian
August 05, 2010
THE Labor Party has been caught posting an incomplete transcript of a recent Julia Gillard interview on her official website.
It excised its references to her youthful involvement in the Socialist Forum.
The party also excluded from its official record criticism of the Prime Minister's proposal for a citizens' assembly to seek a consensus on climate change policy, along with questions over whether Labor had made deals with the Greens in return for electoral preferences.
The Australian has established that a transcript on Labor's website purporting to reflect an interview the Prime Minister gave on Sydney's 2GB on July 27 excludes several minutes of the interview, the equivalent of seven pages worth of transcript.
The excised sections of the interview with Alan Jones include an exchange about how Ms Gillard worked as a typist for the Socialist Forum in 1998 as well as Jones, an outspoken right-winger, savaging Ms Gillard's position on mining tax and climate change.
A Labor campaign spokesman said last night the omission -- the exclusion of a single chunk of about a third of the interview -- was the result of an oversight in the transcribing process. "It has now been fixed and replaced on the website," the spokesman said.
During the excised section of the interview, Jones asked about Ms Gillard's acknowledged involvement in the Socialist Forum, which he described as having been "formed from the old Communist Party". Jones said Ms Gillard had said in a radio interview three years ago she had been involved with the forum "more than 20 years ago" while the Parliamentary Register of Interests said she had been involved between 1998 and 2002. He also said a 1994 flyer for a Socialist Forum event described her as a member of its management committee.
It was at this point that Labor's transcript resumed. It correctly records Ms Gillard as saying she worked for the organisation at university and retained involvement when it merged with the Fabian Society.
Ms Gillard described Jones's questions as "a load of old cobblers" and strongly defended her record on national security, rejecting the relevance of her university activities to the current election campaign.
The transcript on the Labor website also excluded an exchange in which Jones referred to criticism of the proposed citizens' assembly.
It also excluded Jones's questioning Ms Gillard on whether Labor's preference deal with the Greens came with behind-the-scenes agreements on climate change policy. The Prime Minister insisted she had made no policy deals with the Greens.
Labor Party sources said last night the error was inadvertent; political operators knew that any attempt to doctor transcripts would inevitably be detected.
"If it had been doctored specific passages would have been excluded. But this was one chunk and it was just left out in error," one source said.

Four men get life in jail for murdering UK couple in bungled 'honour killings'

Daily Telegraph
August 03, 2010 11:41PM

FOUR men who set fire to the wrong house in an attempted honour killing have been sentenced to life in prison after they were convicted of murdering a couple in northwestern England.

The men, who intended to torch the house of a man who was having an affair with the sister of one of the arsonists, targeted the wrong address in Blackburn and killed a married couple, Sky News reported.

Abdullah Mohammed, 41 and his wife Aysha, 39, were overcome by smoke in their home and died later in the hospital. They are survived by their three children aged nine, 14 and 19.

Preston Crown Court judge Justice Henriques said it was "nearly impossible to imagine a worse case of arson than this. You have wreaked devastation on a blameless, devout family."

Justice Henriques added: "It is a most cruel irony that two such devout members of the community, both deeply religious, should have lost their lives to such a perverted and wicked act."

Three of the men drove from their homes in east London. Habib Iqbal, 25, Sadek Miah, 23, and Mohammed Miah [no relation], 19, were recruited by Hisamuddin Ibrahim, 21.

Ibrahim was jailed for a minimum of 28 years. His accomplices were handed sentences between 19 and 25 years in prison.

Ibrahim was said to be enraged that his sister, Hafija Gorji, was divorcing her husband and had begun an affair.

It was said Ibrahim wanted to punish her lover on behalf of his family - but the arsonists poured petrol into the wrong house as the Mohammeds were asleep.

CCTV footage showed a car belonging to Sadek Miah’s mother in the area early in the morning. Three figures got out with a container. The attack was not filmed but the men returned to the car and drove off without headlights.

Does Killing the wrong people still count for regaining their honour? or diy they still have to burn to death their original intended victims? maybe they get a sort of partial Honour credit, like a partial deposit into their honour account at  allah's Honour bank.

Witness wants to hide her face behind burqa during Islamic school fraud trial

The Daily Telegraph
August 04, 2010 12:00AM

23 6 2010 Burka Ban Fred Nile A JUDGE is set to decide this week whether a Muslim woman can wear a full burqa while giving evidence before a jury in a fraud case.

West Australian District Court Judge Shauna Deane is due to hear submissions tomorrow from lawyers for the prosecution and defence regarding the witness, who wishes to wear the burqa.

The woman is a strict Muslim who does not want to show her face to men. Defence lawyers raised concerns about how the jury could read the woman's expressions if they cannot see her face.

The jury in the case was discharged yesterday after the estimated time for the fraud trial of a Muslim college director blew out from 10 days to five weeks.

After the jury was discharged, defence lawyer Mark Trowell said a jury would not be able to "make a proper assessment" of the witness if they could not see her face.

He said it was believed to be the first time in Australia that a witness had wanted to wear a full burqa.

Anwar Sayed has been charged with fraudulently obtaining $1.125 million from the state and federal governments by falsifying the number of students at the Muslim Ladies College of Australia in Perth's south.

To think the good judge has to take time out to consider this absurd request from this arse clown.

World first surf centre for NSW

By Tony Bartlett
Daily Telegraph
July 31, 2010

THE world's first dedicated national training centre for elite surfers and coaches is to be built on the far north coast of NSW.

The multi-million dollar facility, to be built by Surfing Australia, was launched on Saturday at Casuarina by a host of past and present world surfing champions, and federal

Minister for Sport Kate Ellis.

Kate Ellis Stilletos

Labor’s “Style Queen” “Fashion Icon” and “Female body Image Expert” / custodian, Kate Ellis.

Surfing Australia boss Andrew Stark says the $2 million national surf training centre, which will support the development of more than 3000 elite surfers and coaches each year, will consolidate Australia's place as a world leader in the sport.

"It will provide something no other country's got, and that's a dedicated high-performance facility," he said.

"It's not just about the physical structure of the facility. It's also about the new levels of sport science and coaching that we're going to bring in, to enable all the up and coming juniors and the current superstars of our sport to really take advantage of the system.

"The world's best surfers will have the opportunity to come to a centre that's specifically designed for their training needs."

Surfing Australia will involve two-time world champion Mick Fanning and world number two Joel Parkinson in the design details of the building and consult them on specific requirements.

"We want to make sure that the likes of Mick and Joel have a training environment that suits the needs of the world's top-end surfers, who are going to have something tailor made for what they're trying to  achieve ... the long-term vision is to continue to produce world champions," Mr Stark said.

Parkinson believes the centre will not only give youngsters with exceptional talent everything they could dream of, but also hone the skills of elite surfers.

"It'll be somewhere we'll be able to fine-tune our abilities in and out of the ocean with training, the mechanics of surfing, and how you apply all that to the water," he said.

"When I injured my ankle last year I went to a rehab facility in France where I learned some of the most amazing advances in their sports, and to be able to apply some of those to surfing would be awesome.

"This centre will not only keep Australian surfing at the top, but international surfing as well - I think Australia is seen as the most successful surfing country in the world, and we want to keep it that way."

I cannot wait to read that the Australian Labor Party makes it compulsory that men and women must use a gender neutral surf board, aka. the 80’s fiasco of the Taxpayer funds, some $6,000 +  given to a female surf board manufacturer who was designing a surfboard for  Labor’s “Wimmin”

Male or Female you can either SURF or NOT , No amount of Socialized  politically correct interference will make any Australian man or “wimmin” a World Champion surf board rider.

Maybe Athletics and swimming will be next, where everyone / person will WIN regardless of their time.. the perfect world!!!!

English council bans staff from wearing mini-skirts


Daily Telegraph
July 31, 2010 1:54AM


A COUNCIL has warned female employees they could be sent home if their skirts are too short.


A memo sent by bosses at Southampton City Council, in southern England, has instructed the council's 400 staff to dress appropriately for work, The Daily Mail reports.


Social workers, youth workers and other employees in the council's children's services department were told to "carefully consider their work attire".


Women were advised to wear trousers or skirts of "reasonable length" - "not mini-skirts".


The leaked email said that council bosses would in the coming weeks "be speaking to staff about the clothes they wear to work.


It adds: "Please try to dress smartly and thoughtfully, in line with other professionals you come across in your day-to-day work, and in a way that shows respect to children and families."


Staff are said to be outraged by the email. The council's union secretary Mike Tucker told The Dail Mail: "I would have thought the council has got better things to do than impose a regimented approach to what people wear."


Yes I know there is no mention of Sharia or Islam in this story, no mention of who is offended by the chosen dress code of English women employed in the UK Public Service.
Now lets see, Is it the Irish, the Scottish , the UK Catholic's, the UK Protestants, perhaps its the Welsh who are offended by the wearing of mini skirts by Female Public / Social Security staff, yes I guess these formentioned groups have been simmering away now for 60years or so, resenting 24/7 the attire of the female staff that delivered into their social security account their FREE RIDE.


Ok Ok lets get real here, we all know who is responsible for this demand of a Dress Restriction to be imposed upon those who are employed to hand out various Tax Payer funded Christian CHARITY to those who choose not to work,


Dare I say it? MUSLIM PARASITES ..... There ya go I said IT  why wont YOU ?

More women becoming virgins again with hymen replacement operations on the NHS
By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

The half hour hymenoplasty procedure can cost up to £4,000 to be done privately
Increasing numbers of women are having taxpayer-funded ‘virginity repair’ operations before marriage.
There were 116 hymen replacement operations carried out on the NHS between 2005 and 2009. The total for 2009 was 30, up 25 per cent from 24 in 2005.

 
Why are Muslim Women availing themselves of this corrective surgery known as Hymenoplasty?
 





"I think that death is better than them finding out I am not a Virgin"
& Jodi Bieber obviously has never had her nose and ears cut off.

The health service figures, which do not include data on the religion or marital status of the individuals, seem to echo a trend reported by private clinics, which are seeing a huge surge in demand for the procedure from Muslim women paying up to £4,000.
One Harley Street clinic said that demand for its half-hour procedure had tripled in recent months.
Doctors say patients are under pressure from future husbands or relatives who insist that they should be virgins on their wedding night.
Critics, including moderate Muslim groups, have condemned the trend as a sign of the spread of Islamic fundamentalism in the West.
During the hymenoplasty procedure – viewed by some as invasive and degrading – the hymen is stitched or reconstructed so that it will tear again and bleed on the woman’s wedding night.
In some cases, the vaginal lining can be used to create a false hymen. A blood capsule can then be inserted into the lining to ensure realistic blood flow when the membrane is broken.
Consultant gynaecologist Dr Magdy Hend performs hymenoplasty under local anaesthetic at his Regency Clinic on Harley Street. He charges £1,850 for the half-hour procedure and says that most of his clients are Muslim women.
He said: ‘In the past, we would do one or two hymen reconstruction operations a week. Sometimes now, we get two or three women a day. Demand has tripled.
‘Our Muslim clients worry about having had sex, and their fiance and family knowing that they have been touched before.
‘It is more cultural rather than religious. If the bride is not a virgin and does not bleed on the wedding night, it is a big shame on the family. There have been honour killings in extreme cases.
Enlarge 
‘It is simple surgery that takes only half an hour. They can have it done at lunchtime and do not have to give their real names and addresses.’
Imam Dr Taj Hargey, chairman of the Muslim Educational Centre in Oxford, called on the Muslim community to try to reverse the trend.
He said: ‘The situation is very common in the Middle East where there is a huge scandal that can lead to divorce or even honour killings if there are not bloodstained bed sheets after the wedding night.
‘It is very disappointing that Muslim women in this country feel they need to lead a double life, resorting to subterfuge surgery.
‘That is not conducive to either their psychological or spiritual health and it is hypocrisy and double standards because Muslim men are doing as they please with women.’
There have been calls for a ban on NHS surgeons carrying out the operations for women wanting to marry as virgins.
But a Department of Health spokesman insisted that hymen repair operations take place on the NHS only to ensure a patient’s physical or psychological health.
She said: ‘The NHS does not fund hymen repair operations for cultural reasons. All operations on the NHS are on the basis of clinical need.
‘Operations to repair the hymen are only carried out exceptionally to secure physical or psychological health.’

Australia:Ignoble Islam… another example of why this nightmare, is incompatible with civilization.

 

Couple kept sham marriage to stop violent reprisals

SMH
July 31, 2010


Centrelink unwittingly revealed a clash between Islamic laws and Western life, writes Bellinda Kontominas.

TO THE people in their ethnic community, the man and his wife showed all the hallmarks of a happy and loving marriage.

But it was all a lie. The sad reality of being caught between Eastern culture and Western values, they told a court.

The man, a professional in his home country, had converted to Islam in order for the couple's marriage to be legally recognised. But when they separated after moving to Australia, they maintained the outward appearance of a married couple to avoid physical harm, or even death, at the hands of Islamic extremists back home, they claimed.

The pair told of their clandestine double life at a District Court trial in which the husband was charged with lying to Centrelink by claiming he was single in order to obtain a Newstart allowance.

The two cannot be named after the District Court Judge Stephen Norrish made a non-publication order preventing their identification to avoid harm to them and their family overseas.

''It is feared that if there be publicity in relation to this matter and it gets back to [their home country], then people will die,'' he said.

For this reason, the Herald has omitted details about the couple to maintain their anonymity.

The Crown alleged the couple had never separated and were still mostly living together during the more than five years the husband had fraudulently obtained benefits. But the jury saw differently, acquitting the man of seven charges against him.

The jury was not told he had pleaded guilty to another charge of dishonestly obtaining about $12,000 in unemployment benefits while he was working.

During the trial a former colleague told the court he believed the man was single as there were no shoes kept at the front door.

Another former colleague said he had been untidy and unkempt, which gave the outward appearance he was unmarried. She had felt sorry for him and felt he needed a woman's touch, so she attempted to set him up with a friend during a dinner at her home. A blind date was organised but did not eventuate.

Under Islamic law, marriage between a Muslim woman and a non-Muslim man is not legally recognised and would be considered an adulterous relationship.

Such a union is usually considered proper and legal if a religious conversion takes place.

An Islamic law expert who gave evidence in the trial told the Herald that separation or divorce, particularly by those who have married in controversial circumstances would result in questions about the legitimacy of the initial conversation. The academic, whom the Herald has chosen not to name, said this could bring shame to the couple's family and result in violence towards them by members of the community.

Often when couples marry under controversial circumstances, such as a religious conversion or without family blessing, the end of that relationship can reignite bad feelings about the match, leading to violence, the academic said.

''[The separation] could have been perceived as proof that these sort of relationships don't work or it could be perceived as additional harm to the family name, reopening old wounds.''

Dr Shakira Hussein, who also gave evidence in the trial, told the Herald there could be ramifications for the couple and their family if he was seen to have abandoned the religion.

An expert in Islamic studies at the University of Melbourne, Dr Hussein said religious minorities in Islamic countries were particularly vulnerable to accusations of blasphemy by neighbours or family members holding grudges.

For this reason, many mixed-marriage couples maintain a happy front. ''In Australia, too, it is considered not good conduct to be too open about marriage break-ups,'' Dr Hussein said.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali “Christianity can combat the rise of conservative Islam”

 

Christianity can combat conservative Islam threat

By Heather Tyler From:
The Daily Telegraph
July 30, 2010

AYAAN HirCopy of 30 7 2010 Christianity can combat conservative Islam threatsi Ali is shivering in the teal, wool coat that envelopes her on this wet winter day in Sydney.

She looks bird-like. But behind the fragile-looking exterior is a steely mind that has earned her the distinction of being one of the world's most controversial writers, feminists and activists.

Somali-born Muslim Hirsi Ali was a refugee turned Dutch MP when she helped make Submission, the anti-Islamic short film that led to the assassination of its maker, Theo Van Gogh, in 2004.

Ali received death threats, exacerbated by her public rejection of Islam. Since then she has had bodyguards 24/7. Even in Sydney, plain-clothes police shadow her every move.

Hirsi Ali was eight when her family left Somalia. She was granted asylum in The Netherlands in 1992, after she ran away from an impending arranged marriage. She now lives in the US.

Hirsi Ali emphatically rejects calls in Australia to allow a limited form of female circumcision. The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists has discussed backing "ritual nicks", a modified form of genital mutilation.

University of Newcastle's professor of perinatal and infant psychiatry Dr Louise Newman said some doctors had been approached to perform the procedure.

Hirsi Ali, herself a victim of genital mutilation, says girls who underwent a ritual nick in hospital would probably be subjected to the more radical form anyway.

"Most parents who believe in female circumcision believe in the full form," she says. "I can understand where the Australian doctors are coming from, but it's wrong."

Hirsi Ali favours a strict detection system, where girls at risk are medically examined every 12 months to make sure they haven't been mutilated. She advocates severe penalties for parents who try to force their daughters into mutilation.

"An annual check that takes two minutes is far less traumatic than the alternative," she says. "Educating parents against the practice is also key."

Hirsi Ali has written several memoirs: Infidel, The Caged Virgin and the most recent, Nomad, in which she recounts her life after breaking with her family, her religion and how she struggled to be educated and assimilate into Western society.

"I had to learn to question, to fight for my rights and not to submit to everything bad that could happen to me," she says.

Hirsi Ali urges the West to help Muslim immigrants integrate and overcome the temptation of fundamental Islam.

"It's not parents putting children and vulnerable young people in ghettos, but fundamentalists who want them isolated from society.

"Fundamentalists do not want integration," she says." They teach young people that democracy, free thinking, is bad."

Hirsi Ali is now an atheist, and counts British atheist campaigner Richard Dawkins as a close friend.

But she believes Christianity can combat the rise of conservative Islam.

"Churches should do all in their power to win this battle for the souls of humans in search of a compassionate God, who now find that a fierce Allah is closer to hand," she writes in Nomad.
