March 17 - The Land "Down Under" Rises to the Top

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Law (Sharia Law) were told this week to leave Australia as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks. A day after a group of mainstream Muslim leaders met with Prime Minister Howard, he made it clear that extremists would face a crackdown.

Australia basically said that if Australian values do not suit their Muslim residents, would you kindly find the nearest exit door and hightail it out of the "land down under." Move to a country that accepts Islamic Law. Prime Minister Howard said that Australian spies would also be monitoring Australian mosques.

This is leadership with courage, that doesn't call Islam a "noble religion," and is just plain no nonsense. It doesn't welcome them to attend to their ports, rise to high political office, and likely doesn't bow to an American-based organization, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Perhaps they have no such deceitful organization in Australia and if so, pay them little attention rather than placating them. If Saudi Wahabbi theology is preached in Australian mosques, it will likely be shut down.
