Yesterday it was demands from Muslims to legalise polygamy. What’s next? This?

More here.

I suppose this is what Muslims mean when they claim that Islam respects women.

MEMBERS of Australia’s Islamic community believe polygamous marriages should be recognised to protect the rights of women.

Sheikh Khalil Chami of the Islamic Welfare Centre in Sydney’s Lakemba today said polygamous marriages, although illegal, existed in Australia and should be recognised.

How sweet, they’re just concerned about women.
His argument is that because they already exist they should be recognised? No, because they are illegal, the people involved should be charged and prosecuted.
Islamic Friendship Association of Australia president Keysar Trad

once proposed to another woman with the consent of his wife, Hanefa, but the second marriage did not proceed.

“I certainly would not have entertained the thought of having a relationship without a religious marriage and I thought the relationship with that person was developing to the stage where we had become too friendly with each other,” he told the program.

For some reason the marriage didn’t proceed, maybe the woman turned him down. What this statement does show is that Trad wanted to become a polygamist, showing the contempt he has for the laws of Australia.
I suppose seeings how it’s acceptable for him to take a second wife, it will be OK with him when Hanefa announces her plans to take a second husband?
It’s insidious the way Muslims gradually change Western countries into Islamic hellholes. What’s next?

Well the Saudi’s must have been shaking in their boots when they heard the leader of the world, oops i mean Australia, big tough prissy lips Rudd threaten that a “blowtorch” needed to be applied to OPEC
Off went scary Martin Ferguson on a mission.
Where he failed dismally.

There was also no sign that Federal Energy Minister Martin Ferguson brought the “blowtorch” which Prime Minister Kevin Rudd recently said should be applied the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

In his speech to the meeting, Mr Ferguson praised Saudi Arabia for helping stabilise the oil market and prevent damage to the global economy.

He called for more investment in oil production, a more transparent market and for developing countries to cut their subsidised fuel programs.

But nowhere was there a call for OPEC to boost its oil production.

Fergusons smooth response when questioned about his missing blowtorch was almost poetic in it’s eloquence

“Australia, like the global community, has sat down today and had a hard think about how we actually assist not only ordinary motorists in Australia but also developing countries to meet the challenge of increases in oil prices,” he said.

And what did the Saudi’s do?

Once more Saudi Arabia told distressed oil consumers to drop dead this past weekend.

US president Bush has urged Congress to lift the legislative ban on exploration on America’s Outer Continental Shelf.

As the nation’s gas prices skyrocketed again this week — in some places up to $4.30/gallon — Democrats’ opposition to in-country drilling faces heavy criticism.

Bush said his administration has “repeatedly called on Congress to expand domestic oil production” but “Democrats on Capitol Hill have rejected virtually every proposal.”

Offshore drilling, banned under a 1981 federal moratorium, could produce years of sufficient oil production. But the practice is frowned on by environmentalists even though recent technological advances make it possible to drill without harming the natural environments.

“With these advances — and a dramatic increase in oil prices — congressional restrictions on OCS exploration have become outdated and counterproductive,” said Bush.

Republicans in Congress have put forth several measures to lift the legislative ban on exploration but they need Democratic support to move forward.

Aside form the OCS regions, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) holds millions of barrels of oil just waiting to be brought to market but Bill Clinton vetoed a 1995 bill that would have allowed production there. Since then, those in search of energy independence from dangerous foreign nations, have encouraged drilling in ANWR despite protests to keep the area “pristine.”

The 2,000 acres of oil availability in ANWR make up only .01% of the entire wilderness area but America could extract 10.4 billion barrels of oil if permitted. That amount equals about 20 years of imported crude oil from Saudi Arabia. Like the OCS drilling technologies, scientists have created techniques to avoid disrupting wildlife in the area.

Since Clinton vetoed this opportunity, Bush said the price of oil has “increased seven-fold and the price of gasoline has almost tripled.”

Bush also proposed tapping into oil shale, a rock that produces oil when exposed to heat. He spoke of a deposit in the Green River Basin in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming, where there are “about 800 billion barrels of recoverable oil.” That amount equals more than three times the “proven oil reserves of Saudi Arabia,” according to Bush.

Richard Danzig, who served as Navy Secretary under President Clinton and is tipped to become National Security Adviser in an Obama White House, told a major foreign policy conference in Washington that the future of US strategy in the war on terrorism should follow a lesson from the pages of Winnie the Pooh, which can be shortened to: if it is causing you too much pain, try something else.
Mr Danzig told the Centre for New American Security: “Winnie the Pooh seems to me to be a fundamental text on national security.”

Mr Danzig spelt out the need to change by reading a paragraph from chapter one of the children’s classic, which says: “Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump on the back of his head behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming down stairs. But sometimes he thinks there really is another way if only he could stop bumping a minute and think about it.

Checkout some of these
So, who does Edward bear represent. The militant Islamists? Which means all Obama has to do is teach the jihadists that if theyd just stop hacking peoples heads off and blowing innocent people up for a minute, he would be able to teach them a better way of living. I’m sure that will go down really well coming from an apostate Muslim/ Christian.
Or does Edward bear represent the Americans? And what is the lesson to be learnt? Is it that nothing is worth fighting for if it causes pain? Appeasement and surrender could both be seen as ways of potentially reducing short term pain. Is that what Mr Danzig is endorsing?

Why do Muslims often insist that Islam respects women when clearly that is not the case?
Just this week a Saudi woman was arrested for driving.

The woman from Buraida north of Riyadh was stopped by a police patrol after driving 10 kilometres to collect her husband, Al-Hayat newspaper said.

The woman’s “legal guardian” - her husband - was required to sign a declaration that he would not allow her to drive again, it said. It was not immediately clear if she was released or would face legal action.

Last year number one hypocrytical fatarse Al Gore, who has become a very rich man thanks to his remarkable ability to scare the crap out of people, was labelled a hypocrite when it was discovered his electricity usage was twenty times the national average.

Mr Gore’s environmental activism inspired the Oscar-winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth. But the TCPR branded him a “hypocrite” in February last year after discovering that his eight-bathroom house had consumed nearly 221,000 kilowatt hours of electricity in the previous year - more than 20 times the national average.

Mr Gore responded by saying he was giving the house a energy-efficient makeover, fitting solar panels, low-energy lightbulbs and a geothermal heating and cooling system.

Can you believe he goes around the world, making enormous amounts of money telling the plebs how to live and he didn’t even bother putting low energy light globes in his own mansion until last year? and only after the Tennessee Centre for Policy Research caught him out.
Obviously old fatarse hasn’t put too much effort into reducing his carbon footprint because this year his electricity usage was even higher than last year, up another 10%.

On Wednesday night I watched Peter Faris’ show on channel 31. {great show] Peter was argung with two other lawyers about Megans law and the name them and shame them rally in Melbourne on 1 June.
OK I’m not a lawyer but it seems to me that it’s impossible to protect everyone in the community. So the choice is;
1. Protect innocent children and risk the pedophile becoming a victim of vigilantism.
2. Protect the pedophile and risk innocent children becoming victims of the pedophile.
The choice seems simple.
Lefty’s are very concerned about vigilantism. The risk is probably minute and reduced even further if the community feels that justice was served. In other words, if judges actually hand out appropriate jail sentences. The greatest threat to the pedophile or rapist is probably more likely to be harassment from the media.
Why do Government and the judiciary have the right to expose innocent people to violent and dangerous criminals without even warning them of the time bombs they’ve let loose in their neightbourhood?
Why are leftys so concerned about the rights of the criminals? So a pedophile or serial rapist has come to terms with the fact that society will shun and despise them. Too bad, how sad.
Why is it inevitably people from the left that choose to protect the rights of the guilty over the rights of the innocent?
They chose to protect the rights of William John Watkins over the rights of the Irwin sisters and the really disgusting thing is, if they had to do it all again it appears they would still choose to protect the rights of Watkins over the rights of Colleen and Laura Irwin and Colleen and Laura Irwin would still be raped and murdered. That is obscene!

More of those threats from the religion of peace. You know the ones that offer a bit of kindly advice with the implication that if you don’t obey then the consequences are your own fault.

Muslim extremism in Britain will grow unless the Government and society learn to understand Islam, Malaysia’s prime minister has warned.

Basically he crapped on about how Muslims become radicalised because they feel ignored rather than due to religious reasons, and it seems the way to make them feel appreciated is to introduce Shariah law.

“The failure to understand Muslims is driving a divide between the communities,” he said.

“Gordon Brown must encourage a better understanding because Britain must appreciate its Muslims.”

Our great leader Kevin Rudd was so pleased with himself, he, brilliant leader of the nation, announced that the Federal government was giving $35 million dollars of tax payers money to Toyota to manufacture Australia’s first hybrid car.
Premier of Victoria, John Brumby described the deal as a coup, and is believed to have matched the $35 million dollars of tax payers money with a further $35 million dollars of Victorian tax payers money, but is refusing to disclose the amount. [pardon me?]

Premier John Brumby says the deal is great news for Victoria and Australia.

“Great news for the industry, great news for motorists and it’s great news for the environment,” he said.

The Federal Government has given Toyota $35 million dollars in incentives, but Mr Brumby will not reveal how much his Government spent on financial contributions to secure the deal.

Actually it’s not a good deal for anyone except Toyota

CAR giant Toyota had already decided to make a hybrid version of its Camry sedan in Australia and did not need the $70 million of taxpayer-funded subsidies promised by the federal and Victorian governments yesterday.

Congratulations Kevin and John. What a coup!
