Prime Minister Julia Gillard - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques:
Quote:

'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT... Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture.Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.'

'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.'

'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!'

'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you,then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'

'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'

'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'

'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country that accepted you.'

First of all, the liar is not Australian Prime Minister for quite a long time already, her back stabbing cronies that help her into power back stabbed her and returned the power to the original PM.. not that anything improves after that.
Second, even if she was, she is too wishy washy to give a strong statement as the above.

Having said that, I do wish for a strong stance taken by out government.
At least that way I can decide how to react.
Sadly we are governed by spineless self serving waste of oxygen law makers.

So what was posted in the USA is not true?

This references a 2005 story which is marked partly true:

OK, so it's what somebody wants them to say and used a conglomeration of statements to achieve the desired end. I am not surprised as the statement is not consistent with what our governments want, which is confusion, terror, bewilderment and surrender for safety to government control. All hale Big Brother. I know I now fit into that scary conspiracy theorist category, but I'm OK with that because I'm calling it as I see it.

Your post says what many MANY Australia's feel and say between themselves, but because the citizens don't make the laws we can say what we like (and risk being charged). However, we can't bring about a mass deportation of the goat lovers (poor defenceless goats).

That's too bad, I was kinda hopeful that someone in your government had finally grown a pair and was actually going sane.

Sane?? Who?? As our fearless leader (read that "balless wonder") admits 10,000 potential terrorists of the first wave of 100,000? And we are letting him!?!

Sane based only on the question on the original post, and that is why I asked. Because sanity from our governments is as likely as sex every night with a virgin (not that I want a virgin, I prefer experience) after your 70 years old.

Not to mention "help"...

Ah yes, the voice of experience

Damn straight.
