Prime Minister John Howard - 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.

A day after a group of mainstream Muslim leaders pledged loyalty to =
Australia and her Queen at a special meeting with Prime Minister John =
Howard, he and his Ministers made it clear that extremists would face a =
crackdown. Treasurer Peter Costello, seen as heir apparent to Howard, =
hinted that some radical clerics could be asked to leave the country if =
they did not accept that Australia was a secular state, and its laws =
were made by parliament. "If those are not your values, if you want a =
country which has Sharia law or a theocratic state, then Australia is =
not for you", he said on National Television

"I'd be saying to clerics who are teaching that there are two laws =
governing people in Australia : one the Australian law and another =
Islamic law that is false. If you can't agree with parliamentary law, =
independent courts, democracy, and would prefer Sharia law and have the =
opportunity to go to another country, which practices it, perhaps, then, =
that's a better option", Costello said.

Asked whether he meant radical clerics would be forced to leave, he said =
those with dual citizenship could possibly be asked to move to the other =
country. Education Minister Brendan Nelson later told reporters that =
Muslims who did not want to accept local values should "clear off. =
Basically people who don't want to be Australians, and who don't want, =
to live by Australian values and understand them, well then, they can =
basically clear off", he said.

Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by =
saying he 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."

"However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the =
'politically correct' crowd began complaining about the possibility that =
our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor =
do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming =
to Australia " "However, there are a few things that those who have =
recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to =
understand." "This idea of Australia being a multi-cultural community =
has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. And =
as Australians, we have our own culture, our own society, our own =
language and our own lifestyle."

"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."

"If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like "A Fair Go", then =
you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We =
are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really =
don't care how you did things where you came from. By all means, keep =
your culture, but do not force it on others.

"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 YOU accepted."

Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves, American citizens will =
find the backbone to start speaking and voicing the same truths.

FW: Something to more than just think about!

THIS IS A WARNING FOR US ALL
This is very interesting and just a bit scary. But is it scary enough to generate something besides talk?
I'm afraid far too many Catholics, Protestants, and Jews will wait until it hits them upside the head on a very
personal level before they will do something besides talk about it But by then it will be too late.

The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States, especially in the
minority races!!!

Allah or The Lord Jesus Christ? .. By Rick Mathes
Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their beliefs

I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video. After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.

When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked: 'Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of
the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?'

There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, 'Non-believers!'

I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?'

The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of 'a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.'

He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.'

I then stated, 'Well sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope Benedict commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Charles Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee
them a place in heaven!'

The Imam was speechless!

I continued, 'I also have problem with being your 'friend' when you and your brother clerics are telling
your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question. Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in orderfor you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?'

You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. Needless to say, the organizers
and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the Islamic Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.

In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. To elect the President! I think everyone in the U.S. . Should be required to read this, but with our liberal justice system, liberal media and the ACLU, there is
no way this will be widely publicized. The most puzzling thing to me is... Once Islam takes over, there will no longer be a liberal media or an ACLU, or a liberal justice system. So in effect, they are slitting their own
throats by not publicizing this.

If you will, please pass this on to youre-mail contacts. At least that is one thing we can all do.
Then no one can say they were not warned in time.

This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministry.

The man who walks with God always gets to his destination.
If you have a pulse you have a purpose.
