Thread: USA SHOULD FOLLOW AUSTRALIAN POLICY

My cousin emailed this article and I thought I would share it,,,

HOORAY FOR 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 at a special meeting with Prime Minister John Howard, he and his
ministers made it clear that extremists would face a crack-down.

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 the
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 out".

"Basically, people who don't want to be Australians, and they 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 monitoringthe nation's
mosques.

AMERICA and Canada..... ARE YOU LISTENING?

Australia- The Right to Leave Our Country - YOU Have the right.-.the right
to leave! After Sydney not wanting to offend other cultures by putting up
Xmas lights. After hearing that the State of South Australia changed its
opinion and let a Muslim woman have her picture on her driver's license with
her face covered.

This prompted this editorial written by an Australian citizen Published in
an Australian newspaper. 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 toour
country, and apparently some born here, need to understand. This idea of
Australia being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our
sovereignty and our national identity. 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", thenyou 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 Christianbeliefs, 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 herethen
LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.

Pretty easy really, when you think about it. I figure if we all keep
passing this to our friends (and enemies) it will also, sooner or later get
back to the complainers, lets all try, please.

Thank you!

Our government would never take this attitude because we are too busy worrying about how we would look in the eyes of other countries. Although I wish they would tell them all to go.
But as long as Bush and the likes of Kennedy, McCain, and others are in office, it will never happen.

The same thing is happing in the UK as it is here. To many illegals are trying to take over that country as well, and they need to tell them to get out.

All we are doing is taking in third world countries poverty,and they are behaving the same way when they come here. Having babies they can not afford, dropping out of school, with little to no skills which makes them dependent on us.

Can we have the Australian Government?

What I would not give to have our government stand up and say those very words and just substitute United States instead of Australia.

Maybe I should immigrate

Can we have the Australian Government?

Lets see do we ship their immigrants that will not assimilate and the do-gooders that support them, here? While we go there or visaversa? I'm getting to the point where an island sounds pretty nice.

Did any of you watch National Geographics program on the MS 13 last night? I did and it made me angry to see how these thugs are distroying communities all over our country with the violence and tagging. Places I grew up in Los Angeles I no longer recognize because the areas are so run down.

I'd be saying to clerics who are teaching that there are two
laws governing people in Australia, one the Australian law and another the
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.

Congress is telling us that there are "two laws governing people" in the United States -- one for citizens and one for illegal aliens

If the Southern Cross offends you, . . .thenyou should
seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.

didn't know they flew the Southern Cross in Australia, for a minute there it seemed like they were talking about Dixie

Mamie,

Look at you dragging me into this one.

Australia is absolutely right. They are facing the same thing we are!

They are already trying to mess around with Christmas.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! Leave me alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm an American!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dixie

Humm.....Well Australia is finally waking up. Countries Like Sweden, Switzerland, Scotland have the toughest laws in the world when it comes to Illegal Immigration as well as Immigration, this country should follow their lead!

Australia has always had a better immigration policy than the United States.

At least, in the modern era.

Better on guest-workers, better on asylum-seekers, and better on cumulative numbers in general.

Even now-when their immigration is much too liberal, and worse than it was twenty or thirty years ago-it is still light-years ahead of the United States.

I don't get the national geographic channel but I would have liked to see that show. I saw Howard Dean on tv today talking about the democratic party and how they are getting their act together. No mention of immigration crisis, they don't get it, they are not looking at the voter's and what is important to them.
