Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - 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, 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'.

'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 YOU accepted.'
 
Still, it appears there are some in Australian government with the courage to say what allot of us in other places are thinking. I've never understood why people would immigrate to a country only try to change it to be more like the country they left, or to live as they did in their home country. It used to be people immigrated to the United States to be Americans. Now it seems people immigrate only to take advantage of the U.S. We're to be tolerant of Muslims, but Christians aren't afforded the same tolerance. We can't speak of Mohamed, but Christ and any other Christian faith icon is fair game. We're to be tolerant of those who come here illegally or we're cast as anti-immigration, racist or "afraid" of those who are illegal. It's funny, every country I've been to signs in the airport are it two languages. They're in the native language and English. Here, English and Spanish, WTF? I was in a home improvement store the other day and had to look for the English signs, everything was in Spanish! We're expected to afford anyone in the world who happens to touch our soil the same rights and privileges of U.S. Citizens. The same rights and privileges we pay taxes for and have sacrificed, fought and died for, though most of these people have no interest in becoming a U.S. Citizen, and some would rather the U.S. ceased to exist all together.

I will tell you this. We as a people will be pushed only so far, then we will push back, and hard. Our elected "Leadership" here is about to find that out....


Thanks for the soapbox time, I'll go back to the garage now.... :)
