Australia: More race hate from the political and mass media establishment

Not your ABC | 18.01.2007 07:22 | Analysis | Anti-racism | Repression | World

Big media switches over to super race hate campaigns again no doubt to cover up for John Howard, while he gets a buzz in Broome WA on holidays? Or is this what we're going to get until their big media and political establishment can once again shrug off their responsibilities and complicity in their wide spread lies and hate at home and their killing in Iraq, which includes torture, and rendition. Once again this is about what someone is alleged to have said, all ears open. But what about corruption who's going to deal with that? Hey Howard? What about you Dud? No not big media! If it's left up to big media all we're going to get is islamophobia because it suits them, is divisive and is a great way to cover-up for their lack of responsibility. Thanks!

All we're going to get is islamophobia
All we're going to get is islamophobia


What do I reckon, I reckon we should all become martyrs and send all the fat pigs to the Hague for their war crimes against humanity and complicity in those war crimes against humanity. At least they've done it and not alleged to have done so. As well as for their draconian laws locking up, renditioning and torture of innocent people for thought crimes.

Who are the pigs really? War criminal pigs who all should be blindfolded and sent to trial at the Hague war criminal court for their crimes against humanity.

Once that's done then we can line up the complicit Labour pigs and the complicit Murdoch, and ABC press pigs for some therapy too for lying to us, terrifying us, inciting violence against us and producing this garbage today again, instead of information that would allow us to asses corruption in public office which is ripe at the moment and has been for some 5 years now and needs serious scrutiny now!

But instead all we get is diversion tactics and division in the community to cover up for their ignorance and destruction of the very fabric of our society.

Sheikh's martyr, pig comments condemned

The Muslim community has moved to distance itself from comments made by a Sydney cleric calling for children to be encouraged to die as Muslim martyrs.

[But has anyone asked the John Howard government if it has distanced itself from the islamophobic propaganda by his big media and political establishment? A war criminal government who 'have killed' tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi children? No!]

The head of the Global Islam Youth Centre, Sheikh Feiz Mohammed, has also [alleged] to have] referred to Jewish people as "pigs", in a video of one of his lectures.

[I must admit though some Jewish people like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC sound very much like pigs if you ask me because of their pig attitude]

[But they wouldn't have any influence on our big media or political establishment over here would they now?]

The DVDs were reportedly found being sold by children outside a mosque in Britain.

[But pig media sell their propaganda to our kids in the papers, on TV and in the main scream media every day of the week]

Islamic Friendship Association spokesman Kaysar Trad says the comments do not reflect the sentiments of the wider Muslim community.

"As a community, it is quite disconcerting for us that these comments are found from time to time and they're broadcast all over the news," he said.

"They certainly give the public an erroneous impression about Islam and Muslims."

Acting Attorney-General Kevin Andrews has condemned Sheikh Mohammed's comments.

"The importation of hatred in Australia is unacceptable," he said.

"It's offensive to the Australian people, it's reprehensible.

[But the killing of 655,000 innocent men, women and children in Iraq is okay?] But the torture and rendition of Australian citizens is okay, but keeping David Hicks in Guantanamo Bay for 5 years without charge or trial is okay?] But draconian laws are okay? But 20 years for thought crimes is okay? But encouraging the jury to push on to find Faheem Khalid Lodhi guilty is okay?] Why is that?]

Andrews: "It's particularly outrageous that certain groups in Australia, such as the Jewish community, have been highlighted in these comments, and we condemn the comments."

[But Jews have nothing to do with highlighting these comments or complaints about someone they believe is anti Semitic?] Most likely Rupert Murdoch is not even a Jew?] Huh!]

=======================================

Rudd says Sheikh's comments incite terrorism

[But what is the difference between the real holocausts in Iraq and someone who is alleged to have incited terrorism by big right wing media propagandists?] Plenty!]

[One party Liberal is already guilty and the opposition Labor party is already complicit] Huh!]

The Federal Opposition is calling on the Government to take action against a Sydney cleric for encouraging Muslim children to die as martyrs.

[But not to take any action against war criminal John Howard and his cronies? Or to take any action against Labor's complicity in those war crimes against humanity, amongst many others even at home that were and are being committed now? Why is that?] Huh!]

The head of the Global Islam Youth Centre, Sheikh Feiz Mohammed, also referred to Jewish people as pigs in a video of one his lectures.

[Some of them are pigs no doubt even worse than pigs, pig dog criminals to be precise, in my humble opinion] When you take into account their criminal acts.]

The DVDs were reportedly being sold by children outside a mosque in Britain.

The Muslim community has distanced itself from the comments.

Opposition Leader Kevin Rudd says the comments are obscene and wants the Government to act.

"The Attorney-General should now be examining what action can be taken under Australian law against Sheikh Mohammed," he said.

[But no one is taking any action or examining the lies, propaganda, rendition, torture and criminal acts including draconian laws at home by, not just the John Howard government but complicit Labor and big media establishment] Why is that?] Huh!]

Rudd: "As I see it, Sheikh's Mohammed's statements add up to an incitement to terrorism."

[Alleged incitement to terrorism? Here we go again what is the difference between acts of terrorism committed and those alleged? What is the difference between complicity to war crimes by Labor and the political media establishment? And alleged incitement?]

Sydney's Muslim leaders are concerned comments made by the Liverpool cleric will tarnish the wider Muslim community.

[But not tarnish the Howard government war crimes and complicit Labor party and entire political and media establishment at home here in Australia and abroad for their illegal and degrading war crimes and complicity?] Huh!]

Islamic Friendship Association spokesman Kaysar Trad says he is doubtful the Sheikh's comments will radicalise young people, but he is concerned it will reflect badly on the rest of the Muslim community.

"Jihad means different things to different people but these type of comments do unfortunately create a misunderstanding," he said.

"It's best to talk to the person himself and unfortunately I understand he's not in Australia."

But what is worse an alleged incitement to terrorism or terrorism itself? Far better to chase down those war criminals who are guilty and have committed and who are committing terrorism now, than to speculate on what someone has alleged to have incited overseas and something not yet proven obviously raised by the Jews as anti-Semitic.

Sheik's comments spur calls to Immigration Dept?

Now it's alleged that the Sheik Taj el-Din Al Hilali comments spurred calls to the Immigration Department? What was the point of the pr exercise if people weren't going to call her? Why does she distance herself from her government and political media establishment's xenophobic pr campaigns?

Man refused bail over rocket launcher charges, discrepancies?

Peter Debnam is also a 'chip off' the old neo-liberal rocket launcher 'war criminal', block, John Howard, who has a very good reason to hype up and generate fear in the community for an illegal and degrading war in Iraq. Sinister?

Australian media seizes upon Muslim cleric’s comments to whip up xenophobia

There is now an inescapable necessity for all those opposed to militarism and war, and committed to the defence of democratic rights, to develop an independent political opposition to the xenophobic campaign being directed against Muslims. No faction of the media or political establishment has any opposition to the drive to militarise society under the banner of “Australian values”, and all are complicit in the cultivation of anti-Muslim communalism.

debnam has got to go!

The New South Wales Flopposition Leader, peter debnam, says an anti-American statement made by Sydney cleric Sheikh Taj el-Din Al Hilaly was a virtual declaration of war on Western society. So debnam actually thinks war crimes against humanity and the death of 665,000 Iraqi men, women and children for democracy is a fair argument? Sack him before it's too late, please!

Homegrown war criminal's 'a serious problem in Australia'

Jump, scream, run and hide the muswims are coming to get you! Everywhere I turn there is another terrorist. I opened the sugar bowl this morning and there was a terrorist cockroach just waiting to get me, after stealing my sugar mind you. So we must be very alert and very alarmed. How else would a war criminal get re-elected after a holocaust and what looks like a third interest rate rise this year? Mostly, Howard's goals can only be attained, amongst other things, if he pushes race hate buttons and whilst you continue to live in fear.

Latest campaign to demonise Islam and intimidate the Muslim Community

“The public furore ignited in response to the reported comments made by Sheik Taj Al-Din Al-Hilali has little to do with the question of crime or culpability. What is clear is that a consistently negative view of Islam and Muslims is being generated in this country with the aim of demonising Islam and silencing the Muslim community.”
