Current Events - April 2007

Just wanted to send a great big Canadian hug and kiss Thank You for coming to the aid of our peacekeeping troops in Afghanistan. I just read your government is sending more troops to help keep the Taliban terrorists from regaining any more ground or power. If more NATO countries would grow some balls and step up to seriously fight these terrorists than maybe we could bring peace to the Afghan people. On behalf of our troops and their families back home I say thanks again.
My question is how do you feel about the lack of support from the other NATO countries in Afghanistan? and how do you think we could encourage them to help?

I am sooooo over talking about trivial prejudice. Prejudice is often confused with racism. I am not interested in talking about who gets away with what especially concerning isssues that are so controversial that a consensus is highly unlikely. I am tired of hollywood couples, e.g. Bradgelina, Jayonce . . . . I am sick of Rosie and the View, Britney Spears and I was sick of Imus/Rutgers before it started. How much attention is given to the real news nowadays and what does that say about the average American?

If you think they would then the Iranians should have a nuclear bomb too. Remember, MAD (mutually assured destruction) kept the peace between the USSR and the USA for more than 50 years.

I do. The media tries to spin it off as if it's a horrible thing, but they don't tell us about the positive side to it, because of their agenda!

There are many people in Iraq who welcome our presence, you know!

I LOVE MY COUNTRY

GOD BLESS AMERICA

More than 20 people have reported him but the statute of limitations prevent all but 3 from prosecuting him. A person cannot file charges after they reach the age of 28. Do you agree this is a totally insane law? What do you think the punishment should be for a convicted child molester?

It won't be terrorists. It won't be global warming. It won't be natural disasters. It will be superior beings from a distant galaxy with x10 the technology than Earth.

Tragedy always strikes us unexpectedly because we are so focused on what will happen next. What happens next is what was never expected.

Barack Obama wants to pull troops out by 3-31-08. I am in favor of doing so as long as the U.S. tightens security so we don't experience war on our soil. What have we gained from this war?

All from IMUS' racist comments. Imagine this... if you side with him that it was ok to say what he said due to FREEDOM of SPEECH, then how come Howard Stern was always attacked for what he said? You can hear Howard, but have to pay for it. So to have FREEDOM of SPEECH you need to pay for it. Is it really free? Stop and think about it for a second...

Islamic official seeks removal of mufti
Monday Apr 9 23:46 AEST
The Australian Federation of Islamic Councils' (AFIC) legal adviser says its controversial mufti should be removed by abolishing the position.

The federal government and opposition have called for Sheik Taj Aldin Alhilali to be sacked after his latest reported remarks calling on Muslims to back Iran's hardline regime.

The AFIC appointed Sheik Alhilali as mufti in 1989 and last year suspended his salary.

Last week, it said his future would be decided by the National Council of Imams by June.

But honorary legal adviser to the AFIC Haset Ali said his organisation should decide the cleric's fate.

"The federation was the organisation that appointed a mufti," Mr Ali told ABC TV.

"I believe that the federation has an obligation on it to bring that situation to a sensible end and say that there should be no mufti for Australia.

"I think he's placed himself and the community in an impossible position and if the man has any sort of dignity he will bow out now."

Mr Ali said Sheik Alhilali did not represent the thinking of the majority of Muslims in Australia.

"I certainly believe that he's taking us on the wrong path and I believe we have to speak up against that and I, as one of the leaders, am totally opposed to going down that track."

AFIC president Ikebal Patel called for a more cautious response.

"I would urge the greater Australian community to give the Australian Muslims time to sort through this issue," Mr Patel told ABC TV.

"We don't want to do this under the cloud of political pressure because that will not in any way help the greater Australian community in the long run."
