CANBERRA: 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 crackdown. Treasurer Peter Costello 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 this 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 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 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 spies monitoring the nation's mosques.

Brake the law, do the time. Not a very difficult concept for most to understand. Cleric or garabage truck driver, brake the law and your history ... bye-bye! Just enforce the laws of the land, very much avoided today by all.

The Madison Avenue Public Relations arm of the Republican Party has done an effective brainwashing job of denigrating and damning the folks that were instrumental in bringing the 40 hour work week, child labor laws, voting rights for women, social security and much, much more. Neither the Far Left or the Far Right represent the mainstream of their respective parties. There is no shortage of kooks in either Party.

NOTE - Whatever party is out of power will whine, kick, scream and hold tantrums until they get to be the party that controls the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives. SOLUTION - vote EVERY incumbent out of office and watch the democracy we ache for to take hold. Until then, we certainly will be maintaining the best Congress that money can buy..... for themselves and their backroom cronies. wallbash.gif

Now when I say liberal, I am not saying anything about party. I am talking about the people who say we have to treat kiss everybodies ass. The criminals have far more rights than the victims. I am sick of people who think that everybody 'deserves' a second chance and the everybody can be 'fixed'. Guess what, some don't and some can't. icon_evil.gif
