Yesterday morning in Miranda, Sydney, a man or woman dressed in a burqa robbed a man at gunpoint. Then, less then 24 hours later over in the UK a cross-dressing robber wearing a burqa and hijab tricked jewelers into opening their door, only for an armed gang to raid the store. The man, dressed in [...]
Currently one of the biggest pushes for banning the burqa revolves around the argument that those that wear a burqa cannot be spot identified. If you’re walking down the street in one nobody has any idea who you are. Even if the police stop you and they’re unlucky enough to be male they have to [...]
There’s been a bit of a push in Europe lately to ban the burqa. France’s deliberation on the ban has been the most vocal and discussed; FRANCE’S top administrative body has advised the government against slapping a complete ban on the full Islamic veil but says outlawing the burqa in some places was justified for [...]
In a recent Sunrise interview Pauline Hanson declared that she would not be selling her house to Asian’s living overseas. Australian’s of Asian background were ok but anyone who is Muslim need not apply. I’m not exactly certain of what happens if an Australian of Asian background who is Muslim applies, but I’m pretty sure [...]
On one side of Islam you have peaceful, patient and rational Muslims like Gad Amr. On the other, you have crazies like the people over at Revolution Muslim.

48 hours ago the Australian government announced it was suspending asylum applications for asylum seekers of Afghan and Sri Lankan descent. Obviously not happy that they’d be stuck in limbo for the next three to six months some Afghan and Sri Lankan asylum seekers, currently being detained in Sydney, have begun a hunger strike. The [...]
Whether you agree or disagree (or partially agree) with Geert Wilders, it’s hard not to acknowledge his controversial methodology for making headlines. Operating on the slippery slope between free speech and hate speech whilst I don’t agree with everything Wilders has ever said I do appreciate the man for speaking his mind. These days it’s [...]
Every so often in Australia we get some minority group spokesperson stand up and declare the current injustice of the day as the worst thing to ever happen to anyone. For the most part the general public listen, nod, pretend to care and then go back to their daily lives. Indians complain about getting bashed [...]
Apparently there’s a huge untapped market where muslims in Australia aren’t taking out traditional loans because charging interest conflicts with sharia law.
