Hey Aussies, how do you like the multicultural tolerance of your guests, now? Take a look at what passes for gratitude from the very people you have opened your homes to. The leader of the Australian Muslim community (and remember we’ve heard from this character before), expresses some not so conciliatory terms of endearment towards members of the very nation he darkens with his vile message of hate

Quote:Hilali emerges to deride 'nation of convicts'

SHEIK Taj al-Din al-Hilali has ridiculed his adopted country on Egyptian television, dismissing the furore over his insults to women and defence of gang rapists while claiming Muslims had more right to live in Australia than the descendants of convicts.
"The Western people are the biggest liars and oppressors and especially the English race," the Mufti of Australia said in Arabic during the extensive interview in Eqypt, his birthplace. "The Anglo-Saxons who arrived in Australia arrived in shackles. We paid for passports from our own pockets. We have a right in Australia more than they have."
Having last year suggested victims should share the blame for being sexually assaulted, Sheik Hilaly used the interview to blame the September 11 attacks on the US for influencing lengthy sentences given to Sydney's notorious Lebanese Muslim gang rapists.
"Up until then the worst crime in Australia had received seven years' jail," he said.
He told the two interviewers during the wide-ranging discussion that his time in Australia since the early 1980s had given him a great insight into the Australian way of life and the Western mentality, which he labelled "oppressive".
But then, referring to gay unions, Sheik Hilaly said: "I understand the mentality of the West and especially the Australian mentality and I understand that the Australian law guarantees freedoms to the point of insanity."
Perhaps the only real insanity is that we allow these seditious snakes the freedom to plot our demise from within the borders that provide our open and tolerant cultures.
Continuing:
Quote:"Their values [Australia's] are upside down. They have no democracy, no freedom. They are the worst liars and unjust people," the sheik said in the Arabic-language interview.
Alhilali also defended the Muslim men convicted of Sydney's gang rapes, a position that has caused controversy in the past.
"They arranged to meet in a public park at 2 or 3 am in the morning, and it (the sex) was agreed on," he said.
Alhilali also poured scorn on Australia's convict history and seemed to suggest Muslims were in Australia long before the British settled here in 1788.
"Australia is no longer Anglo-Saxon. We've been in Australia longer than them. Islam is deep rooted in the Australian soil. Islam was here before the English fleet."
OK Australians. I think you owe the good Sheik al-Hilali an apology. You should apologize for the mere fact of your continued existence.
