Leave the country if you want Sharia

Apparently somebody is paying attention to what happens when radical Muslims run amok unchecked by PC absorbed societies. In Australia...

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, seen as heir apparent to Howard, 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,”

And in the UK
Interior Minister Charles Clarke published a list of “unacceptable behaviours” that would prompt deportation or a ban on entry. “The terrorist threat facing the UK remains real and significant and it is right that the government and law enforcement agencies do everything possible to counter it,” said Clarke in a statement.

“That includes tackling those who seek to foster hatred or promote terrorism, sending a strong message that they are not welcome in the UK.” The list of activities, which covers any non-UK citizen in Britain or abroad, includes expressing views which foment, justify or glorify terrorist violence in pursuit of particular beliefs and seeking to provoke others to terrorist acts.

The government said its plans covered views expressed through written, published or distributed material and websites as well as public speaking or preaching.

Prime Minister Tony Blair has said the “rules of the game are changing”.


Sorta like the 9/11 ephipany that at least some Americans experienced.
