gemini52 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Australian Prime Minister does it again!! This woman should be appointed Queen of the World.. Truer words have never been spoken. Prime Minister Julia Gillard- 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..Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT.. Take It Or Leave It.I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. ''This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom''We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society .... Learn the language!''Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.''We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.''This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.' 'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in UK , SA, Canada & USA, WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths. If you agree please SEND THIS ON and ON, to as many people as you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figgy Then at least be honest and explain that it's fantasy or wishful thinking and not try to pass it off as something which really happened. Not you by the way, but the who originally dreamt it up and tried to pass it off as real to the gullible.

Sha Bu Le Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) Surprised Henry D has not pulled the OP yet, I fell for the same one but with Kevin Rudd, previous Oz PM. Pontificating person, just means I will post nothing more than mundane items. Oh!! thanks Henry............ for nothing but a destructive diatribe against more than a couple of people contributing to that thread. It is not about gullibility as has been mentioned, people receive these emails from trusted sources and accept them at face value, they have no reason not to. And its only recently I heard of snopes.

I don't get it, you are saying what exactly? Henry D is wrong to point out that some of the 'facts' about certain emotive subjects are complete lies? Or are you saying Henry D is wrong because he wants people to check that what they say is true rather than pandering to what some people want to be true?

Blunderbuss Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) It is not about gullibility as has been mentioned, people receive these emails from trusted sources and accept them at face value, they have no reason not to. Almost the very definition of gullibility. A good mate forwarded me one a while back, in good faith I'm sure, telling me if I didn't pass it on to 5 other people a terminally ill child would die, or some such nonsence. The internet is full of this bumf, are you really saying that if you get passed a Nigerian scam or chain mail, you don't question it if it was sent by someone you 'trust'?

Diceman Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 It is called "confirmation bias" - people read something they want to be true, and don't look elsewhere for evidence to the contrary in case it shatters the illusion. I have never yet received one of these sort of 'pass it on' emails that has stood up to any further scrutiny. Believe whatever chain emails you like, but if you forward them on I think you have a responsibility to your friends to do at least a few minutes googling.

scouser Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 i wish it was bl--dy true, i'm fed up with the majority bending over backwards not to offend the minority, if they want sharia law let them go find it somewhere else. rant over.

henry d Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Surprised Henry D has not pulled the OP yet... Well there you go, I can`t be here all the time! (I was just up the road from you as it happens) Oh!! thanks Henry............ for nothing but a destructive diatribe You are welcome, I aim to bring some truth to the matter, rather than taking things at face value. It is not about gullibility as has been mentioned, people receive these emails from trusted sources and accept them at face value, they have no reason not to. Then the source is not trustworthy as they did not check things out first. And its only recently I heard of snopes.Even googling it would have shown it for what it was.
