Q&A Muslims

[Rorschach]

Like I said Roach....no matter what fact is put in front of you.

You mean knowing fact from fiction is my forte and not yours eh Useless... comes from having a good mind and a proper education.
Alas poor Gunga....

Its not the last, Phil. It will never be the last while you lie and are still alive.

Gee, aussie isn't lying again is he?

Hawke is a jerk at the best of times... but on this occasion he has a point.

The ABC does itself no favours in pushing either just a LW or Progressive agenda, in the face of reality.

That is exactly why I do NOT watch ABC (except for Silk, which I currently tape to watch at my leisure). The ABC should be wound down or disbanded. Do you remember when Whitlam (around the time colour TV came in)tried to impose a $20 tax on us? They still do that in the UK, I think. We Australians told him to get knotted!

Sorry I forgot to mention the word "Muslims".

Yeah Muslims and the ABC and greens just go together nicely that's why I don't watch the idiotic talk backs they host. The ABC is a pathetic joke and waste of taxpayers money.

It should have been privatised years ago.

I see Miranda Devine wrote a piece on this today... how strange that she should completely agree with me on it.
And not the useful idiots like Useless and co.

Has there ever been a more dangerous and despicable Q&A?
SEPTEMBER 23 2014

Has any Q&A panel been more frightening and threatening?

The claim that terrorists have “legitimate concerns”, although, of course, the killing is bad.

The unchallenged vilification of Israel and its “war crimes”.

The describing of Israel as a “root cause” of Muslim terrorism.

The insistence that we will keep getting extremism unless we end our support for evil Israel.

The steering of this discussion away from Islamist threats to Australians and onto alleged Australian meanness to Muslims.

The dismissal of terrorism as “theatre”.

The repeated attacks on the government for allegedly arranging the police raids for political purposes.

The repeated claims that white racists aren’t policed as Muslims are.

The repeated complaints - by people in the audience, too - that Muslims are picked on.

The attacks on the expectation that Muslims follow “the Australian way”.

The heckling of Justice Minister Michael Keenan, with claims the timing of the raids was convenient for the Government.

The barrage of tweets attacking the Government and Islamophobia, and suggesting the police raids were a stunt.

The West created this threat by invading Iraq.

The pack attack on politicians opposing the burqa, a shroud of oppression of women.

Naturally, host Tony Jones has stacked the panel: two Muslim activists (who do most of the talking), plus one MP each from Labor, the Liberals and Greens. Jones reserves most of his hard questions for the Justice Minister, and none for the two Muslim apologists.

Muslim extremists watching would feel more justified than ever in their rage at the alleged crimes Australia and Israel commit against Muslims. They would feel that Australia must change to accommodate them ... or else.

The ABC is out of control. And this kind of stuff actually puts us in more danger.



UPDATE

Alex Hawke is right - the wildly unbalanced ABC is pouring petrol onto the fire and people could get hurt:

Liberal MP Alex Hawke attacked last night’s Q&A program for providing a forum for the opinions without seeking to balance them with views from moderate Muslims.

Mr Hawke said the program had “inflamed” the debate about national security at a time when all sides, including politicians and the media, should avoid voicing extreme views.

The ABC defended the program, saying last night’s panellists had offered a range of views.

Mr Hawke said he was concerned Q&A had aired theories from some panellists that the ASIO raids on terror suspects last week were manufactured to build support for tougher security laws.

Accusing the ABC of breaching its charter by failing to provide balance, Mr Hawke told the full meeting of Coalition MPs this morning that he was “appalled” at the way the program had aired the views without offering a more moderate response.... [O]ne minister was heard to describe the criticism as the “speech of the day” in the Coalition meeting.

Speaking afterwards, Mr Hawke told The Australian ... “My concern about Q&A is they were not being balanced or moderate or sticking to the ABC’s charter obligations to be balanced ...

“For ordinary Australians watching, they would have felt there was a majority Islamic view that the police raids were a conspiracy and that is not a mainstream Islamic view.

“So that was inflaming a situation that does not need inflaming.

“And given that it’s the ABC and it’s taxpayer funded, I think people would be right to be concerned about the program.”

Yeah......let's get rid of the public servants. You'd be with that, Roach?

*Left is bad ~ right is good.*

Ok now you've made yet another idiotic statement unrelated to anything I posted... what's next?
Considering I'm Left BTW you may like to rethink or think of another ploy eh?

If you are left, it is just to the left of Ghengis Khan, but to the extreme far right of Mao.

The claim that terrorists have “legitimate concerns”, although, of course, the killing is bad.

The unchallenged vilification of Israel and its “war crimes”. Are you telling me Israel is as pure as the driven snow?

The describing of Israel as a “root cause” of Muslim terrorism. I have often considered that prospect, but I have no proof.

The insistence that we will keep getting extremism unless we end our support for evil Israel. Well, it is one contributing factor.

The steering of this discussion away from Islamist threats to Australians and onto alleged Australian meanness to Muslims. I saw no such steering.

The dismissal of terrorism as “theatre”. It is theatre. It is done for effect just as theatre is.

The repeated attacks on the government for allegedly arranging the police raids for political purposes. Are you seriously suggesting that the presence of TV cameras at dawn raids was sheer accident? They just happened to be there?

The repeated claims that white racists aren’t policed as Muslims are. I don't see dawn raids (televised) on them, do you? I have seen nor heard any report of any police action against those pricks.

The repeated complaints - by people in the audience, too - that Muslims are picked on. Unless those people are lying, they clearly are. They say they are. Can you prove them to be liars?

The attacks on the expectation that Muslims follow “the Australian way”. There is no defined Australian way. That is as much puff as the expression, Team Australia. The 'if you are not with us, you are against us' crap.

The heckling of Justice Minister Michael Keenan, with claims the timing of the raids was convenient for the Government. How is that heckling. It is absolutely true!

The barrage of tweets attacking the Government and Islamophobia, and suggesting the police raids were a stunt. I'm not surprised there was a barrage. It is popular opinion.

The West created this threat by invading Iraq. Did they not? Howard's embarrassing non existent weapons of mass destruction?

The pack attack on politicians opposing the burqa, a shroud of oppression of women.

Naturally, host Tony Jones has stacked the panel: two Muslim activists (who do most of the talking), plus one MP each from Labor, the Liberals and Greens. Jones reserves most of his hard questions for the Justice Minister, and none for the two Muslim apologists. I did not observe that.

Muslim extremists watching would feel more justified than ever in their rage at the alleged crimes Australia and Israel commit against Muslims. They would feel that Australia must change to accommodate them ... or else. Rubbish. Bolt is the last person anyone ought rely upon to read sentiment.

The ABC is out of control. And this kind of stuff actually puts us in more danger. Hysterical claptrap.

Not at all... you just show how politically inept and ignorant you are.
