Today while shopping I saw two youths push and insult a Muslim woman. I called out to them and they ran away. As I aproached the lady to see if she was ok, She looked at me with fear as if she expected me to also attack. She turned and hurried away.
This sort of things seems to happen often. I have heard of instances where people have spat on Muslim Women.
This is the society in which I live. A society that is intolerant of anything that is different, supported by our Government, who in turn give lip service to the acceptance of minorities.
Mosques have been attacked with anti Muslim graffiti, One Mosque was set on fire.
In the suburb of Cronulla last year, youths rioted bashing anyone who looked Middle Eastern in apearance or Muslim, even women. When Muslim youths, fired by anger retaliated later, it was Muslims who were arrested.
In the Suburb of bankstown the situation has degenerated to a state of all out gang warfare. Anglos against muslims and vica versa.
Muslim Refugees are locked away, some for years, in Detention centres.
This year there will be an Election in Australia. Already one candidate is standing on a platform of either restricting, or banning, Muslim migration to this country.
Plus callng for the immediate deportation of foreign born Muslims for any wrongdoing. No one else, just Muslims.
Whenever there is crime commited by a Muslim, the headlines eflect that. But if a Christian commits the same type of crime it does not say "Protestant charged with rape".
Our so called copy of the American Homeland Security Act actually makes this post subject to possible charges of Sedition.
A Muslim, of any nationality can be, and have been, detained just on a "Suspicion" of having contact with so called Terrorist organisations. No proof is needed and the detainee can be held indefinately.
Sorry about this post, but I need to vent my frustration at what I see as a whittling away of our democratic rights.
I may even be starting to feel paranoid, wondering if this fear is why I can get no response from my emails to Mosques and Muslim organisations here.
I think I will have a coffee and calm down.
