Anti-Muslim backlash across Australia

[thinktank]

Dozens of anti-Muslim attacks and threats have been reported across Australia as the backlash against America's terrorist strikes continues.

Petrol bombings, bomb scares and vandalism targeting mosques, churches, pre-schools, schools and offices have been reported across the country.

The public outrage comes as international officials begin to attribute Tuesday's attacks to Saudi exile Osama bin Laden.

Australian Islamic leaders said many Arab and Lebanese women are afraid to leave their homes.[ More ]

Fortunately, they are only a few, but there are those who like to physically attack anybody if they think they can get away with it.

If they were not bashing Muslims now, they would be looking for gays or nerds or somebody else.

That is total BS. These terrorists are zealots who pervert religion. I equate it to white supremisists and abortion clinic bombers that claim to be Christians. I feel for the Muslims right now. They are being unfairly targeted. Of course if someone believes that these attacks were justifiable in anyway, they are wackos that deserve to die.

This country is based on religious and personal freedom. I would fight to the death to defend these rights any day of the week.
