And only seven Muslim criminals/terrorists are charged ? A bit surprising, I’d say, considering that 22 people were initially arrested.
SEVEN protesters accused of taking part in last month's Villawood riots were being charged by police last night, hours after revelations that a home-made bomb had been found in the centre prompted authorities to conduct a thorough search of detainees' rooms.
Officers from the Australian Federal Police last night began charging detainees believed to have been involved in the riots, during which buildings were razed and firefighters were pelted with roof tiles.
Well, at least the AFP decided to charge someone this time instead of providing free counselling and psychological care for the perpetrators.
Still, why are there not charges laid for criminal negligence in handling the situation?
Mr Bowen said yesterday he had been prepared to use force to end the protest, but the AFP, which had ultimate control of the situation, advised him it was not safe to do so. The Australian understands NSW police, with whom the government was also consulting, were willing to get the trio down.
Either Bowen or the AFP top brass should be held responsible don't you think?
Also it would be good to know what really caused of the explosion which damaged the centre’s kitchen.
The search followed revelations aired by Sydney radio talkshow host Ray Hadley that a homemade bomb had been found inside Villawood in March.
In a major embarrassment for Mr Bowen, who knew nothing of the incident when challenged on air about it, NSW Police yesterday confirmed the report. (source)
Oh I forgot, it was the gas cylinder of course.



















Australians celebrate and revere Anzac Day on April 25th each year in remembrance of our brave soldiers who fought in two great world wars to secure our freedom. Every Australian identifies with the slogan “lest we forget” and in services held around the country people reflect on the battles and men who died to secure our freedom. Yet across the world in France, there is one remarkable battle which helped form the Europe we know today and allowed the development of civilization based on Judeo Christian principles. This one famous battle has become known as the battle of Tours and effectively stopped the Muslim advance into Europe. After the death of Mohammed in 632AD, Muslim armies exploded out of the Arabian peninsula to conquer much of the Middle East, expanding across north Africa. From there they crossed into Spain in 711AD and eventually controlled much of al-Andalus by 715AD. It was the victory at Tours by Charles Martel that stemmed the tide and eventually the Muslim marauders were expelled from Spain in 1492 when the last outpost at Granada fell to King Ferdinand of Spain.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was born, lived, fought and won battles against religious and social oppression in the 17th century Bharat or India. He was a shining star in the Indian firmament and is renowned as a champion of the downtrodden and depressed masses. He was and continues to be an icon for the classes and masses alike and is seen as a rallying point for peasants oppressed by foreign rulers, Pathans and Moghuls alike. Sexually exploited women found in Shivaji Raje a protector, a benefactor and flocked to his Hindavi Swaraj to find solace and feel liberated under his saffron flag.
Perhaps some readers might be interested to know that January 28 is considered a feast day among Catholics – actually 2 feast days are celebrated on the same day – one is of ST Thomas Aquinas, the great medieval theologian and philosopher who adapted Aristotle to the western Judeo-Christian worldview. . It is also the feast day of a lesser known person – St Peter Nolasco, the great ransomer of captives from the Muslims.

How often in conversation with a Muslim, do they quote Spain as the crowning achievement of Islam, where Muslims, Jews and Christians lived in harmony for about 800 years?
Why do Muslims insist that Jerusalem is their Holy City?
There is a very strongly entrenched view among majority of Westerners today that the three main monotheistic religions Judaism, Christianity and Islam share one common God and therefore despite the obvious differences, the core foundation of these three religions is the same.
