No Osama, No F16s

Oh heavens, the long-awaited sacred F16 deliveries are in jeopardy!

Those mean liberals are threatening to establish a No-Fly Zone in Pakiland. The Democrats may delay the delivery of the only aircraft that Pak values enough not to plunge into their skyscrapers.

Ouch! Talk about a kick in the Musharraf!

The Muslim Problem and What to Do about It - John Stone


WHEN I WAS ASKED to give this talk, I hesitated before accepting. I have written previously about Australia’s Muslim problem—principally on the opinion page of the Australian, and also, at greater and hence more considered length, in the quarterly National Observer last October—and have been the subject of assorted abuse for doing so. While I wear most of that as a badge of honour, I have also been described (not by name, but collectively) as a “fool” by Andrew Bolt, a columnist whose views I generally respect.

Greg Sheridan, whose foreign policy views I usually hold in high regard, described some much more limited remarks on this topic by Peter Costello earlier this year as “cheap, lazy, nasty populism”, “foolish”, “lazy, incendiary” and “idle rhetoric” that “demonises Islam”. Since Costello’s comments were a mere trifle comparatively, I hesitate to imagine Sheridan’s opinion of my own views.
