More sharia in the West. More abridgment of our hard fought freedoms. For what? For what’s happening in the Middle East and Africa? Is that really what these people want?
The fact is what this radio personality said about Muhammad was true. Muhammad did marry Aisha at six and consummate the marriage at nine. But telling the truth about Islam and Muhammad violates the sharia. Not only was he fired but his remarks were followed by the attendant death threats by Muslims. Of course. Islamic supremacists say whatever they want. But you can’t.
That the West would adhere to this brutal ideology is societal suicide. Fifty years ago we would never have tolerated such barbaric customs in our midst. Now we are told to respect it.
There is no way the West can win this war if we surrender without so much as a fight.
If I lived in Australia I would organize protests in front of program director David Kidd’s office in defense of freedom of speech.
There is no freedom of speech where there is Islamic law and everywhere Islamic law and Western law conflict, it is Western law that must give way. Enough!
Radio presenter Michael Smith dumped after comments about the Prophet Mohammed,” ABC News Australia, June 29, 2014
Sydney talkback radio host Michael Smith has been told he will no longer be filling in on 2GB after making controversial comments about the Prophet Mohammed.
The former 2UE presenter made the comments on Thursday during his regular guest spot with 2GB host Ben Fordham.
Smith was discussing the recent controversy over a talk the Festival of Dangerous Ideas had booked – and later cancelled – with a Muslim activist, titled Honour Killings Are Morally Justified.
He compared the festival’s invitation to Uthman Badar to asking the leader of the Ku Klux Klan to speak.
Smith said the founder of Islam was “a man who promoted the idea that it was OK to marry a six-year-old and consummate the marriage when the little girl was nine”.
The broadcaster had been due to fill in for afternoons presenter, Chris Smith, from Monday for three weeks.
On Saturday he wrote on his website that 2GB program director David Kidd had called and cancelled the booking, telling him he could not “call a deity a paedophile”.
Smith pointed out that he had made similar comments on 2UE in 2011, and had been acquitted of a complaint of inciting hatred and of factual inaccuracy by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).
Mr Smith said on his website he stood by his comments.
