“And every time.”
These are the views of a Hunter businessman speaking in Maitland yesterday of the hostage crisis in Sydney and of the various Muslim terror groups.
And he slammed the hostage-taker for his crime.
“If that person turns out to be a Muslim, he will have been disobeying the teachings of the Koran,” the man said.
“If a person has wronged someone, the Koran forbids that person exacting revenge by attacking the family or friends of that person.
“You cannot hurt others for a bad deed caused by someone else – that is forbidden.”
He described the incident in Sydney as very sad.
And he referred to a recent broadcast by Hilary Clinton, who said: “The people we are fighting today are the people we funded 20 years ago in Afghanistan.”
It was from the Mujahideen groups, who expelled the Russians from Afghanistan, that the present terrorist groups were born.
The businessman said he was not worried about a possible backlash against Muslim people by other Australians in the wake of the present incident.
“We Muslims really don’t have a real problem in Australia,” he said.
“People should appreciate the difference between Islam as a religion and Muslims, who are human beings like any others who can make mistakes and commit crime.”
