I suggest you know about as much about Muslims as you do about women Herbie.
Most Muslims assimilate just fine.
No they don't.
'Integrate'? - yes.
'Assimilate'? - no.
Born-in-Australia Muslims are playing Arabic, Turkish or Pakistani music in their cars as they drive along our roads. I hear it all the time.
SBS TV and Radio services depend for their very existence on the fact that Muslims and others
haven't assimilated into the Australian mainstream, but are cultural ghettoists who are determined to live as close as possible to the life their immigrant parents came from.
The Auburn City Council Deputy Mayor is a case in point. Well integrated - but otherwise wants nothing to do with 'assimilation'. His wedding was a showcase of defiance against the local Australian culture.
Which brings us to 'multiculturalism', dear Mothra ...
What do you suppose that means?
It's our government telling our migrant community to by all means resist assimilation into the Australia Way, and we'll be satisfied if they only go so far as to integrate.
