Future terrorist islamic centre

PEOPLE have slammed a new development in Melbourne, calling it “a ghetto of Islam”.

A block in Melton South will be transformed into housing targeted at the Islamic community, with 75 separate lots and a mosque built in the middle of the neighbourhood.

It’s called Iqra Village and is said to become Victoria’s largest faith-based housing.

The development, which featured on A Current Affair on Monday night, sparked a lot of outrage on social media and there were myriad racist comments, with some even saying it shouldn’t be allowed.

“What a joke. If Australians build an Australian only suburb, we would all be racists,” a comment on Twitter said.

An anti-Islamic Facebook group is also encouraging people to boycott this housing development, which will be built near last November’s riots, caused by anti-Islamic groups who were against Islamic schools and mosques.

But the development is not a Muslim-only community and it will certainly not be gated.

While it will be rich with Islamic culture, it’s only targeted at Muslim families who might want to live around others with the same values.

Australian Federation of Islamic Councils treasurer Keysar Trad told A Current Affair Muslims were just creating a neighbourhood free of discrimination and free of misunderstanding.

“This particular venture is an indication there’s a feeling out there that there’s perhaps less acceptance of Muslims,” he said.

“A project of this nature will allow people to be able to develop a local place of worship or a local school without too many objections from neighbours. They won’t be getting in anybody’s way, it’s something within their local community.

“We’ve always encouraged our community to live among mainstream society and to build friendships and promote understanding and awareness.”

Australian Federation of Islamic Councils treasurer Keysar Trad says the development will make it easier for Islamic schools and places of worship to be developed.

Town planner Bill Kusznirczuk told A Current Affair he did not have a problem with it.

“Just make sure that we are planning these areas properly,” he said.

“Australia has found that its settlement post war has been a mix of a range of ethnic cultures and that’s a good thing, it makes for the perfect minestrone from an urban planning point of view.”

Mr Kusznirczuk encouraged the developments, as long as they remained open to all in the community.

“Make sure it’s inclusive make sure this particular parcel of land joins and isn’t segregated from others,” he said.

“Plan it well and there will be good outcomes for people who are living there.”

Another development called Indian Junction is also underway on the outskirts of Melbourne in Tarneit.

It is designed for the Indian community and will give residents access to Indian supermarkets, health centres and aged care homes.

Developer Sunil Kumar told A Current Affair anybody could live in the neighbourhood if they wanted to.

Melton City Council said in a statement it would continue to build an inclusive community that embraced and valued cultural diversity.

I don't necessarily agree with this, but its an understandable response to the constant roadblocking of any applications for new mosques or Islamic schools in the "mainstream".

Imagine the outcry if a housing development was exclusive to Christians or Jews. Yet Muslims wish to establish their own ghetto and the apologists see nothing wrong.

Besides, its not exclusively for muslims, its merely targeted for muslims.

So true Gordy, here's another one:

'outrageous - muslim only housing community'

"But the development is not a Muslim-only community and it will certainly not be gated."

That's a sickening state of affairs. France has Muslim dominated areas and they are a big problem. Enclaves are a bad idea.
