Don't hurt us, please, please, we will reward you with statehood for massacring, raping and kidnapping jooos and waging war for over a year with Iranian Islamist jihadi support.
Please! I am a Muslim too, you know! The Ummah - It's all about Labor in power?
But The Muslim Vote convener Wesam Charkawi rejected Mr Husic’s plea, urging Muslim voters who had been “neglected … for far too long” to take a stand against Labor at the ballot box.
“(The Labor government) consistently held that Israel has a right to defend itself while Palestinians were being butchered,” Sheik Charkawi said: “(The government) refused to sanction Israel, refused to expel the Israeli ambassador, refused to call for an arms embargo, and refused on multiple occasions to call for an unconditional ceasefire.”
The organisation has spearheaded independent campaigns in southwest Sydney, where local doctor Ziad Basyouny is running against Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke in Watson and Cumberland councillor Ahmed Ouf against Education Minister Jason Clare in Blaxland.
The Muslim community is split on whether a “voice at the table” was preferable to a more overtly “pro-Palestine” independent member, and whether a vote in anger against Labor would inadvertently propel the Liberals into government – a prospect the majority of Muslim voters would be against, despite anger with the ALP.
But Sheik Charkawi said the two major parties were cut from the same cloth and the campaign wouldn’t change its approach in the event of any looming Liberal victory.
“It is possible to have an unintended consequence through some Liberal candidates winning. However, while this is not an objective or aim, Muslims aren’t afraid of a Liberal government,” he said.
