Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I think Ireland really needs such a debate (I hope atheists are included as they have a type of faith!) - neither racial or religious prejudice, nor unconsidered political correctness is any help in dealing with the complex issues which concern us now.
I have heard Dr?Sheikh?Imam? Shaheed Satardien go on endlessly in the media about the threat of radical muslims and make very vague and bland statements about peace and co-existence but I not heard say much of substance, especially about the Iraq the Global war on Terror and the Ireland's support for the illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq and Ireland's material support for troops transport and renditions.
I invite him to make a public statement on troops transport through Shannon to the state terrorism the west is engaging in the Middle East. It might make me believe him more.

Next week: Sheikh Satardien on whether ‘Western civilisation’ is at war with Islam
I'll await him saying something of substance on that....
However, there is no evidence whatsoever that ‘Western civilisation’ is at war with Islam. President Bush’s ill-conceived ‘war on terror’ is a conflict for oil, and the fact that this oil is owned by Muslims is virtually irrelevant. If it were Latvians who owned the oil and wouldn’t play ball with US domestic and foreign policy, American troops would be in downtown Riga as I write.

Oh nnnnnearly but not.
Apparently he was interviewed in May's Garda Review where he critises Irish muslims people who are overally sympathetic to Al Qeada which is fair enough but afaik he does not mention the tyrants Bush, Blair or Bartholomew
I do not think that Sheikh, Imam, Dr, Professor Shaheed Satardien has to make any statements in order for you to believe him.
He is the most trustworthy Muslim leader around today. It is enough that he speaks the truth without any hidden agenda. He has made many statements against Bush, Blair, Saddam, Berlusconi and others. I think he should just go on the way he is, was and has been since I know him as a young anti-apartheid Muslim leader in the seventies.
Slightly off topic but any thoughts / advice appreciated re reconciling political activism and Buddhism...
