#1 "This could, in fact, incite trouble for Australia because there are a billion-and-a-half Muslims over the world and this will be publicised among those people,"

If that's not a threat, I dunno what is.

Australia!, I demand you slap him round the face, with his shoes no less!, and tell him to bugger off! There will be consequences if you do not! The army of Tone, numbering one, may well feel aggrieved if you do not. This could lead to restrictions on buying Ozzy wine, and perhaps even a delay in returning to your lovely land to spend large quantities of moolah. Oh calamity!.

There. If it works for him, it should work for me.

(When interviewed later on, the Army of Tone confessed that it's highly unlikely they will stop drinking Australian wine or taking holidays in Australia, as "Oz is a top place, the Army has many mates out there". The Army did say however, that they will instead cheer for England against Australia in forthcoming sporting events instead. When it was pointed out that this is what happens anyhow, the interview was terminated abruptly)

#3 It should do ... no less. (MGM Lion Roar)

Crikey!, I'd better get out of this alter-ego, I need to go to work today, and it would not be good for me to start wandering around mumbling about 'the Army of Tone' - although come to think of it ... ;)

#5 his visa problems would air throughout the Muslim world.

And this will cause Muslim tourists - er, terrorists, whatever - to leave Oz off their travel itineraries.

#6 I would actually pay to fly Qantas all the way down to OZ just to watch a bunch of silly muzzie terror wannabee's take on the Wallabies in anything, especially a death match. No contest. Why the hell threaten a country founded by bad boyz and pretty much one of the hard-ass countrys around? Picking on the wrong crowd there Abdel.

#7 Abdel's a Paleo - they're genetically predisposed to impotent rage and blustery threats

#9 Beavis:

No way. Catts at Fly but Barkley and Vickery are out. Tough to handle SA without some meat up front and some speed in the middle. Kicking will not win this match.

#10 Jack not to mention an 8 that's 40. But still I'd rather see a northern hemisphere win. Except France of course loved the Puma smack last Friday

#11 "I believe this is a deliberate delay because I am an Arab and a Muslim,"

Actually, it's because you're a pompous, self important asshole and we feel like breaking your balls. So sorry...
As far as "Muslim backlash" (shudder), would that be rage, seething, Dire Revenge, explosions, or beheadings, etc. We'd like to put it in the record for the next time you try to come back here.

#12 "I believe this is a deliberate delay because I am an Arab and a Muslim,"

And he'd be right. Few groups other than the Palestinians can take more credit for giving Muslims one helluva a crappy reputation. Suck it up you Islamic scribbler.

#13 How are the Aussies to discriminate between Muslim rage over this incident versus Muslim rage over any other alleged insult?

BTW....all hail the Army of Tone! ;)

#14 Is there anything that DOESN'T "incite trouble" when it comes to the delicate sensibilities of Muslims?

Islam is the problem. Islam has always been the problem.

#15 "Army of Tone" here. Can we *please* not talk about the rugby :( - basically it's not been the best of days for English sports ... :(

However, thanks for the acclaims Swamp Blondie ;)

As it happens, I was going to Oz in 2006 and found that I couldn't get a visa because my passport only had 6 months on it. Instead of declaring war and preparing an invasion, I renewed my passport instead, spending a pleasant day in Durham in the process.

However, I'm not one of 'the master race', and so don't expect the kuffar to bend over for me.

In short, this guys a tool, needs ignoring or preferably, a good kicking.
