Australia’s Palmer United Party Senator Jacqui Lambie has yet again called for Sharia law supporters to leave the country, claiming that the law involves terrorism.
According to Lambie, who claims she has no problem with Muslims, the Islamic legal system “obviously involves terrorism” and its followers need to instead follow Australian law “100 percent”.
“If you are not going to show your allegiance to our constitution and to Australian law, then get out,” she told ABC’s Insiders.
She is also not relenting on her call for the ban of the burqa headdress, arguing that it is a security risk.
“I believe it is a national security issue,” she said.
“It is just like anything else, it is like a motorbike helmet. It’s like a balaclava. I will not allow you to wear that into my office because it is a security risk.”
People should be able to show their faces and “they shouldn’t feel that they need to be oppressed, to be able to hide their faces,” she said.
“I think that’s the way for the future of Australia.”
The Senator defended her decision to post a photo online of the first female police officer in Kandahar who was murdered by the Taliban, while calling for the headdress to be banned.
“What I was showing people is how heroic she was,” she claimed of the picture of Malalai Kakar, shown wearing a burqa and holding a gun.
“I am choosing this woman because she is a bloody hero. What she done was extremely heroic and she should always be remembered for that.”
Senator Lambie also said she “absolutely” stood by her call for Sharia law supporters to pack their bags and leave Australia.
When asked what she understands Sharia law to mean, the PUP Senator said it “obviously involves terrorism”.
“It involves a power that is not a healthy power.”
You can’t follow both Sharia law and Australian law, she claimed.
“You can’t have 50-50.”
The former soldier said the government was “heading in the right direction” tackling the issue of terrorism at home.
“It needs to go in hard and fast.”
I love this speech made by senator Lambie. i hate sharia law bcos it is inhumane, it is wickedness, it is terrorism. How i wish sharia law could be abducted from Nigeria law. I don’t know why sharia law shld be included in Nigeria’s constitution. is Nigeria an Islamic state? bcos they are planning to claim our lives using boko haram has their weapon. I see islam has a religion that loves revenge and hates people who are not their religion. sorry to say this islam is not a religion that shows ‘LOVE’ . They said islam is a religion of peace but i see no peace in islam but war, terrorism, manslaughter, occultism and darkness.
Chioma i can’t blame you for what you are saying cos you don’t have idea of what Islam is…And about Shariah,please don’t be sentimental,go and ask what it means.And i want you to remember that no Religion teaches Peace other than Islam.Boko Harams are not Muslims,they were been sponsored by International community and some of our miscrants here in Nigeria who according to them they are controlling the whole World,and they think that by doing so,they will finally gather people who will worship Devil (Lucifer),at the same time i want you to remember that in any society where there are more than three people,definitely there must be bad ones.There are bad ones in Islam and in Christianity,all that we are espected to do now is to Pray for them and think of what to do in other to make our dear Nation move forward.I just wish and Pray that you will finally understand and accept the truth….Thank You
