Seditious Craziness from Islamist Down Under

THE notorious Sheikh Taj El-Din Hamid Hilaly has been making more bizarre statements. You may assume from his comments that Sheikh Hilaly is some wildly gesticulating, frothing loon on the far-out fringes of Australian Islamic society; an outcast of the wider Muslim community. Afraid not. He may well be a fruit-loop, but he certainly isn't a pariah: indeed, Sheikh Hilaly is Imam of Lakemba Mosque in Sydney, Australia's largest such building, and the leading spokesman for many of the country's 282,000 Muslim inhabitants. If this chap's considered representative, one dreads to contemplate what the radicals might be like.
