From what I have heard. it is totally un-Australian, it threatens the very fabric of our community

States want Islamist group outlawed Imre Salusinszky and Natalie O'Brien January 30, 2007 WHILE critics on the Left have denounced the curtailing of civil liberties under the federal anti-terrorism legislation, it seems the laws do not go far enough for the state Labor administrations. Outflanking the Howard Government on the Right on national security, the NSW and West Australian governments yesterday called for the banning of radical Islamic group Hizb ut-Tahrir (Party of Liberation). On Sunday, about 450 people at a conference convened by the group in Lakemba, in Sydney's southwest, heard speakers call on Australian Muslims to fight to create a pan-global Islamic state. NSW Premier Morris Iemma yesterday repeated his call for the Howard Government to outlaw the group. "This is not an organisation that is expressing a difference of opinion ... they're advocating war with Australia, on Australians," Mr Iemma said.
