John Howard was a historico-political blight on this country’s reputation as an egalitarian society.

No one should imply, as some of the comments do, that such men did not deserve what they got. I am a Muslim and have spent time talking to Muslim extremists about their views and these are individuals, though most non-violent, who hold out a scary vision. These Aussies are of the same mix, I am sure, except that they also endorse violence.

Thank God, Marco. You’re a breath of fresh air after receiving comments from pro-Radical Islamist propaganda makers that happen to contribute to this site.
I respect Muslims a lot and propagandists of Muslim extremism are what give Islam a bad name. My Muslim colleagues are a peaceful lot.

The trial became a major test case for the so-called “war on terror” and the draconian anti-terrorist legislation introduced by the former Howard government from 2002, with the Labor Party’s support.
Most of the 12 Muslim men on trial were arrested in highly-publicized police raids in November 2005, just days after then prime minister John Howard declared there was an imminent terrorist threat and recalled the Senate for an emergency session to push through far-reaching amendments to the anti-terrorism laws.
