How Islam affects you
Islamic religious tax on foods you buy.
Common foods like Vegemite, Cadbury chocolates, Nescafe, Weet-Bix, SPC fruits, Purina cat food (of all things), and many more products are halal certified.
Have a look at that jar of vegemite in your pantry and you will see the AFIC symbol.
Certification fees are collected by halal certifying bodies such as AFIC (the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils). Where does the money go? - it goes to mosques, and from there to where?

You are paying this Islamic tax. Some abattoirs pay thousands of dollars to Islamic bodies for halal certification. For meat exported to Indonesia the charges can be as high as $27000 per month!
The costs and time for extra security in Australia.
If you fly, you have to arrive at the airport 2-3 hours early for security screening. This means long queues, removing your shoes and belt, carrying no more than 50mls of liquid aboard. This security is to identify terrorists, almost exclusively Islamic terrorists. You are paying for this extra security.
ASIO costs have risen 20% every year for 10 years and are now approaching half a billion dollars a year. Why? Because of "violent Jihadist ideology" according to the ASIO annual report. 10 years ago ASIO employed 500 people, now it is over 1800 people, and their new expanded office cost $631 million at last estimate. You are paying for this.
Health issues and costs
Islamic women have hugely disproportionate health issues compared with other Australians. Their method of dress protects them from sunlight, and as a result many Islamic women do not get enough ultra violet rays which leads to Vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency causes brittle bones, increased risk of seizures in new born babies, cardiovascular diseases, Type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and increased risk of cancers like breast cancer.
Their method of dress makes exercising hard, resulting in levels of obesity higher than the normal levels in Australia. Obesity is highly visible among older Muslim women.
You are paying for the costs of their increased health care.
Standard hospital dress rules used to insist on nurses having bare forearms for cleanliness and to reduce the risk of infections. This rule has been relaxed to allow Muslim nurses to wear long sleeves for their modesty where appropriate. As a medical editor said "balancing infection control measures with cultural sensitivities is challenging". Long sleeves are associated with increased risk of spreading the antibiotic resistant Staphylococcos superbugs. The relaxation of hospital dress rules is putting you at greater risk of infection.
Unemployment.
After 5 years living in Australia, over 90% of Muslim immigrants do not have, or want a job . Who is paying the welfare benefits for these people? You are paying. One in 6 children born in Australia is a Muslim, and yet they represent only 1.7% of the population. You are paying for more family benefits.
You are being misled.
1.7% of the Muslim population is agressively demanding and receiving special consideration. Special Prayer rooms at work places and airports. Prayer rooms at schools, Christian religious symbols removed from hospital chapels, prayer rooms at universities, and now shopping centres. At Broadmeadows (Victoria) shopping centre Muslims want two prayer rooms, one for males and one for females. The Muslim community at Broadmeadows says 'It exemplifies how far we are establishing ourselves in the community'. For the word establishing in the above line try penetrating. Even prayer rooms at AFL football stadiums. The new Perth stadium will have a prayer room built in. No other religion demands special prayer rooms. Special Muslim toilets at Monash University and similar institutions, special swimming times or special screens at public swimming pools. Segregated lectures - 'Brothers to the front, sisters to the back' - at universities in Australia. Christmas and Easter almost ignored at schools and other centres, Anzac Day criticised as insensitive to Muslims.The Australian Curriculum Studies Association wants Islam to be embedded in every school subject. There is a motion before the UN to make any criticism of Islam illegal and punishable - that is an outright assault on our right to free speech. And so on, and so on. No other religion demands all this special treatment.
The media rarely mentions the word 'Islam' if an article is derogatory to Muslims or Islam, instead the words 'Jihadists' and 'terrorists' are used. Political correctness ensures no-one prints anything that could be seen to insult the 'Prophet', which could cause Muslims to riot. Where are articles about the slaughter of hundreds, perhaps thousands of Christians in Nigeria? Why are converts to Islam referred to by their former western names (such as David) when they have done something bad, but by their Islamic name (Daoud) if they have done something good?
