Back to "Have your say"

I grew up in Lebanon. I am Christian. We lived near Muslim neighbours side by side and lived together as a family almost. All my life we were the best of friends. During an event in which a muslim man who was very influential in politics was killed in a bombing there was a stand up from another very influential muslim leader who instructed all fellow muslims to stand up and kill the Christians.

My entire family were slaughtered by our neighbours. I came as refugee status to Australia to live with my relatives here. At the time Bob Hawke was the Prime Minister and I received a special letter from him in which he acknowledged my horrific circumstances and gave me his sincerest apology.

This is the situation - Muslims will always stand by each other.

If this does not convince you - my mother was murdered by the muslim mother. This muslim lady and my mother grew up since they were 5 years old.

Any Lebanese Christian will tell you - they have run over our country. They have destroyed us. Their ultimate aim is to rule the world and fight for what they believe in.

Please believe me when I tell you that you can not trust them.
