I am hoping that what we will see is a continuing disagreement between the followers of islam and the clerics who push the wahhabi line. In Australia, some 20 groups of muslims have combined to remove a radical cleric and replace him with a prayer leader of their own choosing. Muslims in Australia hail from numerous countries, many are Iranian. Many would happily assimilate if left alone to live normal lives. The clerics herd them like sheep, they threaten and abuse them.
There have been several instances where the community raised funds to build a mosque or a prayer centre, only to see it taken over by an imported imam from Saudi or Egypt.
It's a difficult concept for us to accept I realize, but muslims are literally afraid of their own clerics. Islam rules by fear. The longer muslims live in the West, hopefully, the less power the clerics will have over them.

Thanks for the informed reply!

What recourse does Canberra have as to the "imports" that teach the nasty stuff---if they have any at all?
