A VICTORIAN mosque plans to bestow awards on Australians they believe are Islamophobes -- politicians, community leaders or media identities they categorise as hostile to Muslims.
The Brunswick-based Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah Association has unveiled what it calls its annual "Islamophobia Award for the worst Islamophobes in Australia".
Likely to be near the top on the group's list of nominees is Pauline Hanson, who has come under fire from the mosque and other Muslims for her recent call for a "moratorium on any more Muslims coming into Australia".
Mosque leader Sheik Mohammed Omran, who teaches a fundamentalist minority form of Islam, has previously been questioned about his views on international jihad but he has condemned terrorism in Australia.
The Australian award follows a similar initiative in Britain where the Islamic Human Rights Commission imposed its Annual Islamophobia Awards on politicians including Australian Prime Minister John Howard, then British PM Tony Blair and US President George W. Bush.

Damnit, I have to move to Australia to qualify for one these things?
I got an award for ‘em.......right here......
I agree, it seems all the kids want to blow up some day just like their parents.
What? Awards are being given out to the nominees and winners instead of beheading them? How uncharacteristic of them.
The award will be called “Golden Fatwah”.
LOL! I’ll pass it on to them...anonymously! :-)
I would love it if some Aussie set up a website for other Aussies to sign up and pledge to each send $1 to whoever wins the “award”. That would put the jihadis in a nice little bind if a few thousand Aussies signed the pledge. People would start campaigning for the award, trying to outdo each other in their slams against the jihadis. Oh the hilarity that would ensue!
Hmmmm - now THERE is a thought!
I want one! I want one!
wait...
Mohamed eats bacon pizza dog-poop!
Do I get one?
Huh? Do I? Do I?
In all humility, I submit to you post #10.
Y'all give up now?
Count me in.
From the headline I thought it would be a Hollywood style event where they award an oscar for the best human bomb design, the best bomb presentation, the best bomb after effects, the best bomber performance, the best documentary of victims etc..
So when is the local Jewish temple going to bestow awards on muslims they believe are antisemitic?
