The Aussies always put on a fantastic fireworks display. Sadly, the prospect of some Muslim blowing themselves up and killing as many others as possible has caused the Belgian authorities to cancel their celebrations.

Meanwhile in Gaza: Gaza’s Islamist Hamas rulers banned New Year celebrations in the Palestinian coastal enclave. Police spokesman Ayman Batniji said hotels and restaurants were allowed to hold parties a day earlier or a day later.
“Celebrating the new year contradicts the instructions of Islamic religion,” Batniji said. “It’s a Western custom that we don’t accept in Gaza.”
Speaking the Truth unto the Nation
Fair enough, but why then do we accept such as sharia courts here?
Western custom? Someone ought to tell the Chinese! Strange isn’t it; it’s OK for Muslims to ban harmless things like New Year parties in their countries but not OK for westerners to ban such cruel practises as halal slaughter.
