But here we have judges who assure Mohammedans that our law is just like sharia:
Muslims who claimed to be above Australian law fined by non-Muslim judge who assures them he follows Qur’an
“The Holy Koran considers justice a supreme virtue, and I assure the defendants that this court pursues that virtue in every case it deals with, just as the Holy Koran requires of its adherents,” Justice Terence Sheahan told Mustapha and Diaa Kara-Ali.
He could have just said, “In Australia, Australian law applies to everyone.”
Instead, he engaged in this shameless Islamopandering, attempting to convince them that the Qur’an teaches what he says it does, not what they say it does. This is as foolish as the many judges who lecture jihadi defendants about how Islam teaches peace. Instead of pontificating about a book he has almost certainly not read or studied, Sheahan and his fellow judges should be pondering the implications of statements such as the one Mustapha Kara-Ali made upon leaving the court: “Our religion is prime, the cross belongs in the dustbin of history.” They should be pondering what that means for Australia’s future, and trying to determine how many Muslims in Australia agree with the Kara-Alis. But they won’t.
“Mustapha and Diaa Kara-Ali charged with contempt of court for clearing land,” by Benedict Brook, News.com.au, April 18, 2019
Brothers who illegally cleared Colo land fined $100,000 and convicted of contempt of court
There were fireworks inside Sydney’s Land and Environment Court as two men who took part in illegal land clearing began shouting and heckling before they were fined $100,000.
Key points:
- The men were found to have conducted illegal land clearing at their Colo property
- Dr Mustapha Kara-Ali and Diaa Kara-Ali ran a religious guild on the land, in Sydney’s northwest
- They had claimed their property was exempt from Australian law
Brothers Mustapha and Diaa Kara-Ali illegally cleared land and developed on a bush block in Sydney’s northwest, claiming the Islamic spiritual group they ran on the property was exempt from Australian law.
The pair were asked to leave the courtroom by their lawyer at one stage and came back after they had calmed down.
Hawkesbury City Council took the brothers to the Land and Environment Court in June last year.
From the beginning, the duo refused to take part in court proceedings and ignored orders by the court to stop construction works on the land.
Today they were convicted of 12 counts of contempt of court.
The Kara-Alis argued they were exempt from Australian law because their spiritual group, Diwan al Dawla, was classed as a basic religious charity.
That claim was not endorsed by the Australia Charities and Not-for-profits Commission, who later stripped the group of its charity status.
The brothers were also accused of locking in a man delivering them court documents by padlocking the gates on the Colo property while he was still inside. Continue reading Muselmaniacs are NOT exempt from Australian law
That is the most accurate headline of all the English language reports I have read so far. It is from Reuters. While the violence was caused by those demonstrating against Danish critic of Islam Rasmus Paludan the others were slanted to hint that he caused the trouble. For example the Copenhagen 
Here is a little background first from Maxime Lépante, our French correspondent in France:
Notre-Dame was one of the most important jewels of all human history. It started the “Gothic” architecture revolution, that was, from 12th to 15th century called “francigenum opus” (“French art”) before being called “gothic” by the Italians. It’s the epitome of Western civilization and Christian art. The framing of the roof, which was one of the biggest masterpieces of human carpentry, is permanently destroyed. The stained glasses (biggest and most ancient rose windows in Europe) are probably saved.
Some other information :
1) the workers who were refurbishing the roof of Notre-Dame are among the best specialized craftsmen in the world, concerning the restauration of medieval monuments (their title is “Meilleur Ouvrier de France”).They love their work, and take all the necessary precautions. They have worked in many rooms of the Castle of Versailles, they have restored many churches and cathedrals. For example, they worked during more than 20 years on the marvelous Strasbourg cathedral (I lived in Strasbourg and saw their progress), and there was never a single problem.
2) the workers stopped at 6:00 PM, the fire started at 6:50 PM, near scaffoldings, used to climb there.
3) no electricity was allowed near the roof because it was made in wood and as a matter of security, every inflammable thing was banned too. So, to have a fire there, someone needed to bring something.
Here is the latest update from Maxime Lépante, our French correspondent in France (emphasis is mine):
This is an update about what we know today about the fire that destroyed the roof and parts of the vaults of Notre-Dame:
1) Restoration work hadn’t started on the roof. The scaffolding were still being put in place. The architect in chief of the “Monuments Historiques” (“Historical Monuments”, the administration that maintains and repairs monuments in France), Philippe Villeneuve, who was responsible for the refurbishing of the spire of Notre-Dame, has stated that: “Work had not started yet, scaffoldings were still being built”.
2) Everything was done to avoid any source of heat near the wood of the roof. No electrical plug, no welding were allowed. So, Philippe Villeneuve says: “The hot spot hypothesis is therefore not the right one”.
3) The head of the company that was building the scaffoldings (Europe Echafaudage) (Europe Scaffolding), Julien Le Bras, was interviewed by a French TV (BFM) : “All I can say for the time being is that at the moment of the fire, absolutely none of the employees of my company was present on site”.
4) He added: “All safety procedures on the Notre-Dame de Paris site have been respected”.
5) One of my friends sent me an email concerning the security on the roof of Notre-Dame. She has a diploma in Art history and studied in the “Ecole du Louvre” (“Louvre School”, were students learn art history and restoration processes) : “I visited the framing of Notre Dame with architects of the “Bâtiments de France” (“Buildings of France”, the highest rank for an architect in France), some years ago. This 13th-century timber frame was extremely protected. Each intervention is always accompanied by historians, architects, experts; no work is envisaged without extreme caution; no source of heat, no torch, no electrical apparatus is allowed; a high-performance alarm system is in place, and very strict supervision of all people allowed there. I think we will eventually learn that this was arson.”
6) So, as I said yesterday, with all these security measures, to have a fire on the roof of Notre-Dame, someone had to bring something there and lit it up.
