John Howard to meet with Muslim leaders
Prime Minister John Howard will host a meeting of Australia's senior Muslims to discuss ways of dealing with those who encourage violence.Mr Howard is this week expected to write to the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC) and other senior Muslims, inviting them to a summit on the issue. The move comes after the London bombings and after concerns were raised about a Melbourne cleric, who says he would be betraying his faith if he advised his students not to attend terrorist training camps. Mr Howard announced on Friday plans for a summit on terrorism with the state and territory leaders. The meeting will consider measures including identity cards, transport security and tougher anti-terror laws to curb the threat of terrorism. Posted by: God Save The World 2005-08-06 |
