SEVERAL hardcore Islamists have been invited to a taxpayer-funded Muslim leaders conference run by the Howard Government.
The Prime Minister's Muslim advisory board chairman, Ameer Ali, says invitations to the Conference of Australian Muslim Religious Leaders next month were sent to extremist clerics including the ultra-radical Sheik Abdul Salam Mohammed Zoud, The Australian newspaper reported today.
Sheik Zoud heads the Sydney arm of the fundamentalist Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jammaah association.
Dr Ali said the aim was to help bring the clerics into the mainstream.
“Once you marginalise these people, keep them outside the fold, then they will continue with their opposition and with their radical ideas,” Dr Ali told the newspaper.
“Once they come into the fold and realise that the vast majority, mainstream imams are against those views and they are minority views, there's a good chance of them turning to new views (on) life.”
The hardliners who have been invited to the conference, believed to cost taxpayers around $300,000, practise Wahabbism, a fundamentalist teaching of Islam that is preached by Osama bin Laden, and inspired by the fanatical Taliban regime in Afghanistan.
