I had the very great honour of joining members of the Alawi Youth Movement last night to pay respects and offer my condolences on the passing of Mufti Asad Aafi.

The event was a powerful reminder of the role the Muslim community plays here in the inner west, in Australia and indeed the world. Our diversity makes us stronger and I’m proud to represent a community that celebrates our many cultures, languages and beliefs.

As the world comes to grip with Donald Trump’s racist and discriminatory ban on Muslims entering the US, I’m going to honour the powerful contribution made by Muslim Australians. I’m going to celebrate the richness afforded by multiculturalism. And I’m going to continue fighting for a more humane approach to asylum seekers and refugees.

with- Anthony Albanese, Luke Foley, Jihad Dib, Linda Burney and Sam Iskandar.

Albanese connection

From Antony Loewenstein:

A meeting of the Labor Left in 2010, attended by Luke Foley, Anthony Albanese, Andrew Ferguson and others, actually endorsed the BDS against Israel. Unanimously.
It wasn’t until Albanese saw an opening for political opportunism that he flipped, started attacking Greens party candidate Fiona Byrne and putting heavy pressure on his own Marrickville Councillors, particularly Mary O'Sullivan and then Deputy Mayor Sam Iskandar.
Iskandar (Albanese’s main numbers man) was holding firm under an immense amount of pressure to back down.
The real crunch was when the Greens party councillor Max Phillips publicly caved in and declared in the Sydney Morning Herald that he was now going to oppose the BDS. With no chance of the BDS remaining in place, Iskandar was off the hook and voted against it on the floor of council.[2]
