Muslim workers at Australian Woolworth center attack cameramen at trial of terror suspects; co-workers rightfully upset
At least three Muslims working at a Woolworths center in Melbourne went and violently assaulted a cameraman and a reporter for the Herald Sun at a court hearing where nine suspects arrested in the police raid on al Qaeda operatives in Australia were facing terrorist charges (via Joshuapundit):SCORES of factory workers say they don't want to work alongside the thugs who bashed cameramen outside a court where nine men were facing terrorism charges.He's right, and that's a very understandable opinion and feeling, and it's certainly disgusting that the company would harbor such creeps. One sure thing, until something can be done, if I worked there, I would not exchange a single word of dialect with those cretins.
Three of five men who savagely beat a Channel 7 cameraman and hit a Herald Sun photographer outside the Melbourne Magistrates' Court on Tuesday work at the Safeway distribution centre in Broadmeadows.
The centre, which employs more than 500 workers, has twice been brought to a standstill this week as management tries to ease rising tensions.
At a crisis meeting yesterday dayshift workers were warned they faced the sack if caught bullying or harassing the men.
But one angry worker told the Herald Sun he could not understand why parent company Woolworths was protecting them.
"We don't want them here," he said. "Not all Muslims are terrorists, we know that. But beating up television crews . . . that's just un-Australian.
"This is the country I love . . . the company needs to take a stance to protect us."
If there's something that could be done about this by the public just now, it's to boycott Woolworths in Australia until the thugs are given the pink slip. That the company should be employing men who committed crimes like the one at the courthouse grounds is embarrassing, and gives Woolworths a very bad image and reputation.
