Clearly he answers to a higher law than us mere kaffr :-)

I don't know anything about a bazooka, but I would be quite surprised to see any of them driving an unregistered car and resisting arrest.

It's just as well we are constantly reminded that Islam is the 'Religion of Peace' because it would be very easy to forget it.

>> My imagination won't take me there.

In fairness, Pell also has a bit of a checkered past too. Pell's sins may have been sins of omission (ignoring his responsibilities), but so are the Sheik's.

What defies imagination is the resisting arrest, and the arrogance of someone who thinks he has a right to avoid justice because of his position within his narrow little cultural group.

There are treaty issues here - I can get an international driver's license and drive around non-English speaking countries. I have never been brave enough to actually do so - they all seem to drive like idiots, but the point is that I can.

Australia could stop non-English speakers from driving in Australia, but then other countries will stop English speakers from driving there. It wouldn't be a win.

.. unless we act now, it's only a matter of time.
