THE failure of Muslims to integrate is one of the factors identified by John Howard as contributing to the terrorism crisis.

Of course they should. But still keep their own culture as well. Basically stop with the random protesting lol

Define the 'Australian way of life'. If it includes a person's rights and freedom being breached then I don't want to be a part of it.

Our democracy recognises this right which is subject to the general law and must be
balanced against the rights and interests of others and of the community as a whole.
Of paramount importance are the protection of public safety, the maintenance of peace and
the facilitation of fair and equal access to public areas.

FlyingKanga, Australian values are

Australian values include:

respect for the freedom and dignity of the individual
equality of men and women
freedom of religion
commitment to the rule of law
parliamentary democracy
a spirit of egalitarianism that embraces mutual respect, tolerance, fair play, compassion for those in need and pursuit of the public good
equality of opportunity for individuals, regardless of their race, religion or ethnic background.

tbh, why does one care about what others do? If they want to be Muslim (or Hindu, Christian, etc) how does that affect you? Pls tell

Again, as Adrita said, as long as it isn't harming anyone else

There are good Muslims who are respectful and have good human qualities...
and then there are bad Muslims with the extreme interpretation of Islam which is not correct.

As long as they respect the culture and the country which they live in (Australia) there shouldn't be any problems.

Yes... of course, they can keep things which doesn't conflict with our culture, eg no burka (headscarf is reasonable replacement), no sharia law crap, meaning obeying our laws, and throw away the sharia attitude.

Also its offensive not to shake hands with the opposite sex.....

Islam is incompatible with the australian way of life

there is no benefit and plenty of harm from having a large muslim population in a western country
