Australian radio host under the gun for mentioning Muhammad and his marriage to 6-year old Aisha

The most telling part of this article is towards the end, when we find that the Muslim who complained does not dispute or challenge the assertion about Aisha, but merely attacks the messenger.  When you hear that kind of answer form Islam you can be assured that the truth of the "offending" statement is accurate.

Also, the facts presented: Aisha was 9 at marriage and sexually molested at 11 is wrong.  Muhammad married Aisha when she was 6 and penetrated her when she was 9.  Here is the hadith;

   "The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with 'Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)." -- Bukhari 7.62.88.

By investigating the remarks made by Michael Smith as a hate crime rather than supporting his right to free speech, Australia takes one step closer to dhimmihood.  This should be bounced out of court after the laughter subsides.  Unfortunately it will not, and we can only pray we do not see Smith fired or punished for his statements.

2UE host's remarks on prophet investigated

THE radio presenter Michael Smith is being investigated by the media watchdog over his assertion that the prophet Muhammad ''married a nine-year-old and consummated it when she was 11''.

The Australian Communications and Media Authority confirmed in a letter dated July 21 that it was investigating the remarks by the 2UE afternoon host.

Adem Cetinay, a Muslim from Bossley Park, complained that Mr Smith was inciting hatred against Muslims through his July 5 broadcast.

''By making this remark he is asserting that God's messenger is a paedophile. This is racist, it's stupid and it is not needed on air,'' he wrote to the station's program director, Peter Brennan.

And Islam is what race again?

Mr Brennan replied that Mr Smith had made the ''throwaway line''.

''However, at no time did he refer to any Prophet's name, nor did he use the word 'Prophet'. He did not refer to anybody whatsoever in the broadcast,'' he wrote.

Mr Cetinay took his complaint to ACMA. In a letter, the authority's Eileen Haley said it would embark on an investigation that could take ''several months''.

Meanwhile, Mr Cetinay is awaiting a response over a separate complaint about remarks Mr Smith made over the controversial ''Jesus: a prophet of Islam'' billboard.

''What if someone whacked up a billboard and said well, I think it's a fact that because Muhammad was married to a 11 … you know consummating a marriage with an 11-year-old, by these standards he's a paedophile". His guest, Diaa Mohammed, the founder of MyPeace, which erected the sign, agreed that Muhammad had consummated his marriage with an 11-year-old.

2UE did not return calls.
