But they do deserve to be singled out as appeasement to the religion of peace. Certainly a very special breed of creature.

NSW Government gives Auburn Mosque Coronavirus exemption - 400 people allowed in for Eid al Adha

Friday, 31 July 2020

Remember St Mary's Cathedral, empty over Easter?
There were no exceptions for Catholic services.
Likewise Anzac Day services - cancelled, no exceptions.
But a Muslim ceremony - well that's different!

Hundreds of Muslim worshippers have marked one of Islam's holiest days at a Sydney mosque after the NSW Government granted it a temporary exemption from coronavirus restrictions.
Key points:

NSW Health said exemptions were only granted in "exceptional circumstances"

It said the mosque had a thorough COVID-19 Safety Plan

The mosque will split attendees into four areas, with no more than 100 in each

Up to 400 people were allowed inside the Auburn Gallipoli Mosque in Sydney's west under the one-off exemption, granted by NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard.
Under NSW coronavirus restrictions, places of worship are limited to 100 people, or one visitor per four square metres.
The mosque's president Abdurrahman Asaroglu said those attending the annual festival of Eid al-Adha, also known as the festival of sacrifice, would be subject to temperature checks, sign-in sheets, and it would be mandatory to wear a mask.
Worshippers at the mosque will be expected to bring their own prayer mats and abide by social distancing rules while praying.
Dr Asaroglu said attendees would be spread out across "four zones" including the two levels of the mosque, an adjoining function hall and carpark.
"Our community is really understanding and they are OK to follow these measures — no shaking hands, no hugging — making sure that they just pray," he said.
In a statement, NSW Health said exemptions were only considered under "exceptional circumstances" and the mosque had developed a comprehensive COVID-19 Safety Plan.
It said none of the separate zones would exceed 100 worshippers and would not be allowed to mix between areas.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison, in an interview this morning, urged religious communities to find alternative ways to celebrate their faith.
"Jenny and I haven't had the chance to be at our church since February," the Prime Minister said.
"I know faith is very important to people, but even at times like this it is even more important that we don't gather in those large groups as important as faith is, we really do think of the health issues here"
Eid al-Adha marks the end of hajj, a five-day pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, and is one of the holiest days on the Islamic calendar.

It would appear its all about skin colour, religion, and minority groups in regards to what you can and cannot do.

Had a gut full,
And im not the only one.
