In a study in Queensland (QUT) Dr Adibi found that Muslims in Australia were among the most disadvantaged in terms of employment due to four main factors: racism, discrimination, media bias, and the lack of Muslim representation in decision-making bodies.

"Another finding was that Muslim women were even more disadvantaged than Muslim men, and the actual rate of unemployment among women is much higher than Australian Bureau of Statistics show," said Dr Adibi.

"This is because Muslim women are less likely than Muslim men to define themselves as actively looking for work, are less likely to register as unemployed in Centrelink offices, and also because the hijab is seen in the wider community as an obstacle to Muslim women seeking employment."

It was also found that youth unemployment among Muslims contributed to a feeling that their aspirations for mainstream acceptance were being "thwarted".

The study found that the issue should be tackled in a number of ways, including job creation, combating racism and prejudice, and community development.

Yes they certainly are, because they make no attempt to fit into the local culture, and assimilate.  Some immigrants also bring their own political views.  These views should be left behind and they should make the effort to start afresh.  Yeah sure bring your own religion, but also be tolerant and accepting of others,  (and that also goes for the Australians).  There is no need to push your own views, we get it, and there is no need to feel like an outcast also, this is what breeds fundamentalism and extremism. We all need to be more understanding let's embrace the differences.  Without trying to sound cliche, we're all different and let's be proud of our differences and cultures and accept that we are all different and will always have different points of view, but there is no need to try and kill each other about it, and finally if anyone doesn't like our culture, then you can always choose to either go back or go to another country and that's fair, we are not trees, we can move.
