"Prime Minister John Howard angered some Australian Muslims yesterday by saying he supported spies monitoring the nation's mosques.
A day after holding a summit with 13 moderate Australian Islamic leaders, Howard said the government had a right to know if parts of the Islamic community supported or preached violence, and he favoured infiltration of mosques and schools if needed. "
