"Members of Sydney's Muslim community have used a public meeting to express concerns over the Federal Government's proposed anti-terrorism laws.
Prime Minister John Howard has used the fourth anniversary of the September 11 terrorism attacks to bolster his case for the new laws.
The anti-terrorism summit was held at Sydney University and included a minute's silence to remember victims of terrorism.
Speakers discussed issues such as multiculturalism and civil liberties.
All agreed that terrorists who claim to act in the name of Islam are not true Muslims. "
