Did the Australian Prime minister give a speech decrying Muslims?
No.
The closest any Australian Prime Minister has come to "decrying" Muslims was when John Howard (in office from 1996-2007) supported a statement from then-treasurer Peter Costello that Islamic extremists who desired to turn Australia into an Islamic state should leave.
This question seems to be directed at an email hoax doing the rounds, which has in fact been in circulation since 2005. The current Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, has certainly not made such a speech - and nor did John Howard, to whom the comments have often been attributed.
