Re: Racial Unrest Strikes Australia

You're right. I've only seen the Times of London cover it besides the Aussie papers. It doesn't look like one American paper has picked it up and the riots are going into their second nite.

I suspect the reason is that most of Australia's Mideast immigrants are Christian Lebanese --hence the media-military complex can't put the "Islamic spin" on the riots....


No. I think its because certain leaders in this country are worried that all this urban violence will spill over into this country. Last nite, they executed the founder of the Crips gang and people think riots may break out in LA.
