Gus > I have Muslim friends who used to feel that they were Australians, but now cannot identify themselves in the negative space created for them in our community. I have non-Muslim friends who are furious at being mistaken for Muslims because of their Middle Eastern background

Isn't that what the War against Terrorism is all about -- the demonization of the Muslims?

Note that the rioting and anti-black feeling is not directed against the aborigines.
