Stop hesitating, Indians are being targeted : Comments

By Nazeem Hussain, published 3/8/2009

The police went to India to educate Indians on safety in Australia: just a business trip to keep education revenue coming?

Er... did anyone stop to notice that the original attack on the Indian students were perputrated by Ethopians students? Not White AngloSaxon Australians. Strange no one has spoken up about that. Maybe that would be Racist or Politically Incorrect... Don'no? Strange though?

The only ones being TARGETED are the Australian tax payers.

There seems to be feeding frenzy going on:
-- The private colleges are busy enrolling as many as they can squeeze in the door, whether or not they have the proper facilities, and, when the business goes belly up, the college directors walk away having made a motza. The industry insurance scheme supposedly set up to cover such an eventuality, wipes its hands of it,but collects its wages on way out the door. And, the students get reassigned to a new college--at tax payers expense.
--The Lawyers and Immigration agents have been busy supplementing their incomes by peddling English test papers & phoney work certificates –and, ready made excuses for any eventuality.
--The Govt employees’ are boosting their wages selling English Papers and turning a blind eye , and
--The students are lining up in ever increasing numbers to study COOKING & HAIRDRESSING ! so they can qualify for residency.
(every time I hear someone mention that on the list of much needed, essential, locally unsuppliable skills were HAIRDRESSING & COOKING, I fall into a fit of uncontrollable laughter!)

AND, I would suggest,that the efforts to keep the student bashings issue in the public eye is in part, perhaps a large part, designed to play on Australian public opinion and (hopefully) influence visa applications. Who knows, if they can stir the issue enough they many manage to get another Prime Minister to cry , a la J Hawke, and grant blanket residency to all and sundry.

Nazeem,
Good article and it is needed.

The police in both NSW and Victoria seem very reluctant to disclose the ethnicity of the attackers. Police in Vic particularly and i ask why? They must know.

I am upset that, by ommission, they allow all to think the attackers are anglo Aussies, when they may not be. In NSW it is now seemingly accepted that the attackers are mainly Lebs and in Vic there are strong rumours around that the attackers are mainly recent arrivals from Africa.

What about the victims themselves disclosing to all and sundry the ethnicity of their attackers and then we would know for sure.

The whole episode is similar to the situation at Cronulla beach where much anti-social conduct and bashings took place by Lebs and the authorities did nothing, despite complaints over many years. It seems some ethnic groups can get away with anything and have 'cultural privilege'.

Our weak governments seem to have instructed police not to disclose the ethnicity in certain cases, as it may upset certain groups.

Certainly young Indians seem to be the targets, maybe because the attackers think they are easier, but the whole thing needs to be exposed. I think the best source of information is from the victims.

Jayb "the original attack on the Indian students were perputrated by Ethopians students"

Yes maybe we should stop immigration from countries which have demonstrated unacceptable social values, maybe we should also remember the separation of India in 1948 was to stop mass murder between Hindu Indians and Muslim Indians.

Perhaps we should also remember that Indian Tamils have recently failed in their attempts to violently impose their will illegitimate against the Sri Lankan majority in Sri Lanka.

Maybe we could consider the inter-racial violence which exists still within different Indian religions and castes and ponder,

should we tolerate the attempts by Indians to circumvent Australian migration laws by coming to Australia supposedly for an education but with a real plan of never returning to India but "migrating" here instead and import Indian intolerances in to Australia.

Indians are being targeted, not because of their race, but because they are generally exposed - alone or in small groups, in bad areas, late at night. But, loath to pass up a chance to extract any possible advantage from the situation, they accuse Australia of racism in a bid to stir up attention and gain concessions for themselves. They demand special protection - what, a cop assigned to guard every single one of you? Get over yourselves, you're not the only people who get bashed and robbed in this country, and you're no more deserving of protection than anyone else. This whole "education" industry is nothing but a migration racket, and the sooner we shut it down and restore public funding to universities, the better off we'll all be.

Visit any prison in Australia and you will get a fair idea of which groups commit the most violence. Instead our pathetic media would prefer to highlight the injustices of these criminals in prison. I doubt whether any honest study would be aloud as to who commits the most violent crime. The pc media (especially National Broadcasters) will only let you know if its a white male committing the crime.
