Watching those men bash up the channel 7 camerman made me so angry too- but so did the fact that two muslim women recently shopping in chatswood were completly ignored while looking for clothes. Not only were they completely ignored, but the other sales assisstants were so obviously rude to these women and however insignificant an incident like this may seem- im sure it is not so insignificant when you are on the receiving end. Watching the way my fellow Australians read the Daily Telegraph "HOLY WAR ON AUSTRALIA" headlines and to then see how this somehow interacts and impacts on the way they go about their daily lives makes me sick to my stomach and very sad- We are painting all Muslims/ Arabs/ Persians with the same brush here.

You name one race, religion or group who is not persecuted by others.

We all are, what about the Aboriginal who is victimised because shopkeepers assume he was up to no good? Or the white guy who can only get so far in a friendship with another culture (eg. Taiwanese) who are skeptical/suspicious of white people?

We can talk about instances all day, but winging will not do anything to change it. If it is so hard to integrate into a mild counrty such as Australia, it will be even harder to integrate elsewhere.

Roll with the punches, and i bet you will come out defiant and on top. If Nelson Mandela can do it, on a very small scale each of us can in this far more sympathetic environment.

Regrettably, millenniums pass by and nothing much happens at global scale between Muslims and Jews.
