Boaz, here you have a direct response to your "ONE NATION,ONE RACE, ONE CULTURE", which is turning into "Ein Reich, ein Volk, ein Führer" right in front of your eyes.

JSP1488 tells us:

>>If you don't like our flag, go back to where you crawled out and see if the leaders there are indifferent to criticism of their symbols.
White people unite and save a White Australia!<<

Subtle.

Note very carefully what got us to this point.

The press picks up an angle and screams "they're dissing our flag, they're dissing our flag." Truth - or at least, accuracy - has already gone out of the widow.

Other columnists put in their tuppence, until our sensitive Prime Minister leaps on the bandwagon, (without checking any facts, of course) and suddenly we have a classic "us and them" story to fire up the rednecks.

Arjay weighs in with:

"We are at war with ourselves for the first time in over 200yrs.Looking at past track records in the Middle East,it will not end well"

Now that's a considered analysis if you like.

Boaz contributes:

"lack of Government initiative in demonstrating that we are a NATION, and in promoting unity and homogeneity absolutely results in the fringe/fanatical elements of the segment feeling alienated and losing identity coming up with outrageous ideas like "kiss the flag or we will punch the stuffing out of you".

Lack of government initiative? Howard talks "One Austraya" at every opportunity.

And Leigh advocates, it would appear, mass murder:

"We've seen "ethnic cleansing" in other countries. It's long past the time when we should have started cleaning out the Australia fifth columnists who so much hate and despise their country."

But maybe that is what you have in mind for a "government initiative", eh Boaz?

I just came across this little piece and thouht I'd share it with you.

"Just on the flag issue, what happened to the old flag ettiquette? Rules like “The flag should not fall or lie on the ground or be used as a cover”? It seems that the new acceptable way of treating the nation’s symbol is to drape it over an aggressive bogan, soak it in beer, trample over it, probably get a bit of splashback on it in the portaloo, followed by the odd drop of blood from someone of “middle eastern appearance”. But hey, its Australian, and no one can do wrong with a piss (both types) soaked soiled flag wrapped around their red necks. Submoronic racist scum are the flag poles of century 21 it would seem. Do they get a Nelson bung of $10,000 if they hang around schools in their chic Hansonesque garb? You can get arrested for burning a flag, but not for making it stink of grog and bodily fluids. That’s respect."

Exactly.

Rache, what is your problem? Are you stating that I'm uneducated? Or are you being introspective?

In the military there are very strict rules that govern the use of flags.

Other protocols include -

• Flying Alone
• With other National flags
• With State & House
• On Yardarm or Gaff
• In Processions
• At Half Mast
• On a Boat
• On a Coffin

If drunk, possessive bogons wearing to flag as a threatening symbol of white Australian supremacy is what those who are pro flag at the BDO are on about, they should at least be up front and say so.

Pericles,you had better get used to it.It is us and them.Very little in the Muslim philosophy appeals to me.The West and Muslims are worlds apart.This is a totalitarian facist belief system wrapped up in the guise of religion.I see no difference between this system, than that of the Nazis.

If you want to make peace with those who will destroy everything we fought for during WW2,then do so without without innuendo of the rest of us being ingnorant,alarmist or racist.

Yes Cronulla has brought out the White Supremistists who stupidly want to turn back the clock,but the people of Cronulla have been putting up with racial and physical abuse for decades from Muslim Gangs.Very few seem to mention the violent revenge attacks where Muslim Gangs bashed and knifed people.

Why do we not see violent Buddhist attacks from Vietnamese who suffered at the hands of Australians and Americans?

The answer is in the belief systems.One teaches forgiveness and being open minded,the other is the exact opposite.
