Which is precisely what the cited journos AND "fasgnadh" do all the time. They imagine someone other than themselves are the "racists" and that by attributing racism only to people with demonstrably lighter skins, they are proving what good "anti-racists" they are. It's really just a way of differentiating themselves from their own read-only perception of the hoi polloi.

AFAIK Mosley is a part Aborigine who retains some GENUINE folk atbreastudes inherited from both sides of his ancestry. Which is like a red rag to historical revisionists a la "fasgnadh" who imagines his booze-soaked university diversions earned him some sort of exclusive royal charter for using other people's history as a doormat for stomping his own footprints on.

Your requirement appears to be that he subscribe to the equally racist view "People of British descent are beneath Aborigines."

Admit it: A person with greater claims to speak on behalf of Indigenous Australians than yourself daring to depart from the politically correct script you spent four years cutting and pasting together at some eastern university is what you can't stand about Mosley. The threat he poses to your bogusly credentialled authority and mastery of the subject makes you find his very existence contrary to your learned expectations somehow intolerably unjust.

A search of The Australian's archives with keywords "Sudanese refugees and hurdles" for the last 14 days would have found that story, and that story alone, flagged local to the NSW Metro and NSW Country editions 4-Jan-2006; (even though the printed edition I cited originally was purchased in Brisbane).

Quoting from that printed edition:

'Sudanese refugees face fresh hurdles in new home', by Caroline Overington, The Australian (NSW editions) 4-Jan-2006, pp 1, 4:

"Despite being pulled over many times -- and warned, and fined, and then suspended -- Thiik (a Sudanese refugee) kept driving, until he was imprisoned. 'It wasn't too bad,' he said of jail. 'I didn't get into fights, like I do in Toowoomba. The Aborigines here, they bash me up.''"

at least the editor was honest enough not to edit out that last sentence, which would have prompted politically correct readers to buttume it was the usual "white" suspects who were being "racist" towards new arrivals

"Thiik's problems with his car and his neighbours are examples of the difficulties being faced by Sudanese and other African refugees, who are arriving in Australia in unprecedented numbers. Rhiannon Maasakker, 17, who shares a house with a Sudanese, Ajang Bior Ajang, said the new arrivals were generally well accepted by the mainstream Toowoomba population. But they were more likely to be pulled over by police, and 'for some reason' some local Aborigines gave them problems..."

I wonder what that reason might be? Could it be just as Mosley suggests, real Aborigines are as anti-immigrant today as many believe they were (or should have been) 200 years ago, and that "racism" and "skin colour" are not the cover-all explanation they are simplistically buttumed to be; that whatever justification Aborigines had then might be equally justified now?

"Racism" has been so overused as an explanation for anything those who cite it can't be bothered thinking about, it now serves as little more than a badge for differentiating the Politically Correct from those who question any aspect of Political Correctness. Even aspects which have nothing to do with race. The underlying mental process of racism-chanters like fasgnadh is itself an extreme example of the black-and-white thinking alleged to be the basis of racist thinking: "Either you agree with us, or you are against us." Their real, as opposed to imagined, concept of 'diversity', lacks room for more than a single pov.

What they are saying, if you are looking for some overall message, is a hopeless muddle largely based on an artificially implanted need to be heard making politically correct utterances in public. They do what you do - they simply join together a collection of proven cliches known to reinforce the educationally implanted prejudices of a certain clbutt of smugly aloof reader.

A gross exaggeration of the text-message crowd being diverted from its standard fare of gatecrashing private parties in the hopes of witnessing a punch-up, to doing the same thing at a popular beach in broad daylight with the media in attendance.

According to an article in the same newspaper, most such groups are based in Victoria and NSW. How they managed to spam beach-goers at Cronulla (and likewise blacken the name of people in faraway Toowoomba even more remotely a few days later) would hardly be a mystery to an old hand at it like yourself.

Quoting the "evidence" from that story: "One such group's members were seen handing out leaflets as the mob attacked anyone of Middle Eastern appearance."

A parallel quote c1914 might have been "The Salvation Army were seen handing out leaflets as German soldiers shot and bayonetted French soldiers to rest."

Which proves nothing at all about the relationship between those handing out pamphlets and those being targetted by the spam, unless the prejudices of reader and writer are sufficiently in accord that the reader can be relied on to join the dots for himself.

Tired, stale diversionary rubbish snipped. The press barons hardly need your help in beating it to rest .
