Increase in the phenomenon will increase the support for the burqa's banning, it just so happens that more Muslims are coming from Iraq and Syria, in the process bring the tradition with them; it isn't nessecarily about the race, moreso about the fact that is becoming increasingly common. That is sickening but I doubt it is common among Australians.

Not a common occurrence but bogans and a fair amount of the underclass are still very racist. There have been quite a number of assaults on Muslims and Indians in the past few years. It doesn't stop that Australia is a very xenophobic nation.

Well, not all bogans are racist, I lived next to some in fact; however, I get what you mean, this could be due to increase in competition for jobs, in cairns jobs were hard to get without new people.

I'm pretty sure it was Lebanese men whom attacked the Indian students in Melbourne; the attacks on Muslims however, wasn't because they were of a specific race (although that may occur) but because they're Muslim.

What? Our immigration policy is supposed to bring the people whom can contribute the most to society.

I wouldn't say as racist as American Police Officers, but Australia is more racist than New Zealand. Overall Australia is an amazing country, borderline role model.

Countries in and of themselves can't be racist.

Irrelevant? It houses the greatest Nation known to man, Slovenia, it was also the front stage for the set up of WWI, it was also a place that Tito captured all of Stalin's assassins and told him to quit acting like a child like a bad ass. Not as irrelevant Plus Balkans puts a couple hundred miles between ISIS and mainland Europe (North of the Balkans)

1,396,774

One million three hundred ninety six thousand seven hundred and seventy four americans. That's how many people from American died in WWI, WWII, Greek Civil War, Kosovo, and Bosnia. Youre telling me the Balkans is irrelevant?

The Balkans was the start of WWI which cost 320,518 American lives, The Balkans had a good part of WWII as far as Soviets, Italians, and Germans attacking and Tito was responsible for recovering numerous transport and fighter pilots and crew members who were shot down and landed in Yugoslavia, and returning them back to US Forces. Greece is at the tail end of the Balkans and cost a few Americans their lives as well as Kosovo and Bosnia especially when it came down to shot down fighter jets that belonged to and flew US insignia. Balkans is pretty relevant to the US maybe not as relevant as England and France or anybody else but it's relevant enough.

It is indeed a sad day when you've exaggerated the quote so much that the proportions of the overreaction are akin to the size difference between a moose and a mouse.


Agreed. Problems in Europe and the US notwithstanding, in Australia over the past three years, Three people have been killed by terrorist attacks. Count them, Three. (not counting the perpatrators.)

Massive overreaction, and frankly, I really think the level of fear is exageratted by Hanson, Kruger etc, people still walk down the streets no problem. But Turnbull playing too it is hardly surprising, Howard did it too the last time Hanson had influence.
