Subject: Australians fight back
Australian police to get power to quell race riots
By Mike Corder
ASSOCIATED PRESS
December 14, 2005
SYDNEY, Australia -- Lawmakers agreed yesterday to meet in an emergency session to grant police new powers after two days of racial attacks on people of Middle Eastern descent.
The racially motivated attacks have spread to other Australian cities.
Police were out in four times their usual numbers last night, stopping dozens of cars in the Sydney suburb of Cronulla -- where an attack Sunday by 5,000 white youths against people they thought were of Lebanese descent sparked two nights of race riots.
Simmering tensions were blamed for more recent racial incidents in Perth, where a group of white men threw eggs and taunted a family of Middle East origin, and in Adelaide, where a taxi driver was punched and injured by a passenger yesterday.
On the Gold Coast in Queensland state, text messages targeting ethnic groups aimed to find recruits to attend a demonstration this weekend and to start "cracking skulls," Australian Associated Press reported.
The rioting began Sunday on Cronulla Beach when the youths -- rallied by neo-Nazi groups and cell-phone text messages -- attacked people thought to be of Arab or Middle Eastern descent in retaliation for an assault on two lifeguards earlier this month. Police fought back with batons and pepper spray.
Carloads of young Arab men struck back in several Sydney suburbs Sunday and Monday nights, fighting with police and smashing the windows of stores, homes and parked cars. Nearly 40 people were injured and 27 were arrested in the melees, police said.
In an attempt to keep the peace, lawmakers in New South Wales, where Sydney is located, will meet tomorrow to pass laws giving officers tough new powers to crack down on rioters, including ordering bars to shut and erecting roadblocks to effectively seal off suburbs, New South Wales state leader Morris Lemma announced.
Mr. Lemma said he would urge state lawmakers to pass legislation increasing prison sentences for riot offenses. He also said police would be given "lockdown" powers to stop convoys from forming and driving into communities to carry out acts of retribution.
Mr. Lemma said rioters had "effectively declared war on our society and we won't be found wanting in our response."
Beyond New South Wales, Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio reported yesterday that a family of Middle Eastern origin was attacked the previous night in the western city of Perth by 11 white men who threw eggs, shouted abuse and kicked their garage door.
In Adelaide, a taxi driver of Lebanese origin, Hossein Kazemi, was injured yesterday when a passenger punched him. Police said there was an argument over the fare, but the victim was taunted about the riots in Sydney because he was of Lebanese origin.

Lazio fined for neo nazi symbol
Wed, 14 Dec 2005
Lazio were fined €8 000 on Tuesday for letting their supporters show a neo nazi symbol in the stands at the weekend but striker Paulo Di Canio was not punished for making a fascist salute.
The Italian football federation however has opened an inquiry into the player's actions on Sunday in the away game at Livorno.
It is not the first time Di Canio's politics have landed him in hot water. In March he was fined €10 000 for giving a fascist-style salute at the end of the Rome derby two months earlier.
Livorno were also fined €20 000 for a series of problems including the throwing of a small firework at the Lazio team bus as it entered the stadium.
Games between Livorno and Lazio are always tense because of the political leaning of the clubs' supporters. Livorno have always had a strong left-wing following, while Lazio supporters have links to the far right.
The match, won by Livorno 2-1, had Lazio supporters chanting slogans glorifying Italian dictator Benito Mussolini and Livorno supporters replied with Italian revolutionary chants.
Livorno fans waved communist flags with the hammer and sickle emblem, while Celtic crosses (a popular symbol for the neo nazis especially as the swastika is banned) were spotted in the Lazio enclosure.

Neo-Nazi group uses riot to promote cause

YOUNG neo-Nazis infiltrated the riots at North Cronulla beach to promote their cause.
Photographs by The Daily Telegraph show a woman proudly holding up a poster which reads "Aussies fighting back!"
The poster, which bears the Eureka insignia adopted as a symbol by white nationalist groups, advertises the Patriotic Youth League.
It also has the details of post office boxes in Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne and Brisbane.
Founded by former Newcastle student and One Nation activist Stuart McBeth in 2002, the league describes itself as a "radical nationalist" group and is widely considered to be a neo-Nazi organisation.
It has links to the German-based skinhead group Volksfront and the like-minded British Nationalist Party and the New Zealand National Front.
According to the Queensland branch website -- the national website has been blocked by the hosting provider -- members "must be strongly opposed to politically correct ideas such as nondiscriminatory immigration".
Previously the league has launched campaigns calling for the deportation of immigrants and keeping foreign students out of universities.
The league's spokesman, Luke Connors, said he had been forbidden from commenting on the riots or the events leading up to them.
"There's no official statement to be made by the Patriotic Youth League on the events of the young Arabic boys (sic)," he told The Daily Telegraph. "I've been given instructions not to say anything."
Mr Connors did not say who had given him the instructions or why.

TOLEDO OH USA -- National Socialist Movement supporter Molly Nolan gets escorted out of the rally by police after protesters started yelling and throwing horse droppings to her in front of the Government Center, where the National Socialist Movement held a rally Saturday, Dec. 10, 2005 in downtown Toledo, Ohio.

Police Keep The Peace At Ohio Nazi Rally
JAMES EWINGER
Cleveland Plain Dealer
TOLEDO - The neo-Nazi rally had sound and fury Saturday, but no voices could truly be heard.
Roughly 700 law enforcement officers kept the estimated 63 National Socialists and 170 counter-protesters so far apart that the two sides could barely see each other, much less exchange taunts.
Toledo Police Chief Michael Navarre said 25 adults and four juveniles were arrested, most of them counter-protesters. Two were photographers, one for the weekly Toledo Journal.
He and Fire Chief Mike Bell said there were no injuries or property damage. But one protester said he was shot with a stun gun and poked in the eye. Others were shoved to the ground while being arrested.
Most of the arrests occurred as journalists and citizens mingled across the street from the neo-Nazis, who had a permit to rally for two hours on the steps of the state-owned One Government Center, seat of many city, county and state offices.
Reporters questioned some of the arrests at a late afternoon news conference because some of those detained appeared to have done nothing. One was a man with no media affiliation who had walked into an area set aside for reporters and photographers.
Navarre said some were arrested for earlier acts, some for inciting others to riot during the rally and some for crossing police barriers. That included Journal photographer Jeff Willis, the first arrest at the rally site.
The rally started 40 minutes late, at 2:40 and ended a bit before 4 p.m.
Col. Paul McClellan, superintendent of the State Highway Patrol, said that after the rally the patrol escorted the neo-Nazis to the interstate and told them not to return to the city or they would face arrest.
Lucas County Sheriff James Telb said the display of overwhelming police power was essential to maintaining peace and avoiding the upheaval of the neo-Nazis? last public appearance in October.
The ad hoc force included mounted police ? some from as far away as Athens, Ohio ? deputies from 12 other Ohio counties and one in Michigan, and a large contingent of state troopers, because the rally was on state property.
The sheriff also rolled out a Vietnam-era M113 armored personnel carrier, but the tanklike vehicle was not used. Navarre said law enforcement had at least two snipers on the scene.
Shanta Driver of the National Women's Rights Organizing Coalition shouted that the police presence was nothing less than a show of support for the neo-Nazis, because they were being protected while the protesters were being arrested.
"They spent half a million dollars to protect people who are murderers," she said.
Navarre said at a Saturday morning news conference that preparations had been under way nonstop since the October riot in North Toledo, when the neo-Nazis announced their intentions to return. The FBI assisted with intelligence gathering, and three aviation units were deployed, he said.
The October march sparked a four-hour riot that ended with businesses burned and looted, and bricks thrown at police and an ambulance driver. The violence scarred the city, prompting leaders to examine race relations and efforts to combat gangs.
The neo-Nazis said then that they wanted to protest gangs and rising crime in one Toledo neighborhood. This time, they said they wanted to protest how police and the city handled the October confrontation.
Officials expected problems in October, Navarre said Saturday before the rally, "but we don't have those high expectations today."
Toledo Safety Director Joe Walter said the city got a court order Friday barring the neo-Nazis from Toledo neighborhoods because the residents had been upset the demonstrations were permitted in their neighborhoods.
Navarre said community leaders told him, "You keep 'em out of our neighborhood, you're going to be OK.?
The chief said the judge gave officials the power to arrest anyone ? neo-Nazi or counter-protester ? who ventured outside the cordoned-off area around One Government Center.
Jeff Schoep, a neo-Nazi national leader from Minnesota, said in a telephone interview Friday that the restraining order changed nothing because his group intended only to rally in front of the government building. Schoep said a hundred members were expected, from Florida, Virginia, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Washington state and parts of Ohio. Navarre said Ohio neo-Nazis had told him to expect up to 80 of the members.

Most Iraqis oppose presence of US troops: poll
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12 (Xinhuanet) -- Most Iraqis oppose the presence of US troops in their country and less than half say that their country is better off now than it was before the Iraq war, according to a new ABC News poll released on Monday.
More than two-thirds of those surveyed oppose the presence of troops from the United States and its coalition and less than half,44 percent, say their country is better off now than it was beforethe war, according to the ABC News poll conducted with Time magazine and other media partners.
As many as 26 percent of those surveyed say US forces should leave now, and another 19 percent say troops should leave after those chosen in this week's parliamentary elections take office.
Surprisingly, the poll found that three-quarters say they are confident about the Dec. 15 elections and more than two-thirds expect things in their country to get better in the coming months.
The poll was conducted by Oxford Research International with 1,711 Iraqis from Oct. 8 to Nov. 22 this year.

Subject: homo bs from Britain
LONDON, Dec. 12 (Xinhuanet) -- Figures released by the British government have shown that one in 16 Britons is homosexual, bringing the country's total gay or lesbian population to 3.6 million, local media reported on Monday.
This was the first such figure released by the government, the Daily Telegraph said. It meant that six percent of the population are homosexual, it said.
A spokesman for the Department of Trade and Industry said that the figure was based on a number of studies by different interest groups, as "fundamentally there is very little reliable information about the size of the lesbian, gay and bisexual groups."
"It is to my knowledge for the first time the government has released a figure of this sort, but it does come with caveats," said the spokesman.
The government has estimated that by the year 2050 around 3.3 percent of homosexuals aged 16 and over will be in registered civil partnerships, compared with a third of the heterosexual population who will be married.
A new law allowing gays and lesbians to build partnerships is to take effect in Britain on Dec. 21.
The law gives homosexual couples the same property and inheritance rights as married heterosexual couples and entitles them to the same pension, immigration and tax benefits.

Crown wraps up Internet hate-crimes case
Edmonton Journal
Published: December 12, 2005
The prosecution presented its Internet hate-crimes case against an Edmonton man this morning by filing documents the Crown alleges to be anti-Semetic.
Reinhard Gustav Mueller, 62, is being tried on a charge of wilfully promoting hatred through an Internet website.
He was charged in June 2004 after police came across a website containing anti-Jewish essays. Police were investigating a complaint he made about Molotov cocktails being found outside his building.
The Crown wrapped up its case in just one morning in court by filing documents taken from the Internet. The prosecution called no witnesses.
Mueller is to present his defence Tuesday. He is acting as his own lawyer.
The case, being held in Court of Queen’s Bench, will go to a jury Wednesday.
It delves into a relatively new area of promoting hatred over the Internet.
Although there have been a number of hate-crimes prosecutions, only a few have involved posting material on the Internet.
Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel was deported to Germany after a long history of distirbuting anti-Semetic material through books, brochures and on the Internet. He has been charged with hate crimes in Germany.
Former social studies teacher Jim Keegstra was fined $5,000 for teaching his students in a central Alberta high school that Jews were an evil group spreading an evil religion and trying to take over the world.

UK Author, Broadcaster, Subjected to Police Inquiry for Criticizing Homosexual Adoption as “Homophobic”
By Terry Vanderheyden
CAMRIDGE, UK, December 12, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) -- A British author and broadcaster was the subject of a police inquiry after she criticized homosexual adoption in a live radio broadcast.
Lynette Burrows, a pro-family advocate, described the reaction to her comments as “sinister.” In a Radio Five Live show on the new civil partnerships act, Burrows said allowing a same-sex male couple to adopt a boy posed as much of a risk as allowing two heterosexual men to adopt a little girl. “It is a risk,” Burrows said, as reported by the Telegraph. “You would not give a small girl to two men.”
The police initiated an inquiry after a member of the public called complaining that her remarks were “homophobic.” The police contacted her the next day to tell her that a “homophobic incident” had been reported against her.
“I was astounded,” Burrows said. “I told her this was a free country and we are allowed to express opinions on matters of public interest. She told me it was not a crime but that she had to record these incidents. They were leaning on me, letting me know that the police had an interest in my views. I think it is sinister and completely unacceptable.”
Burrows is the author of Fight For The Family and the mother of six children.
Commenting on Canada’s passage of its homosexual hate-crimes law, Bill C-250 last year, the Catholic Civil Rights League (CCRL) said that numerous assurances given by lawmakers that the new criminal charges would only apply to the most obnoxious or severe critics of homosexual behaviour seemed rather weak in light of efforts to limit the freedom of commentators around the world. CCRL outlined several examples where speech was curtailed because it was deemed hateful:
- In 2003, the Rt. Reverend Dr. Peter Forster, Anglican Bishop of Chester, England was investigated under hate crimes legislation and reprimanded by the local Chief Constable for observing that some people can overcome homosexual inclinations and “reorientate” themselves.
- In January of 2004, Swedish Pentecostal Pastor Ake Green was prosecuted for “hate speech against homosexuals” for a sermon he preached last summer citing Biblical references to homosexuality. He was acquitted last month by the country’s Supreme Court.
- Belgian Cardianal Gustaaf Joos faced a lawsuit under that country’s discrimination laws for his remarks about the nature of homosexuality and the Church’s teaching published in a Belgian magazine. (CWNews.com, 01/26/04)
- Cardinal Antonio Maria Rouco Varela of Madrid faced a suit in Spain for preaching against homosexuality in a homily he gave in the Madrid Cathedral on the feast of the Holy Family. (Washington Post, 01/03/04)
- And In Ireland, clergy and bishops were warned that the distribution of the Vatican’s publication on public recognition of same-sex relationships could face prosecution under Irish incitement to hatred legislation. (The Irish Times, 07/02/03)
Previous Canadian Catholic Civil Rights League President Tom Langan commented, “Are such expectations misguided? It remains to be seen. We have seen comments from leading Canadian gay advocates such as Rev. Brent Hawkes of the Metropolitan Community Church in Toronto in which he suggested last year that Vatican statements or a Catholic bishop’s commentary on homosexuality are ‘expressions of hatred.’ We suspect Canadians will soon discover the extent of the new peril imposed on their freedom of speech only after they receive that knock on the door to answer to the authorities.”

re: Those Yankee Secessionists
Posted by Thomas DiLorenzo at 06:51 AM
Regarding Ryan's comment below, the northern abolition societies in 1860 claimed about 2% of the adult population as members, which is probably an overstatement since all political organizations try to exaggerate their numbers. The overwhelming majority of northerners wanted slavery to remain in the south because they were deeply racist and feared the prospect of black people coming to live among them and competing with them for jobs. That's why they cheered Lincoln's famous Cooper Union speech in New York City: In it he pledged that the Republican Party had no plans at all to interfere with southern slavery. That brought on wild cheers according to numerous accounts.
The second most important thing to northerners was that slaves also be prohibited from the new territories so that they, too, could be an all-white nation. Lincoln himself said he wanted them preserved "for free white labor." That statement also brought big cheers during his Cooper Union speech in NYC.
Northerners opposed the extension of slavery into the territories because they were racists and labor market protectionists, not because of Lincoln's stupid and ridiculous theory that slavery would somehow disappear over the next fifty years or so if it was first banned in the territories. All you have to do is read what these people were saying at the time, not what court historians like Jaffa, McPherson, Goodwin, Holzer, and all the rest of the modern Lincoln Cult says about it.
William Lloyd Garrison may not have realized it, but northern secession would have broken the economic back of slavery far more than banning it from the territories could have. A slave in Virginia would only have had to escape to Pennsylvania to be free, and there would be no federal bounty on his head (courtesy of the Fugitive Slave Act, which Lincoln supported). There would have been a flood of escapees, forcing Virginia to do what New Englanders did earlier, and simply end the institution for economic reasons. Then North Carolina, and South Carolina, all the way to the Gulf. Jeffrey Hummell explains this in his book, Emancipating Slaves, Enslaving Free Men,and I think he's right.
Ed. Note: Yes, white men fear black men competing with them for jobs. The black man's ability to work is legendary. DiLorenzo has done good work exposing Lincoln and his mythmakers, but he has the usual libertarian fear to address 'racism' head on. As decentralizer and Southerner Jefferson knew, the two races are irreconcilable. 'Racism' is simply self-protection for White men given a bad name by jews who mean to eliminate them, literally and physically, whether through miscegenation or murder. Libertarians have nothing in their ideological or character quiver to shoot back. We have repeatedly written to DiLorenzo to ask him why, in light of all evidence, White racism is wrong, but he fears to reply.
