Thanks for clearing that up

The Australian: We're not a bunch of racists, PM says [December 13, 2005]

I mean, John Howard himself is probably a racist, and at the least he's an immigrant-basher. And we're talking about Australia, where you have scholars who talk like this in the newspaper:

Dr Mark Lopez, author of The Origins of Multiculturalism in Australian Politics, said locals in the Sutherland Shire, in Sydney's south, had taken "a lot of shit" from Muslim youths...

"The Lebanese gangs and the Aussie hooligans draped in flags are two sections of the community that haven't been touched by the ideology of multiculturalism."

Actually, that's kind of refreshing.
