Yeah. Little known fact is that South African apartheid was based on laws in place in Queensland. Until 1967 'abos' were classified as flora and fauna and to be honest, things haven't got much better.

Great online Australian magazine called the 'New Matilda'. Incredibly backward country,

You should go just to see how these 'Abos' behave. You think pikeys are bad....

He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

For similar reasons I wouldn't want to holiday in Turkey due to their treatment of the Kurds and other minorities.


To be honest, that's the exact reason I want to go. I find Israel and its treatment of Palestinians (among other things) so morally reprehensible and barbaric, that I want to go and confirm for myself that I'm spot on with what I'm continuously banging on about.

How is making a comment about their behaviour racist?

So racial stereotyping isn't racist?

I watched the 3 part Al Jazeera documentary (I think it's a good few years old) on the Yom Kippur War over the last day or so, it was absolutely brilliant.

I've always had a fascination about The Vietnam War, but lately I've watched a good few online documentaries on The Yom Kippur War, The 6 Day War and what happened those Israeli athletes in Munich in 1972 etc all were gripping viewing to say the least. 

How The Mossad operated really intrigued me, what happened in Norway was a shock mind as prior to that they seemed immune to making mistakes. 

Any hidden gem books or documentaries out there anyone could let me know about, as you would rarely if ever see anything about these events on TV.
