Giving multiculturalism a bad name
So, the Gillard Government, starting with the PM herself, is already distancing itself from a taxpayer-funded study which claimed that celebrating the centenary of ANZAC could be divisive. This shows that the Gillard Government is not suicidally stupid

(2) - We don't care about Rachel Corrie because she signed onto an evil cause (probably imagining it to be a good cause, but people should research these things before they put their lives on the line) and then stupidly sat down in front of a BUTTONED-UP MILITARY BULLDOZER which was demolishing a house, thus getting herself killed (amusingly, not crushed by the bulldozer, but killed by falling rubble from the house). This is sort of like someone demonstrating in favor of the Nazi regime in 1943 and flinging themselves in front of a Sherman tank expecting it to stop on a dime.
(3) - Aside from the trivial logical point that there is no law of Nature mandating only one party to a conversation can be a "racist," I've noticed over the years that you are much more likely to condemn whole cultures, ethnic groups and races wholesale because you don't like a particular person or group of people from these groups than is Rory. Also, crying "you FUCK!" doesn't make your point any more true. It just makes you look like a petulant teenager.
(4) - I don't even remember nor have I ever heard of this "Tajik girl" save from you mentioning her. I'm not sure why you believe that Rory thinks killing 9-year-old girls is ok, unless of course she died accidentally in the course of legitimate and justified military operations, in which case her death is sad, but hardly a war crime. I'm also not sure how you imagine a war could be prosecuted without the occasional death of civilians, and I note that you don't give a damn how many civilians die, even if they were targeted by their killers, as long as the killers are a group of which you approve or their victims a group of which you disapprove.
You know Australia's infested with skinheads ...
Oh, really?
... and somehow I don't think they're willing to overlook ethnicity because they share a common enemy with you..
Somehow, I don't think Rory cares what Austrlian skinheads think of her, any more than I care what American racists think of me> My policy is "They can think what they like; if they take it to insults I will insult them back; if they take it to violence I will fight back and try to make them very sorry they attacked me.
This is the way self-confident, brave people think. You should try it some time, maybe you'd be less of a creep if you did.

Drow, on a 9 year old Tajik girl brutally murdered by skinhead filth: Seeing as I am not Muslim... this is not a concern for me and mine.
Remember when Drow said anyone who wasn't Asian or white lacked brains, value for education, and value for hard work? Of course you do, even if you don't remember it too well, since you wrote a pretty impassioned defense of it by saying Drow also said some Asians were brainless and had no respect for hard work and education?
Yeah, I know she hates Indonesians and Malaysians too. White supremacists have no love for Slavic people, I guess that means they're not racist either.

The Palestinians are anti-Semites whose official leadership actually allied with the German Nazis during World War II, and who still officially admire the Nazis. That's right, Yama, the group you sympathize with is one of the survivals of the WWII Axis.
If anything, they're more like the Poles, because the Poles were the ones occupied by a militaristic quasi-theocratic state.
Actually, the analogy with the Nazis continues here: after defeat in World War II the Germans were occupied by the Allies and Soviets. Israel is a liberal democracy, like the Western Allies, not a "quasi-theocratic" state.
The analogy ends here, because the West Germans (the ones fortunate enough to be occupied by liberal democracies) were sane enough to realize that they had been defeated and that they had to appease their conquerors and focus on building up something new and good rather than carying on the fight for something old and evil if they wanted a happy future. By contrast, the Palestinian Arabs are engaged in a hopeless quest to regain something they NEVER HAD (political independence), which will inevitably lead either to their expulsion by Israel or their subordination to other victorious Arab groups.

I have absolutely no idea about what you are talking: I have never seen the original exchange, and I do not trust your precis of it.

No, because that is neither what she said, nor what she believes. I read her original statements there, and you are seriously (and I would guess intentionally) misquoting her.
I do remember when you claimed that neither Australia, nor France nor Germany had any culture worth admiring, because you said it right on this thread. In almost exactly those words.

Indeed, had Napoleon III been more competent, or Wilhelm II's older brother lived, our view of Germany as a nation might have far more to do with brilliant scientists, erudite scholars, skilled engineeers, life-saving doctors and titanic industrialists than with goose-stepping storm troopers. Heck, even after World War One, had Germany found saner leadership (quite possible, as Hitler was a rather random-event dependent person), we might today be praising the role Germany played in holding back the expansionist designs of the monster Stalin and saving Western Europe, rather than blaming her for shattering the Peace of Versailles.
