Racism: a media driven propaganda to hide real racial hatred?
Is racism a media driven BS designed by certain factions to hide real racism?
Certainly racism by the Australian judiciary is rife and institutional
Denial of Racism by High Court Australia is Holocaust Denial

SOme of the recent attacks on Indian students in Oz were labelled as racist attacks by the media in India, even though clearly as a few students pointed out, that the motive was not racial at all. What started out as a term to describe discrimination based on a person's skin colour attributed to his race has taken on new forms through the years. Media hype it distorts every just view in favour of sensationalism. I read the article, and though I don't really doubt the occurence of the holocaust, I also agree its very odd to make it illegal to question it.

Indian Media feeds on sensationalism. Everybody -educated and still with common sense know it.
The attacks on Indian students in Australia by teenagers- again adolescents- is not at all racist. Teenagers with physical changes happening within them, simultaneously exposed to violent movies, video games, are a confused lot and seek thrill in doing vague things and also need quick bucks to satisfy their urges -the source now being Indian students or taxi drivers.
Indian media raising hue & cry over this matter is showing its lack of professionalism. When an Indian doctor, Muhammad Hanif was jailed for terrorism charges, Australian media stood behind him as a rock of defense and helped in securing his release. Then, where comes the question of racism?
The case needs attention of Australian authorities over the parenting needs of the nation, and then the careful consideration of Indians in Australia over their own security, as advised by Australian police. Even in India, if you move at night, you are not safe. There are numerous cases of BPO employees, traders looted, raped or murdered. The motive behind these crimes and the ones committed in Australia resemble each other.Most of the criminals are just adults or late adolescents.
So, the question is that of crime not of racism.
Holocaust is always notorious for the killing of 10 million Jews but people often forget that 2 million Serbs, 2 million Poles, 2 million Russians were also killed by the Nazis. I do not deny holocaust but certainly denounce the crimes being perpetuated in its name in the World today!

yeah good discussion.....
the jewish lobby wants 6 million not 10 million jewish deaths for the Holocaust....
rather semantic 
Now my question to you is why are white cops getting off scott free for the deaths of aborigines in custody??
this sort of dogwhistling to the redneck elements emboldens youth to act out against foreigners.

The problem we have as Human beings is that we always blame our faults on someone else or something else. Racism is very real and if we are honest with ourselves most of us have at one time or another been guilty of racism in our thoughts and maybe even in our actions. like it or not, the media is a reflection of the people. We just need to find ways of dealing with these issues without pointing fingers at one another.
