After two days of clashes between the Lebanese and Anglo communities in hotspots along Sydney's beaches, this was the first case of an attack on religious - rather than ethnic - grounds.To these Muslims, this has ALWAYS been about religion.

A church in Macquarie Fields, also in Sydney's west, was damaged in the early hours of yesterday morning, suffering minor fire damage Why do I get the impression that the media are understating the case? I doubt that only this church has been targeted by the Muslim "yoots".

The Lebanese Christians are not participants - they're victims.

Let's see:
Muslims can't get along with Thais.
Muslims can't get along with Australians.
Muslim Lebanese in Australia can't get along with Christian Lebanists in Australia.
What have I left out?

Keep him and the rest of the Aussie Christians in your prayers.

Archbishop George Pell has warned gangs of Middle Eastern descent not to target Christmas celebrations, after families were abused and gunshots fired into cars at a primary school's carols night in western Sydney on Monday.
Cardinal Pell said the attack in the multicultural suburb of Auburn, where Lebanese Muslims are believed to have turned on Lebanese Christians, was "apparently motivated by religious intolerance". He said: "I am deeply concerned about the targeting of Christmas celebrations at schools for students as young as five years old. KosovA/AustraliO spelling bump!
