Race: Australia: Violence swings back against few "MidEasterners," to rage en masse

I don't know how good my headline is journalistically (nor for attracting a "Direct Hit" from a new visitor - that would be (in my case particularly it would be in some very vague sense only: ) commercially. What I didn't have to mention in the cramped space for composing the headline, is simply that my idea's verbal line of thawt may be parsed out somewhat adequately in my wording of the headline; and rather, en reverso, the headline condenses this idea's full and complete ensentenced lingual articulation (sorry for the jargon, but a theory's peeping thru):

The longer version: A few people of a minority population committed a violent racist act, a group of young whites (ruffly speaking, of course, as who knows, there just may have been a Chinese person or Aborigine among the otherwise rather white, and White-minded, group which then went on the attack) replied with its own increasingly-massive racist attacks. Some White-ist cults gathered to this "action," coming from all over the continent, like flies to "the meat of the matter." Apparently, some of the minorities produced fiteback units of their own. Which happened first, I don't know - except that raw idea is mentioned without development of thawt in Mike Corder's Associated Press article, "Aussie police to get power to quell race riots," Dec14,2k5, Washington Times. For the detailed story, click my headline above this blog entry.

As to the pendular waves of the overall exfoliation, the developmental steps seem to have been these: A race-defined war between some "MiddleEasterners" (minjority) and some Whites (the total number of whom adds up to a small percentage from among the many-millions majority-racial demographic - White! - in Australia). But: It's actually a small percentage of all Australian whites that itself can aggregate to a much larger raw number than the number of those in the targetted "other-than-white" minoriy/ies involved. Certainly, the all-media news reportage, also in Australia, of the daily tides of the "MiddleEastern/NorthAfrican" rioters rampaging simultaneously in widely separate French cities and regions, all this en/im-mediation had it's effects and affects in the imaginary, (l'imaginaire, the French say of the whites gone wild - the news story, thus, and its visualities become an ordered and continuitive existence in the minds of many of these youths on both sides of the two-way-but-uneven violence. A-n-d, in the minds of some older eggers-on, I'm sure (speaking sociologically).

Oh hell!, Australia has had it smallest faultlines cracked open to confront it with the unconfrontable!
