it's trillion men, a gathering in punch ballpark. i looked outside the window, my own house. i saw one car to car 3 car, 4 car and 2, i saw the whole park show the boys just ready to retaliate. revenge with anything when they might on the night of the riots. come out, sunday is a high school student living with his parents across the road from the park. i was angry. i guess the angry to your email. 100 times he's the boys guaranteed outside my house in front of punch puck, something i've never seen before. come out little brother, hattie, it's just 10 years old at the time. if the riots that intuitively understands the crisis where police are about to faith bozier for the full oxide 1015 minutes to

come. very no, no swearing, no music, no nothing. it was very come, but you could say the boys are angry, they came all met up together. you had one place car that was coming up the street from the back of punch road. and once the police came, that's when they have on john beckham, they cause the father to leave one more one and yeah, over in a few minutes still gone to la. i was in the car with a young guy who had a serious weapon on him. and to actually be in the car with somebody who was ready to use a powerful weapon was scary. the at the time of the riot mohammed ca boatley isn't. he's a conditioning apprenticeship. and he's quickly swept up in the call for revenge to a guy who, who was to kill. and once we left,

we went from, from southern southern, around the corolla area, looking for trouble even the most, the most articulate and the most intellectual people in our community was filled with outreach. because how much can someone like before the clock? the 2 pm, dozens of car streaming towards chronology seeking revenge as probably the revenge attacks that were most shocking to people. because almost like the why the public could understand young y'all been drunken australian racism . what i couldn't envisage was this boarded candle kite on dozens of cars. would basically march on the east. nothing like that ever happened in australia, in history. the gangs of men, the middle east, and origin,

buying the rebate. it was office. the 1st time i saw a video about a man walking down the street and people of lebanese backgrounds, they come in and attack him. i caught me. i just could not believe my eyes could have be me and granada or someone else looking down the street and punishable by 9 pm. the police have sit up roadblocks all around granola and the convoys of cause, still pouring in change route by the side. tactically,

to simply avoid corolla. now let's go to an easy place to get into. whereas the eastern beaches much more open and much more available to a sort of wide spread scattered con, attack. and people peel off. they're angry and i feel empowered our to, to what the hell my lot once they've been attacked in such a scarless and remorseless way, they feel that own bits are off. they can do what they want. by 10 p. m, the beach side of brighten the fans in the rubric are under attack. the shocking violence continues into the early hours of monday morning. straight full of live in a drive. i just jumped out to my husband. chuck a lie. the night mashed every single car straight, got the shovel of his truck through straight through our bedroom window. i was

actually, i was never been for fun. you know my life. but i remember thinking all that's really stupid. what. what good does that do? how. how does the call being damaged? solve anything. we got to river and we got pulled over by the police. they were asked to get out the car, put up against the bus stop and searched and assisting the car. and the cops just said, in a nice way, i get the f ada, he get any carts, your luck, you know, go home. it's a relief from the 100 and for nina, his future wife. i was really shocked that my was one of the guys that went down. i knew because it's really out of character for him luck. he's really a much more logical than that. but at the same time, i can really understand i can put myself in that position. i can understand being

an 18 year old guy whose whole world is falling apart because people will not stop picking up every bit of you. when i go home, i thought about how stupid i was and how stupid we were something serious could've happened to myself or to somebody else. and it could've been yeah, an incredibly bad thing for me growing up. i could've destroyed me. ok me. ah. sunrise the next morning. a nation awakes in shock. he's yes, a writer drain a drunk and right. they have to apologize. that's believing. he has a terrorism to blame. investigate as a seeking several males of middle east in a hero, some from my room, with my ties, like a was really going to think me

the next day when it ended, it's like any other day kids went to school. i went to work. but when you deep down the emotions is boy like thing we started to get a lot of have maps. ah. the early monday morning start after the right information coming to the police that there was going to be some retaliation. and some violence towards kimber mosque. denny mccarty is a lebanese, a strain in senior, comfortable in the new south wales police and is still reeling from the night's events. i was quite disappointed to being devastated at the retaliation because i was hoping we'd be better than that. i was hoping that the members of our community wouldn't get sucked in to you know,

putting the show on the other foot. it reside with me that we need to keep close eye on the tension. and so i tend to the most very early the mosque stopped me very well. i've been working the fees. and initially there was absolutely no problems. but as the hours went on, the, the crowds began to swell. and very quickly, there were thousands of people down there. and what was interesting was that the people that were starting to come down there definitely went over and let me background a myriad of cultures. so those greeks italians, different types of europeans as falls. the atmosphere is increasingly volatile. our, that to corner of bunch of road and i was talking with the police officers. and you could feel attention. you could taste the anger. and you could anticipate to focus on,

remember that evening sitting at my parents place and they live on the white silicon was and sort of like you'd see people zooming past young people running out of cars and all that sort of thing. these are young people, not only middle east and but also muslim, normal, non arabic, whatever you, whatever you want to say. it was probably actually the most multicultural looking had been asked. somebody said what's going on. he said, i haven't heard that. you know, the gangs are coming down here. they apparently want to come and burn the most damp . one lit up, then high school teacher. she had did that 2 of his brothers are in the crowd outside the mosque. i thought, my brothers, my brothers are there. and before anything else, my family's, my son pointing to me, i'm going out farmer brothers,

i'm going to buddy game from re and bring a minus. i would need to got in it. and they would have been thousands and thousands of people. public campbell mosque where we estimate more than a 1000 people have gathered. that is obviously of some concern to believe. the corner of mol, on notice freelance photographer. and within an instant, you could see the members of the credit spotted him and like a mob, i just steer towards it. i've just sprinted ahead of the crowd and gone straight to him. i'm just asking him something and give him the car and get out. he so he's got in the car and driven off and i'm feeling pretty good about myself that i've got rid of that situation. but i've looked over my shoulder and i've noticed thousands of very angry people know who they had someone else to base the frustrations and i've just run towards me. so i've said to myself, ok this, this'll be the last day for me on us and say quick praying just bryce for impact

and other me watching the status of the people running towards me. all of a sudden like a like a, like a wave it i just stopped members of the mosque had from the human chain all the way around me and my shield me from the bulk of this raging force of the crowd. within about a few seconds. i started to hear the most beautiful sound in the world, which was police sirens coming in from every way. and i remember turning to a colleague and i said, that's how thank you for the ease of hard work at this mosque. and that's a day that i remember that's the day that the communities have my life, me, bright light, and it all was it. it was people who know most alarm and the talking to i priest. though people who were of all fights of all communities and just what are you doing

or defending the mosque, but it was like they had weapons and things are going to fit in the most. your men, of course i didn't think you'd even raise your hand in anger. but it was like this night. holy places are off limits. well remember it came time for prayer and it was like this came what he pleases, pray. that will actually come on down me edited itself. surely people dispersed me, but as they struggled to contain the rage of the dispersing crowd, community leaders fear the worst. while i know from people will talk and they actually have armed himself during the day. and i was quite alarmed by says they have bought all baseball bats. there was a lot of guns out there. and i was very afraid by 8 pm, the crowd is still fuming and large groups gather at

a nearby station. yeah. 9 p and it's clear that the horror of the night before is about to be repeated. least it was on the move. the 2nd strike 9. the next morning community leaders make calls to the police and new south wales premier on you. we need to act or we need to act a quick otherwise we will not be able to contains a situations. the premium of new south walls was contacted and we told them what we should be done. on the 15th of december, yourselves was parliament was called for one session to

actually pause the new legislation of locked down the peninsula in lockdown. hundreds of police stopping vehicles coming over the reduced into south alone. child can report to you that the police will step up their efforts to bring the bags on. props who are responsible for those nighttime attacks, to justice the tough new law and resulting the biggest police operations since the sydney olympics, with 2000 police setting up roadblocks on major roads going into chronology and over major beachside suburbs. unfortunately, somebody allegations took place, but i'm italian just could have been thousands the some people think it means that the muslim lebanese community is going to withdraw

into itself. turns back on australia and blanket down and some sort of sage others see it as a cathartic moment. which to mom's name gage meant after years of separation and mutual antagonism the future african knowledge is going to be very difficult. ah, as the new year dawns, the horrifying events of december 2005, still reverberate among community leaders. and i think anyone who saw the level of anger and venom that was sort of coming out of the series of events that became known as kamala arrives, was very disturbing at the end of it all. i think some good came of it in a sense of everybody having to step back, take a deep breath and say, we don't want that to happen again. carmella is

a turning point. the government realizes that it can't allow a continuing demon isolation of muslims. the muslim communities more widely in the liberties in particular him. so they have to re engage with a lot of society, the community and chronology, and the shire realizes that they have to stop building bridges. people are looking far more for ways of bringing people together than dividing them. and from that point on, you start to see a lot more energy put into rebuilding the fabric of a strain in society. ah, we saw that we really need to be proactive into building bridges between our community and the shire communities. we needed to get them to know us who we are, rather than read about us. we concentrated on to open up the most

to do barbecues, to invite people to come along. there was a big transformations at that time following criminal offense. 3 months after the riot, a new bond between wider and arab, a stray lawyer is formed on cornell, a beach working with the 3rd lifesaving association and chronology shy council. the lebanese is straight in community launches and initiative called on the same wave race, the whatever we train, some muslims in becoming lifesavers. ah, ah, in 2011 al jazeera gains rare access to the young gang film academy. and some of north korea's brightest young stars. ah, what did it take to serve
