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 kind of tech 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 smashed every single car straight, got the shovel of his truck through straight through our bedroom window. i was

absolutely love. it's never been before and 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 a bus stop and searched and searched in the car. and the cops just said, in a nice way, i get the f ada, he get a new 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 like he is 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

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 them. we started to get a lot of have maps early monday morning start up the right information coming to the police. that there was going to be some retaliation and some violence towards kimber mosque. ready 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 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. 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. i was at the corner of the 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

our member 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. and we're not gonna let him. 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,

get from me and bring him home and i would need to got in it. and they would have been thousands and thousands of people public 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 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 i 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 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 off limits. well remember it came time for prayer and it was like this came what he pleases, pray. that will actually come everyone down me and it, it, it's only be 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 knee by 7 by 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. supremeville view south swells was contacted and we told them what we should be done on the 15th of december, yourselves was parliament was recalled for one session to

into itself. turns back on us, train them, and bunker down in some sort of sage. others see it as a cathartic moment. which demands and engagement 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 in the police. 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 a criminal 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 lebanese in particular them. 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 of dividing them. and from that point on, you start to see a lot more energy put into rebuilding the fabric of australian society. 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
