quick summary - alleged bashing by lebanese/middle eastern people on two volunteer lifeguards so Sun was to be a day of 'Australia' - ended up in a massive riot/ beatings of people who 'looked' middle eastern, mob rampaging through the streets - still more unrest since then.. reports that SMS messages calling for similar scenes in other states...
