Last year, it was Aboriginal rioting in Sydney. Now it's 5000 drunken white guys attacking any Australian they think looks kinda Arab. Followed by the requisite looting and vandalism, of course. Australian Prime Minister Howard was quick to step up:

"I do not accept that there is underlying racism in this country."

Yep, at this point, I think you'd have to call the racism overarching.

As I verified the time of the Aboriginal rioting, I found this "news" account. Apparently the American monosyllabic right has exported AM radio overseas.
