In case people were wondering if Sydney had ‘gone quiet’ and there would be no more Islamic style raids, be assured it is business as usual. The Middle Eastern Squad were doing their duty and went to check on caches of arms in the predominantly Muslim populated Sydney suburb of Auburn last night [8/9/09]. Naturally they found an assortment of guns and drugs in the four homes they searched on Cumberland Road Auburn. However, one the residents of the houses did not like the arm of the law being extended to his ‘lifestyle choice’ and punched a police officer in the face. Then the Middle Eastern residents of the houses called on their Middle Eastern mates to come in large numbers to the street and so too did the police call on large numbers. Huge crowds gathered and there was a ‘more than Mexican’ standoff with the crowds of Middle Eastern citizens facing down members of the police.
