Why Oz Govt racism & land grab?

Jess - your scepticism and indignation are well justified. 
 
The circumstances of Indigenous Australians are appalling and are reflected in horrendous 9,000 avoidable Indigenous deaths each year out of a population of about 500,000. 
 
There is clearly an urgent need for Indigenous Australians to have the SAME local/state/Federal government-supplied services enjoyed by all other Australians i.e. adequate police, security, law, justice, education, zero school truancy, no public drunkenness control, nurses, docotrs, clinics, schools etc.  
 
The Government has NOT supplied ANY of these so far except for 500 General Practioner health checks for 500 Indigenous children - and in return has expropriated Indigenous land for 5 years (may be permanently), suspended Land Claims for this period, taken over scores of remote Indigenous communities, vilified these same communities WITHOUT NUMERICAL DATA and used attendant hysteria to justify race-specific aboliton of human rights and breaching of the 1975 Racial Discrimination Act. 
 
There must be zero tolerance for racism. The world is watching. The world applied sanctions and boycotts against racist Apartheid South Africa (racist Apartheid laws; Government controlled bantustans and townships; avoidable national death rate 0.4% in 1993) and may well do the same against racist white Australia (suspension of Racial Discrimination Act for NT Aborigines in violation of Internationally-agreed Conventions; annual death rate of NT Indigenous Australians 2.0%).
