    WOW so much wrong with this documentary, many facts skipped and a lot thing taken out of context to justify their view. What a waste. i will give a little more of the back ground about the conflict to explain how out of content their view is, with out pulling apart the documentary and this incident. It been going on for over 100 years the on going clash people in western Sydney and surfer in east coast of Sydney. the first recorded in Bondi Beach in 1907 and as time goes on the demographic in western Sydney changes. The names of the groups change in the conflict but fights on the beaches continues. in the 1970's it was the woggs (Italians) vs surfer in 1990's it was the hommies vs surfers and in 2000's it was the lebs (Lebanese) vs surfers. This kind of conflict is not uncommon in cities around the world with in-lander vs surfers. but this is not a valid reason for both parties to start brawls / riots.
