Ha ha my sista. This is the test they should administer.
Now what is this nonsense about Howard calling for a referendum on Aboriginal sovereignty?
Please see this BBC article:

Kia ora brother, Howard is full of shit and is trying to cover his racist arse after bashing the African/Sudanese communities last week. Birthday is next week and I'm looking forward to my mothers & aunts cooking thats for sure

Salaam my sista Ana. I just read in a South African newspaper that Howard is calling for an election.
This other article also raised the issue of his 'offer' to Aborigines.

By the way, on the 17th we are tallying our Boycott petition numbers, and I will put a report together to send to Howard, and embassies.
I trust you are well.
Peace and struggle,
Ridwan
