CANBERRA, Oct 17 (Reuters) - A board game glorifying race riots that gripped Sydney's beaches nearly a year ago might be banned to prevent further violence, Australian authorities said on Tuesday. The game called "Cronulla Monopoly" invites players to "Win back Australia" by buying and selling land in the southern beach suburbs hardest-hit by clashes last December between white Australian youths and ethnic-Lebanese Australians. A far-right Web site promoting the game said it was "dedicated to all those who stood up for the freedoms of all fair dinkum (real) Aussies". "The board game for Aussies, commemorating the efforts of all those who had the guts to come along to the rally at Cronulla on 11th December 2005 to defend the Aussie way of life," it said. A "reclaim the beach" rally on December 11 last year sparked days of racial attacks by demonstrators wearing slogans such as "We Grew Here, You Flew Here" and "Aussie Pride". READ MORE..
