By the late 1990s the Lebanese Australian community is being terrorised by a violent criminal minority enforcing the drug racket with extreme violence and handguns. On the streets young teenagers aspire to the glamour of gangster rap, many working as runners and dealers for the drug gangs. Part of a slightly older generation George Basha and the El Kheir brothers Sal and Sam know the young runners are on a path leading to jail or death. In 1998 14-year-old Korean schoolboy Edward Lee is stabbed to death when he walks into the wrong Telopea St front yard. The police hit back with raids and arrests of criminals across southwest Sydney. In 2000, around the time of the Olympics, a series of heinous gang rapes stir up the bigotry of the tabloid online and print media as an innocent community is outraged.
