Sheikh Shafiq Khan, president of the Australian Islamic Cultural Centre (R), embraces Reverend Dean Drayton, president of the Uniting Church of Australia (C) as Jewish community representative Jeremy Jones (L) looks on outside the Auburn Uniting Church in western Sydney December 16, 2005. A meeting was held urging calm after racial violence hit Sydney. Australia launched its biggest security operation since the 2000 Olympics in a bid to halt further racial unrest. Up to 1,500 police will take to the streets of Sydney this weekend to prevent further outbreaks of racial violence, officials said. REUTERS/Will Burgess
