Peter Reith, the former Howard Government minister who was a central player in the 'children overboard affair', has been confirmed among the line-up for the return series of SBS’s ‘Go Back To Where You Came From’.

Mr Reith will join musician Angry Anderson, actor Imogen Bailey, writer Catherine Deveny, former radio ‘shock jock’ Michael Smith and former Commonwealth Ombudsman Allan Asher for the series, which will be broadcast in August.

SBS Managing Director Michael Ebeid said the first series of ‘Go Back’ set a benchmark for the network and it would again provoke debate about Australia’s response to the issue of asylum seekers.

“These participants each have strong and passionate views, with many being well-known for their position on these issues,” he said.

“Seeing how they experience the confronting situations they encounter, and how they challenge each other, is going to make for compelling television.”

The series will once again be shown in three parts, with a special episode of Insight, hosted by Jenny Brockie, to follow its run.

Among a range of honours, ‘Go Back’s’ first series was awarded the coveted Golden Rose for Best Program of 2012 and Best Factual Entertainment program at the prestigious Rose d’Or Awards in Switzerland.

My question is this.Has Islam caused this much trouble in the modern world?The tv series has shown nothing but dire consequences for the peoples affected by the spread of Islam.SBS has virtually damned the religion by their documentary.
