What do you expect from a buncha convict spawn?

Maybe now that the Aussies see that they have police doing mostly what was done in Abu Gharib , they may more easily understand how crap like this happens. Too much authority too little supervision too little gray matter.

During that incident, one of the seven WA officers, who are all from the Fremantle district, was allegedly assaulted by one of the American Notre Dame students and had a tooth knocked out.

Excellent.

So it begins. Americans the new soccerball of those who love to commit hatecrimes.

I think the PM should apologize to all Americans. I think that's how it's done these days - at least when an American f-s up somewhere.

Thanks, Bush and Dummy Rummy. Because of you, were now the most hated group of people on Earth.

I recognize that it is a fraudulent coalition, but Australia is a proud member of the powerful force that invaded Iraq. The Aussies have 850 troops in Iraq and promise to send more. I, for one, am grateful for their sacrifice and their contribution.

Australia is a major American ally--and one that makes a significant contribution toward the war on terror given its population. One hundred thousand Australians have died fighting in alliance with American troops, mostly in the Second World War.

So please don't whine about the Aussies; they're not whiners. Sure, they have a few bad apples, but they're behind us--and we should be behind them.

I want photographs.

So you're going to smear all Aussies by what a few uniformed idiots did?
Consistency would require that you apply the same to the prisoner abuse in Iraq,
and, I assume, condemn your American self for what our soldiers did.

Go zot yourself, troll.
