As what would appear to be the only real Aussie here, let me set you straight on a few things. Most of the refugees coming here (which I would gladly accept) are actually fleeing the Taliban, the brutal, vicious mdeiavel scum that they are. It is typical of conservatives and Christians (which our Tory Government is) to deny these poor, harrassed people sanctuary. Now, if the Afganis were good Catholics like the East Timorese, we'd have 7500 troops there in a flash. Luckily there is an election on Nov 10 and we can get rid of the racist failure that has been Conservative Government in Australia.

As I have family in Australia, I dont really think you have any right to 'set me straight'. Especially as we, took some of your, boat people. Most of the refugees coming to Australia are not from Afghanistan.
These tired harrassed people you claim have arrived I just recently saw protesting your government, calling for the destruction of the West, and committing a disproportionate ammount of crime against the young women of your country all because 'they dont have to respect non muslim women'.
You have obviusly neglected to assess the situation in your own country. Many of these refugees have just condemned your nation and supported vocally the Taliban. The same Taliban who you just called 'brutal,vicious, midievil scum'.

I think on this issue Johnny did the right thing and I don't believe he did it for political reasons. There has to be some limit otherwise it will be open slather and get totally out of control. Keep em offshore till they can be evaluated to make sure they are genuine refos and not just looking for a better lifestyle.

Sweet Jesus, don't tell me you're going to start hanging out here too.
