What on Earth are they thinking??
Todays News quotes:
"The Federal Government will consider sending Australian troops as part of an expanded United Nations peacekeeping force in Lebanon.
The UN Security Council has adopted a resolution calling for an end to fighting between Israel and Hezbollah.
The resolution also authorises the deployment of 15,000 new peacekeepers."
How can they? So far the Australian Government has stood in support of Israel's right to bear arms and attack innocent civilians in the next country. They have repeatedly backed the United States position on Israel and taken the soft approach to the fighting... too chicken to speak out or up against the travesty being committed.
BUT HOW CAN WE EXPECT ANY BETTER FROM A GOVERNMENT PREPARED TO SEND INNOCENT WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND MEN INTO DETENTION ON A FOREIGN ISLAND???
"The Bill, under which all asylum seekers will be processed offshore, passed the Lower House yesterday, despite three Liberal MPs crossing the floor, and one Liberal and one National MP abstaining."
The problem is why can't they come to Australia? They are certainly welcome here in our great Land Donbovawitthegunma. The more the merrier. Each person brings skills of one sort or another. Each person is welcome. We have space. What is the Australian Government so scared of???
Will the next boat-load/plane-load of refugees be Lebanese?? Doesn't that take us back 30 years... ???
Food for thought!
