By Thom Woodroofe, published 19/10/2012

Australia's successful campaign for the UN Security Council has seen a lot of wild ideas thrown around.

Yep, another disaster.

Bad enough that these fools have done so much to Oz detriment. Now they will have some input, no matter how small, in helping the UN stuff the whole world.

All this as an application from Rudd & Gillard for UN bureaucracy jobs, after we chuck them out. Their egos know no bounds.

Can you imagine Australia voting against the wishes of the international Zionist lobby? I can't.
This is a good win for the US/Israel power group, but I question if it has much relevance outside that.
Locally? With Marines in Darwin and drones known to have been flying out of Edinburgh, SA (still?) and, maybe soon if not already, out of the Cocos Islands?
We will vote as we are told to vote.
By rights the US should pay the 25 million it cost us to get the seat.

We are now all evolving into a more astute nation.So many now question our unbending support to the war mongerers in the USA and Europe.We got there [UN Security Council] because we sucked up big time and promised to back the USA in more wars aggression.

Israel has 200 + nukes and Iran is being attacked via sanctions and threats for peaceful energy generation?

The West's "New World Order" will not happen.Russian,China and NAM have their own thoughts on how the world will be organised.

Oh deary me. We actually beat Finland and Luxemburg! It cost millions
and millions and now our bureaucrats can preen their feathers and
live it up at taxpayer expense and think that they really matter.

What about those people who actually worked hard to pay the taxes
to afford all this? Piggies with their snouts deep in the troughs,
is what I think it is.

Meantime those same people, when it comes to doing something about
negotiating better trade agreements for Australia, have shown to be
pretty hopeless.

This is all pork for the ruling class, which is the administrators.

The results:
Australia 140
Rwanda 148

The costs:
Australia $23.6 Billion
Rwanda a fraction of the above.

The only question:
How do we go about hiring Team Rwanda?

Luckily SPQR, Australia costs were also a fraction of the above, 1/1000th in fact. Not that that would dampen your outrage at all, as I suspect any cost above $10 would annoy you.

I am beginning to see can see how peoples outrage is often informed by their dyslexia.
