I hope the ‘huge’ audience watching ‘A Well Founded Fear’ on SBS last night weren’t as sad as the super-sucker, Phil Glendenning looked as he listened to (mainly translated) stories about what had supposedly happened to illegals who were sent back to Afghanistan by Australia six or seven years ago, after it was found that they were not refugees according to United Nations criteria.

There was absolutely no evidence that any of the people returned to Afghanistan were in any more danger than the rest of the Afghans who have stayed in their own country through thick and thin. Everything was hearsay, and the programme looked like a set up to keep a few peculiar Australians in work and travel. Not to mention the saps who watch SBS regularly. The woman who refused to accept a taxi fare from her ‘dear brother’ (Glendenning) was a real weepy, proving to SBS aficionados what a stoic, brave and worthy people the Afghans are; and rotten Australians won’t help them - apart from sending our soldiers there to be killed, of course, when the pit which is Afghanistan has nothing to do with Australia.

While the author claims that the programme, “… provides a harrowing insight into the consequences of Australia’s response to people seeking protection during the Howard years”, all but the SBS-brainwashed and self-haters would have seen it as a piece of disgusting indulgence on the part of a few sad sacks intent on venting their spleens and hatred of their own country: a country which allows them to serve up such rubbish, and whose taxpayers are forced to provide the means to do it.

Not surprisingly, the author is pleased to say that this SBS beat up is: “… a story of corrupt, and arguably illegal, practices on the part of some Australian immigration officials”, with absolutely no evidence – just tales from already untrustworthy people (illegal immigrants, found not to be refugees) and false passports and statements supposedly made by immigration officials.

The theme of ‘A Well Founded Fear’, this back-up article and the Edmund Rice Centre is one designed to twist people into hating their own country and people, and believing their warped, minority idea that Australia has badly treated people who have lied and cheated their way to our shores – often in hip-hop fashion, as it suits them - while the majority of the citizens in their countries of origin seem to manage the hardships bravely.

We can be sure that these stories will be “…told again and again” by minorities trying to aggrandise themselves with lost causes. Don’t be fooled by their claim to ‘right’ and ‘compassion’ – things they accuse the majority of Australians of not having – nor by their silly statements that our treatment of people trying to seek residence in our country by turning up in boats somehow “compromised our own humanity”. Despite the fact that we received many country-shoppers, most were accepted; we were much more lenient than the UN.

The pseudo compassion is all about a small bunch of bleeding hearts who crave the publicity: malcontents and losers who will always be with us because of our democracy, although they are themselves far from democratic.

I agree with all you said Mr Right.

There are any number of countries which Afghanis (if they are Afghanis) have to travel through before they get onto boats intent on the circumvention of Australian Migration regulations.

This is just another beef up from the bleeding hearts who just don’t understand the travesty of letting anyone jump the queue ahead of those who wait in camps around the world and quietly respect the declared process for refugee application.

But Mr Right..... wait wait.... it doesn't MATTER if it's all hearsay, second hand.. opinion.... gossip.....

What MATTERS is how much guilt can be piled on Australian politicians which is aimed at intimidating them into relaxing border controls, and opening this country up to untold numbers of aliens who bypassed many other countries just to come here for a better economic opportunity and of course, to contribute to the numbers of Green, Socialist, Religious or Ethnic Interest voters.

You see.. (I'm sure you know this) "Immigration" is never about people.. it is ALways about 'Politics'.

You just have to scratch a bit to see it.

When you consider that a Liberal member won her seat after a couple of recounts..and then only by the numbers of votes you have fingers and toes for..... you don't have to be brilliant to know that in such a seat, a couple of extended families of Afghans.....could make all the difference.

If the election was a cliffhanger, it is not just conceivable..it is VERY possible that those extended families could determine the next historical step for Australia by determining the outcome of a close election.

So.. let's not criticize the method of the SBS 'documentary'...let's cut to the chase and get to the REAL MOTIVES.

-Advancing ethnic interests over mainstream.
-Advancing political aspirations of minority parties such as Greens and Socialists.
-Altering the demographic balance in Australia in favor of achieving the first 2 points

What really upsets me is that some of the illegals that took over the Tampa actually got to Australia.

These people showed their gratitude for bring rescued from a sinking vessel by taking over the Tampa and ordering her to sail to Christmas Island. Thats right they hijacked the Tampa and, at least, some should have been charged with hijacking and piracy. None should have ever been allowed into Australia.

Not to mention their conduct while on our navy ship taking them to Nauru.

We do not need people of that calibre. Our government was totally weak.

I have no sympathy for these people. Our men are over there trying to make it safe for the citizens there and this lot care little about that.

It never seems to occur to those writing this rubbish, that if the Tampa had been allowed to continue to Indonesia and the rescue story told, the disaster of the Siev X may well have been avoided.

I was going to write a reply to yours. But then I thought, why waste my time - and yours?

This is one of your sillier posts. Read it again, dear boy, and see if you can spot the flaws in your logic.
