Given that you are a lecturer in law I would have thought that writing a critique is the very easy bit. So, how about you spell out how the law should be applied? Mindful, of course, of the political realities.

Incidentally, you do not show clearly in your article that the High Court of Australia had a choice: it could have allowed the executive to make a subjective assessment of the facts on the ground in Malaysia as opposed to its choice which involves the Court making an objective assessment of those conditions. In other words who should have the power to determine the suitability of a destination for asylum seekers,the government of the day or the High Court of Australia?

You could write that article yourself Seneca.

What part about the "agreement" being NOT LEGALLY BINDING don't you understand *Seneca?*

Thus, your comments are without reasonable basis as it is irrelevant as to what the conditions on the ground are.

..

Additionally, in recognition of this, *Geelar et al* are trying to get new legislation up which specifically states and makes ammendment to the existing legislation such as to not require such agreements to be legally binding.

Get it?!

Incidentally, I have a good friend from Malaysia, both ex military and ex UN and he demonstrates a shockingly sneering, snarling, and unashamed attitude to Human Rights (except his perhaps)

..

I would also cite the case of the abused Princess, recently rescued from the pig monkey monarchy of Malaysia by Bazza Obama et al.

It appears from subsequent reports that the Malaysians are not of the view that they have done anything wrong, but the N.American regime accepted her Asylum application and sent her home to Indonesia.

..

Of course, Indonesian workers allegedly have their Human Rights abused on a daily basis by the Malaysians, as well as others, and tensions in recent times have on more than one occasion escalated to near open warfare.

It is a shame that international opinions are largely hidden from the Australian populace by the media, otherwise you would be more cogniscant of the depth of the Malaysians depravity.
