Minuet,
Yes rape is revolting enough, but stoning in a Western Country, (not to detract from stoning and burnings in the East) shows a terrifying loss of Western standards. Incase you haven’t seen the woman’s rights film Theo (Vincent’s grandson and Dutch national Icon) Van Gogh was brutally slaughtered by islamists for and Ayaan Hirsi’s comments on their reasons for make it. Here it is: Submission film http://ayaanhirsiali.web-log.nl/log/2292608 Even after Thos brutal slaughter this film was banned from a lot of Euro Art festivals incase it offended islamists. Ayaan’s opinion http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/womanshour/2005_50_fri_02.shtml Kaos, I’m interested to hear more of your thoughts, and thanks for putting us straight, basically you wanted your beach back right? I lived in Sydney for years and was always at the eastern beach’s as I’m right into snorkelling. I want them back to! What really freaked me the most was seeing the man from The Bra Boys in the supposed peace pact with the leb bikie gang the Comancheros, I didn’t believe it for one minute. I believe he was threatened into passivity. Also The Bra Boys Man being in talks with Keysar Trad, please read this to see who he’s dealing with, http://www.islam.org.au/articles/16/RACISM.HTM Also the training of 200 lebs as lifeguards after their retaliation rampage, I think it’s very wrong. As Jolanda said it’s raised the multicult oppression issue for all True Blue Aussies. Tubley, USA baseball caps, neither Ozzy Army or US Army wear baseball caps, yet Leyton (No.1 seed and Aussie champ) Hewit does, are u sure its not just u exercising your prejudice to something you dislike, as I do to islam? I have some very good American friends and feel a kinship to them after their help in the pacific with the Japs and I don’t like your opinion there, I hate the standard response of the left that the USA is naturally evil cuz its done okay for itself. Do you have a better “New Rome” in mind? Posted by meredith, Thursday, 26 January 2006 11:36:35 AM

Fredreich,
I'll make a deal with you, when you grow a brain I'll take whatever you say seriously. What say you? Davo, good point, but look back fitty years and the trends don't comply with your hypothesis. Let’s agree that the use of historical precedent can’t be selectively used whenever huh? Keith Thanks, but I think you'll find compliments go no where with our master of verbosity Col - a poke with a sharp stick keeps him awake. He set his rules of war long ago. I'm just complying.

Then it's time to change the rules and let's all heed Dirk's advice.
You know Davo asked you a reasonable question. It is one that is easily answered with, what you would find, a little effort. Many others wouldn't be capable of that. It would also raise the level of discussion. It's me who is verbose. :-) I have too much to say, too often. Posted by keith, Thursday, 26 January 2006 4:06:57 PM

Ranier,
Over the past few days I've noticed a few comments on blogs saying they've abandoned OLO because it's been swamped by hard right neo-Nazi types. I wondered how many people are like me - read the article, anticipate the hatred and vitriol, scan a few comments from the usual crowd foaming at the mouth then find something more constructive to do. It's just too depressing to think about how cruel some Australians have become, or perhaps have always been. Whatever. Then about a million comments ago you said your friends ask why you keep bothering and it made me feel bad for not supporting my own beliefs and leaving fellow humanitarians stranded in the toxic gunge here. Oddly, I also felt bad about the perception that OLO is being swamped by Pol Pot wannabees, which I don't believe. It's quite likely that it just looks that way because the white worriers are the first to respond to anything they disagree with, whether they read it or not. Then people like me switch off in disgust and leave people like you to fight it out on our behalf. I'm not sure I'm as thick skinned as you so I can't promise to help even up the numbers, but thought you'd be pleased to know you're admired for your guts. Just one observation on Friedrich (sorry if the spelling's wrong)I suspect he's less of a racist as such and more of a conspiracy theorist generally. If you look at the variety of referents he draws together to explain why we're all going to hell in a handbasket it's not simple racism. Very interesting character.

Regarding employment for 200 Lebanese men at beaches I will say that to be of blind justice and an example of the cowardly problem solving of government officials. Why is America such a world power? Well it’s not from being nice. It’s for fighting for what They believe in and not bowing before fellow nations and puckering up for a good ass kiss like John Howard and his lips that are permanently stapled to bushes ass [But that’s another story]). We should not reward the guilty. I know they were revenge attacks, But we did NOT smash hundreds of cars and bash people after asking their heritage. That to me says they aren’t proud or happy to be an Australian. In one breath it was “We are Australian and want to be treated no differently”, and in the next they are smashing our people and property. Truth Must Hurt, sad.
Morris Iemma, HA You dream of hard justice prevailing AFTER wars have begun and paddy wagons roll in is just that, dreams. There is no victory in those actions. Just issue’s that are pushed aside until the media have their next Expose Scoop and everyone’s attention shifts away. Rules have to be hardened regarding immigration. My biggest hate is the un-patrolled Australian Ocean Borders. I do not know exact stats but I know we patrol much less then we should. It’s is our security after all. (The Commenchero’s aren’t a Lebanese M.C but do have Lebanese Members Posted by Kaos, Thursday, 26 January 2006 7:51:28 PM

Have you ever considered the possibilty that you are always wrong? I believe you have set new standards in mediocrity.
Someone's son is assaulted and you think that is great.
It really is time to pack the bags and return to congoid land.
Do not pass go.
