Anth.
Here ya go buster done me bloody best mate. Hope you get it!

Bless Australia I say… (by a perceptive Migrant).
I come for a visit – am treated regal
So I stay – who cares illegal?
I come to Australia, poor and broke
Get on bus see man power bloke
Kind man treat me really well there

Send me down to see Welfare
Welfare said “Come down no more
We send the cash out to your door”.

Six months on the dole – got plenty money
Thanks to working man – the dummy
Write to friends in Vietnam
Tell them “Come as fast as can”
Hey all come – in rags and sampans
I buy big house in suburbans
They come with me – we live together
Only one thing bad – it is the weather
Fourteen families living in
Neighbors patience running thin
Finally whites move away
I buy their house too – I say
Find more Cong`s – house I rent
More in garden live in tent.

Send for family – they all trash
They all draw more welfare cash
Everything is going good
Soon we own the neighborhood
Now on quiet summer nights
Go to temple – watch the fights.

We have a hobby – call it breeding
Baby bonus keeps us feeding
Two years later big bank roll
Still go manpower – still draw dole
Kids needs dentist – wife needs pills
We get free – we got no bills
White man good, he pay all year
To keep the Welfare running here
Bless all white men, big and small
For paying taxes to keep us all
We thank Australia – damn good place
To damn good for white man race
If they like yellow man
Plenty room in Vietnam….

Marilyn – you say that ‘locking up refugees is the Aussie way’ and then no doubt wonder why many Australians would find that claim to be offensive. Illegals are ‘locked up’ – because they have attempted to enter Australia without documentation and in many cases have destroyed their ID. Why would genuine refugees do such a thing? I would imagine that genuine refugees would be only too happy to prove their claims. You can’t possibly be suggesting that Australian authorities simply accept their stories at face value – can you? Releasing them into the community before their cases are settled will result in the same debacle as in the UK where thousands of ‘asylum seekers’ simply disappeared and were never heard from again. A recipe for disaster.

Question: how has John Howard used ‘vilification and racism’ to justify Lib policies? Can you give concrete examples?

Australia is not blowing up any country that I know of, even ‘for the hell of it’. Hicks elected to join an organization of Islamic fanatics who would force you into a burkha and cut your throat if you resisted – why the personal sympathy for this traitor?

‘He would be rolling and spinning in his grave’.

My father and his 3 brothers also fought for the freedom of Australians, one of my uncles on my mothers side was on the Kokoda Track. They would most certainly spin in their graves to see some of the recent imports to the country they fought for – rabid Islamic fanatics who admire beheading and loathe Jews, hate literature targeting Australians being sold in the community of people we accepted into this country as ‘refugees’ and immigrants

Last thing - some real history of contemporary, living people. Oh, and yes, they are on our "team".

I have seen the enemy - and he is us. This thread cements it.

HOW JIMMY CARTER AND I STARTED THE MUJAHIDEEN

Interview of Zbigniew Brzezinski, Le Nouvel Observateur (France), 1998

QUESTION: When the Soviets justified their intervention by asserting that they intended to fight against a secret involvement of the United States in Afghanistan, people didn't believe them. However, there was a basis of truth. You don't regret anything today?

BRZEZINSKI: Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter: We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam war. Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow had to carry on a war unsupportable by the government, a conflict that brought about the demoralization and finally the breakup of the Soviet empire.

QUESTION: And neither do you regret having supported the Islamic [integrisme], having given arms and advice to future terrorists?

BRZEZINSKI: What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the cold war?

QUESTION: Some stirred-up Moslems? But it has been said and repeated: Islamic fundamentalism represents a world menace today.

BRZEZINSKI: Nonsense! It is said that the West had a global policy in regard to Islam. That is stupid. There isn't a global Islam. Look at Islam in a rational manner and without demagoguery or emotion. It is the leading religion of the world with 1.5 billion followers. But what is there in common among Saudi Arabian fundamentalism, moderate Morocco, Pakistan militarism, Egyptian pro-Western or Central Asian secularism? Nothing more than what unites the Christian countries.

Mark thee well.

Lots of interesting comments ...but,
What would the Yanks do if Australia did a similar thing to one of their citizens :- took him to a Communist Country and locked him up for years with a very belated charge, and no fair trial?

Why, they'd turn those nuclear warheads in our direction and say "Johnny, you will let him go - wont you?"

Hey Anth and M.
Now I have got a question.

What is a racist?

Is it somebody who does not wish to see their own country and culture lost?

If So Then I am gunna print some T shirts reading PROULDLY RACIST.

Bet I would sell a few too.

Helping others is the greatest feeling known to man kind.

bUT when those you have helped start telling you what to do in your own counrty and start to change laws, such as bibles in hospitals Santa parties for our kids well its time to find another leaky boat to return them from where there came where there is no welfare or stupis Ausies who help them undermine OUR country and OUR laws.

Sighned
PROUDLY RACIST.
Oh and David Hicks prefers to be fighting for Islam so leave him there or drop him off in Iraq to fight.[ Against us of course] After all hes got a right to choose sides which he did.

Wendy - it's an interesting point that David Hicks converted to Islam, changed his name to Mohammed Dawood, went overseas and joined the Taliban, a rabid organisation full of fanatics who murdered anyone who resisted. He wrote letters home telling his father how he hated Jews and how much better the world would be under Islam. Fair enough. His choice.

But when he was captured, the whole story changed - he once again became David Hicks and sought help and legal representation from the country and system he had rejected. Obviously, the sharia law that he tried to impose on others didnt help him much.

This guy is a double turncoat - first he turned on Australia, then he turned on hardline Islam. He rejected us, but we are supposed to fall over ourselves helping him. If he had not elected to fight with the Taliban, he would not be where he is today.

A bit like the Prodigal Son, except most Australians do not wish to emulate the father. Hicks is an Australian in name only. Put him on trial by all means, but why people here are wasting their sympathy on him is beyond me.
