At the risk of seeming racist or anti-Muslim, why do Afghans, Syrians, Iraqis feel the need to leave Indonesia the largest Muslim country in the world to come to Australia the land of infidels?

Why don't the refugee advocates want a more selective refugee policy than throwing the doors open to 1000's of Muslims when we know the majority can't assimilate?

Better to nip it in the bud and be called names by the lefties. In the future our children will be thankful Australia didn't follow the mistakes of so many European countries that would now like to turn back the clock.

so many European countries that would now like to turn back the clock.
sbr108,
I remember saying this to people back in Europe in the 60's as a teenager. Of course I was ridiculed just like it happens here now 50 years on.
I left Europe because of PC & now it's entrenched here. There's just no getting away from morons is there, every country has them. If only intelligence were genetic. How about some engineering in that field ? It'd beat indoctrination hands down.

Individual,
<Fathers, sons, brothers, who are trying to forge a life for themselves and their family.> At me and my families expense. That's crap mate. I fought three wars for what I got and we get and I'm damn sure I'm not going to allow some unstuck politician, who wouldn't know one end of a rifle from the other, or some socialist bluger, who couldn't punch his way out of a paper bag to defend himself, tell me I have to share with Islamic fundamentalists and their brethren.

Poirot,
Let the stand up and fight for what they see as right in their own country. They run away and the the "bullies" win by default. If they get killed at least they had a go. Look at Syria.

Sooner than later Islam will take over Australia as it will the world. Why help their invasion along? We should at least try to prevent it happening.

otb,

"Why just men?"

Because I was discussing the "men" imprisoned in a badly run detention centre on Manus Island.

"You have given excuses for all manner of evil deeds in all sorts of circumstances."

".....where your ideology is concerned the ends justify the means."

Strangely enough, the above description perfectly describes the little coterie gathered here to demonise asylum seekers and "put them in their place".

"At the risk of seeming racist", sbr108 there is no risk with me being possibly seen as racist, you are totally racist. Keep up the "good work" I can see you going places in the party, you will make under fuhrer before you know it.

Poirot - Like usual you fail to respond to my comments now if you are unable please just say so, otherwise I can only conclude you have no counter argument. Here it is again.

Poirot - Quote "If you cage men up in atrocious conditions"
WHO are you trying to kid, the conditions are MUCH BETTER than the UN give in Africa and to the Syrian refugees plus they don't have to cue in the hope on getting a small meal etc.

Only a few are the ringleaders, they need to be weeded out and deported.

Quote "Nothing excuses a supposedly civilized and cultured first-world country of treating fellow humans inhumanely." YOU have to either be a refugee yourself or an advocate, They were told there claims would take up to 5 years to be processed, a lot are just plain scum who have a mindset of ENTITLEMENT unless they get what they want they show there true colors.

To quote you further "How would you like to be treated like this because you've decided to flee to safety?" What part of "ECONOMIC REFUGEE" don't you understand. They were safe in Malaysia, also Indonesia also the other countries there tourist visa took them through.
