However the smugglers and those Australian residents who give them oxygen have already drawn the benefit of world-wide headlines which leaves a lasting impression. That is a tactic used by all manner of activists and by the headline hunting Greens protest party as well. There is no way that those who ruthlessly and cynically played up the false 'torture' and 'ill-treatment' allegations will ever retract what they said and apologise.

All who make false claims should be deported forthwith.

OTB they didn't admit it or apologize when it was found out that they set up the inhumane killing of cattle in Indonesia. That was set up by the Greens hiring local yobbos from the village to kill the beast. They bribed the foreman to let them in on the weekend & film the atrocity. The same was done in a Egg Farm in Britain. There they got prosecuted.

Makes you think doesn't it. They'll do & say anything.

The Navy deserves a 'highly educated apology'
Fair enough the boat people had been through an ordeal, and were upset at being turned back. Despite being well aware of this likelihood from the very beginning of the exercise.
Those who responded with violence, were treated fairly and professionally. Both Governments should be very pleased that civility was maintained.

( The young man with the allegations against the officers, did he have a mobile phone in his possession?) Just referring back to my first post.
