Poirot, Manus atrocities? A bunch of arab stand-over men who attacked the police with rocks and racial abuse?

Prosecutor Poirot,

It has obviously escaped your attention --that's one of the downsides of only viewing things through one jaundiced eye-- but your whole case hinges on this << Australia is prohibited from returning people to any territory where they have a well-founded fear of persecution...>>

And it was established ON A NUMBER OF LEVELS that there was no WELL FOUNDED FEAR OF PERSECUTION --just a WELL CULTIVATED DESIRE FOR ECONOMIC ADVANCIEMENT.

So, Sorry prosecutor case is thrown out!

Weird !
The UN HCR website has a page of concern about handing over at sea of
asylum seekers, yet the sidebar has a list of videos and article links
on how happy many are to be returning home to Sri Lanka.
They are returning from India by the ferry load.

This cannot be reconciled against the outrage being shown here.
One has to ask is this another example of Abbott Abbott Abbott !

Of course, one expects nothing less than manic barking by the usual suspects around here on this subject.

You haven't disappointed me.

Never mind, Rogue Scotty is just the type to overplay his hand (we haven't had a genuine human rights abuser in govt in modern times)...should be fun to watch when he gets his comeuppance.

@P'rot,

<< manic barking by the usual suspects >>

ROFLMAO (that ones for you P'rot)

If anyone wanted to do a study of *manical barking* they could find no richer lobe that your anti-Abbott's rants since--since--since before he was sworn in!

ROFLMAO

For years we have been told that the reason we need to keep asylum seekers behind razor wire in off shore detention camps is that it takes a long period to determine if they are true refugees. The task is supposedly made more difficult because so many of these poor unfortunate people have chosen to throw their documentation over board.

Now it appears that it can be done with a series of 6 questions and the documentation is indeed present to make a proper assessment.

I suppose it is up to apologists like SPQR to explain which one is the biggest lie.
