Armchair Critic- Thanks for your posts. They're always interesting. Obama became US President in November 2012.

Hey Canem Malum,
"Obama became US President in November 2012." - Correction - Obama was re-elected as US President for a second term in November 2012. Posted by Armchair Critic, Monday, 25 March 2019 5:15:39 AM

Armchair Critic- Of course. Sorry about my memory and incorrect fact checking. With respect I need to look into the history of Sudan a bit more. But I suspect there are pressures building in Africa with population growth and then a hair trigger will set a new round of violence induced refugees. When the UN Refugee Convention was created the refugees were from Europe and were after the First and Second World Wars- these refugees seem to have occurred for perhaps subtly difference reasons. Looking back and comparing with Africa's situation now perhaps the reasons for the World War's could have been partially related to the dynamics of population growth in Europe. You're probably a better person to comment on this than I.

Hey Canem Malum,
"Sorry about my memory and incorrect fact checking." Don't worry about it, I'm guessing you probably knew Obama was elected in 2008 but you made your comment without thinking about it and messed it up. - It was an honest mistake and I'm sure we all do it every now and again. I hope it didn't seem like I was nitpicking correcting you. It was too obvious an error not to point out. I thought if someone doesn't point this one out we'll all look like dills... The reason for my comment re Sudan is because of a video I watched here, you'll hear it mentioned about 50 seconds into the video. I don't know the truth of it actually, as I haven't yet looked at it in-depth, but I will at some point. http://youtu.be/LYvW2Em1uLs Posted by Armchair Critic, Monday, 25 March 2019 7:09:11 PM

Canem, try his parliamentary web site. It should still be there. My impression of it was it very badly timed. If he had said it as late as now it would not have had the same reaction. It was not all that out of line with much that has been said many times without causing such a reaction. Answer- I think Fraser Anning believes that addressing the underlying cause of the issue now is the best way of preventing it in the future. Posted by Canem Malum, Tuesday, 26 March 2019 8:08:12 AM
