One of Australia's intelligence organisations is very, very dumb. They have taken the word of Sri Lankan security on the worthiness of Tamil refugees. The UN condemn the Sri Lankan refugee camps and their lack of law and order, and even the way security labels those in the camps non-refugees.
Oh and the Tamils have been oppressed for decades,They've been murdered, terrorised and generally treated as untouchable (Yes, Sri Lanka even had India in to murder the Tamils). Strangely enough the Tamils began to fight back. Earlier they were called freedom fighters by the media.
ASIO clerks should do some fucking research themselves.
"Attempted murder" is the charge that should be leveled at the Japanese whaling ship that cut the Sea Shepherd's speed boat in half. To term it just "a vicious attack" as the media is doing is allowing the fleet to up its aggressive behavior.
The Australian government and Peter Garret are displaying their lack of fortitude in not pursuing an act in their waters which is akin to piracy.
Where has the real Australia disappeared?
Why is the CIA failing? Most operatives were given am education in post-modernism: no person carries more influence, weight,or gravitas than another. There is no such thing as a fact (remember that beauty: if I'm in a room alone am I really in the room?)No observations are valid because they can't be proved because evidence is not necessarily proof.
There is also no such thing as a valid psychological or cerebral characteristic. Need I go further.
The CIA requires writers who are dedicated to true psychological motivation to oversee their material. Of course it will never happen.
The Chinese government has pulled put of its $45 billion natural gas deal that our fawning federal government and its minister Peter Garret took ACCOUNT OF TO HELP DESTROY A PRISTINE REEF AND SEAS north of Broome, to accomodate the shipping of such gas.
This blog predicted that they would pull out for they only wanted the contract to show the world at Copenhagen that they were going natural gas rather than coal. As it turned out the pathetic Copenhagen climate summit didn't require such information.
It should be a lesson for all our governments that China is a bullying and bluffing country of unaware bureaucrats (just like ours) that won't keep their word on any deals or agreements, and that any figures they show to impress the world how economically sound they are will be totally fabricated.
Being totally blinded by China our governments (Federal and WA) have dedicated $50 billion to the development and destruction of the pristine seas and rare and fragile coast line off northern Western Australia. Of course Woodside is running around in a blind panic claiming they can do better deals with Japan, or even Korea. They're desperate to keep their share price traveling up and the mug investor mugs believe it.
