Hear Hear Max! (or is it Here here ... to cross threads )
It's a tough issue. I am sympathetic to the humanitarian plight of the people who come to our shores seeking refuge, and also have to consider our environmental and economical resources to be able to cope with them. True - Australia is a large country, but we are largely desert, but I suspect this is overlooked by a large portion of the extreme left who like to comment on this matter.
Glad to hear that you USns aren't judging us (thanks, of troy) ... our media here would like us to believe that the whole world condemns Australia for what is happening. And there's a good portion of Australia that condemns the situation...
And on the note of NZ's handling of the Tampa refugees? I'm really impressed... Saw a doco on A Current of Air (Affair) a little while ago. You Zilders certainly made us look bad (and we know how much you L-u-r-v-e doing that ).
Me - I guess I'm sitting on the (hopefully not barbed wire) fence... Ouch!!
Hi stales - fellow Aussie!!
