Fading Fast
According to Misha Schubert and Mary-Louise O’Callaghan in todays Australian, over in Nauru some weirdo’s are on a hunger strike and for some reason, some commentators have managed to blame this self-inflicted hunger on Australia.
Refugee advocates claim many of the men will never recover from the trauma they have inflicted on themselves in a desperate bid to avoid repatriation to turbulent climes in Afghanistan or Iraq.…trauma they have inflicted on themselves is what it is all about. Stop inflicting trauma on yourselves and your medical problems will disappear.
The already controversial protest attracted more criticism yesterday with accusations some of the 100 children in Australia’s detention centre in Nauru were being told to join the 35 hunger strikers.Now they’re deliberately starving their own children. What gets up my ribs is that there are idiots in this country that are encouraging this sort of behaviour and in some strange way, believe they are helping address human rights issues. Give me a break! The hunger strikers are fading as fast as their chances of becoming Australians.

I think that an important point that you have failed to mention is that these people who are starving themselves (and, apparently their kiddies) have had their applications for refugee status rejected by the UN.
So why are ‘refugee advocates’ having anything to do with them?
Hear, hear.
They can go home as soon as they like, at no cost thanks to Australia’s generosity, repeat generosity, not requirement.
Acting like spoiled children who can’t get what they want will never achieve their goal of living permanently in Australia.
Well done, Vanstone and the department.
I would imagine there are a few RAAF boys who would want to add hours, or the older guys who want to stay current, would be most happy to give these clowns a one-way trip home in a C-130.
Besides, it would relive the Government of the considerable debit burden of the current hotel arrangements plus deter others from the same caper.
