Full Version: Bali bastards face up to their victims.

Last week in Australia we had some of the victims of the Bali Bombings face their attackers. Some of you may not realise how this incident affected us in Australia, but we have a population of around 20 million people, we lost 88 Australians and hundreds more were injured. Mostly young people on holidays, its cheaper to go to Bali than to holiday in our own country.

When this attack happened we sprung to action, our airforce flew into Bali and it was with or without the Indoneasnian Govenrments permission. They didn`t stop us! We had hundreds of people evactuated from that island back home to 1st world care away from the 3rd world crap they had in Bali.

We are a proud country, we are proud of the fact the we have only ever defended ourselves, we have never been the aggressor. We have changed forever, we along with the U.S.A and Britian attacked Iraq. This saddened me a little as boasted we never started wars, we finished them! But we got a wake up call. We are now being refered to as the Americans of the Asian region, well if thats the case so what!

We have football clubs in almost every country town dotted around our proud countryside, one of those Clubs lost the Bulk of its young men! Another that plays in a state league lost 5 or 6, one of the most courageous guys played at the top National level. These bastards picked the wrong targets, these young people we will miss.

Australia warned our neighbours we will search for the people who did this on their territory if you don`t.... funnily enough the Indoneasian Government found the bombers and is doing the right thing.

Good to see Jason McCartney is fit again but I would like to know more about the politics of Liberal Party (conservative politics?) leader John Howard. Apparently popularity after the Iraq War will probably get him re-elected now that he's decided to stand. Australia has been a leader for human rights in Australiasia and Oceania, especially in East Timor. I hope they will not lose track of that in their grief.
