Haka2011, IMO Tony Abbott's scaremongering and denigration of Muslims has exacerbated the situation in the Middle East - much worse today than before Abbott became a player.
Abbott's decision to return Australian defence personnel back into the quagmire following our recent extraction from Iraq and Afghanistan has been followed by the downing of that Russian civilian plane, attacks on Lebanon and the atrocities in Paris.
IMO reports such as those in the investigative series of articles; 'Shirtfronted', indicate that the laughing is at Abbott because of just how inappropriate and wrong his actions have proven to be - at our expense!
