that's exactly the problem ------------- you cannot see

You cannot see that war causes people to fall into habits that may not be legal or peaceful to survive

You cannot see that war traumatises people and they then behave differently than before - it's a life changing experience

You cannot see that someone being bombed out of their home, having their families and friends killed, mutilated, tortured and injured for life changes people

You cannot see that escaping from a nation in war does not reverse the psychological damage

You cannot see that unjust actions often create hate that will persist forever

You cannot see that John Howard - Australia Prime Minister was one of the major perpetrators of that completely unjust war and that if we were not the victors - John Howard would be very likely charged for war crimes

You cannot see that without Australia being in war in Iraq and the ME that almost no one there would even know we exist

You cannot see much at all, the truth be told -- but, we force you to vote

that is a logical process that I cannot see why the hell we make you

Those people were being terrorised by their own leader, and if you want to look at facts Islamic immigrants from the middle east have a far greater representation in criminal offences than their percentage of population in the western world.
