Israel beacon of democracy is deporting Africans, page-5

remember the outcry when abbott stopped the boats, used orange lifeboats to send them back to indonesia; and made arrangements to send sri lankan boaties back to sri lanka.

the lefties were up in arms - australia was supposed to be a total embarrassment to the international community .

plenty of countries now deciding that open borders are not in their interests.

if abbott had not stopped the boats - one wonders what the level of boaties would be these days??? 100,000/year, 20o,ooo a year.

anyway, gillard once posited that it would take 20 years to fill the mcg - so what was the problem .. mmm it did not take long before the numbers exploded
