Yes I am still waiting for the blossoming Iraq democracy we were promised by the US neocons! You know the democracy that would be a beacon of light to the rest of the Arabic world. Something seems to have gone wrong with the theory. In fact Iraq is no longer a country, it has broken up into various ethnic, religious states or enclaves. I read today the Iraq's Christian minority is no more, they have been murdered and dispersed. Great outcome George and Dick! At least under the hated Sadam H they had some protection.

Sad am was a tyrant but it seems that is what these country's need to stay intact.

I personally would love to press gang Bush, Cheney and other NeoCons into service in Baghdad, in amongst the violence and the chaos, to try to realise their theoretical fantasy.

Good ideas at the time can just die in the dust of reality. this wasn't the smartest concept, & carried out with the care of a 'H' bomb.

The invasion of Iraq was imo a war crime which the United Nations were against, but arrogance & power overruled the law of democracy again; so the willing went in, not to find WOMD, but IMO to put a Western wedge in between Iran & Israel. & to regain western control of the oil fields.

stupidity of the highest order thinking the Muslims would/could live by democracy when they have a different social fabric than that of the west.

# the same mistakes made in the wrecking of our Koori's cultures, thinking they also should live like Nuclear families apparently should?

thats the least we could do IMO. these people in charge of the worlds peoples affairs are never held to account, unless they're on the wrong side of things. the losing side....

Indonesia says hello.

No, they don't have a perfect democracy yet, but they are well on the way.

true Indonesia, yes, but what, they have a model democracy don't they, not.

may be well on the way during settled times, but when things get agitated, I think they all seperate into the fragments of they're cultures.

Doesn't that happen in other places too? Even in other democracies? Places like Ferguson, Missouri in the US of A? Didn't they have to call in the National Guard?

during times of agitation, cultural differences can become Major problems.

This is why I think its wise to keep your immigration to people who are a 'closer fit' to your existing culture... West Indies, Kiwi's, Balinese, British, Scots, European, Polynesian, Buddhists, Japanese, Viets, SthEast Asians, etc.

I'm not sure what the common thread is that you see in those cultures / countries that makes them a suitable fit for Australia.

I guess what I'm asking is: who do you think we should keep out?

  • Author

most of those cultures blend in fairly seamlessly. they seem to be familiar with our culture & accept our culture & respect it. this is Key IMO. there are many here driving taxi's who have no time for us or our culture, & just want to besmirch us & to crap on us & this country.

there is a bit of a distinction.

humbleness, humility, peaceful natured, appreciative, respectful,,,,,,,,

Driving taxis? You can only be referring to Indians and Pakistanis. Why not say so?

I don't agree with your proposition anyway. Many of those taxi drivers have degrees and double degrees and cannot get work in their chosen fields - they bust a gut doing work for which they are overqualified so they can feed their families and send their kids to good schools.

Hard work, aspiration for a better life - sounds pretty Australian to me (in terms of how 'we' see ourselves).

as i said, there are good & bad in all nations.

we have far too many in my book here now, & I would like to see more from burma, thailand, vietmam, stheast asia generally, & less from the mid east & near east & nth africa.

but thats my opinion, but uncle tony is being wooed by the dollar again & more will be on the way.

may have to compare his name to the 'Pigmetal Bob'..... 'Yellowcake Tony'.

George Bush does his best to stop the tough questions from rebuttle. It is common practice for the news station to provide a list of questions and potential questions to the President. On every single rebuttle question the interviewer asks, George Bush cuts her short, and they never return to her real questions.

Americans voted Jr. into office TWICE.

Now Deash break out in Afghanistan.

Isis just spread to Afghanistan and now has ‘1,600 militants there’

The so called Islamic State has just got a little bigger.   Isis, also known as Daesh, has apparently expanded into Afghanistan and is said to have assumed control over four districts.   The terror group was able to capture the areas south of Jalalabad after an estimated 1,600 militants launched an assault, according to the Times.

A camp may have already been set up in Nangarhar province, Afghanistan, with supporters tweeting out images of it, the Long War Journal added.

Daesh was thought to have taken advantage of a splintered Taliban force, whose leader Mullah Akhtar Mansoor was reportedly injured in Pakistan last week.

But yesterday he released a rare audio recording in which he denied claims he was wounded in a shootout during a meeting with other commanders.

......  The withdrawal of Western armies is also thought to played a part in Daesh deciding to expand.

The United States confirmed it was monitoring the situation in the country,  with local troops thought to be overwhelmed. 

‘We are aware of the presence of Isil-affiliated militants in Afghanistan,  and we are monitoring closely to see whether their emergence will have a meaningful impact on the threat environment in the region,’ a Pentagon spokesperson said.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
    Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
