Thread Name: BS: Australian Terrorism Cockup
Subject: RE: BS: Australian Terrorism Cockup
I'm not sure about this Haneef guy, I think there are a lot of questions that haven't been adequately answered. But the govt. and Aust. Federal Police have ensured that a fair & inpartial investigation is now out of the question, so well done guys, another win for the boots & all, both-guns-blazing anti-terrorism methodology propounded by the Coalition Of The Cretinous.
I would also like to address the response made by Foriegn Minister Alexander Downer to the suggestion that Haneef is owed an apology for having been slandered and detained for four days for no apparent reason: "What do you expect them to do - fall on the ground and grovel, eat dirt? Get real" As I say, I have reservations about Haneef, but that statement by Downer is frighteningly fascist for my liking.
