Freediver... instead of hiding such a meaningful article amongst a dumb Howard hating thread... why not bring it to everyones attention and give it the attention it deserves?
I've said it before and I'll say it again... screw the UN...
Quote:http://www.smh.com.au/news/breaking-news/un-report-gives-howard-govt-an-f-mark/2... An inaugural report on Australia's performance at the United Nations has given the federal government a fail mark.
It gives the government a D for climate change and the
global movement of people and a C for human rights and foreign aid.
Australia fares better in the peacekeeping category with a B, but did not receive an A in any of the 10 areas examined.
The association said Australia's participation in the "illegal" invasion of Iraq,
treatment of asylum seekers and Aborigines and failure to ratify the Kyoto Protocol had damaged its reputation abroad.
"I hope the government will see it as a constructive contribution to the need to improve Australia's role and standing in the UN," former UN ambassador Richard Woolcott said at a launch of the report in Canberra.
Seriously, how DARE the UN complain about the way Australia treats its immigrants when other countries treat them 100 times worse.
If you ask me... any country that allows ONE or TWO
Africans into their country... let alone thousands should be commended... as they're such useless, troublemaking citizens. Let me indicate that out of the odd 20 Africans allowed in the city of Tamworth... about 75% have already been arrested.
We are generous enough to give those undeservng basterds cars, houses and welfare... and what do they give in return? Nothing. Just gang rapes... car crashes... aids... etc etc. (Oh but wait... they fill 'useful' positions like trolley pushers and taxi drivers.
)
Furthremore, I haven't even BEGAN on the Middle Easterners flocking to this country yet.
And the UN has the nerve to complain Australia not accepting enough immigrants? They're such basterds and don't consider the damage refugees can do to western countries. So seriously.... screw em.'
