Abbott/Cameron secretly love ISIS. And ISIS would prefer them to the alternative.

The difference is that ISIS help Abbott/Cameron in their short-term goals of trying to get re-elected. Whereas Abbott/Cameron help ISIS's long-term goals of depleting the West's ability to influence world politics as well as public opinion in the Middle East.

I think Abbott may be waltzing Australia into further years of hideous expense and lives lost in the Middle East.

It may turn out to be his most enduring legacy.

Aren't there about 52 Muslim countries in the world? Don't they all have armies?

So if they're all against Islamic fundamentalism for it being an abuse of 'True Islam' ~ then why aren't they sending troops over there to wipe out the 'Islamic State' mob?

Or is that a silly question? Cool

Only in the old boy’s telling. My grandparents are from the Isle of Skye and somewhere in Ireland.

How do we know you’re not from New Guinea?

That flag was a bit of a giveaway. I see you’ve taken it down now.

Freudian slip, eh?

I’m as Scottish as you’re Australian, old boy. I went there once - damp, dreary place.

I do think you’d feel quite at home.

So 'Karnal' is indeed a 'Subcontinental'? His resentment for not having been born English or British is evident in most of his posts. It's an awful curse for him to drag this dead cat around with him wherever he goes.

At the end of Sydney summers I would have Indians asking me if I was 'Anglo-Indian' because of my suntan (a Portuguese ancestor). I never took offence at that.

If you're not comfortable in your skin, then that's a hell of a penalty to carry through life like a ... dead cat.

Don't you worry about that, Young Brian.

You worry about doing something for Australia besides work and paying your taxes. Get off your carbuncled arse and volunteer for something without payment.

I do, Herbie. I work with kids who have special needs on weekends. What do you do? I note you still seem to have contributed nothing to your adopted nation other than your "work and paying taxes".

Did you do any time in the defence or emergency services? Have you given your time voluntarily to community organisations since migrating to Australia?

Are you even an Australian citizen or are you still a citizen of the UK? Roll Eyes
