Come to Australia

Sure, we are not Bali, but we got some pretty neat stuff too . But if you’re looking for a tropical setting, most pacific islands would do the trick, you could also use one of the many places on the Great Barrier Reef (which BTW, is absolutely beautiful)

If the gov't gets too much flak from the public for supporting the US, that would be a real shame. I hope that a principled approach wins through.

Deep down, I'm guessing that Australian action or inaction in the war against terrorism wouldn't sway the likes of al Qaeda. Just as American action or inaction on Israel/Palestine had only a peripheral impact on the goals for 9/11.

Fact is, 99.9% of the world's population is a valid target under current al Qaeda ideology. Bonus points for westerners. Triple word score for Americans.

according to sources:
1 Greek person and 1 Greek Australian person were hurt in the explosion and one Greek Australian person was killed.

Another Greek person of no known ID is missing.

and it's ok to support it when your interests are common but if they are not then don't (to the point that the US terrorism this time doesnt affect you).

i'm sure many european countries will never have the fate of bali just because of that.

If you actually mean what you say here, then you're one of the most pathetic persons I've ever encountered.

please winston i havent offended you (well most of the time) and i'd appreciate if you keep some level of discussion too.

[Winston]

Well it's difficult being nice while at the same time having to read a statement like the one I just quoted you on.

I noted you didn't dispute or correct it in any way. You're rubbish paiktis22.

[Bereta_Eder]

you lose your temper often and you have done so in the past to many posters.

you should learn the difference between empathy and vitriolic critisism and if you disagree try to apply the latter.


some civilized person.

[Winston]

I haven't lost my temper. I just called you on the way your mind truely works. And you don't like that, which I certainly understand...

[Bereta_Eder]

i know you are viciously pro american but you shouldnt curse people who disagree with you.

you dissapoint me again for the 2nd time.

relax winston, you'll have a stroke

[Sprayber]

Why don't you two take your disagreement to another thread. This is about the people that have died and are missing not personal crusades against the US or personal insults.

[Winston]

I wasn't planning on pursuing it any further.
