Letter to an Asylum Seeker cc Sarah Hanson-Young et al

To Whom it Really Does Concern

So many letter writers have explained how this land is made up of immigrants. Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people why today's Australian is not willing to accept the new kind of immigrant any longer without some restoration of our sovereignty from the corrupt morality of the UN .

Back in 1900 when there was a rush from all areas of Europe to come to Australia, people had to get off a ship and stand in a long line in Sydney and be documented. Some would even get down on their hands and knees and kiss the ground. They made a pledge to uphold the laws and support their new country in good and bad times. They made learning English a primary rule in their new Australian households and some even changed their names to blend in with their new home.

They had waved goodbye to their birth place to give their children a new life and did everything in their power to help their children assimilate into one culture.

Nothing was handed to them. No free lunches, no welfare, no labour laws to protect them. All they had were the skills, craftsmanship and desire they had brought with them to trade for a future of prosperity. We accommodated and employed a Ukraine husband and wife and two young daughters on our farm in late 50's

Most of the children of early arrivals came of age when World War II broke out. Australians fought along side men whose parents had come straight over from Germany, Italy, France, Czechoslovakia, Russia, Sweden, Poland and so many other places. None of these first generation Australians ever gave any thought about what country their parents had come from. They were Australians fighting Hitler, Mussolini and the Emperor of Japan.. They were defending the Freedom as one people. When our thousands who lie buried at Fromelle helped to liberate France, no-one in those villages was looking for the Ukrainian-Australian or the German-Australian or the Irish-Australian. The people of France saw only Australians.

And we carried one flag that represented our country. Not one of those immigrant sons would have thought about picking up another country's flag and waving it to represent who they were. It would have been a disgrace to their parents who had sacrificed so much to be here. These immigrants truly knew what it meant to be an Australian.

And here we are by 2011 with a new kind of immigrant who wants the same rights and privileges and opportunities so long as we pay for it. They want to achieve it by playing with a different set of rules, that include a constant liability on the Nation helped by the Greens. But that's not what being an Australian is all about.

Australians have been very open-hearted and open-minded regarding immigrants, whether they were fleeing poverty, dictatorship, persecution, or whatever else. It makes us think of those early immigrants who truly did ADOPT our country, and our flag and our morals and our customs. And left their wars, hatred, divisions and ideology of life and death behind.

I think our early immigrants and asylum seekers, as poor as they were,would be appalled that they are being used as an example by those waving foreign country flags, on our soil, making Australians change to suit their religions and cultures, and wanting to change our country’s fabric by claiming racial discrimination when we do not give in to their demands. Demands very often supported by the corrupt intentions of the UNHCR who ignore the problems of Africa and its tribal warlords while. Australia is the easy touch that requires no risk to the UN.

Join our country, join our culture, join our beliefs, join our schools, our armies, the Ambos and the EFS or the footy club and join the line in giving volunteer support for all less fortunate including the old guy under the newspapers sheltering from the cold behind the gardeners shed in the West Tce cemetery.. If there is no job for your lack of skills then go to school - it is free - instead of forever taking the hand-outs.

If you are from another religion and don’t like ours, then go live yours somewhere else. If you are not happy with our rules and our culture, go live yours somewhere else. If you don’t like our lifestyle and our opinions, go live yours somewhere else. Join us, be Australians Don't be shy and when you are dumping your own country, dump your trash there with it - come here and be one of us. We don’t need you, you need us, join in or bugga off.

Hi Bob ... I got a bit teary reading your letter.

It was a if you were writing about my grandparents one from Germany and one from Holland who met on the ship coming over and eloped when they landed (grandmother was promised by her father to another man from Hollard who she had never met).

Like you said above grandfather would never allow any language to be spoken in the home except English.

For the rest of your letter it made to feel proud to know you (on paper and through your correspondence) and to be honoured by the fact that you are my friend.

Are you intending to send it to all our politicans ( small 'p' intentional) because I believe that like me it must touch them in some way.

My fond regards

Caroline

Unfortunately Caroline, the majority, by far the majority of the present cabal of politicians employ, at public expense, a cordon sanitaire of thousands to keep these sort of home truths off the desk. Short of throwing oneself under a bus in front of Parliament House, the only way of attracting their personal attention is to question their morality at every opportunity that other means provide. Our Just Grounds being but one of them. We could always plant a few copies in open envelopes with used stamps stuck on them at the bus stops

...and thank you for your charming response to my Letter to Asylum Seekers and Sarah Hanson-Young et al. Among the et al is a regurgitated Democrat but that is for another time. Our 5th Column might find a way to address it to the political wife or husband as part of breakfast table discussion. You know the sort of thing, the electric bill came today, the children need new shoes and Mrs Smith next door asking if you know Craig Thomson very well. Slip it in then between the last piece of toast and a swig of coffee.

I was rather disappointed with the Opening Of the Olympic Games in London and so was my husband. So we decided to sit down this afternoon to watch the Opening Ceremony of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney. What a difference between the two.

Australia may not have a long history, tradition or culture but that Opening Ceremony was so creative, innovative and celebrated what it means to be an Australian. Our land started with the indigenous peoples then European settlement to what we had become as a Nation in 2000. Our settlement and development was based on the National needs for skilled labour with some humanitarian refugees.

How proud we were at the Olympics and for a while we grew in our pride as a Nation.

Then along came the Greens in force and their selfish Agenda. Refugee intake has gone from being a humanitarian action to a corporate business planned by Indonesia and aided and abetted by Government control over the Navy and Airforce. The Nation's needs are not taken into consideration in decisions regarding who comes to Australia. And the taxpayer foots the bill.

It has only been 12 years since that time and I almost do not recognise that National pride that we demonstrated at that time.

If I believed in living a dream I would go back to 2000 and make sure that we did not make those same mistakes.

Kind regards to my fellow Australians.

Yes, for a country that is technically bankrupt it was an event to enjoy.

I too, love the English humour and its clever subtleties. So refreshing from the bland American crud.

Have you been watching any of the talking animal clips courtesy of the BBC lately?

Done as only the Poms can do.

Jan, I am disturbed with a current event involving the murder of an Afghani girl in Australia by her parents for "family honour" and forgive me for coming back on track.

My direct question to Sarah Hanson Young, a Senator of the Nation, a custodian and not just a pretty face who would be appalled at the suggestion she take any of the Islamic males into her home, but would have another 20,000 into ours. who have a barbaric and cruel notion of life and death

"Afghani's Jailed over Four Honour Killings"

Please if you have a sensetivity to the issue of asylum seekers who spent thousands to smugglers who could have used the money to turn their situation around but chose to run away instead. It says a great deal about them. Would Sarah Hanson-Young or any of the Greens have any idea if they are running away from a "barbaric and cruel" existence? Or bringing it with them?

Sorry Bob, The History of Britain doesn't really belong here - I didn't actually look at the topic title when I replied to Caroline's expressed disappointment with the Olympic opening Ceremony.

Your letter is exceptional - the post war migrants have been an asset to Australia, bringing the good things with them, food, skills, music, culture. Then the Vietnamese have also brought with them a fantastic work ethic and desire for education and show their gratitude for the opportunity and freedom Australia affords them in so many ways.

Sadly though, the last wave, arriving here by illegal means, have brought resentment, disharmony and the desire to restrict OUR lives with their cruel, medieval and repressive beliefs and customs, and they want US to pay them.

We have enough people in need who would dearly love the opportunities and largesse our socialist government is handing out to these people, who by burning their documents cause us to wonder the ir refugee status.

Sunday, Bloody Sunday Bob. If this is a growing trends in the countries mentioned how long before it begins happening here?

You have raised an important issue in asking the question about whether we are saving them from such ill treatment or bringing to a country where it will continue to happen therefore no salvation or sanctuary.

It is not a growing trend Caroline but a well entrenched way of life and death. My life in ME conditioned me to comment my own experiences while in Libya 73 and 74 and one of my sons in the Sudan and Kabul for much of his adult life and he is now 58 hence no reference to any country in particular but Islamia generally which is reflected in the 3 events written. I have another 21 records, 7 of those from NY Times.

Sarah Hanson-Young tearfully expressing her concern for a 15 yr old Afghani boy in detention would not have considered for one moment anything more than her own political theater to reflect on whether the boy would stand by while his "married"sister doused herself with kerosene and set herself alight after being scolded by her husband's relatives ( 86 recorded incidents in Afghanistan 2010) or whether his father killed her for "family honour" because she ran away after having been sold for marriage to an older man and he had to give the gold back with such a profound "loss of face"

Caroline all of what Bob says is True and but the Tip of the Iceberg,When it comes to opening people's eyes regarding so called "Honor" killings and in reallity just how much of it actually goes on who only knows but a good reference site for Information is Pamela Gellers "Atlas Shrugs",How she has survived God only knows as she continues to uncover so much in the way of facts to expose the Real Islam and the treacherous fifth Column of support they have worldwide.

I find who is behind various aspects of treachery and then research the Money Trail as it always ends up being a common thread among the Power Hungry That is how I uncover people such as George Soros,Al Gore,Gareth Evans and the areas of implication of skullduggery by these fifth columnists.

Even Aljazera is now reffering to the Islamist revolution in Syria as the "Orange" revolution which is tacict acknowledgement it is yet another of George Soros's "Color Revolutions which started in the Eastern Bloc countries.

Knowing what is really happening around the world is vital in understanding what are the goals of the Greens and labor for Australia,It actually exposes the deeper agenda and like so much even that despicable organisation the UN is but a pawn of the organisers of Chaos the World is and has experienced over the last couple of hundred years.Chaos that was originally Europe centric.

Just to take a little break from Honour Killings (because it makes me depressed) and back to the Greens Letter Writing, I did not know whether to enter this here or under Christine Milne's topic. But today in Hobart they drew awareness to homelessness in Tasmania. It was estimated that at least 2000 are homeless in our State but this does not include those that are 'couch seekers', that is, people who go from home to home each night seeking a couch to sleep on just for that night.

It was found that homelessness in Tasmania in higher than national figures.

And we have that Army Barracks which is used as a Detention Centre (See Migrants, Terrorists.......) available where many homeless in Hobart could be housed. I am not sure if it is owned by the State or Federal Governments but if the latter surely it could be leased to house our homeless.

Fond regards to you both

Caroline
