The rhetoric ramping up over ISIS brides has nothing to do with the women and children themselves (www.crikey.com.au)

Australians en-masse might not like this group of Australians, but we nonetheless have a responsibility to them, and we are failing in that responsibility.

There is nothing patriotic or nationalistic about abandoning your countrymen especially when they're in a fucked and disagreeable situation.

You wanna play favourites with groups of citizens? Guess what, you don't support your Nation, you're an ideological toad.

Always remember people who support abandoning any Australians are the lowest of the low. Its an embarrassment that so much of the political gravity in this country is pressed into this ideological and racist cul-de-sac.

Fuck the hipocrisy on full view by all these people in positions of influence refusing to help and actively working against Australians being able to live again in their homes. They're about as loyal to Aus as an egg on a teflon pan. Get these people home, deal with them here.

this, let then back, if they've committed a crime pit them on trial.

one was married at 14 ffs.

I'm all for keeping undesirables out, so next time Pauline, or Barnaby or Andrew Hastie or Angus Taylor leaves, don't let them back in.
