  1. Prime Minister Julia Gillard again has been unable to name any Australian laws broken by the controversial WikiLeaks website or its founder Julian Assange.

    No one has suggested that he has broken any Australian laws. What crock of... Red Herring.

    Americans should stop medling in what Aussies do in Australia and stop trying to force thier little laws on Australians. If the Australian Prime Minister says he has broken no Australian law then yanks pull your heads in. Australians in Australia are not bound by American laws nor do we swear alligence to the USA or abide by thier stupid little laws. The USA does not own Australia YET. America interfering in this just increases hostilities b/w yanks and aussies.

  2. Interesting, only 28.5% of men think cheating on your wife is immoral. Even more interesting is that only half of the women interviewed thought it immoral to be cheated on :blink:

    Maybe the other 50% of the women are minor wives????

    It would indeed be interesting to have the same survey done in Farangland as a comparison of morality...

    The concept of a second wife is not particularly western but rather an Asian idea. In the west, as in Africa, sex outside of the marriage is usually done through affairs or flings, or in the case with men, at least, through prostitution as well.

    However, surveys have shown that most westerners do stray outside the bounds of marriage at least once in their lives. I have read figures of 85% for both men and women. From this, I conclude that infidelity is part of the human norm, and availability is a major factor in deciding whether men or women stray.

    And while the vehicles for straying may differ in different nations/cultures, the headline in this article pretty much indicates that people from Thailand are no different from people worldwide in this. If partners are available, people, in general, will stray.

    I must be in the other 15% because I have never strayed.

  3. Prime Minister Julia Gillard again has been unable to name any Australian laws broken by the controversial WikiLeaks website or its founder Julian Assange. Western governments increasingly are calling for Assange to be stopped as WikiLeaks continues to publish more than 250,000 confidential documents from the United States State Department.

    But asked directly what Australian laws had been broken by either WikiLeaks or Assange, Ms Gillard said the Australian Federal Police were investigating.

    "The foundation stone of it is an illegal act," Ms Gillard said today.

    But the "foundation stone" was the leaking of the documents to the website, not the publishing of the cables.

    "It would not happen, information would not be on WikiLeaks, if there had not been an illegal act undertaken," Ms Gillard said.

    It is widely assumed the man responsible for the leaks is a US soldier who is already imprisoned for previous leaks.

  4. Look at her face in the photo. No wonder the husband go for a 2nd (& 3rd . . .) wife. I wouldn't blame him, poor guy.

    Your looking at the outside of a person. It does not matter what a person looks like they can still be loving and caring. Personally I think if one enters into a relationship then they should be 100% faithful. If you are bored or fall out of love then cut the ties with the other before seeking a new relationship.

  5. This is truely disgusting that this person could knowingly do this to children. There is no punishment that could fit this crime. So many people on here criticised the actions of the Greyman to protect children from these sort of people and openly defended the rights of these sort of people to have sex with children. What do they say now that so many young lives have been destroyed.

  6. The guy took a hit whilst wearing a black T-shirt and a pair of army combat trousers which was the garb worn by many 'red guards\men in black' and would have dramatically increased the chances of him being mistaken as such. In a photo I saw, he was also wearing a blue helmet with' PRESS ' printed on it in yellow.As to whether this helmet is standard issue for the press and should be recognised from a distance by the army or whether it was 'home made' from a motorbike helmet i must admit ignorance but I didn't spot a 'PRESS' armband on the guy which many other journalists and photographers did have. Anyway, he died doing what he loved but maybe didn't have proper training on how to move around in a combat zone as a member of the press. The guys from CNN and BBC all came home safely. Anyway, RIP Fabio.

    The guys from CNN and BBC do not always come home safely, they were lucky in BKK and thank god they did go home safely. You can have all the training in the world but you will never outrun a bullet. Who was it that murdered this poor guy? Yellow or reds?
