SgtRock Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I read this yesterday and my first thought was what Western Countries were bombing Australia. Then I remembered that myth has been well and truly debunked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hayduke Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) What is with Western Union? It seems the only people who use it are criminals. Shutting it down would put a huge financial dent in international terrorism, drug dealing, human trafficking and God knows what else?

Lannig Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 What is with Western Union? It seems the only people who use it are criminals. Shutting it down would put a huge financial dent in international terrorism, drug dealing, human trafficking and God knows what else? Maybe, but it would also cause a famine in Africa and probably in many other of the poorest part of this world. For a huge number of migrant workers, it's the only way to send money back home (paying outrageous fees but that's another story) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think that supporting a terrorist group that would do harm to Australia is OK? What planet do you live on?

Sure she can..........EXCEPT support terrorism!!I think the penalty should be life, but only because Australia doesn't support the death penalty. Giddyup is right on the money Australia gave mamy a safe haven but they're now engaged in subversive activities against Australia.Scum.

They're like the Palestinians firing rockets from schools, etc., and when the launching site is targeted, there are kids killed. The terrorists make the decision to kill women and children when they conduct warfare from residential areas, and collateral damage is inevitable. They are not the instrument of death, but they are the architects of deaths of women and children. Edited March 25, 2016 by F4UCorsair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
