(OT) An Australian Apologises for his PM

[NoOneofConsequence]

To all enworlders from Asia:

As an Australian I feel constrained to appologise for my prime minister's racist attitude and most especially his most recent and condescending comment that he would be willing to order Australian troops to violate the territory of our South East Asian neighbours in order to "fight terrorism". Personally I recognise that Asian nations are as committed to eliminating terrorism as any other nation and don't need Australia to do it for them.

Our prime minister is a conservative whose political ideas date from the 1950's. Not all Australians are like him.

Once again, sorry!

As a fellow Australian, I would like to second this apology.

D00d, while I think two election wins for Johnny "Eyebrows" Howard is three too many, politics is verboten on ENWorld.

A second apology then, I didn't feel that my comment violated the politics taboo. If it does, then I invite the moderator to do his duty. I can't retract the apology, though.

Eh, um. . . no politics. . .

Thank you, and good night.
