UPDATE: THE Libyan Government says it has tracked down and detained a group of young people believed responsible for a disgraceful attack on a graveyard of Commonwealth war heroes. War graves Libya YouTube footages shows how two Commonwealth war graves cemeteries have been damaged in attacks both the Benghazi War Cemetery and now the Benghazi British Military Cemetery. Picture: YouTube Supplied Shame of a nation So we helped these vermin? Govt condemns Libyan war grave attacks Armed extremists waged their attack on the Benghazi cemetery, in the east of Libya, smashing up 198 graves and then uploading their rampage to YouTube. Dressed in combat gear and armed with guns, the extremists filmed themselves rampaging through the Benghazi cemetery as they smashed up headstones and tore down the Cross of Remembrance with a sledgehammer. They can be heard laughing and cursing the fallen servicemen as they embarked on the trail of destruction at the cemetery, in the east of Libya, which holds 48 Australians, including 11 Victorians. The vandals, who boasted of the destruction by putting their video on the internet, can be heard saying: "Destroy that cross, they are dogs" and "We begin with this one then we'll take care of that other one. We won't leave any left". Acting Foreign Minister Craig Emerson said reports one of the damaged graves was Australian had not yet been confirmed. He said the Libyan ambassador had informed him a “number” of “young people” had been detained and were being questioned about who else was involved. Motive was not yet known, but police had been deployed to protect the site, he said. The MP said Australians were rightly outraged and Libyan authorities were “mortified”.
We did warn didn't we - we're just replacing one group of nutters for another. Nice to see their gratitude though. See also www.heraldsun.com.au/opinion/so-we-actually-helped-these-vermin/story-fn56avn8-1226288755179 |

No surprises there, the arabs would have been better off if the nazis won anyway, I think we rained on their parade, they would have had a ball shovelling jews into the gas chambers.

I'm really over it. Just let them all get on with it, doing what mussos do, which is killing one another. I no longer care because the reality is, they are all as bad as one another.
There is no hope for the Middle East. They are all crazy, rioting, violent, volatile lunatics. The sooner they have all wiped themselves out, the better.

Something else to get into a tizz about I guess. Which is fine if you want your life to be about finding "causes" to feel a sense of outrage about so it confirms your worst prejudices regarding an ethnic/cultural group you don't much care about. I seem to recall in my primary school years in north coast NSW (a million or so years ago) a grassy area in a gully that was known to the locals as a "blackfellas graveyard". Research when I was older established that these in fact had been graves of the Myall people who had been murdered in a massacre in the 1830s. You could argue that they were in fact war graves.
Didn't stop the developers from building units on 'em, though! Nobody got upset. Maybe a few blackfellas in the know might have been a tad upset but nobody asked them.

Was there really a massacre or are you just quoting from standard practice leftist revisionist rewriting of aboriginal history ala figments of robert mannes very fertile imagination here? A group of eleven stockmen, consisting of assigned convicts and former convicts, ten of them of European extraction and one African, led by a squatter, John Fleming, arrived at Henry Dangar's Myall Creek station on 10 June 1838. They rode up to the station huts beside which were camped a group of approximately thirty five Aboriginals. They were part of the Wirrayaraay (alternative spelling: Weraerai) group who belonged to the Kamilaroi tribe. They had been camped at the station for a few weeks after being invited by one of the convict stockmen, Charles Kilmeister, to come to their station for their safety and protection from the gangs of marauding stockmen who were roaming the district slaughtering any Aboriginals they could find. These Aboriginals had previously been camped peacefully at McIntyre's station for a few months. They were therefore well known to the whites. Most of them had been given European names such as Daddy, King Sandy, Joey, Martha and Charley. Some of the children spoke a certain amount of English. When the stockmen rode into their camp the Aboriginals fled into the convict's hut pleading for protection. When asked by the station hut keeper, George Anderson, what they were going to do with the Aboriginals, John Russell said they were going to "take them over the back of the range and frighten them." The stockmen then entered the hut, tied the Aboriginals to a long tether rope and led them away. They took them to a gully on the side of the ridge about 800 metres to the west of the station huts. There they slaughtered them all except for one woman who they kept with them for the next couple of days. The approximately 28 people they murdered were largely women, children and old men. Most of the younger men were away on a neighbouring station cutting bark. Most of the Aboriginals were slaughtered with swords as George Anderson, who refused to join the massacre, clearly heard there were just two shots. Unlike Anderson, Charles Kilmeister joined the slaughter of the Aboriginals. After the massacre, Fleming and his gang rode off looking to kill the remainder of the group, who they knew had gone to the neighbouring station. They succeeded, and on their return two days later dismembered and burnt the bodies. When the manager of the station, William Hobbs, returned several days later and discovered the bodies, counting up to twenty eight of them (as they were beheaded and dismembered he had difficulty determining the exact number) he decided to report the incident but Kilmeister initially talked him out of it. Hobbs discussed it with a neighbouring station overseer, Thomas Foster, who told squatter Frederick Foot who rode to Sydney to report it to the new Governor, George Gipps. Supported by the Attorney General, John Plunkett, Gipps ordered Police Magistrate, Edward Denny Day at Muswellbrook, to investigate the massacre. Day carried out a thorough investigation despite the bodies having been removed from the massacre site where only a few bone fragments remained. He arrested eleven of the twelve perpetrators. The only one to escape was the only free man involved, the leader, John Fleming. Anderson was crucial in identifying the arrested men. The case led to significant uproar among sections of the population and the media, sometimes voiced in favour of the perpetrators. For example, an article in the Sydney Morning Herald declared that "the whole gang of black animals are not worth the money the colonists will have to pay for printing the silly court documents on which we have already wasted too much time". John Fleming, the leader of the massacre, was never captured, and was allegedly responsible for further massacres throughout the Liverpool Plains and New England regions.[citation needed] His brother, Joseph Fleming, was also linked to massacres in the Maranoa region of south-western Queensland. John Blake, one of the four men acquitted at the first trial and not subsequently charged, committed suicide by cutting his throat in 1852. His descendants, say that they like to think he did so out of a guilty conscience. Those executed, on 18 December 1838, were: Charles Kilmeister, James Oates, Edward Foley, John Russell, John Johnstone, William Hawkins, and James Parry. A memorial to the victims of the massacre was unveiled on 10 June 2000, consisting of a granite rock and plaque overlooking the site of the massacre. A ceremony is held each year on 10 June commemorating the victims. The memorial was vandalised in January 2005, with the words "murder", "women" and "children" chiselled off, in an attempt to make it unreadable. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myall_Creek_massacreNeed any more history lessons, Garflunk and Skip? |
