*Ø* Blogmanac | Australia to send Christian refugee and others to death in Iran?
Australia's government goes from appalling to criminal in its treatment of refugees and I'm one of a growing number of Aussies who is determined to spread the word to people of goodwill in other countries. I am in a fortunate situation in that I don't work for the government, the media or any non-governmental organisation (NGO), so I am free to call a spade a spade and say what many others would like to say: the Howard government of Australia is out of control on human rights and many people are suffering under its horrendous policies. We need the voices of people overseas to help put an end to the racist Howard government, so I hope you will inform your media and politicians, and send the article linked below to all your friends.

Immigration Minister, Philip Ruddock, is as bad as Howard. His own daughter, Kirsty, left the country and a good job because she is so ashamed of his racist policies and the huge number of asylum seekers kept in our notorious concentration camps in the hot desert.

Now the mob in power are using terror tactics against asylum seekers who will certainly be sent back to Iran and other places to face possible torture and execution. Ruddock and his henchman have deliberately kept the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) out of the plot.
