Asylum Seekers-should we or shouldn't we?

More proof the boat people are part of a system of criminal activity and not genuine fleeing of people seeking refuge;

"Early this morning Indonesian port police intercepted a convoy of asylum seekers from Iran and Syria heading to the coast in minibuses. The group, which included women and children, were escorted by five Indonesian military officers who were in uniform but are believed to have been unarmed.
The head of port police intelligence, Maryoto, has told the ABC the officers were arrested and handed over to military police for questioning. He says the group, which included one pregnant woman, was intending to board a boat at Palangpang beach in Pelabuhanratu to travel to Christmas Island." @ ABC

Not that sane people didn't already know this but the Green's party seemed to still be peddling the poor victim case as did the ALP for the last couple of elections.

 

Exactly how is that proof they are criminals again?

 

If these rats were as desperate as they claim, they would be going to Russia and Cambodia for help; not risking their lives coming to Australia. They are paying people smugglers to smuggle them in through the backdoor simply to access Australia's easy welfare & housing system - an easy system that Russia and Cambodia don't have.

 

They are crossing borders without permissions, they are paying criminals to conduct crimes. Its illegal to do both. Not to mention it seems they are misleading intelligence and immigration upon arrival to ensure meeting our refugee criteria.
