Lets hope our police can catch the Australian persons responsible for the attack on the Indonesian Embbutty with biological Weapons of Mbutt Destruction as quickly as the Indonesian police captured, tried and jailed the Bali planters. Otherwise the dangrous precedent which Deputy Dawg has set, arguinf that nations have the right to launch pre-emptive military agression if they feel threatened, may have tragic repercussions for our security in the region.
"Biological scare shuts embbutty The Age, June 1, 2005 - 4:43PM
An envelope found at the Indonesian Embbutty in Canberra today had tested positive for a biological agent, Foreign Minister Alexander Downer has told parliament."
"Further analysis of the powder has tested positive as a biological agent so further testing will need to be carried out to find out what that substance actually is,'' he said.
"As such there is a possibility that the Indonesian embbutty will need to be shut down for quite some period of time and the 22 staff will remain in isolation for the next 48 hours.''
Mr Downer condemned whoever had sent the package.

Opposition Leader Kim Beazley slammed those who sent the package to the embbutty.
"This is a disgraceful act, to be condemned by all Australians,'' he said.
"It's very necessarily, I think to learn from this, that people should view the circumstances now surrounding the particular case which may have generated this with a bit of calm dispbuttion and commonsense.
"There is no doubt at all that this is a very serious thing to have happened.'' Mr Beazley said if it proved to be a dangerous biological agent, it would be the first time in Australia that this had occurred.
"There should be absolutely no doubt in the public mind that the House is of a combined and united view that this sort of outrageous behaviour must not be encouraged, an atmosphere which encourages it must not be sustained,'' he said."
The persons are riding a wave of hatred stirred up by irresponsible elements in Australia, and the media has a profound responsibility for it's role in deliberately fanning hysteria and failing to educate the mob in a responsible and balanced buttessment of recent events.
