I agree, you never know what's been photoshopped these days. Looks so much like a cover of 1984 that I still have some doubts.i think it is (hard to tell these days)

Also, when has CCTV ever stepped up and stopped an assault or murder before it happened? While it has its occasional uses, people promoting it as some sort of crime prevention tool are laughably naive.

Pre the Soviet invasion, that's probably a stretch. Much of it was wealthier than other nations in the vicinty, relatively advanced. Not "first world" as "the west" was then called. But far from "third world" either.
It was probably roughly (in comparitive terms, obviously technology has moved on a lot and what was "developed" then is not so now) where Malaysia is now. Either at the "developed" end of "developing", or the "developing" end of "developed" but with systemic poverty in many areas. It never really had a strong central government though, from my understanding at least.
For nearly 40 years now, however, it has been torn apart from outside and within. Part of the within was around back in the day, its not a "nation" as we tend to think of it. It was always very regional, perhaps tribal, in many ways. Other parts of the within have been made worse by outside influences.
good money in the heroin trade
... rights are overrated anyway. Whats really important is Ron The Bear being able to sleep at night and not being scared of the reds under the bed, i mean muslims
No it has not. I made this point to everyone I knew the day we entered it.
Further dilution of civil liberties:
Police Who Pre-Emptively Kill Suspected Terrorists Will Be Protected
The NSW government is set to introduce new laws by the end of this month which give police immunity for pre-emptively shooting a person they suspect of terrorism, even if that person does not pose an imminent threat to others.
Afghanistan one of the most advanced nations in the world? Really? Is this true?
terror is not even spelled correct. what is the israeli phonetic spelling?Honestly, I couldn't give a **** about any missing girls in Nigeria or any other country for that matter' when it comes to forfeiting the safety and civil rights of me and mine to religious nutters.
The whole thing has been a complete ****ing racket!
the media act in symbiosis, this is their bread and butter.I get your point bc, but I have had a gut full of my freedoms being eroded for this bullshit.
Rob is a very good man.
Definitely not in the business of selling out his clients, like a few others I could mention.
He was once being groomed by the Labor Party for high office, but he told them to jam it when they sold out on law and order issues to engage in cowboy politics with the liberals.
Spends most of his time doing pro bono human rights cases these days.

Police Who Pre-Emptively Kill Suspected Terrorists Will Be Protected
The NSW government is set to introduce new laws by the end of this month which give police immunity for pre-emptively shooting a person they suspect of terrorism, even if that person does not pose an imminent threat to others.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian announced that she will support all 45 of the recommendations from the coronial inquest report into the Lindt Café siege, and will prioritise those which give police more powers and protect them from civil and criminal prosecution.
New South Wales Police Commissioner Mick Fuller acknowledged that police already have the power to “shoot-to-kill” people they suspect of terrorism in situations analogous to the recent London attacks – where they pose an imminent threat to public safety.
However, he feels that situations like the Lindt Cafe siege are a grey area, as it was unclear whether Man Haron Monis was going to act upon his threats.

Gordon was CEO or Chair of Slaters no?
Gordon was also from Footscray with Stary, just a coincidence wrt the name of Slater and Gordon....
Not really. We get nothing back from America.
That said if we're starting wars with the middle east. Then it might've been good in hindsight to ban their people from coming over here, just incase it bites us in the arse later..
Either ban all form of muslim migration from the date of our first involvement over there, or don't go to war. Not very smart, and not very considerate to citizens in Australia.
