Missed The Point!

Comments by Dudley High School Manager Reverend William Lucas in the FT article titled "Students Barred From NZ Trip" is most unfortunate.

The good Reverend must understand that the purpose of NZ's smart sanctions is to discourage the military and IG from continuing to participate in the unlawful takeover of a democratically elected government.

The smart sanctions are intended to send a clear message to everyone who has played a role or continues to play a role in 5/12. That message is to cease your involvement in these unlawful acts or you and your family will suffer.

The intention is to force families of military personnel to convince their fathers and mothers in the military to oppose King Bai's unlawful actions.

If stopping a few children from travelling to NZ will help return Fiji to democracy, stop human rights violations and bring an end to our coup cycle, then surely it must be worth it!

The good Reverend needs to get his head out of his ass and see the bigger picture.

There are more important things at stake here than a school trip to NZ.

The smart sanctions are afterall intended secure a brighter democratic future for all the children of Fiji.

Bananasinpyjamas' green galahs should have listened to what the Aust & NZ commisioners were saying 5 months ago instead of trying to read between the lines. Maybe they would have heard mention of travel bans on military people and their family if there was a coup d'etat.

"If you do the crime, you do the time."

It is hilarious that Bananasinpyjamas is upset as some innocent kids can't go to NZ. I notice that he has nothing to say about the whole school of kids not being allowed to go to the sports' day because the wife of one of his henchmen said so.

Things will only get worse for the fools (and their families) who support this illegal junta.

I just looked at TV1 news on the net.

One story was about that some people had noticed a large number of cars outside Bananasinpyjamas' house this morning.

I was amused with the spin that the green goons told the reporters; it was Bananasinpyjamas birthday.

So all the senior military officers came to have a piece of cake at 6 in the morning and sing Happy Birthday.

Pull the other leg; it plays Jingle Bells.

A few blog sites have different reasons for the gathering.
