Sick of Hicks
Hands up if you're sick of hearing about David Hicks' every move?
I thought for a bit of sanity last night, I'd watch the news on SBS. They're just as bad as the rest! They spent the first 10 minutes talking to their reporter, who'd "had a chance to speak to David Hicks' lawyer". And what was the burning question? "How was the flight?". Who gives a rats? And then "what did he say when the plane landed?". The first sensible question she asked was "what are his plans for the legal actions he is currently taking against the Australian government and others". Of course he has dropped them. Speculation followed on why. Hmm, perhaps it was part of the deal? No, it was because he felt that the Australian taxpayer, having footed the $500,000 bill for the transfer had paid enough. Stuff me, what was the in-flight meal like on a $500,000 flight?
Then, to add salt to the wound, the headline story on smh.com.au this morning is "Hicks Enjoys Australian Breakfast - David Hicks had a breakfast of cereal, toast and coffee, but ate alone, on his first morning in an Adelaide jail."
You have got to be kidding me. This is more irritating than when Nicole Kidman comes out here for a holiday.

Yeah that was one of the other comments on the news "he was escorted from the plane wearing a bright orange jumpsuit, similar to the one he wore in Guantanamo Bay. Hicks had changed into it before boarding his flight." They report stuff like that when Nicole Kidman comes out too.
But what shade of orange was it? I mean are we talking pumpkin, tangerine or freakin' pomegranate? And what was the material? Cotton drill? Calico? Gaberdine?

Why can’t we put him in a Qantas 747? Give the bastard business class if they really have to.
We just can't spend $500,000 every time we want to bring someone home. So whos next then? Schapelle Corby?Visit my website at www.myFineWoodWork.com

Reading one of the articles I thought the problem was the U.S. government refused to let him leave the country on a commercial flight. Having been in solitary for the best part of five years his chance of terrorism contacts must be minimal at best, surely he could have been cuffed and chained to a couple of big ugly blokes and sent back Qantas cattle class. I doubt Hicks cared if it was in a horse box he must have been pretty happy he has only one more Christmas dinner before he is let go. What gets me he was on our side in Yugoslavia and that was just fine with our lot then, but when he joins the Taliban doing the same thing he becomes a mercenary who is to dangerous for society. As far as I am concerned anyone who heads anywhere to kill is to bloody dangerous full stop and its about time we stopped being two faced on these issues.
