Letters from Nauru

[j*oono]

Both major parties have pledged never to allow the authors of these letters to be resettled in Australia.

Letter 14

“This is a will for a lady who was trying to commit suicide”

My darling, I apologise to you deeply that I’m leaving you. My nice husband, I love you, again and again I begged Jesus but I don’t know why the Father has forgotten us as He forgot the Jews in the Second World War.

My kind husband, I’m leaving here to open heaven’s gate. To you and others, please excuse me.

I’ve never understood the meaning of this sentence: “The one in authority is God’s servant to do you good” (Romans 13: 4).

We have always respected the law even when we were near to death, were fleeing.

We are seeking refuge in a country where there is a lot of wisdom, compassion and freedom among its people, but their rulers have stone hearts. They were called but they don’t know Jesus, they are spending people’s money imprisoning and torturing women and kids in detention.

Do you remember living a year in 45-degree heat with a small fan? Sometimes with no water to drink and shower.

Do you think my soul will go to my parents? If you could talk to them, tell them, “Your daughter will come to kiss your feet.”

I’ve been crying a lot which causes me headaches, my darling, my darling, I love you, I love you, I will be waiting for you in a peaceful place. Don’t rush, I am counting the time, but don’t rush!

I’m not worried about my body, you know what to do!

I love you.

I will ask the guy I know who manages one of the camps about what he knows about the letters.

And of course to suggest they get shut down.

My mind is fully open.

As per my post above, it is very clear.

We don't need to do anything for them, they knew what was what,
either go home or stay in the camp or apply through normal channels.

I've been to Nauru.        The local natives don't live much better.

It's all perspective IMO

Had a girlfriend who got a teaching job on Nauru in the late 60's.

She learnt to drive on the airstrip ( 200 yards approx ).

Needless to say when she arrived back she was a danger to the public.

I don't know why I posted this topic.  Maybe I just wanted to see the reaction.  Keep your mind shut and your head in the sand.

Yep, same old, same old attitudes surfacing.

And then they **bleep** and complain about being stuck on a tropical island in 40 degree heat (which I know about as a bloke I know manages one of the camps and I have spent many an Xmas in NT in 40 degree heat / 80+% humidity with no aircon.)

Don't always have electricity so probably need one of these

What would you like me to say to the Manager of the camp on Nauru ?????

I can put the questions directly to him ?

I can ask him to extend the showers if you like ?

4 Minutes OK ?

Which BTW, is weird considering it is the start of the wet seaon and it pours with rain

for nearly 4 - 5 months of the year. I wash myself in them in  the NT.

So
Fire away.

[cmcoins2000]

Made this for you myself.

[aps1080]

Wow, that is awesome. Why did you make it ????

The Male peacock at a neighbours house (in the NT) got taken by a dingo so now they only have some females left.

He had a great tail.

It "beggars imagination" why anyone wants to come to a country with ANY people with attitudes seen recently.  But I think they know what the majority are like.
