And why do they all sink so easily ?

If I was a people smuggler I would like to deliver my cargo and go back and do another run ?

But perhaps they make enough on one run

My guess is that they are opening the cocks so that boats start to sink so the Aussie Navy will go to their rescue !

cheaper to not deliver them.

1285835 2012-07-04 04:48:00 They are usually small fishing vessles, not suited for the high seas. After a good pounding for a week they probably start to split open and take on water. Over crowding doesn't help. They are lucky they have have naval comms and can get hold of the aussie coast guard. I must say, the aussies have some pretty funny names for their ships, HMAS wollongong :D The Error Guy (14052)

I have compassion for the Palestinians who are under occupation.
These people coming to Australia are only economic refugees who are queue jumping their mates back home.
My compassion is running on empty for queue jumpers. Ever wondered why boat people never landed in Brunei?. Like people who don't need to know below decks please. Then the lovely sound of an Oerlikon .

Actually park a sub off shore from Indonesia and sink them as they leave. It would stop them pretty quickly.. The Indonesian Gov needs a good kick up the but as they just turn a blind eye to this stuff..

1285840 2012-07-04 07:46:00 Yes If I was the captain of one of those aussie navy ships I'd put her in bottom gear, or whatever the opposite of full steam ahead it.

If a few more boats sank, they may stop buying tickets.

True, the Indonesian government obviously don't want them either.
