Victoria Cross Winner in Fiji Operations!

The most recent Victoria Criss winner is Australia's Ben Roberts-Smith. Mr Smith got the award for his bravery in Afghanistan.

But what has captured LF's attention is the following:

"He was deployed on operations to Fiji in 2004, and has also deployed on Recovery Operations..."

It is well documented that Australia deployed a Task Force in response to Qarase's request for military assistance but the Task Force withdrew from waters around Kadavu after a Blackhawk went into the water killing 2 soldiers.

But that was 2006.What sort of operation occurred in 2004?

Interesting isnt it?

Qarase in Mavana

Qarase Ancestral Home,Mavana Lau, 7 June 2007

Anyone remember Laisenia Qarase? Yup, the bloke who ran the FDB into the ground and then decided to do the same with the Fijian economy. He is still upset the promise made to him by John Howards personal advisor , Mark Textor (see previous blogs) of armed assistance didnt come to fruition.

Lai, being the gullible type that he is , actually believed the Australians. Now, hes looking to the Tongans, Israelis, Solomons, PNG, Mongolians, Uzbeks, Tajiks etc etc etc to save his sorry ass.

Apparently Lai's Mrs , Leba, is doing it really hard too.

You see, Leba was getting used to the taxpayer paid Pajero and the servants waiting for them in taxpayer paid accomodation in Domain.

As for Laisenia Jr, he is doing it even harder as he doesnt have any taxpayer funded cars to drive into the trees along Queen Elizabeth Drive.

Why Qarase Sold out West Papua

West Papuans today are facing a campaign of ethnic cleansing waged by the occupying Muslim Indonesian Army.

The native West Papuans who are Melanesian and predominantly Christian are facing the prospect of being the minority in their own land. At the same time, the resources of West Papua is being stripped off. Freeport mine has virtually destroyed the pristine forests around the mine and poisoned the rivers.

The capital Irian Jaya now has a very sizable Indonesian population who act as military collaborators and are active in suppressing dissent.There is a campaign of ISLAMIZATION in West Papua.

Why doesnt Fiji help its West Papus Melanesian brothers and sisters ? The answer is frightening.

Australia in order to appease the Indonesians who have threatened the allow boat people to sail towards Australia again if its wishes are not complied with, has used its unprecedented influence on Qarase regime to shape its foreign policy.

Qarase was beholden to Australians for their help in getting him elected (see my earlier blogs)and had to repay the favor. So much so, that Qarase even invited the Indonesians to open a consulate in Suva while innocent West Papuans are being raped and murdered.

Qarase was being controlled by a foreign power and had surrendered its sovereignty on certain critical matters such as the West Papuan disaster. If Melanesians wont stand up for fellow Melanesians , who will?

It also helps if your Foreign Minister is married to a European.
