Well I think you have to hand it to the Americans, they really know how to kick it to those terrorists. This week brings the news that Australian David Hicks has finally been formally charged with terrorism offenses. About bloody time! We have to send a strong message to other would-be terrorists and what better way to hold a suspect in Guantanamo Bay for 5 years before managing charge you with the convincing crime of ’providing material support for terrorism’. In most countries, supporting the local economy is called tourism so be aware of this if you ever happen to travel to exotic locations as Birmingham and Preston. I’m hoping the Australian Federal Police will be nicking a good many American tourists who buy cheap rip-offs of Aboriginal art and charge them with ‘providing material support for shysters’.
