					<description><![CDATA[I am shocked by these comments and heartened by the Rabbis. I have worked in this area for 11 years. No person should be subjected to what happens to asylum seekers. Human rights apply to all people. To make assumptions on the basis of race or religion is called... racism. Jewish people should be ashamed to do such a thing.

The Torah enjoins us to welcome the stranger. It is about decency, not politics. Bless these Rabbis.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The RCV&#039;s posture is, oh so populist and PC, but it misses the mark. 

The economic invaders are not like Jewish refugees were in times gone by. They are not even like the Vietnamese who could not stay in their own country for political reasons and who were rejected by China to which many had ethnic ties.

Nauru is nothing like the concentration camps where Jews were tormented and murdered, nor even like the camps set up for Syrian refugees in Jordan and Turkey.  

Finally, the government is perfectly correct in securing our borders and shutting down the smuggling trade. And as far as abuse is concerned, the human rights industry is largely faking that but where it does occur it only points to people who we do not want in our country.]]></description>
