Hope for Schapelle

Wow if the news service is correct here it appears Schapelle was granted clemency by the Indonesian Leader. Reports say she might be home by as early as August or December. This is good news whether or not you feel she was guilty or innocent. Get our citizens out of these third world backward living prison systems!

Riots in Bali Jail

The Bali 9

No book reviews this time, just watched "The Condemned" documentary (link provided below) and I feel so sorry for Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran stuck on death row with no date of execution. It sounds like the Bali guards can come anytime and take them away to get executed...all for smuggling drugs! OK yeah they were very stupid to attempt that in an asian country but they were kids aged 18 to early 20s. And they deserve to die in a third world country that for some reason our government feels no need to go in and gets our citizens out? When Indonesians get in trouble overseas their government goes full on into it until they get them back, but we here in "multicultural Australia" can't do that as it might offend our neighbours...I think they need a special forces covert team to go in there and get them all out, including Schapelle. It wouldn't actually be that difficult as long as the government here denies involvement.
