As India is being devastated by COVID-19 cases that have
now passed a daily rate of 400,000, affluent and callous
Australia has taken the decision to suspend all flights
coming into the country till mid-month. The decision was
reached by the Morrison government with the blessing of the
State Premiers and the Labor opposition.
Not happy
with banning flights from India, the Morrison government
promises to be savage in punishing returnees who find ways
to circumvent the ban (for instance, by travelling via a
third country). Citizens who breach the travel ban can face
up to five years’ imprisonment and fines up to AU$66,000.
Mike Pezzullo and Giving War a Chance Dr. Binoy Kampmark | May 1, 2021 [addthis tool= addthis inline share toolbox above ]
Those madly titillated by conflict have become bolder of late in the corridors of the isolated Australian capital. In such spaces, insanity can be nurtured with a sickening attention to detail, much of it fictitious. One of the most powerful bureaucrats of the Australian Public Service has made a contribution to a war dance he regards as virtually unavoidable. Mike Pezzullo, Home Affairs Secretary, is keen to shed some blood in combating the China Menace if needed.
The outcome of this wish is always vicarious: others die so that bureaucrats may shuffle papers, consult minutes and scoff the scotch. This is then justified on the basis that sacrifices are necessary to defend that indefinable property called freedom.
