The Iranian government is dragging these young women back to Iran and it is likely they will be punished for the actions of their team mates. At least one of them was literally physically dragged, according to a witness.

I don't know what would happen if this were America. At this moment, the State Department might step in, but if we were not actively in conflict with Iran, I don't know if Marco Rubio would act. Someone should have gotten on that bus, read them the Australian law on seeking assylum and given them a chance to do so.

I have to applaud these protesters. Yes, they are blocking traffic, which I have deplored in the past. But . . they are blocking a specific vehicle being used in the kidnapping, not random people trying to get on with their lives. They are not spitting on police, blowing whistles, getting in police officers' faces or kicking police vehicles, and probably not carrying guns.
 
Horrific. Those women may be raped, forced to march before other women as examples of the price of disobedience before being killed.

Australia has brought dishonor on itself.

There is no doubt that they will be raped, and tortured. They may wind up being beheaded on soccer pitch right before a game to set an example.

The leadership of Australia showed what cowards they are by letting those women face the "severe punishment" promised by the Iranian Regime. They are 6,000 miles from Iran well out of range of any retaliation.

If this were America, they would be given sanctuary by the rest of us while democrats bitched and tried to force them home.

If Australia had any balls, which the don't, they would offer these women sanctuary.

I mean, the joke that somehow any country cannot protect these girls from forced removal by Iran is absurd. The ONLY reason Australia has caved is out of fear for muslim retaliation. THAT is why many muslims immigrate to the west, not to get freedom but to carry and plant their flag in other countries for political influence.
