I think it is interesting that you have to exhaustively search the entire universe of global media, and finally get to the Brisbane Times before you arrive at an article that expresses this opinion.

Gutsy for the author to write this and for the Times to print it.

Let's pray we don't see their guts spilled over this display of chutzpah.
