John Howard in Asia![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Our fearless leader does Oz proud! John Howard was ‘surprised’ when he encountered the President of Indonesia, while taking his early morning walk in Jakarta, reported News Radio Australia. The report stated that Howard was “visibly shocked” by the unexpected encounter, which obviously was intended to deliver a clear message; the Indonesian President is not known for taking early morning walks, we can therefore conclude that his gesture was calculated. The ‘strong’ posturing of Howard regarding limiting the activities of the terrorist, Abu Bakar Bashir, became his usual gastric discharge when faced with the reality of a man to ‘man’ confrontation. The grotesque imp, Howard, ‘caves in’ yet again! Howard now accepts the reality as dictated by the Indonesians regarding the Muslim cleric. Howard’s overt about-face on the issue has raised the usual smirks and expressions of disgust from Asian and other world leaders who are no longer surprised by the very visible cowardice of the Australian leader. |
