Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, November 30 Question: Australian politicians rejected it, it is absurd!
Xinhua News Agency reporter
Recently, media around the world, including Australian newspapers, reported on the news that Australian soldiers killed local inhabitants in Afghanistan, and the investigative report published by the Australian Defense Forces also confirmed these atrocities. However, when the spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry posted a cartoon condemning the atrocities of the Australian military on his personal social media account, Australian Prime Minister Morrison asked China to apologize, which is surprising. .
Soldiers from their own country do evil in other countries, but they don’t let others say it, and even apologize to those who condemn such cruel crimes, it is so unreasonable and ridiculous.
One of the absurdities is that an apology is required to convey the facts. It is a blunt fact that Australian soldiers committed serious crimes in Afghanistan, but some people in China condemned them, but Australia believes they have been offended. What is the logic? Indeed, the Australian Army atrocities were confirmed by the Australian Defense Department investigation report, and the Australian Defense Forces Commander Campbell held a special conference to present the content of the report. The details revealed in the report were shocking and gruesome. They included shooting adult men and boys together, or blindfolding and slitting their throats; two 14-year-old boys were cut up and put in their pockets and thrown into the river; some low-level soldiers were forced to shoot. Killing POWs to gain experience in “manpower” … so all kinds of outrageous, damned, what’s up?
The second absurdity is that the whole world can condemn Australia’s atrocities, but China cannot. The Australian media themselves reported on the atrocities of the Australian army, and public opinion around the world was in an uproar. Some Australian politicians, including Australian Governor David Hurley and former Prime Minister Rudd, have condemned these atrocities. The “most embarrassing” in Australian military history Comments such as “one page” have appeared in the newspapers and the Australian government has never asked the media or politicians to apologize. Now that the Chinese side raised this matter, the Australian side was furious, reluctantly and loudly demanded an apology. What is the reason for doing this? !
In the final analysis, Australian politicians are so irrational … The root of their thinking is the arrogant mentality of double standards. On the one hand, some Western countries, such as Australia, often have no choice but to admit their mistakes about their own human rights blemishes, but they always point the finger at the so-called “human rights issues” of other countries, showing a constant arrogance. On the other hand, even if they are stained, some people may say it, but if the Chinese say a few words, they will immediately stand up and be stubborn.
The fate of the Afghan people is also fate. What the Australian government should do is think deeply, bring the perpetrators to justice and present a formal apology to the Afghan people, rather than fight back and demand an apology from a third party who relayed the facts.
