Abbas NazariGUEST
We'd, we'd now kind of made friends with other families and that, that had, you know, journeyed, and some people had spent years on the road to get to this point.
Abbas NazariGUEST
Some people had made multiple attempts at a crossing, essentially crossing the Indian Ocean to get to this tiny island called Christmas Island, which is an offshore territory of Australia's.
Abbas NazariGUEST
Essentially, it's considered as part of the mainland.
Abbas NazariGUEST
And, um, for us, it was our very first time.
Abbas NazariGUEST
And so we get on board.
Abbas NazariGUEST
We get on board and, and, and, and essentially by the time the sun is up, this thing is out there in the open ocean and everyone is incredibly happy.
Abbas NazariGUEST
Everyone is incredibly- Joyous and, and buoyant because this was it, this was the final stepping stone, right? Just, just point the compass south, and then you'll hit, uh, Christmas Island, right? Um, and that was it.
Abbas NazariGUEST
It was a promise to be less than a two-day journey, just overnight, and you might be there the next day.

One of them, which was just so tragic, but something that I became involved in for a number of years in different forums was the crashing or the foundering, I think they called it, of a vessel at Christmas Island that had crashed onto the rocks.
Karina BergerGUEST
And there was a very large loss of life.
Karina BergerGUEST
These were asylum seekers who were on a vessel that was caught up in really big seas.
Karina BergerGUEST
And people who lived on Christmas Island and the authorities took a lot of steps to try to help this vessel and guide it into shore, but they couldn't and the vessel ended up disintegrating and many, many people drowned.
Karina BergerGUEST
I think probably about 45 people died and It was just a really shocking incident and a coronial inquest was held into that matter.
Karina BergerGUEST

Mick RavenHOST
Even if the globalists aren't pushing it in some areas, they want it, so they're not going to get the governments to oppose it, which is why we have a nanny state of do-gooders that are politically correct saying, "No, we've gotta let them in.
Mick RavenHOST
We've gotta look after them." Look at the mess we had in Australia with Nauru and that whole, "Let's send them to an- Christmas Island off the coast of Australia, and we'll just stick them in there and quarantine them forever." And that's what happened, and that became an issue too.
Mick RavenHOST
So every country's got its own problem.
Mick RavenHOST
But I think now what is starting to happen is the governments aren't getting...
