    Don't know what the pay is, but it's not enough.

    Australian commander killed in Yemen – reports | The New Daily
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    He might have been appalled at the litany of sub-human treatments that ISIS were handing out, and decided to do something about it rather than sitting at home and posting something on FaceBook.

    He might be a passionate supporter of human rights, and wanted to get hands on.

    Whatever - at least he had a crack instead of sitting at home and uselessly gnashing his teeth.

    Was it a good idea - probably not. Could easily have got himself killed. So he was lucky to get out unscathed. Maybe he'll get jailed.

    But when you're young you do dumb things. I don't see anything "Anti-Australian" in it.

    The Kurds seem to be the most effective ground troops fighting ISIS, although the Iranians are probably pretty good, but that is hidden.

    We simply don't have enough eyes on the situation. Don't know who he was really fighting, how he was fighting. No doubt no rules of engagement, no adherence to any conventions Aust is a signatory to.

    Doesn't matter what his intentions are, it's his decision, he went out on his own. He can face the consequences if there are any. He is not a soldier.
