Are we related ?

Your kidding, right?  I thought H was a American company and it only  
operated in the city it was incorporated in, to the benefit of the  
local economy.  Is there a law on the books that I missed, that  
changes the reality of 1 + 1?   I was told that corporations bring  
jobs to the place where they are located and that job security and  
peace evermore is what I should expect from altruistic corporations.   
And that I shouldn't put any trust in individuals as they are always  
trying to deceive you.  That Scott Parkin, who does he think he is to  
act on his own inspiration! Can you spell I-R-O-N-Y?

Australia has a very bad history of forced immigration and emigration!

Political rant follows:
  Today my government is deporting an American peace activist, Scott  
Parkin, for being a threat to our national interest. He has been  
participating in some peaceful protests about Australia's involvement  
in the occupation of Iraq, and in a protest outside the office of  
Haliburton in Sydney. The new security laws do not require any  
specification of the grounds for deciding that someone is a threat,  
and apparently Scott Parkin has not even been told what he is  
supposed to have done. I guess Haliburton doesn't like the attention.

We have lost a lot of moral ground and civil freedom since John  
Howard became friendly with George W.

I dare say I will be deported now...
