Why doesn't Australia take its "fair share" of these people, considering our actions in invading their countries are one of the major reasons they need to flee their homes.

There were a lot even before the shooting started in October 2001 in Afghanista and March 2003 in Iraq.

Ahhh, so they`re all Iraqi terrorists, or Taliban killers that were displaced by our action against them? That being the case, you needn`t wonder why they`re not wanted here.

So according to YOU, everyone from Iraq is a terrorist and everyone from Afghanistan is a member of the Taliban. You need to get out more, pops.

I said nothing of the sort. Your feeble marsupial mind has once again misconstrued, and totally ballsed up the simplest of notions. The wiring in your head must be strikingly similar to that of a trip hammer.

and your point? we take way less than our fair share compered to Europe and the USA or even Canada, why?
We are the 6th richest nation in the world, per capita,according to the international monetary fund, but come in at 77th in terms of refugees per gross domestic product per capita. In real terms, this is 1.1 refugee per 1000 inhabitants and 0.6 refugees per GDP per capita.

What exactly IS our 'share'??

We take 13,770 per year...how many are we supposed to take per year??

The Department of Immigration website indicates that as at June 26, there were 4116 people in immigration detention. In terms of global rankings, Australia comes in at 68th in terms of refugees per 1000 inhabitants and 77th in terms of refugees per gross domestic product per capita. In real terms, this is 1.1 refugee per 1000 inhabitants and 0.6 refugees per GDP per capita.

Hardly our fair share at 68th in terms of refugees per 1000 inhabitants ,when we are the 6th richest per capita.

ANd my point? We do not have a 'fair share' of illegal arrivals, we do not have to take any. They are not here as a conseqence of AUstralia's participation in the wars. We have not invaded Sri Lanka or Iran but half the dead off Christmas Island were Iranians.

There is no link between being a rich nation and being a destination for boats. Kuwait, Singapore, Brunai, Japan, the UAE are not taking refugees even though they are richer than us.

International Monetary Fund (2010)[1] World Bank (2009)[2] CIA World Factbook[3]
Rank Country US$
1 Luxembourg 104,390
2 Norway 84,543
3 Qatar[4] 74,422
4 Switzerland 67,074
5 Denmark 55,113
6 Australia 54,869
7 Sweden 47,667

Wrong again ,swallow, none of those countries are richer than Aus per capita.Not according to the international monetary fund.
