The devastating trauma and abuse inflicted on children held by Australia in offshore detention has been laid bare in the largest cache of leaked documents released from inside its immigration regime.
More than 2,000 leaked incident reports from Australia’s detention camp for asylum seekers on the remote Pacific island of Nauru – totalling more than 8,000 pages – are published by the Guardian today. The Nauru files set out as never before the assaults, sexual abuse, self-harm attempts, child abuse and living conditions endured by asylum seekers held by the Australian government, painting a picture of routine dysfunction and cruelty.
Next time some clown from Down Under tells you how much better their country is than the US, how they treat everyone equally and welcome refugees and all that BS...just show them this.

Been going on for years.. I remember hearing about kids sewing up their mouths like 2 or 3 years ago. The right wing nationalist xenophobic isolationists love what the Aussies have done, and yet ignore the clear human rights violations..
What have the Aussies done that isolationists love? As for the human rights of Islamic terrorist, I could not care less.

Putting refugees in a camp on an isolated island far away from the homeland.
And who the hell is talking about Islamic terrorists?

What Australia has done is criminal, and the UN is currently looking into this situation.
I'm imagining this is as stunning to the Australian civilian as it is to us. But must admit I hadn't realized they have what amounts to detention centers for asylum seekers. Definitely gives one pause. Thanks for posting this. Most of us would never have known.

I have no complaint with the detention center, but the treatment of the people needs to change.
Australia is one of the hardest places to emigrate to and they control who comes in.
What are they supposed to do with people that show up on their doorstep demanding to come in?
What do we do with those people?
Who are we?
They go back to their countries.
Nauru is one of the most awful places in the world. For years, every citizen received free money from the island's main economy, bird poop. Thousands of years of bird poop = phosphates which were extensively farmed from the island. At one time Nauru had an airline (I worked with the former Chief Pilot) that was a financial disaster and would be crippled whenever the president wanted to go somewhere. They owned two skyscrapers, one in London, one in Honolulu (nickname: "birds$%t tower"). The money was flowing, and then...they ran out of phosphates, and it is a disaster of a country. And, it is not a pretty little tropical place, its a flat, hot, ugly place that doesn't get much rain, so its far from lush.

Refugees are called refugees for a reason. Just say'n.
Yes but they don't have any right to show up anywhere they want and demand to be let in.
Australia has very strict conditions on immigration, which is their right, and these people do not qualify.

What's wrong with sucking on lemon?
The Aussies know what they need to do, so should we. If some don't agree, too bad.
