There is absolutely no chance of any Indonesian politician confecting outrage at this appointment to garner domestic support at our expense. That sort of thing only happens in Australia.

“Perception”? Why should Indonesia take exception to Cosgrove getting this gig – would we give a rat’s if Bashir got something similar?

Major Mistake? We hope he has kept his Privates in line? He knows Rear Admiral Funny Business-Jones & Petty Orificers Hardly and Blurt are on his side so that is a bad thing right there. He is an obvious choice as the other Queens representative for Operation Insult the Pacific Rim and has already shot at a lot of them.
The Kredlin has spoken, and, as usual the answer was bring in the military. Look out Toyota employees.
