horrific and funny at the same time :) I think its romanticised but basically the ugly truth of the Oz nuke program .. not as pretty a story as one might like, and the people of Maralinga are still angry about it to this day, with good reason. It routinely gets brought up when Oz discusses its uranium mining and weapons programs, and as one of the most tragic interactions between the original inhabitants of Oz and the “invaders” as it were, and as a criticism of the Menzis’ govts basic callousness towards the locals .. Id like to say its no longer an issue .. but australia still has some long ways to go to rectifying things with the locals, and maybe some things never can really be made right .. our conservative “Liberal” party still refuses to even publicly say SORRY for the many injustices heaped upon them! words cost little, why be such dicks about it .. lol ok .. rant over
