IRAQI interpreters given asylum in Australia after working alongside Australian troops during the occupation of their country say they feel short-changed by the Federal Government since arriving in Australia two months ago.Read it all. Some of them are going home. Seems their lives are not in that much danger after all.
The interpreters, who faced persecution in Iraq and were branded traitors by many of their countrymen, feel they have been dumped in Australia with little help or prospect of work.
They say they were promised jobs, immediate health care and moderately priced housing...
"In Iraq we worked together. Here they don't seem to want to know us."
Resettled Iraqis left feeling dumped
