SarahStewart_9 What will lone wolf Russians do to Westerners in America, Europe, and on my land interferring with the affairs of the Russian State? SarahStewart_9 They don’t give a f about us Aussies and yet we keep flocking there for holidays to stimulate their economy. Wake up SarahStewart_9 So he gets early release after having helped kill more than 200 people but most of the Bali 9 drug smugglers will never get out of jail and two were shot dead by firing squad for a crime committed while they were barely out of childhood. Make it make sense.
