Victorian Bushfires - Black Saturday “Mass Murder”
Black Saturday - The Victorian Bushfires that occurred on February 7th 2009 had by Monday February 9th been officially declared as Australia’s Worst Ever Natural Disaster. Some 100 plus lives and 800 homes had been lost at the time of this news report, and as it stands today the death toll is 211, with 2000 homes destroyed and these figures are still climbing. Our Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, clearly shaken in the video describes the Victorian Bushfires as “Mass Murder” with regard to the fact that some of the fires were deliberately lit.
The devastation that has been set upon Victorians due to the Bushfires of Black Saturday will last for many years to come. My prayers and thoughts go out to all of those affected by this tragedy.
