"There have been many things written about Andrew Chan and Muyran Sukumaran since their execution, and much is yet to be written.
Some recent comments have made them out to be heroes or martyrs.
Neither is true; they just made some stupid decisions. There remains, however, the suspicion that their deaths may be tied to the war on terror.
By all accounts, both men brave in their final hours, and there is no doubt they seem to have been genuinely rehabilitated.
However, neither was a hero. A hero is someone who voluntarily does something brave for the greater good, or in service of others. Soldiers in war, or emergency service workers who risk their lives in a crisis, are heroes.
Heroes do what they do out of choice, and some die so doing. Chan and Sukumaran were not heroes. They were only volunteers in their fates in that they chose to run drugs. And running drugs is certainly not in anyone's greater good."
