Free West Papua Campaign: Press Statement

09-11-2006 07:14 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Repression | World

Having conceded to Indonesian demands, the Howard Government has squandered an unprecedented opportunity to push for overdue reform in West Papua. The proposed security agreement is nothing more than a cynical handshake with the Indonesian military, a recognised source of instability within our region.

Skellig Michael: The Denial of History as State Policy

06-11-2006 22:27 | Analysis | Culture | Ecology | World

The Skelligs Rocks, 8 miles off the coast of Co. Kerry, constitute one of only two UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Ireland. However, the Office of Public Works (OPW) is currently engaged in reconstruction work there. On the South Peak of Skellig Michael, an altar, dating probably to the ninth century, has been destroyed by unsupervised workmen. In addition, there has been extensive rebuilding carried out on the main complex, which has led to considerable damage to the original structures. The work has proceeded without an Environmental Impact Assessment; while the Department of the Environment and OPW have argued that, because the Skelligs are a national monument (thus covered by the National Monuments Act 2004) and because the current work is part of an ongoing programme of conservation dating back to the 1980’s, neither an EIA nor planning permission is necessary.

Saddam Hussein’s death sentence: a travesty of justice

06-11-2006 18:16 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | World

The death sentences handed down yesterday against Saddam Hussein and three other prominent figures in his regime are the outcome of show trial concocted for political purposes. Amid unspeakable atrocities being committed against the people of Iraq every day by the US occupation forces, a hand-picked court has condemned the former Iraqi dictator to die. The very timing of the sentence is an attempt to lift the electoral fortunes of the Republican Party in Tuesday’s congressional elections by energising its right-wing base with the prospect of a high profile legal lynching.

AUSTRALIA: Walk against warming

05-11-2006 12:58 | Analysis | Ecology | World

But because our people are loving and forgiving people who know that we are all part of the creation if people want to come unite with us then they too will be led to safety by mother earth and creator spirit through nature as we done this before from stone age dinasour age and ice age right through to the next age.

AUSTRALIA: Xenophobic rocket launcher, so why was it reported really?

05-11-2006 11:39 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Anti-racism | World

Police say they are unsure if the claims, published in a 'Sunday newspaper', are true and they are now being investigated. [So why was it reported today by howard's 'abc' and the 'Melbourne age'?]

US Military Media Turns On Rumsfeld on Eve of Elections

04-11-2006 10:55 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | World

In the run up to next weeks mid term elections, the Bush administration is facing massive domestic pressures to change direction on Iraq. Neocons are distancing themselves from the 'incompetent' policy of the war in Vanity Fair, and the military itself appears to be rejecting there own commanders.

This editorial will appear in the Army Times, Air Force Times, Navy Times and Marine Corps Times on Monday under the headline “Time for Rumsfeld to go”:

John Kerry’s Reality Attack

03-11-2006 03:41 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | World

In that strange inverted land called America politicians who tell the truth risk ridicule and reprimand; John Kerry has been attacked by the opposition and members of his own party for stating the truth regarding the intellectual capability of some military personnel in Iraq. 'And they all screamed foul' – only in America!

Beatings and Sugar Plums: New Labour's War on the Kurds

Early morning on September 5th security guards burst into the sleeping quarters of Colnbrook detention centre in west London. The guards had come to take thirty two Iraqi Kurdish men away. Barefoot, handcuffed, with the guards swearing at them, the thirty two were taken to RAF Brize Norton. Their threatened forced deportation to Arbil in northern Iraq was imminent. In response, one man slit his throat and up to fourteen others took overdoses or cut themselves in a desperate attempt to avoid "removal". One eye witness described the scene at the holding area at the airport as "carnage with blood on the walls".(1) The Kurds knew the danger of returning to Iraq. They had fled the country years before because of that danger.

Israeli Left-Right Divide Unmasked as Phony

02-11-2006 12:11 | Analysis | Palestine | World

Avigdor Lieberman’s ascent to a strategic executive role in Israel has unmasked the artificial divide between left and right and revealed the mainstream ruling elite as still in consensus on the Zionist goals, a fact that rules out any credible peace process in the foreseeable future and dooms peace and left, until a forcible outside intervention could enforce a de-Zionization of peace-making.

Australian media seizes upon Muslim cleric’s comments to whip up xenophobia

02-11-2006 07:28 | Analysis | Anti-racism | World

There is now an inescapable necessity for all those opposed to militarism and war, and committed to the defence of democratic rights, to develop an independent political opposition to the xenophobic campaign being directed against Muslims. No faction of the media or political establishment has any opposition to the drive to militarise society under the banner of “Australian values”, and all are complicit in the cultivation of anti-Muslim communalism.

Community urges war criminal to give himself up and resign!

He is telling other people to be responsible yet he has committed war crimes against humanity amongst other criminal acts and is not in any position to dictate to the Australian people. Why would people listen? Who would trust a criminal? Get out of the House!
