Murdochracy, Rudd Labor And Australian complicity In Iraqi Genocide

08-12-2007 11:06 | Anti-militarism | Iraq | Other Press | World

Permitted by king-maker media mogul Rupert Murdoch but not supported by his newspapers in Australia, the new Rudd Labor Australian Government (sworn in on Monday 3 December 2007) will only PARTLY remove Australian forces from Iraq, making Rudd Labor clearly and unequivocally complicit in the continuing Iraqi Genocide (post-invasion excess deaths 1.5-2 million). Rudd Labor is thus renewing Australian complicity in the Iraqi Genocide and going against the wishes of an overwhelming majority of Australians who oppose Australia’s participation in the Iraq War

Iraq: Looking Back: 'Internationally Sponsored Genocide'

28-11-2007 17:55 | Anti-militarism | Health | Iraq | World

As you know, when I was here in April/May 1992, I thought things could get no worse.

Iraq's Laboratory of Repression

23-11-2007 02:53 | Anti-militarism | Iraq | Repression | World

The Bush administration is turning Iraq into a test tube for modern techniques of repression, from sophisticated biometrics that track populations to devastating weapons systems that combine night-vision optics from drone aircraft, heat resonance imaging and deadly firepower from the sky to kill suspected insurgents. The harsh repression surrounding the “surge” has drawn far less U.S. press attention.
