David Hicks a 'very lucky man'?
The American military prosecutor who prepared the case against David Hicks says the [tortured political scapegoat under duress whose now an alleged] self-confessed supporter of terrorism? Got off lightly?
But in my imagination, There is no complication, I dream about you all the time? In my mind a celebration? The sweetest of sensation? Thinking you could be mine?
Mr David Hicks is expected to be brought back to Australia within the next week to serve out the balance of his nine-month [implemented] sentence at Adelaide's Yatala prison.
But, in my imagination, There is no hesitation? We walk together hand in hand, I'm dreaming, You fell in love with me? Like I'm in love with you? But dreaming's all I do? If only they'd come true?
Colonel Mo Davis says David Hicks is lucky to be flying home from Guantanamo Bay and lucky to be facing only a nine-month [implemented] sentence.
I should be so lucky, Lucky lucky lucky, I should be so lucky in love?
Davis: "He got off lightly, I think if you look at comparable sentences for similarly situated individuals prosecuted in the US, he's a very lucky man," he said.
It's a crazy situation, You always keep me waiting, Because its only make believe, And I would come a-running, To give you all my loving, If one day you would notice me.
The Australian community says that you and your administration are lucky not to be facing the International Criminal Court of Justice for war crimes against humanity.
My heart is close to breaking, And I can't go on faking, The fantasy that you'll be mine, I'm dreaming, That you're in love with me, Like I'm in love with you, But dreaming's all I do, If only they'd come true?
So far you got off lightly, we think if you look at comparable sentences for similarly situated individuals prosecuted in the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity, you and your corrupt friends are very lucky men indeed, we say.
I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
I should be so lucky
I, I, (I, I)
I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
I should be so lucky
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Statement of demand to Howard
John Howard must repudiate the deal as it was illegal - done under duress and with an illegally constituted tribunal which didn’t conform to Australian standards of justice. Any confession is obviously worthless. That on the same basis that having David Hicks meant they could do whatever they wanted to him – and did, now that Australia has him we will treat me with the dignity and respect for legal institutions that we should always do.
Not to do so would be a cringe to US dominance and acceptance of disrespect for the Coalition of the Killing partnership which put our lives in jeopardy to allegedly defend the US after their false flag attack of 9/11.

On the basis that no one believes the 'official' reasons for his torture and subsequent 5.5 prison term. Shame Howard, shame on you!

The monster said… that those people had to die and they'll have to lock people up if they disagree. So we say… well lock us up then. And they do! Then they go off and continue to do the killing while people are locked up. Because that was the right thing to do - because they were just terrorists and you were just a wild animal that doesn't understand capitalism and the way the system works. I know! We'll stop the war in Iraq? But Afghanistan is okay so well just keep on building democracy over there?

Australians have become a victim of terrorism
The John Howard government's terrorist antics have been the most dangerous acts of aggression on sovereign nations for 200 years. Why wouldn't people fear some form of retaliation or false flag terrorist act now? What you do is what you get! So why do it? Why take the risk? Then tell us about the risks because of what you do? Who should be scared? John Howard should be scared at the next election. We should be scared that he was elected last time and that the mass media power help reinforce that fear by propping up a war criminal and his governments terrorist antics.

THE POLITICS OF CRIME IN AUSTRALIA TODAY
How is it that Prime Minister John Howard can accuse other people of some crime or lies? No, you do not need to be clairvoyant or have any special supernatural talents to meet up with or to see one of the more see-through inhabitants of politics in Australia today. You just need a strong heart and an eager mind. While other people, who are being accused, belittled, tainted or desecrated by numerous criminal politicians and their media allies. Politicians who don't lead us by any form of example and who break their own morals, principals, values, and ethics. Politicians who break their own laws in order to deceive us and to suit their own political ends.

Senior lawyers accuse Australian government of war crimes over Guantánamo
The demand for the laying of war crimes charges against Howard, Ruddock and Downer should be taken up by ordinary working people throughout the country. The government’s ongoing treatment of David Hicks, and its defence of the illegal US military commissions, constitute a threat to the democratic and legal rights of every Australian citizen. They demonstrate the real face of the so-called “war on terror” and are a warning of the equally repressive measures being prepared at home against government opponents.

Both of them obtained law degrees predicated on the belief in the presumption of innocence. They are a blight on the profession,” Birrell wrote.

Hicks: Major Mori speaks
According to Mori, All it would take is for the attorney-general to make a telephone call [to Washington] and David would be coming home. But the Australian government has a political problem, he said, because for five years they've labeled Hicks an accused terrorist or a terror suspect. Theyve admitted that if Hicks was brought home they could not charge him with anything because he has not committed a crime under Australian law. Mori believes the Howard government is still hoping the US will do the dirty work for them.

Homegrown war criminal's 'a serious problem in Australia'
Jump, scream, run and hide the muswims are coming to get you! Everywhere I turn there is another terrorist. I opened the sugar bowl this morning and there was a terrorist cockroach just waiting to get me, after stealing my sugar mind you. So we must be very alert and very alarmed. How else would a war criminal get re-elected after a holocaust and what looks like a third interest rate rise this year? Mostly, Howard's goals can only be attained, amongst other things, if he pushes race hate buttons and whilst you continue to live in fear.
