In July 2011, Bryan Law from Cairns , north Queensland / Australia ,
travelled to Rockhampton central Queensland to the biannual "Operation Talisman
Sabre" live fire military exercises involving 20,000 U.S. and 7,000
Australian military troops. The exercises are based on invasion and
counter-insurgency scenarios. Australia has a long military history of
servicing British and U.S. military aggression in Aotearoa, Sudan, South Africa , North Africa, Malaysia, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
Bryan publicly declared his intention to disarm a military helicopter
gunship. He was arrested for making this declaration. This
recording is an excerpt from the police record of interview that preceeded him
being initially charged for "the threats". Much of the youtube imagery is from Bryan 's
home and beautiful tropical hometown of Cairns .
Near the end of the interview, the police ask Bryan why he did not go to Australia 's capital Canberra to lobby politicians to stop the war on Afghanistan ?
Bryan replies "Politicians are not going to do this for us!
1. They don't want to!
63% of the Australian people oppose this war, that translates into two votes in the
House of Representatives and everyone else votes in favour of continuing the war.
And even if they wanted to stop it, I don't think they'd know how. I think most of the politicians we have today, couldn't find their bum in the dark - even if they had a torch, a friend and a map!
So I don't go to Canberra and ask useless, corrupt politicians to solve this problem for me they are not going to do it.
People themselves are going to solve this problem!"
After being released on bail, Bryan in broad daylight tricycled on to the runway of
Rockhampton Airport and disarmed an Australian Tiger attack
helicopter.
