Sunday Telegraph: U.S. Organizing Terrorism Against Iran

27-02-2007 01:38 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

As should be expected, the Sunday Telegraph, as a neocon newspaper formerly associated with Baron Black of Crossharbour, aka Conrad Black, has sugar-coated this terrorism against the Iranian people, dismissing it as “pressure” against the “Islamic regime” the neocons accuse of working feverishly on nuclear weapons, an allegation completely devoid of any evidence, that is beyond the Brothers Grimm fairy tales invented by the neocons.

Howard Government intent on Refoulement of Sri Lankan Asylum Seekers

26-02-2007 21:45 | Analysis | Migration | Social Struggles | World

85 Sri Lankan asylum seekers were rescued by the HMAS Success last week and taken to the new high security detention facility on Christmas Island. Pamela Curr, from the Melbourne based Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, said "The Australian government must now abide by its signature to the Convention on Refugees and access these peoples claims fairly. They must not be transported to Nauru so that Australia can avoid giving them access to legal advice and refugee processing."

Democrats reinforce “war on terrorism” lie

26-02-2007 12:37 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

In another display of true colors, the Democrats are considering legislation to limit the Bush administration’s war powers in Iraq to “fighting Al-Qaeda.”

This deception clearly demonstrates, once again, that the Democrats are politically and morally bankrupt -- and every bit as enthusiastic as the Bush administration in spreading the endless “war on terrorism” conquest to every corner of the world.

Eisenhower. Nimitz wait around for 'accidental war'

26-02-2007 11:56 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

“While the [USS] Eisenhower is ostensibly assisting US operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, it is the looming threat of Iran that increasingly occupies its attention,” writes Damien McElroy for the UK Telegraph. “Recent tensions between America and Iran over Teheran’s attempts to develop a nuclear weapon have raised the prospect of its third regional war in a decade.”

Fabricated charges dropped against East Timor’s former prime minister

26-02-2007 08:54 | Analysis | Repression | Social Struggles | World

Without charges hanging over his head, Alkatiri is now free to campaign on behalf of Fretilin. Murdoch’s Australian, which played a prominent role in vilifying Alkatari last year, sounded a warning in an editorial on February 7 that “Mari Alkatiri’s return could further destabilise East Timor”. There is no doubt that the Howard government, with the assistance of the Australian media, will be working to ensure his defeat—by all available means, including further provocations.

When Superpowers go Rogue

26-02-2007 08:19 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Other Press | World

History records instances of powerful, belligerent nations invading and annexing weaker nations in their bid for world domination and plunder. Various pretexts are utilised to justify these attacks/invasions, the most familiar and infamous are the USS Liberty attack, the Tonkin Gulf incident and more recently the imaginary WMD 'threat'. These examples have one thing in common; they are all orchestrated in order to harness the public as a manageable resource to be used and abused by prevailing powers and to justify an otherwise illegal invasion or military aggression. Nations bent on world domination are extremely predictable; world domination is the folly of a powerful military and inept leadership – history is familiar with a multitude of conquering clowns known to us today as mass murderers.

Document says 15 Million Australians planning terrorist attacks

25-02-2007 21:57 | Analysis | Repression | Terror War | World

A leaked Australian intelligence document says Australian politicians are facing a greater threat from terrorists than at any time since the September 11 false flag operations by the US neocons in the US in 2001.

The Israel Lobby and the Left: Uneasy Questions

25-02-2007 20:18 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | History | World

It was 1991 and Noam Chomsky had just finished a lecture in Berkeley on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and was taking questions from the audience. An Arab-American asked him to explain his position regarding the influence of America's Israel lobby.

The ‘war on terror’ and the terror of war

25-02-2007 19:10 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

The casting of the ‘‘war on terrorism’’ as a war fought on behalf of or for civilization against some less-than-civilized other -- terrorists and their cohorts -- is a significant point that cannot be allowed to pass unexamined.

Media Alert: Iran in Iraq

25-02-2007 17:49 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Iraq | World

Media corporations have an awesome ability to fail to learn even the most obvious lessons from the recent past. In discussing allegations made against Iran in 2007, for example, it is often as though Iraq 2002-2003 never happened. The same journalists receiving the same propaganda from the same government sources respond with the same credulity and the same indifference to the human consequences.

Killers in the Classroom

25-02-2007 17:37 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Iraq | World

During a heated debate in a class I teach on social justice, several US Marines who had done tours in Iraq told me that they had "sacrificed" by “serving” in Iraq so that I could enjoy the freedom to teach in the USA. Parroting their master’s slogan about “fighting over there so we don’t have to fight over here”, these students proudly proclaimed that they terrorized and killed defenseless Iraqis. They intimated that their Arab victims are nothing more to them than collateral damage, incidental to their receipt of some money and an education.

Evidence of US coercion of IAEA members against Iran revealed

25-02-2007 16:22 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

Demands for an investigation into coercion of nations by the US during the vote against Iran at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), have been growing following the revelations by a former ranking official of the Bush administration acknowledging that India's votes at the IAEA in 2005 and 2006 had been "coerced."

Are leaders of India, China and Russia ready for a radical breakthrough?

24-02-2007 23:05 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | World

In a thinly veiled critique of US global policies and behaviour, the foreign ministers, we are told, emphasised the 'strong commitment' of the three countries to multilateral diplomacy, and exchanged views on 'how international relations are being presently conducted.'

Their discussions on developments in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, West Asia, and the Korean peninsula, brought out their common approach on these issues, and a global perspective clearly very different from the US world-view.

"It seems that the Australian government is working overtime to get David to plead guilty so everything can go according to their plan. David's unjust imprisonment is now clearly an election liability," added Bassi.

Cheney’s speech at Sydney’s Shangri-la Hotel

23-02-2007 06:18 | Analysis | Iraq | Terror War | World

The American Vice-President, Dick Cheney, today delivered his only address to the ‘public’ at the plush Shangri-la Hotel. He will later meet with the servile Defence Minister, Brendan Nelson and other minor government officials at Victoria Barracks, Paddington. The symbolism of Cheney’s visit in the last days of neo-conservative rule is not lost on Australians; the absence of the Prime Minster, John Howard, from the venue was the most notable aspect of the event!

US Iran Intelligence, Guardian Coverage, "INcorrect"

23-02-2007 03:49 | Analysis | World

It's interesting to note how many "news" outlets can take stories critical of the criminals attempting to start a war with Iran, and spin them into weak, thinly-veiled attacks on Iran. The same happened when Israel's plans for a nuke strike on the country were revealed.

Building these weapons would not justify a war. Only an actual plan to use these, known to the target state, would constitute 'pre-emption'.

Like those leaked about Israeli and US plans to strike Iran with nuclear weapons ...
