Bashir: Al l lies

Propaganda Monster | 03.03.2005 22:50 | Anti-militarism | London | World

George Dubya Bushit's anti-libertarian Republicans, John HoWARd's fascist neo-Liberals, Kim Beasely's well-paid loser's, and the Bali bombing survivors have merely been temporarily appeased. Indonesia is compelled to give out favours and consideration for the gratitude and prestige handed out to it in return on a Silver Plate. In short saving face is a farce!



Bashir handed
out as a trophy
on a silver plate
for George Dubya?,
and John HoWARd?.
(Rooters)

Abu Bakar Bashir is a Preacher and a Teacher and not a terrorist leader as pro-government media are broadcasting.

Wake up to yourself and live in the truth Australia because we cannot accept the spin, propaganda, and lies that some people in this country are prepared to report and swollow.

Bashir was given a sentence allegedly because he was supposed to have over-heard something about a plot?

Even if it that were true, are our ears guilty of hearing?

But it wasn't true and the appeal will clear his name.

George Dubya Bushit's anti-libertarian Republicans, John HoWARd's fascist neo-Liberals, Kim Beasely's well-paid loser's, and the Bali bombing survivors have merely been temporarily appeased. Indonesia is compelled to give out favours and consideration for the gratitude and prestige handed out to it in return on a Silver Plate. In short saving face is a farce!

The fascist HoWARd Federal Government wants the prosecution to appeal against the jail sentence handed down to an Indonesian cleric convicted of 'hearing about' the Bali bombings, which killed 202 people including 88 Australians.

Muslim cleric Abu Bakar Bashir, who has been described as the spiritual leader of terrorist group Jemaah Islamiah (JI)?, but is a Preacher and a Teacher but still he has been given a two-and-a-half year jail term? Why was that? Since when if it were true did hearing something become a criminal offence?

The chief Judge said Bashir had conspired with key bomber Amrozi over the attack? But he did not conspire at all. This is the spin because he was found guilty of hearing a conversation so where is the link between hearing and conspiracy?

The court found him not guilty of organising or inciting the Marriott Hotel bombings in Jakarta.

Fascist war criminal, Foreigner Alexander Downer says the prosecution had hoped Bashir would serve eight years in jail and yesterday's sentence will not satisfy Bali victims.

That's because nothing will satisfy the Bali victims.

Downer: "We come from the perspective from being a country that lost 88 citizens in the Bali bombing," he said.

"We feel very passionately about what happened to our people and we'd have hoped the sentence would have been longer.

"For there to be a longer sentence the prosecution would have to appeal and we would hope that the prosecution would appeal."

But fascist CIA foreigner Downer would say those things because he's something to hide!

He feels very passionate about it along-side the victims because the Bali bombing was the excuse Downer needed to go to war on Iraq.

WE WANT THE TRUTH THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH SO HELP ME GOD!

Downer says Australia's ambassador in Jakarta has already passed on the Government's concern.

"He (Bashir) could have ordered that bombing didn't take place and chose not to," he said.

"In those circumstances, we think him ending up with a sentence of just two-and-a-half years is a short sentence."

But Downer could have just as easily have ordered that bombing or visa versa - together with the CIA or Mossad and is likely to have done so to cause Australian's alarm and affront right on their doorsteps.

In those circumstances, we think because he has already committed war crimes against humanity Downer is more likely than Abu Bakar Bashir to have been involved.

Downer should be charged along side his fascist war criminal cronies and sent to The Hague War Crimes Tribunal to be tried. Not ending up being charged with his war crimes is no justice at all.

'Listen to the well paid losers'

The federal Opposition. Beasely's well paid losers also says the sentence is inadequate?

Opposition foreign affairs spokesman Kevin Rudd says the sentence is a bitter blow to families that lost loved ones in the bombings.

"A jail sentence of 30 months is not in any way adequate for a man whose organisation, Jemaah Islamiah, has murdered more than 200 people, including nearly 100 Australians," he said.

"Our view is that this sentence is totally inadequate."

'Listen to the folly'

Democrats leader Lyn Allison says the leniency of the sentence will damage relations between Australia and Indonesia?

"Relations between Australia and Indonesia are going to be strained," she said?

'Listen to Enough is never Enough'

Eric De Haart, from the Coogee Beach Dolphins Rugby League Club in Sydney, was walking to the Sari Club when the bomb went off.

He also says the sentence handed down to the cleric is not long enough.

"At the end of the day how much is going to be enough?" he asked.

"The guys will never come back so no matter how much he got it's not going to make a great deal of difference to me or perhaps to the parents, apart from giving us some sort of satisfaction that he's going to suffer a little bit as well."

But in the grand scheme of things this is a person who would never be satisfied and no one can blame him but he is being used here quite well by propagandists to have you believe the story and draw on emotional Eric De Haart strings.

Get the violin out because no one should be found guilty of hearing something and no claim was ever substantiated that Abu Bakar Bashir was in any way shape or form linked to terrorists.
