Australian government outlines pro-market agenda for its Pacific sphere of influ

28-06-2006 21:28

Neo-colonial occupation
The publication of “Pacific 2020” is part of the same process. Given the tiny economies of the Pacific islands and East Timor and their reliance on international aid and trade, these countries will be pushed into implementing its agenda—one way or another. Significantly the report was released a month after the publication of a “White Paper on the Australian Government’s Overseas Aid Program” which explicitly links aid to economic demands. If the threat of aid cutbacks fails, then the countries risk being branded as “failed states” and face the prospect of neo-colonial occupation, as in the Solomons and East Timor.

The USA pushes Australia into the arms of China

28-06-2006 14:33

The Zionists in Washington (Perle, Wolfowitz etc) have the entire Bush regime distracted. While America fights all of Israel’s major wars in the Middle East – to no advantage whatsoever for America – the most strategically important regions in the world are left to other nations.

About Palast: 'Was the Invasion of Iraq A Jewish Conspiracy?'

27-06-2006 11:15

An article now published by journalist Greg Palast reads more like a failed attempt at shifting the blame. Or a survival act by the writer. It's not the journalism we are used to from Palast. Now the 'goys' are to blame? This item, which anyhow was published under his name, is definitely not kosher.

Part 1: Operation Knockout in Diyala Demonstrates US Collusion with Death Squads Death Squads

In November last year Sunni members of the Diyala provincial council began to boycott meetings in protest at a 13 November raid on the provincial capital Baquba and surrounding towns, according to a report [Google cache version] by UPI's Pentagon correspondent, Pamela Hess. According to a US military official, the boycotting council members sent a letter to the chairman of the council in which they alleged that that raid had been orchestrated by the Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) as part of a plan to disenfranchise Sunnis during the upcoming elections.

Mission Accomplished? I don't think so

23-06-2006 04:11

We're seeing the first signs that the American mainstream media is begining to report that there are questions about September 11. And will try to manipulate the argument away from US Government onto the Saudis and Islamic Fudamentalists.
There's also evidence that American TV viewers are moving away from NeoCon media outlets such as FoxNews.

East Timor president Xanana Gusmao was to visit China this month to cement the deal, but this has been blocked by the Australian military.
