Howard off to US, UK - part 5

Reference: No need to look at part 1, 2, 3, or 4, until you look at part-5!

PART-5- PRIME minister john hoWARd will meet US president george w buSHIT, British prime minister tony blair and queen 'imperialism' herself during a 10-day visit to the United States and the UK next month.

Australian Chronology June 05:

First, we had the Aust-Pakistan Accord? June 14 05.

Then, Gov't-Opposition Advocate Troops To Afghanistan? June 16 05.

Followed by, Houses raided over 'possible' political attack plans? June 23 05.

Then, hoWARd, ruddock, ellison, keelty and news ltd plotted chaos, June 24 05.

And next month, Howard's off to US, UK - Do you follow the pattern? Well, maybe all the dictators of this world are all lining up just to get down to some trade deals? But more likely than not this is agreement time for the Coalition of the Killing!

Similar, I might add to the final resolution handshake made before the illegal and degrading war on Iraq. Including the terrorist allegations made in Australia and abroad prior that war.

A pre-emptive strike here in Australia that could help bolster national security support for the war on terror on the other side of the world somewhere.

This war packed' though also appears to include, Pakistani "Presumer of trade talks", pervez mu-'sheriff'.

So it looks like Australia will be sending more troops off to war in Afghanistan after all - regardless of public opinion - in an alleged democracy.

And considering hoWARd bribes the corporate media giants already and that he now owns the Sin-ate! I'd like to know where the opposition to the government is, besides the rapidly growing peace movement?

And correct me if I'm wrong in today's Un-Australian News this morning, back full circle at 6.06 am - More troops possible for Afghanistan. All low key mind you and didn't make the front page! In fact the original article about sending troops to Afghanistan June 16 05, was hardly seen at all and mentioned only slightly amongst the corporate media giants?

Unlike the 'alarm and affront' brought to the nation as front-page news this week about the terrorist raids in Melbourne and Sydney.

A ploy to no doubt boost public opinion that we have to do something about our national insecurity and 'the fear of being terrorised' from people on the other side of the world, somewhere!

No help from the "Opposition" to stop the war, in sight

Incidentally if you read the article - Gov't-Opposition Advocate Troops To Afghanistan? 16 June 05.

You will note another similar pattern in that article to -

Today's article from the US: Democrats make cowardly retreat on Guantanamo torture.

The Democrats seek not to curb this dangerous growth of militarism, but rather to compete with the Republicans in promoting it. Thus, their principal fire against the administration over Iraq has been directed not at ending the war, but rather at increasing the number of troops and providing them with better arms and equipment.

Sound familiar?

It will be the first time hoWARd has met bushit and blair since all three were re-elected following the Iraq war says, the Daily Terror.

But what does it matter the first time or the second time "since the illegal and degrading war on Iraq"? Incidentally, a war, that killed, maimed and injured over 100,000 innocent men, women and children? It only matters I suppose to get the second part of the paragraph into this article.

hoWARd will visit the US from July 15 to 19 and the United Kingdom from July 20 to 24.

Ambiguous

"These visits will provide important opportunities to advance Australia's foreign and trade policy interests through discussion with the leaders of these two key allied countries -- both of whom who have been re-elected in recent months," hoWARd said in a statement.

At this point he makes it sound just like the Aust-Pakistan Accord up to now it's all about trade?

But don't count your chickens before they hatch!

In Washington, he will meet bushit and senior members of his cabinet, including vice-president dick 'chain-gang' and secretary of the failed State 'condasleezza rice-cream' or should I say creampuff?

She loves us?

hoWARd: "In those discussions 'I will seek to continue our close coordination on the war against terrorism', including through our commitment to the 'rebuilding of Iraq', and our shared efforts to address regional security challenges, including 'North Korea's nuclear weapons program'," he said.

Oh! I see, is that how we "advance Australia's foreign and trade policy interests"? A right-winger wouldn't even buy the second paragraph unless it included the first bit, and the last bit about North Korea's nuclear weapons program makes his trip seem worthy to some I suppose? But if you read between the lines it's all about WAR!

hoWARd: "This will be the first opportunity to meet the new members of the US administration following President Bush's election victory in November 2004."

Notice how he mentions the "first" opportunity like it came from the article above, from the daily terror, first? Or is that just a pro-government right wing media giant trick?

Trade - war - trade - war - she loves us - she loves us not - she loves us?

hoWARd will also take part in a meeting of the International Democratic Union and meet congressional and business leaders to promote trade and business opportunities emerging from the Australia-United States free trade agreement.

"In London, I will hold discussions with Prime Minister Blair and other senior members of the British government, including Foreign Secretary (Jack) Straw," Mr Howard said.

WAR- She loves us - She loves us not!

"These meetings provide an important opportunity to discuss major bilateral and international issues of interest to both governments, including 'progress on economic and social reform', continued close cooperation in international efforts to combat terrorism and weapons proliferation and our shared commitment to assist Iraq's reconstruction."

She loves us?

hoWARd will also have an audience with the Queen and meet British business leaders to encourage further strengthening of trade and investment ties between the two countries.

Well I guess you can make up your own mind about the trip, after all.....?Your guess may be better than mine! But I'd sure hate to be a refugee in Afghanistan I don't mind telling you.

"History will judge us very harshly if we let ourselves be deflected from this task or think we are excused from it by invocations of national sovereignty."

"It is by rigorously upholding international law that we can and must fulfil our responsibility to protect innocent civilians from genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes," Mr Annan said.

Mr Annan has said he would like the rule of law to be a central topic of this year's two week meeting.

CO-OFFENDERS DO NOT REBUFF UN ON 'ILLEGAL WAR'

The 'coalition of the killing's' complicities - the US, Britain and Australia - have insisted that their countries' military action in Iraq was legal after they have committed war crimes against humanity that include pre-emptive strikes on the sovereign nation, occupation, genocide, maiming and torture of any resistance.

War criminal, US President George Dubya Bush has disputed comments made by United Nations secretary-general Kofi Annan that the war in Iraq was "illegal" under the world body's charter, saying that the UN approved the invasion.

So if the UN made the statement then who is George Dubya Bush to argue in the face of the rest of the world that they somehow had received approval for a pre-emptive strike on a sovereign nation, when that had never been legal in the eyes of the world? After all it wasn't George Duby Bushe's statement it was Kofi Annan's and the UN as well as billions of people around the globe.

Australian Caretaker Prime Minister war criminal John Howard also rejected Mr Annan's comment while on the campaign trail ahead of the October 9 election. "The legal advice that we had, and I tabled it at the time, was that the action was entirely valid in international law terms," he said.

Bullshit! You were told so many times your rodent that you should not lie to the Australian people and you knew that the war was illegal and in fact went to war before your alleged tabled advice in anycase.

His view was echoed by Prime Minister Tony Blair's office, which said the British government's top lawyer - Attorney-General Lord Goldsmith - had reached the same conclusion before the invasion was launched in March last year.

 But he was on your side Tony and together with your co-offenders George Dubya Bush and Scumbo John Howard decided to breach International law. Didn't you!

All three governments face elections in the near future.

The US President did not directly address Mr Annan's comments, but he referred to the Security Council's unanimous endorsement in November 2002, of resolution 1441, which warned Saddam Hussein he would face "serious consequences" if he was still seeking weapons of mass destruction.

"The United Nations looked at the same intelligence I looked at," Bush said. "They concluded Saddam Hussein was a threat. They voted by 15-0 in the UN Security Council for Saddam Hussein to disclose, disarm or face serious consequences.

But serious consequences under existing law doesn't mean blowing a country to bits surely? 

It doesn't mean killing tens of thousands of innocent people in order to achieve your goal, surely?

BUSH: "I believe when bodies say something, they better mean it."

The United Nations statement saying Mr Annan's position on the war had long been well-known.

Mr Annan feels it is no different from what he has been saying for more than a year, and that position is very well-known to member governments," UN chief spokesman Fred Eckhard told reporters.

The billions of people around the globe knew it as well. This was a war crime and was illegal and the killing of innocent people and subsequent torture was degrading. 

 Bush suffered an embarrassing blow when the vast caches of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction at the core of his public case for war did not materialise.

The bloody chaos in Iraq and rising death toll among US militants pose a threat to his hopes to win a second term in November's presidential election. After vowing to bring a second resolution before the Security Council, Bush gave up on the effort when it became clear that opposition from France, Russia and other members would lead to a veto.

US State Department spokesman, war criminal, Richard Boucher denied that Washington needed a second resolution after UN Security Council Resolution 1441 and other UN resolutions that preceded it.

"There were, as we've pointed out before, 17 resolutions, including Resolution 1441, that detailed Iraq's obligations, its refusal to disarm and the consequences for non-compliance," he said.

"So we think that was a very solid basis, legal basis, for the war. And that's the basis on which we proceeded."

Bullshit! Once again black is white and lies are truth. Clearly the US was on a mission and invited the Coalition of the Killing and that's what they did and have continued to do. And no matter what anyone said the US and the Coalition of the killing were already killing.

The US ambassador to the United Nations at the time, war criminal, John Negroponte, had said Washington reserved the right to act if the world body did not, but also said that 1441 was not UN authorisation for US military action.

"This resolution contains no hidden triggers and no automaticity with respect to the use of force," he said.

When freedom means occupation, when democracy means neo-liberal capitalism, when reform means repression, when words like "empowerment" and "peacekeeping" make your blood run cold - why, then, "public power" could mean whatever you want it to mean. A biceps building machine, or a Community Power Shower. So, I’ll just have to define "public power" as I go along, in my own self-serving sort of way.

Lawyers condemn Vic police confession tactic..

Old Melbourne gaol

Safe From Harm?

Midnight ronkers, city slickers, gunmen and maniacs, all will feature on the freakshow and I can't do nothing 'bout that, no. But if you hurt what's mine, I'll sure as hell retaliate.

Victoria's legal fraternity has condemned covert tactics employed by police to extract confessions from, [alleged], criminals.

The practice involves recruiting suspects to mock crime gangs and forcing them to reveal their, [alleged], role in past crimes. Undercover police tell them to divulge their, [alleged], criminal history because it could attract unwanted police attention.

[So they might say anything just to big note themselves in front of the gang?]

You can free the world, you can free my mind, just as long as my baby's safe from harm, tonight.

The technique, which was pioneered in Canada, has [allegedly] been successful in cracking several unsolved crimes.

I was lookin' back to see, if you were lookin' back at me, to see me lookin' back at you!

[This also reminds me of the secret, we all make mistakes and we all fall down. But usually these mistakes are made when we are getting our wisdom together.]

Victorian Law Institute president Chris Dale says it strikes at the very heart of the judicial system.

"It completely short-circuits the safeguards that operate within our system to protect people charged with crimes," he said.

Lucky dippers, crazy chancers, seems to be moving fast. What happened to the niceties of my childhood days? Well, i can't do nothing 'bout that, no. But if you hurt what's mine, I'll sure as hell retaliate.

[One way I found not to lose a secret is never to tell a secret that you want to keep. And to trust no one with it, unless you want to give yourself up. Not your mother, not your father, not your auntie, not your grandmother, not even your wife or girlfriend. Then if there is a secret you are the only one with the key.]

I was lookin' back to see, if you were? I was lookin? I was. I was lookin' back to see, if you were lookin' back at me, to see me lookin' back at you!

Victoria Police lost an appeal to suppress details of the technique.

Opposition police spokesman Kim Wells says it is a legitimate investigative practise.

"Victoria police need to use the tactics it takes to bring criminals to justice," he said.

You can free the world, you can free my mind, just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight.

[When or if people turn on you, and you've told them about past mistakes, then you're done, if you have been spilling your guts to them, regardless of how they treat you now. Tomorrow is another day and another mood.]

Victorian police have defended the use of a covert tactic designed to trick confessions out of, [alleged], criminals.

Tell us what it is, dangerous. Friends and enemies, i find it's contagerous, and they're spreading through your system like a virus. Yes the trouble in the end it makes you anxious.

Police Association secretary Paul Mullet says it is a vital policing tactic.

"The vast majority of Victorians won't have a problem because the vast majority are innocent people going about their daily business," he said.

"It's only criminals and particularly the underworld that would have problems with this approach."

[Sorry but if you did that to anyone including politicians and the like you would most likely get a hook into some mistake they made growing up in the past. This is something everyone should be alarmed about.

Let people have their wisdom and their mistakes. Those that don't get caught and who have changed already need not be ashamed of learning because, [alleged], 'criminals' are learners.

The only secret you can ever keep is the secret you kept to yourself!]

But if you hurt what's mine. I'll sure as hell retaliate. You can free the world, you can free my mind. Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight.

Deeds
I am disturbed by Governments 'actions' in relation to shuffling the police service. Clive Small seconded into Parliament like a cocky in a perch. A breach of the fundamental Separation of Powers Doctrine does not in my view allow the thought of intervening, planning, or shuffling to stack the deck of our police service. The one that suppose to be autonomous according to Lord Denning. Where the Parliamentary Secretary can ask the commissioner of police to 'report' then sack him if he is not satisfied with such report.

Truth
Who is telling the truth? Well I guess Dr. Ed. Chadbourne or Mr. Peter Ryan may have the answer to that. Dr. Chadbourne sacked by Peter Ryan and more specifically in my view because he elected deputy commissioners Dave Madden and Andrew Scipione as the best men in the service in relation to his qualifications to make a recommendation in his capacity as human resources.That is if you believe that a Dr. can be corrupted.

Honesty
What is happening between the Police Service and politics is quite extraordinary at the moment. If stand over tactics don't work tell half the truth honestly and follow the example of sheep. Another word for it is sleaze, yeah. Another word for it is workplace harassment. Another word for it is bribing a Police Officer. Another word for it is misleading Parliament.

Tele Tales
Most people I know don't buy the Daily Telegraph. Why? Because of the lies and propaganda purported by them.

Lord Denning
Interesting how a member of the Police Board Mr. Tim Priest would hold grave fears for his safety from dangerous senior police but fails to name them or have them sacked. Rather Priest resigns as if he had no powers. Could that mean what he was saying is that the Governments are also corrupt?

Corrosive
Clive Small is Bob Carr's choice for the new Police Commissioner. It could only be the case considering his, Small's special appointment into Parliament House. Small who suffers from the little person syndrome is the ideal bend over boy who gets shuffled through his corrupt actions. Rolling the legal system for him after the fact, just like his predecessor Roger the dodger Rogerson.

Black Nexus

Terry murdered in custody.

Chess in the court (rolling the legal system).
