Australian jailed in Lebanon, Ruddock hanging out!

Ruddock and Carr make a big deal out of a military court's findings in Lebanon where evidence is obtained under duress?

Fascist Federal Attorney Phillip Ruddock has his tongue hanging out like a dog on heat because of the military court's decision in Lebanon where a Beruit court has jailed Saleh Jamal on terrorism charges allegedly taken while under duress?

But why does this mean so much to Ruddock? Because Ruddock, ASIO, the AFP and Bob Carr are desperate to find some evidence to prove that there is a link to Bilal Khazal, and Terror.

New South Wales Premier Bob Carr says a man charged over a shooting at a Sydney police station will be returned to Australia once he is released from jail in Lebanon.

Carr's desperate to prove that Saleh Jamal shot at the police station in Lakemba but the community is desperate to find out (if he did) why he did it? At that time the NSW police had set up War Lord like activities in Sydney's South West including Cabramatta.

Bilal Khazal, who has been charged with facilitating terrorism, was granted bail and will face a Sydney committal hearing in June? But like all the rest of those people held in "AA" isolation with the worst of the worst convicted Ruddock and his agencies have no concrete evidence unless it has relied on International findings in Military Court's or Third World Countries where evidence simply cannot be relied upon.

A court in Beruit has jailed Saleh Jamal for five years with hard labour for allegedly plotting subversive activity with individuals in Lebanon's Palestinian refugee camps?

He was arrested in Beirut but did Phillip Ruddock's links to Lebanon ensure he was charged there? Could he have influenced the decision made by the authorities? You Bet!

Pro-Government version: "He was arrested in Beirut and initially charged there with having links to Al Qaeda and for involvement in a bombing in Damascus in 2004, but those charges were dropped."?

In Australia, he is accused of involvement in a drive-by shooting at the Lakemba police station in New South Wales in 1998. But that doesn't mean he was guilty! He fled Australia on a false passport while on bail, but wouldn't you if you were a Muslim living in Australian in the context of the vilification and racism in this country? And if he were innocent and thought he was being set-up for a noble cause?

Carr says even though there is not a formal extradition treaty in place, arrangements have been made for Jamal to be returned to Sydney once he has served his sentence in Lebanon.

Perhaps Bob Carr should come clean on his real motive! Like the sensationalism of terror to promote his draconian Terrorism (Police Powers) Act 2002.

Carr: "I've been advised that Interpol has alerted the Lebanese authorities to the outstanding issues in Australia," Mr Carr said. "On his return to Australia, New South Wales police will present evidence to the courts alleging his involvement in the shooting of the Lakemba police station."

So that the feds can then go on and claim that Bilal Khazal is a terrorist even if the evidence linked to him is false and misleading! Right Bob?

In other developments:

Khazal jailed in Lebanon, bailed in Sydney?

Fascist Federal Attorney Phillip Ruddock has his tongue hanging out like a dog on heat because of the military court's decision in Lebanon where a Beruit court has jailed Saleh Jamal on terrorism charges allegedly taken while under duress?

Here we go again!

And Bilal Khazal, who has been charged with facilitating terrorism, was granted bail not 'awarded bail ' like he's won the lottery purported by HoWARd's ABC and Pro-Government Media and will face a Sydney committal hearing in June.

Up there Khasali: Innocent man new bail laws

The New South Wales Supreme Court has asked innocent man Bilal Khazal to increase to amount of surety offered, before the bail is formally continued.

ABC: "But he was today sentenced by a Beruit court to 15 years jail, without having to appear on charges of arranging false documents for another Australian who has been jailed in Lebanon."

Because Ruddock, ASIO, the AFP and Bob Carr are desperate to find some evidence to prove that there is a link to Bilal Khazal, and Terror.

Ruddock says Mr Khazal will not be extradited until he has faced an Australian court.

"There has been a request by Lebanese authorities for his extradition, that's still being processed," he said.

"But obviously, in the meantime, him being the subject of charges here, then he would not be free to be extradited."

Hicks, Habib denied natural justice: Liberal MP

A federal Liberal MP has accused the Government of not doing enough to secure a fair trial for Guantanamo Bay detainees, [prisoners], David Hicks and Mamdouh Habib.

The Member for Wentworth, Peter King, says the two Australians have been denied natural justice.

The Liberal backbencher says the Government is not safeguarding an independent foreign policy and protecting the rights of its nationals.

He says the Australian Government should have demanded more legal concessions from the US.

"The United States should not judge for itself what constitutes a national security threat and deny natural justice to those it accuses of terrorism, otherwise the trial will look like a Star chamber without proper rules," he said.


"This is absolutely unacceptable."

He also says it is a distortion of international law for Hicks and others to be held indefinitely at Guantanamo Bay.

"As an Australian national and a human being he's still entitled to a standard defence that shows the world that the principles we take for granted in our legal system are basic and should be enjoyed by all," Mr King said.

Mr King has not revealed whether he plans to run as an Independent at the federal election.

Hicks and Habib in the Melting Pot

Big enough now and we're gonna keep stirring, stirring, big enough.

Australia: The United States has brought three, [alleged], criminal charges against Australian David Hicks, accusing him of conspiracy to commit war crimes, attempted murder and aiding the enemy, the Pentagon has said.

But Mr David Hicks is really just a scapegoat for the Coalition of the Killing's resource war's in the Middle East, and he's being exploited, imprisoned and tortured. A after two years at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba most people would say that was harsh punishment for being in the wrong place at the wrong time and being accused as a war criminal during a war of "some sort" in Afghanistan.

Take a pinch of white man, wrap it up in black skin, add a touch of blue blood and a little bitty bit of Red Indian boy.

David Hicks appeared to be getting on with his life exploring his wisdom like all young men and now he is no threat to anyone, especially once he had learned about the critical situation he just happened to be in 'the wrong place at the wrong time'.

Mr David Hicks has been bagged, bashed, tortured and kept in solitary confinement in extraordinary prison conditions. He never killed anyone, so who was he supposed to have attempted to murder, or is this some sort of mystery?

Curly black and kinky, oriental sexy, If you lump it all together, well you've got a recipe for a get along scene.

David Hicks was captured in Afghanistan in late 2001, then renditioned to Guantanamo Bay, and will face trial before a US military tribunal, [?] although no date was set, the Pentagon said in a statement.

Mr Hicks, 28, and another Australian, Egyptian-born Mamdouh Habib, have been held without charge at the US naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for more than two years.

By the way, what did Mamdouh do? Nothing as well? Oh does that mean he just lingers in Guantanamo Bat until he dies, because the US failed to find charges?

Oh what a beautiful dream, if it could only come true, you know, you know.

The Pentagon also confirmed earlier statements by the Australian Government that US prosecutors will not seek the death penalty against Mr David Hicks.

Is that because David Hicks is a scapegoat for the propaganda machine, the US, and that they would choose to spare his life? Good gracious what a bonus! If you serve the war effort they will spare your life!

What we need Is a great big melting pot, big enough to take the world, and all it's got. Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more, turning out Coffee coloured people by the score.

And it follows the US will charge their enemy with indictable charges whether their true or not to demonise them like Moqtada al-Sadr and use this great propaganda to defeat them.

The Pentagon alleges Hicks attended Al Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan and conducted surveillance of the US and British embassies in Kabul.

[Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

Perhaps he trained somewhere but conducting surveillance of the US and British embassies in Kabul that's just 'twist' the 'spin'.

They find some person who fits their ideal profile and they just exploit them.

[War criminal], Australian Prime Minister John Howard would like a few more sacrificial lambs for his election slaughter and that would validate his excuse for his war on terror, [?], that is actually a great war on liberty and resources in the Middle East, screwed around.

Just add that to the melting pot!

Now the US are trying to exploit our election and after we told, [war criminal], George Dubya Bush to pull his head in. Deputy Secretary of State, [war criminal], Richard Armitage had a go trying to bribe us and then that other idiot US secretary of state, [war criminal], Collin Powel bought into it as well.

JI assassins hunting for Australians

AN assassination squad of Jemaah Islamiah terrorists, [USA demon], is believed to have slipped into Indonesia to target Australian diplomats, businesspeople and other Westerners.

[Just plain rubbish fear-mongering and propaganda.]

Courtesy of the George Dubya Bush,[?], because we told him and his loser gang to pull their heads in and get out of our Federal Election.

If those fears don't work just watch the bombs go off.

David Hicks is the third Guantanamo prisoner to be charged.

"The defence team intends to fight these allegations, and that's all they are is allegations, to the fullest extent that we're allowed to and the resources that are provided to us," said Marine Corps Major Michael Mori, the military lawyer named to defend Hicks.

"It's unfortunate these allegations will never be tested in a fair and established justice system. There's just a complete lack of the independent judiciary and the independent appeals process that are the backbone of any criminal justice system we're used to. It's such a departure from fundamental fairness," Major Mori told Rooters.

Major Mori said the allegations show his client did not injure anyone.

"I think they're [the charges] a little weak and I'm wondering where the worst of the worst are," he said.

"David Hicks was labelled in the media that he's one of the 10 most dangerous men in the world and yet he's not charged with actually physically injuring anyone."

Rabbis and the friars, bishops and the gurus. We had the Beatles and the Sun Gods, a long time ago, it's true. But then it really didn't matter, what religion you chose, no, no, no.

Statement

The Pentagon statement said "military commission procedures provide for a full and fair trial," [?], including the presumption of innocence, a requirement of proof beyond a reasonable doubt to secure a conviction and an opportunity to present evidence and call witnesses. [?]

[Again, just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

Critics have noted the entire process is controlled by the Defence Department, including the appointment of the panel that will hear the case and a review panel to which any appeal would go. Unlike normal US military courts, there is no right to appeal to a civilian court in the military commissions.

Two months after the, [USA, CIA, reichstag, call to arms, false flag], September 11 attacks, President George W Bush authorised military trials of non-US citizens caught in what he calls the global war on terrorism.

[Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

Mick and Lady Faithfull, lord and Mrs Graceful, you know the living could be tasteful. Why don't we all get together in a loving machine? I'd better call up the Queen, it's only fair that she knows, you know, you know.

Mr Hicks was held at Guantanamo for more than two years before being charged with conspiracy to commit war crimes, attempted murder by an unprivileged belligerent and aiding the enemy.

[Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

The Pentagon said Mr Hicks attended Al Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan and conducted surveillance of the US and British embassies in Kabul.

[Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

Prosecutors said David Hicks travelled to Afghanistan in January 2001 to attend a variety of al Qaeda training camps after earlier joining a paramilitary organisation fighting for Albanian Muslims in Kosovo and an Islamic extremist group in Pakistan.

[Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

Prosecutors said Hicks met with Al Qaeda leaders including Osama bin Laden and Mohammed Atef and performed tasks including translating Al Qaeda training materials from Arabic to English.

[Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

In February, the Pentagon charged Ali Hamza Ahmed Sulayman al Bahlul of Yemen and Ibrahim Ahmed Mahmoud al Qosi of Sudan.

What we need is a great big melting pot, big enough to take the world and all its got. Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more, turning out Coffee coloured people by the score....Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just add that to the melting pot!

Channel Nine Judge finds Saleh Jamal Guilty?

Why would a man carry out a shooting attack on a police station in Sydney's south-western suburbs? Because police wouldn't give him a licence? Because police owed him money?

Such an important question could easily be overlooked especially if he escaped to Lebanon before a public inquiry in NSW.

Now the man is allegedly linked as reported by Ch/9s new Judge, 'Who's Who', to international terrorism, [in other words another scapegoat for the Coalition of the Killing's resource war's in the Middle East], and the politics of fear-mongering.

Perhaps we won't get to the bottom of the NSW allegations of Shooting at a Police Station.

Perhaps the most important question for the citizens who reside in this state could be overlooked by Bob Carr and Police Minister John Watkins, now the alleged offender has escaped from his bail obligations.

Perhaps our honest police could be more forthcoming giving us a reasonable explanation for the alleged shooting?

CH/Nine: Two Australians are reportedly due to face a military court [?] in Lebanon charged with, [alleged], offences which include raising money in Australia for, [alleged], terrorism in the Middle East.

Channel Nine reported that Saleh Jamal has confessed to funding terrorist acts in the Middle East using finances recruited in Australia. So who's who at Nine? When did the Nine networks take over national and international public prosecutions? Or is this what a military Judge told them?

So if I said shit was blue then Ch/Nine would also report that shit was blue if of course it suited them to report the same.

The question is do they have an interest to report the politics of fear for the Howard Government? And sadly the answer to that question is yes!


Allegedly, Jamal left Australia on a false passport while on bail for charges relating to a shooting attack on a police station in Sydney's south-western suburbs.

Shooting attack for what? Did the police owe money for drugs? Or was he disgruntled about the service?

The report says Jamal has also named members of a Lebanese-based Al Qaeda group, [? a fictional USA demon], travelled between known terror units, [? keywords: terror units, cells, plots, links, jihad, training camps etc...], and has, [allegedly], confessed to assisting in a recent bombing in Syria. [?] Says Channel Nine's newly appointed Judge, 'Who's Who?'

A second Australian man, 28-year-old Haytham Milhem, is also said, [? alleged], to be facing the military court. [a what? A military court? What's that?.]

Judge 'Who's Who' failed to get Haytham to give himself up but the two men can be held in custody for up to six months and that should be enough to get Mr Milhem talking.

Meanwhile, New South Wales Premier Bob Carr says the Federal Government is entirely to blame for Jamal fleeing Australia while on bail. Carr has faced questions in Parliament about how the man got bail.

Jamal was granted bail by a Sydney court back in 2001 despite the judge stating that the firearms charges he faced amounted to "urban terrorism". Key word: "Terrorism". Politically correct in the politics of fear perpetrated by our man, [war criminal], Phillip Ruddock.

But what about urban police corruption? Shooting attack for what? Did the police owe money for drugs? Or was he disgruntled about the service?

Why would a person launch a shooting attack on a police station in Sydney's south-western suburbs? Perhaps police didn't pay him his drug money? More interesting than the alleged terrorism charges in Lebanon wouldn't you think?

More than likely it was in the police best interests to help him get away and therefore no reasonable inquiry into the shooting would follow.

Or perhaps with or without this man being in custody in Australia we can still make those inquiries to find out why this man decided to shoot at the police station? Do the police have any ideas they would like to share with the community? Not likely!

The judge said it would take years for the case to go to trial because of legal complications and he should be granted bail with strict conditions.

But facing questions about the fact Jamal got bail, Bob Carr said the only reason the man fled the country was because of a lapse in border protection. [Just plain rubbish and propaganda.]

Carr: "You don't try to make a political issue out of this when the Federal Government is entirely to blame for him leaving Australia," he said.

A political issue it is both for Ch/Nine and the Federal Government who want to win an election. Bob you could have seen it coming. Any alleged terrorist is a gold mine for Howard and he will promote this as he has done time and time again using corporate media propaganda cells like Ch/9.

Rest assured Ruddock will have a direct line to CH 9's Judge 'Who's Who' and the other judge in the Military Court, [?] in Lebanon to insure the propaganda suits the current climate here in Australia.

The trial in Lebanon of a Sydney man facing terrorism charges in a military court has been adjourned. Saleh Jamal appeared in a military court in Beirut and requested a lawyer to represent him, prompting the 48 hour postponement.

Australian consular officials are assisting him and another Australian being held as terror suspects. [Scapegoats for the Coalition of the Killing's resource war's in the Middle East.]

[War criminal], attorney General Philip Ruddock will not comment on claims Saleh Jamal and Haytham Milhem have been charged with offences which include, [allegedly], raising money in Australia for Middle East terrorism, because Ch/9 and Judge Who's Who can adequately do that for him. Ruddock has told ABC program Lateline there is little he can say about the case. [but promote it?]

Ruddock: "We are aware they have been detained, we are aware that there were claims they were both Australians," he said. "We've undertaken consular examinations with them to obtain details of their documentation and our obligations in relation to them." Ruddock wants New South Wales to change its bail laws after one of the men used a false passport to flee Australia.

Good excuse anyway changing the bail laws again, not that it will affect the rest of the citizens who happen to reside in NSW? All this because of an alleged failure by the Federal Government or the NSW police service? Ruddock told the ABC that law changes might have stopped Jamal getting bail in the first place. [As well as everyone else?]

"The law in New South Wales has a presumption that people ought to be released on bail," he said.

[a presumption of innocence?]

"Where serious criminal offences are involved and where security, "terrorism" issues are involved, it seems to me the presumption ought to be in the reverse. [guilty]

"I understand New South Wales is looking at that."

[As I understand it, if Saleh Jamal was shooting at a police station in Lakemba then the police should come clean about the reasons why? Was it because the police owed him money? Was it because he was disgruntled about the police service? Did he have the green light to sell drugs for police? Did that go wrong? Did Jamal carry on as if he was above the law? What gave him that notion? Did police let him escape, because it was in their interests to let him go?]

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
The Separation of Powers Doctrine is nowcontaminated witharangeofcolours, now leaving us with a black shirt on a once blue bridge that crossed that thin blue line. The 'Amery and Woodham show'.

Same boat
The Premier, Bob Carr, relies on a militia. A gang of bikies and our Police Service, to show all of us he is no murderer. He should be taken to the task along with his partners in crime like Clive Small to account for those people who like my self have been maliciously assaulted and who have complained, without any service and those who cannot speak for themselves who were murdered, like Terry Falconer. Terry murdered in custody.

Good Cop
Why have our democratic institutions broken down? It's not just the criminal justice system. The Anti-Corruption Network webmaster@anti-corruption-network.org exposes the same issues. A group of white-collar workers who say they have suffered as follows:

Partners in crime - history!
Roger Rogerson, the old hero, who never faced a result in the Lanfranchi, or Huckstepp murders, was let off in my opinion when the New South Wales Government rolled the legal system (deciding what evidence to give the police prosecutor) to have the jury believe the illusion they (the Government wanted to create).Similarly, Peter Ryan facing the Police Integrity Commission for questions about his involvement in the demise of the dysfunctional reform unit. Chess in the court (rolling the legal system).
