Iran helps kill our soldiers: Britain... yeh right!

With Bush talking up the threat of Iran in the same way he did before illegally invading Iraq we now have the British linking Iran with deaths of British soldiers in Iraq.

Who are they trying to kid. With the recent arrest of two British agents in a car filled with explosives in Iraq the British and the world media have decided to point the finger at someone else. Who really believes these lies anymore. It is the British and the US who are behind these attacks on Iraq's civilians and even their own soldiers...

The [Un] Australian: Iran helps kill our soldiers: Britain

"Six soldiers and two security guards have died in the past three months, all victims of a new explosives technique supplied via Iran, a senior British official said...We cannot be sure" but "there are certain pieces of information that lead us back to Iran," the British Prime Minister said."

Of course the British can't be sure. Because it's a load of bullshit. Just as Iraq having WMD's was bullshit propagated by the press, also Iran's nuclear threat as well. All bullshit.

The US and of course we have to add Britain to this as well are the leading terrorist organisation in the world. Just ask anyone in those countries affected. The US and Britain are quite happy to blow the hell out of it's own soldiers to maintain this hyped up war on terror and as reason to remain in Iraq and the middle east.

Hell the US has even had to go on the defensive about the bird flu as well, by attempting to lie to the world that the Spanish Flu was only recently re-created. Why do they need to do this ? Because they are behind the outbreak just as they were behind the Spanish Flu of 1918.

The truth is out: Bush's new nuclear stance

The truth is out. According to a confidential Pentagon document, the US government's masterplan for total global domination now includes using its nuclear weapons pre-emptively - even in conventional war situations.

A draft of "Doctrine for Joint Nuclear Operations" shows that instead of reducing the role of nuclear weapons as originally promised, the Bush administration is pushing aggressive new policies that are set to become normal US military practice.

The document - the final version of which will go out to all US military commands as 'operational guidance' later this year - was removed from the Pentagon's website earlier this month, prompting a Pentagon spokesman to admit that "even in an unclassified world this is not the kind of thing you want flying around the Internet". Well we think it's exactly the kind of information that people should know about - which is why we've put it up on our website for you to read.

What the document shows is how the threshold for actually using nuclear weapons has been lowered dramatically. For instance, the document seeks to justify pre-emptive nuclear strikes against nations (even those without nuclear weapons) which the US thinks might use chemical or biological weapons against US forces or allies.

It also positions nuclear weapons as just another item in the military's box of tricks, even underscoring the importance of US troops being able to continue functioning in a highly irradiated battle zone. In a chilling finale, "Doctrine for Joint Nuclear Operations" concludes that the United States is legally free to use nuclear weapons pre-emptively if it chooses, "no customary or conventional international law prohibits nations from employing nuclear weapons in armed conflict".

An earlier internal draft of the doctrine was sent to Greenpeace by some friendly soul - it includes suggested edits and comments by all the major military commands (we've also uploaded this version to our website for you). This feuding is interesting, as it reveals strong internal disagreement amongst US military commanders about the new strategy.

The disputes are over the document's enthusiasm for using nuclear weapons in attacks leading to massive civilian casualties. In addition, some commanders expressed extreme doubts over both the legality of the new nuclear doctrine, and that the threats used to justify this new doctrine actually exist. Greenpeace disarmament campaigner Dominick Jenkins said, "These documents should send a shiver down the spine of everyone.

They show that the highest levels of the Pentagon have undergone a major shift in thinking and now view nuclear weapons no longer as a weapon of last resort but a weapon that can and should be used." "This means a US military machine prepared use nuclear weapons first, against non nuclear countries and non military related civilian targets". He continued, "Historically, where US nuclear policy leads the UK generally follows. And with the UK facing a choice of whether to build a new nuclear weapon system in this parliament it is crucial that both MPs and the public seriously examine these documents." "The UK can't allow itself to be dragged down this path.

We must step back from the brink of a new nuclear arms race - by taking Trident off patrol, stopping all preparations to build a new atomic bomb and restarting the multi-lateral disarmament negations which have already helped to eliminate over half the world's nuclear arsenals." Make sure the Pentagon's plans for nuclear war fly around the internet Nuclear warfighting plans concern all of us - they shouldn't be kept secret. Help ensure that these unclassified documents are exposed to plenty of sunlight by sending this article to a few friends.

Embrace nuclear weapons: The Un-Australian?

The Un-Australian newspaper and its political leader john hoWARd have outlined terrorist justification for [false flag] terror attacks in Bali, London and New York and urged neo-liberals and the other 80 per cent of Australians to embrace the 'fear' of nuclear weapons in an article today headed :Embrace nuclear weapons: Bashir.

But is it necessary to terrorise the general public with propaganda to pass new draconian anti-liberty legislation here in Australia? You bet!

In a chilling article this morning in the Un-Australian from the Canberra political cell where hoWARd remains after his conspiracy theory in relation to the 2002 Bali bombings, the radical neo-liberal dictator's propaganda platform also warned of a clash of civilisations that would not end until Islam accepts to be governed by neocons.

When CIA agents Sidney Jones, or Rohan Gunaratna are the only credible source in relation to a notion that there is an organisation called JI in Indonesia then you have to worry? Especially when its own leader pronounces after he was elected that "We have no evidence that JI exists...".

Yudhoyono was interviewed 4 weeks ago and it was aired in Australia in a Sunday morning program. When asked what he's going to do about JI he had to consult with his advisor in Indonesian. The microphones recorded this:

Of course that's all been painted over now with hundreds of later media giants articles about Bangbang saying exactly the opposite but that does not mean it is true. How could you live your whole life in a country and not be aware who lives there especially an organisation? An organisation who was allegedly bombing people?

That's got to be another joke son!

If an organization called JI were bombing innocent people then why wasn't it banned many years ago, good question? Why wasn't it known to its elected leader? Another good question?

Especially if no one has ever heard of the 'demon' you had to make up in the first place to terrify the Australian community into giving up their basic civil and democratic rights and to ruthlessly and recklessly take us into an illegal and degrading war.

Australian Prime Minister goes "all the way" in Washington
By Mike Head 20 June 2002 SWS.org

Howard arrived in the US capital just after Bush unveiled a fundamental shift in US foreign policy, jettisoning the Cold War doctrines of nuclear "deterrence and containment" and adopting a "first strike" policy of unilaterally attacking so-called terrorist and "rogue" states.

How do you accomplish that without scaring the population?

john hoWARd also said, some pretty incriminating statements back in February 2005, and explains the justification for war on Iraq and terror attacks.

Howard sends more troops to Iraq
February 22, 2005: AGE:

"Mr Howard admitted that the $300 million decision to send an extra 450 troops to Iraq to protect Japanese engineers for as long as a year would be unpopular and could put Australian lives in danger."

So it's okay to put Australian lives in danger and to convince some Australians about the political need to strike first at a sovereign nation.

Bali has nothing to do with iraq it's just Indonesian internal difficulties [primed by the CIA or Mossad] but enough for the Australian authorities to use that fear base to help bolster support and enforce draconian anti-terror laws here. [Call to arms.]

Said to protect us from imagined home grown bombers and Indonesian bombers put up to it by someone when we go on holiday and allegedly about that countries internal affairs!

Like Tony Bliar, john hoWARd's government is also swimming against the tide of popular opinion on the issue. Since being elected in 1996, john hoWARd has managed the media giants to help him stay in power by paying them to tap into his people's deep-rooted racial prejudices, and a general sense of insecurity.

Community set to oppose downer propaganda: Bashir

9-ll, Bali, Spain, Australia's Embassy in Jakarta, London and Egypt all have similarities and follow the same pattern, in that without them it would have been impossible to get the support from the west necessary to pre-emptively and illegally strike a sovereign nation state and whoever is behind these bombings wanted to go into an illegal and degrading war and not preach and teach peasants in Indonesia.

US-inflicted carnage on Iraqi people

The REAL Iraq War (Warning: Explicit images of Violence)

Discussion of the 'anti-war' position is just so abstract, don't you think. I think it would help if instead of engaging in philosophical discussions about war, the taxpayer would actually be a party to war, just as they expect their kids to do. So let's take a good look.

"Indeed US authorities have repeatedly stated that they do not keep records of civilian casualties. However, as with the children overboard, the weapons of mass destruction and the torture of Iraqi prisoners, the truth eventually emerges."

300,000 Iraqis protest occupation and genocide

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Chanting "Death to America" and burning effigies of President Bush and Saddam Hussein, tens of thousands of Iraqis flooded central Baghdad on Saturday in what police called the largest anti-American protest since the fall of Baghdad, the capital, exactly two years ago.

The peaceful demonstration by angry young followers of Shiite Muslim cleric Muqtada al-Sadr underscored the United States' accomplishments? and its failures since the end of the war.

Once staunch supporters of the U.S. invasion [oil resource wars] to oust the dictator who ruthlessly suppressed them, many Shiite Arabs in Iraq have grown so frustrated by the lingering military occupation, with its checkpoints, raids and use of force, that they took to the streets to call for a deadline for troop withdrawal.

[Perhaps frustrated also because of the 'genocide' of the 'population' to oust just one person?]

Carrying banners that read "Go Out" and "Leave Our Country," marchers hit the streets early Saturday morning, blocking roads and causing traffic jams around the city.

Most of the protesters came from the Baghdad slum of Sadr City, but busloads also arrived from Kut, Amara, Baqubah and other cities. Some estimates put the number of protesters at 300,000. By 11 a.m., the massive but orderly demonstration assembled in Firdos Square.

"The American people need to know that they can't suppress us anymore, even with all their strength and power," said Mohammed Salih Khalaf, 54, a day laborer from Sadr City.

Raising fists and shouting in unison, protesters chanted, "No, No to America! No, No to Occupation!" Many waved Iraqi flags and carried pictures of al-Sadr and his revered father, Mohammed al-Sadr, who was assassinated during the Saddam regime.

Munaf Abbas, 25, a chemical engineer from the southern city of Amara, blamed the presence of U.S. troops for rising violence in Iraq.

"America is the mother of terrorism," he said. "All the explosions are happening because they are here."

U.S. Occupiers have said they hope to withdraw militants soon but are reluctant to set a deadline or timetable, which they say depends upon the ability of US/Iraq's security forces to keep the peace.

Members of Iraq's newly elected occupation government plan to raise the issue in the National Assembly.
