  Lost Opportunities posted by toby, 2015-05-04 11:01:37
The biggest tragedy of the modern age is America. After the collapse of the USSR America was left as the only viable nation able to influence the world, but what did it do, wage peace and co-existence instead of war, no, it chose perpetual war, the surest path to ruin, destruction and losing influence, which is happening to America at speed as I write.

 Bali 9: AFP Response Bureaucratic and Evasive; no assurances given – UNACCEPTABLE! posted by darcy, 2015-05-03 21:01:15
Given that reporters were constrained in their questions and reactions to bureaucratic evasion from AFP officials it nevertheless became clear that the AFP is never to be trusted in any regard whatsoever, as it became tragically evident during questioning by the hamstrung mainstream press that the AFP is a fundamentally political organisation rather than a pure policing (States) organisation that deals effectively with crime and obvious priorities, which DUTY I would remind conservative serving bureaucrats in blue uniform, is to protect ALL Australian lives at all times regardless of political considerations, now that obligation is not ‘fanciful’ it is FUNDAMENTAL. The bottom line is simply that ALL police are duty bound to protect ALL citizens and in the case of the Bali 9 duo, murdered for expedient and political reasons, the AFP clearly FAILED in their responsibility – here’s why: (full story)

 Putin 'Threatens' to Expose 9/11 as inside job - well, do it you mouse! posted by Gordon Duff via stacie, 2015-05-03 00:47:33
How much pressure would it require to force a mouse of a leader to fight back? It seems nothing short of a pre-emptive nuclear strike on Russia, which is now becoming a reality.
Putin, a previously elite 'owned' puppet leader, seems to be making hollow threats; if indeed he has evidence of a 9/11 false flag why wouldn't he kick the stool from under the feet of the mass murdering US, which has conveniently placed a noose around its own neck, too easy? Putin made this threat back in February and we are all still waiting for this known coward to back his hollow threats with action. If real evidence existed and was released it would finish the US as the people would finally be forced to reclaim their Republic. (full story)

 al-Qaeda, ally -- the US is now Choking on its created terrorist Bogeymen posted by Daniel Lazare via greg, 2015-05-02 23:48:10
The US leadership has done a 180 degree backflip and adopted reviled terrorist group al-Qaeda as an ally in Syria, what next, the admission that it also created and continues to support, via its Gulf State vassals and Israel, ISIL? Probably not at this time as ISIL has not passed its use-by date as the newly created bogeyman. The point is the extraordinary LACK of integrity and credibility which the US now openly displays to the WORLD, which will no doubt cost it dearly in the immediate and long term future. No-one is able to trust and support a nation that contradicts its own values and direction so dramatically. America's international reputation has never risen above gutter level, now it's in the sewer (full story)

 Kill ‘em all doesn’t work it only breeds civil revolt and eventual freedom from oppression posted by zed, 2015-05-02 10:31:20
Gandhi broke the back of empire with passive resistance but resist Indians did in no uncertain and very brave terms, unarmed and sworn to peaceful protest they were slaughtered in the thousands until they cast off the chains of imperial oppression and exploitation. America has been indiscriminately killing civilians since Vietnam and so it will reap the same result – how could any sane ruling elite hope to persist in the grossly unfair and murderous world they created in order to loot, pillage and steal everything of any value – insanity pure and simple?

 Abbott Already Betraying Oz Integrity and Bending over Forwards to Barbaric Indonesia posted by jake, 2015-05-02 02:32:50
Abbott has proven at the G20 that he is incapable of a statesman’s stance in international relations, only days after the abhorrent treatment that was contemptuously designed to insult and belittle Australian politicians, notwithstanding the supremely cruel and tortuous effect it had on the executed young men prior to their political executions and their families throughout the entire unnecessarily horrific ordeal, Abbott a now known supreme COWARD and INCOMPETENT, is bending over forwards and offering his arse to the ignorant and primitive Indonesians who, let’s face it, detest Australians.

 Utter Contempt – Widodo shits in Abbott’s Face AGAIN! posted by darcy, 2015-05-01 10:51:25
Tony Abbott, Australia’s ‘fearless’ leader should now be accustomed to wearing an Indonesian turd on his face, this is the second time ignorant, schoolboy populist politician Widodo has dumped on Abbott’s face. The cruel, barbaric and completely inhumane treatment that Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran and their distraught families received throughout their ordeal extended right up to the point of the firing squad, where only the two Australian nationals facing execution were initially denied the right to receive comfort from their chosen religious representatives. The primitive message was loud and clear, fuck you Australia and your spineless, lackey political leaders. (full story)

The Super Rich and Us posted by val, 2015-04-30 09:33:19
This BBC documentary series focuses on the huge disparity in wealth that exists today and how the 1% have made it happen -- essentially by lying to the public via their corporate mass media and controlling today's gutless and incompetent puppet politicians, which result is not to be unexpected from avaricious manipulating people. The problem of course rests with the masses that continue to passively accept the rapid decline in their quality of life and the media propaganda bullshit of professional liars and cheats.

 AFP ‘Throws Off’ onto Government over Executions – a not so subtle Message posted by jess, 2015-04-29 23:35:28
The AFP is under considerable pressure, and rightly so, for surrendering Aussie citizens to a clearly barbaric nation that applies the death penalty for drug offences. The AFP’s reputation is in tatters and will remain so for a considerable time to come or until there is a complete purging of the incompetent imbeciles that are responsible for the Bali Nine debacle, this would apply to serving and former members, particularly former chief and Howard lackey, Mick Keelty, who has a lot to answer for.

 Abbott's Untouchables -- the 55 Oz millionaires that paid NO Tax posted by Peter Martin via gail, 2015-04-29 03:38:23
Fifty-five of Australia's highest earners paid no income tax at all during 2012-13, not even the Medicare levy. All earning at least $1 million, they managed to write their taxable incomes down to below the $18,200 tax-free threshold. (full story)

 Mick Keelty and John Howard Responsible for Executions posted by darcy, 2015-04-28 11:40:21
Former AFP chief Mick ‘drunken dropkick’ Keelty, and former PM, suck-arse,‘yez boss America,’ John Howard, are directly responsible, whether they accept it or not, for the imminent execution deaths – now only an hour away -- of two young and reformed Australian drug couriers that were knowingly surrendered to a nation that applies the death penalty for drug trafficking. That act in itself contravenes Australian policy never to surrender any citizen or person, inclusive of refugees, to nations that would apply barbaric, medieval punitive measures in the modern civilised world.

To Wage Perpetual War posted by cyd, 2015-04-27 05:56:43
Whether by design, sheer stupidity or unbridled avarice (all three most likely) perpetual war is fact today and it is waged for the benefit of the elite few and their corporations/banks whose coffers overflow on the blood of millions of innocents with every pre-planned and engineered conflict.

 Listen, Australia! posted by baz, 2015-04-26 12:04:38
I’m a bloody Aussie and not so proud to announce it; my nation is allied to a nation that legalised torture, government murders, indefinite detention without charge or trial and compiles ‘kill lists’ in secret in order to murder its own citizens, especially those that oppose its criminal actions – these acts alone earn America the status of pariah nation, but it gets far worse for Australia, whose knee-walking servile government complies with every request that star-spangled murdering America makes to Oz (usually to participate in its crimes).
