Illegal: US Supreme Court’s ruling on Torture Bay
by gade Thursday, Jun 29 2006, 8:23am
international / injustice/law / commentary

The US Supreme Court ruled today that Guantanamo Bay detention/torture centre was illegal (by implication) and the kangaroo military commission established to try the detainees is in breach of the Geneva Convention, well duh! Expert international lawyers stated the plain facts – illegality – of the matter from the start. Who could accuse the ‘slow to see daylight’ US court system of bias? Surely the principal pillars of American ‘justice’ could not be influenced by Bush or his neo-cons?

BANKSY -- Justice [sword and scales vandalised]
BANKSY -- Justice [sword and scales vandalised]

The Supreme Court ruling was actually forced by an action taken by the former driver and bodyguard of (Bush colleague and friend) Osama Bin Laden. [As stated in a previous paper, Bin Laden has done more to assist George W Bush than any man on the planet, including Karl Rove. ‘A friend in need is a friend indeed’.]

‘Truth is stranger than fiction’, is a favourite expression of analysts and labourers alike. The truth sounds more preposterous at times than the BIG lies the world swallowed regarding the existence of WMD, bio-weapons and mobile labs. Remember the Colin Powell performance at the UN (eat your heart out, Mick Jagger). Who can forget Powell wielding a test tube of white powder and referring to ‘satellite photos’ of green painted trucks, very ‘sexy’ stuff – but no substance whatsoever! Of course the reality was baby powder not anthrax and a painted ‘ice-cream truck’ not a mobile lab but let’s not let the truth get in the way of an illegal invasion! Is the public able to bear the grim and plain truth or must they continue to be fed tinsel lies that twinkle and shine?

Bush’s immediate response was to buy time to confer with his handlers, ‘what do I do and say now, Karl/Richard/Paul?’ However, Bush did state that he would never jeopardise the safety of the US public! What? Bush has done more to engender hatred for ALL Americans than anyone in history – including the Islamists. But is the public ready for the plain truth – not on YOUR life, just give ‘em more colourful lies. Lies are far more palatable!

The TRUTH today is as it has always been; the Truth has an enduring quality, it cannot be polluted or corrupted, it can only be disregarded!

Jail the coalition of willing criminals and the networks that support them. That action would be the beginning of a journey to Peace and sanity in the world. But have you ever tried to offer a habitual shit eater wholesome food? Nah! Give me more lies please, you know I am incapable of any rational action.

We are the public and we love a ‘rear’ action.

All of my colleagues told me I was wasting my time. Well, am I? You tell me.

Peace.

Rule 303
by the patch Friday, Jun 30 2006, 4:51am

In the words of Breaker Morant..... "We caught them and we shot them under Rule 303."....... war time criminal injustice has always been with us, it is not the sole dominion of the US, Australia, or any other military force. The victors write history and the US is no different to any other military organization. The problem is not the US or Capitalism but rather man's inability to love his neighbour. The only answer to this evil is found in Jesus the Christ and the transforming nature of His love.

Howard took the opportunity to confirm that HE takes orders.

David Hicks will rot in a foreign jail if Howard or his Libs remain in government. Regardless of guilt or innocence Hicks is an Australian son and WE will deal with him -- hang him or free him, the prerogative is OURS.

Every other nation has petitioned the US and obtained the repatriation of their citizens but not the spineless coward Howard.

What a pathetic excuse for a leader.

what was that, patch?

Jesus who? We've all heard Bush confessing Jesus Christ too. You know, the born again EVANGELICAL, George W Bush -- AND the 30 million Evangelicals who supported him in the last election when his heart, mind and character were known to the whole world.

A LIAR, MURDERER, WAR MONGER, KILLER OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN, ILLEGAL INVADER, PLUNDERER and destroyer of American values!

Is that the transfoming power of your God, patch? Bush followed the formula, what happened to him? So much for the "power" of your God!

Either your God like all other Gods is a joke -- or Bush is a LIAR, HYPOCRITE AND CRIMINAL -- which is it, patch?

Maybe a few of the 'transformed' 30 million Evangelical hypocrites would like to assist you in a response.

Religion is just too easy isn't it, patch? A great place to hide when you refuse to take the responsibility of YOUR personal actions -- give us all a break!
