 Bought American Senators vote down bill to audit the Fed
sol, Tuesday, May 11 2010, 9:00pm
The most powerful and secretive PRIVATE BANK in the world has succeeded in defeating a bill that would have REVEALED its monetary dealings – what does this PRIVATE consortium have to hide from the people? There is no doubt whatsoever that FULL DISCLOSURE of monetary policy is required of a BANK that pretends to be a Federal Institution! The private lobbyist coup against an audit becomes yet another nail in the coffin of American democracy. The take-over of American government by PRIVATE CORPORATE interests is almost COMPLETE. The USA is now a CONFIRMED CORPORATE (therefore fascist) STATE – it offers a heinous, criminal track record as proof of the FACT! (story and 1 image)

Oz: Burqa bullshit
dasha, Friday, May 7 2010, 11:02am
An ‘Australian’ politician of Italian fascist background (great qualifications) has made international headlines by raising the racist spectre once again; notwithstanding from behind the ‘veil’ of national identity! According to Senator Cory Bernardi, wearing a ‘barfa’ "is un-Australian” – here we go again. Another idiot that thinks he has a copyright definition on what it is to be ‘Stralyan’ – a whop clown pontificating from the political, suck my American arse, capital, Canberra. Well he’d know, wouldn’t he? (story and 2 images)

Corporations are Killing You!

If you ever wondered what Corporate Organisations really think (their ideological raison d'être) then wonder no more. The graph below is yet another example of the REALITY -- as opposed to the LIES, spin and advertising – of the Corporate influence/effect on ALL our lives. (story and 2 comments and 1 image)

Rudd earns the ire of Aussies
bluey, Monday, May 3 2010, 11:32am
In perhaps one of the worst examples of cynical politics this nation has seen, incumbent Australian PM, Kevin ‘show pony’ Rudd, is attempting to distract the attention of the population away from his ruinous policy failures by implementing minor tax and health reforms and attacking the 'soft target,' tobacco industry. However, the list of Rudd’s failures, which range from Japanese whaling, ETS, computers for every student, home insulation debacle, ‘borderless’ security and indebting OUR nation and future generations to nefarious foreign Banksters (stimulus) that print ‘fiat’ (toilet-paper) money in exchange for our REAL assets, are far too prominent to be ignored or brushed away. Rudd’s track record does not exactly fill one with confidence; we now know that Rudd is less concerned with positive results than he is with appearances, distractions and political trickery.

Oil Companies: All profit NO disaster Contingencies
teale, Friday, Apr 30 2010, 9:31pm
Have we got the picture yet, regarding off-shore oil platforms and their obvious lack of contingency plans in the event of disastrous spills? Oz had a catastrophic explosion and fire on an off-shore rig that spilled thousands of tonnes of oil into pristine seas off Western Australia -- the State that is run by Transnational mining and gas/oil Corporations.

 Australia’s complicity in War Crimes
liz, Monday, Apr 26 2010, 8:54pm
It is high time Aussies pulled their insular, xenophobic heads out of their arses and FACED some home truths regarding our conscious complicity in War Crimes. The most infamous and enduring in recent history is of course successive government cover-ups of the cold blooded MURDER of five Australian journalists in Balibo, in 1975. Beginning with Whitlam and (then) Foreign Minister, Gareth ‘zillions in oil’ Evans and extending to OVERT LIAR and WAR CRIMINAL John ‘aluminium tubing’ Howard and the Iraq civilian HOLOCAUST; through to the present servile government and the Sri Lankan military’s brazen summary executions of suspected LTTE fighters and the concentration of almost the entire Tamil population in camps not fit for human habitation. It should not be forgotten that the Sri Lankan ambassador to the UN, Palitha ‘only losers get tried for war crimes’ Kohona, holds dual Australian and Sri Lankan citizenship. We, as a moral nation, have RESPONSIBILITIES! (story and 2 comments and 1 image and 1 audio file)

Obama calls the 1915 Armenian Genocide an 'Atrocity'
stan, Saturday, Apr 24 2010, 9:52pm
It gets more difficult for the world’s leading civilian killing, terrorist nation to phrase criticisms of infamous historical events by the day. As each day passes, more orders are given from US Air Command and CIA facilities to CONSCIOUSLY launch missiles from UAV Drones that kill and maim countless civilians – an act which REMAINS a WAR CRIME under international Law today. [The Hague Courts have lost all credibility and openly display their corrupt bias by NOT undertaking investigations into the world’s LARGEST State run criminal organisations.] (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

Deconstructing Australia’s Puppet Politicians
ryall, Thursday, Apr 22 2010, 10:28am
Before proceeding, I would openly state that Australia today is nothing more than a client state of the U.S. Former PM (and criminal) Paul Keating surrendered the last vestiges of Oz independence to Wall St criminal elites and the corporate sector decades past. (story and 1 comment and 2 images)

A Random Juxtaposition

UK Guardian Censors Truth regarding Iraq Invasion
quill, Sunday, Apr 4 2010, 8:32pm
In a published interview with the UK Guardian, Mohammed ElBaradei, Nobel Peace Prize winner and former head of the IAEA, levelled a strong, unambiguous criticism at those responsible for the illegal invasion of Iraq. ElBaradeie, cited WMD as a fabricated excuse for an illegal invasion and plainly stated that “regime change,” is not condoned under ANY international law! To date, Mohammed ElBaradei, is the highest ranking official to formally state that responsibility for the civilian holocaust in Iraq – OVER ONE MILLION INNOCENT CIVILIANS DEAD – rests with the US and its allies.

‘News’ for Morons
dragan, Wednesday, Mar 31 2010, 7:27am
The BBC reported that Serbia formally apologised today for the Srebrenica ‘massacre;’ less than eight thousand Muslim men were killed by Serbian forces during the US orchestrated Balkan conflict. Indeed, one civilian death is one too many and no apology is able to raise the dead, however, it demonstrates a nation ready to confront its mistakes and perhaps send a signal to Albanian Muslim Kosovars responsible for desecrating hundreds of historical Christian Churches and cleansing Serbs and other minorities in Kosovo. Perhaps the fascist Croatians may feel a pang of conscience for cleansing Serbs from the Krajina region -- the ‘news’ is so one-sided these days.

Australian Internet Censorship Criticised By Yahoo, Google
Kismo, Wednesday, Mar 24 2010, 7:59pm
Notice how BOTH government and opposition stooges shy away from mentioning CENSORSHIP policies dictated to them by the likes of Murdoch, Big Business and Washington.
While Google now defends against China’s DRACONIAN censorship of internet information by re-directing mainland searches to unrestricted Hong Kong, AUSTRALIA'S Kevin ‘yes Rupert’ Rudd and opposition leader, Tony ‘errand boy’ Abbott, support information CENSORSHIP in the most REGRESSIVE policy move YET SEEN in Oz since media censorship was lifted in the 60's!

Obama, after throwing out every vestige of a PUBLIC health care model, COMPLETELY kowtowed to PRIVATE Health Insurance Corporatists by enforcing membership to private Insurance ‘care’ and providing government subsidies to the PRIVATE SECTOR for those who can’t afford coverage!

The Oz Servility Stakes – Labor faces Nationwide Obliteration!
bluey, Friday, Mar 19 2010, 7:59pm
Mike Rann, South Australian Premier, is second only to his Federal counterpart, Kevin ‘custard face’ Rudd, in his obeisance to Corporatists and BIG Business. Rann is facing slaughter at the forthcoming State elections, which some analysts say will be an Oz-wide snowball effect – Rudd and his State Labor counterparts have proven to be the most unrepresentative Labor governments in the nation’s history – it’s ‘all the way’ with BIG Business/Washington and fuck the traditional support base of average working Aussies!

Obama to ORDER Rudd on Policy
Captain, Tuesday, Mar 16 2010, 10:18pm
How dare that puppet, Aussie flea, Kevin ‘CENSORSHIP’ Rudd, refuse our Mad Cow beef exports, who or what does that UNREPRESENTATIVE servile flea think he is, a REAL AUSTRALIAN or something? It’s confirmed, Obama will not risk an open visit to Oz due to increased security concerns; it seems yanks continue to regard Aussies as an unholy bunch of unpredictable and dangerous penal colonialists, rebels, renegades and Freedom Fighters, too dangerous a population for an open visit, can’t understand how they arrived at that conclusion! Nevertheless, Obama, who would rather not stop in Oz period, has been forced to visit Rudd in Canberra and instruct him on a number of policy decisions Washington wishes its puppet government to adopt!

Abbott unintentionally flushes BOUGHT Oz politicians
stylus, Tuesday, Mar 16 2010, 7:58am
Former and current Australian politicians who have clearly been bought by BIG Business have lined up in criticism of Tony Abbott’s new tax on Big Business to support his radical parental leave initiative. We have covered reprehensible criminal and Wall St servant Paul Keating’s criticism in a previous article. However, former conservative treasurer, Peter ‘supercilious prick’ Costello, remembered as the man who lacked the guts to fight for his party’s leadership, joined the fray later this afternoon in SUPPORT-- wouldn’t ya know it – of Kevin Rudd and BIG Business – LOL!

Former Indonesian arse-licker, money launderer -- the casino we had to have on Christmas Island -- Balibo denier, bank deregulator, reprehensible traitor and corrupt criminal, Paul ‘fingers’ Keating, sprang to the ‘aid’ of failing PM and reprehensible LACKEY, Kevin ‘custard face’ Rudd today, by taking a characteristically unconsidered, loud-mouthed swipe at opposition leader Tony ‘domini’ Abbott, calling him a policy devoid “little John Howard,” a [Rhodes Scholar] “intellectual nobody” and parliamentary “resident nutter!”
