existential threats - letter to AusBC unleashed & Fed. Rep.

1. Excess-CO2 caused climate-change catastrophe - could cause irrevocable harm to our once jewel-like planet's human-life supporting ecosphere.

2. Many of the world's economies (including the US) have been ruined by neoliberalism - look at the massive US unemployment, and *no* effective action-programs even being considered to remedy this, plus the EU PIIGS + UK all going broke and being forced into austerity (not to mention the damage being done to Aus, i.e. privatisations of utilities, reducing benefits & services etc.), all *increasing* the downward-spirals.

3. The massive military push by the US to dominated & subjugate the planet (i.e. aggressive invasions of Afghanistan, Iraq & possibly Iran next), and the vicious aggressive invasion, genocide & ethnic cleansing by alien (i.e. not from there) Zionist/Jews in Palestine.

4. The disgustingly craven, corrupt & venal MSM perversely aiding & abetting all the above travesties.

-=*=-

Obviously, effective, corrective action is required soonest - else the expected disaster will be worse when it arrives, and sometime become unavoidable - if not already so; brrr.

5. All those who agitate for *no* change from the status quo *and* all those who impede attempts at change (including those doing nothing), make themselves accessories to the perpetrator-villains of items 2 & 3, easily identified as the US & Z regimes (and entities such as the Aus Lib/Lab bipartisan = un- and anti-democratic quisling-traitors[*]), plus neoliberal *voodoo* economics.

[*] Howard = Afghanistan, Iraq, Rudd continuation of same, Gillard ditto + attacking Assange, *all* pro-Z, *all* pro-neo-liberalism etc., *none* of which is in the public interest, rather against it.

The commenter Orly is the same entity as Anon - from style, content & timing. The name-change was forced by a debating defeat; Anon was repeatedly routed. It is intellectual dishonesty to repeat parts of the defeated material under a new name, just as it is intellectual dishonesty (and worse) for any AusBC moderators to censor attempts at countering such trolls.

A properly functioning democracy requires an informed electorate, *not* helped by pro-war, pro-Z, pro-US and/or pro-neoliberal propaganda. Why do some unleashed moderators compromise their 4th-estate, free-speech responsibilities and put themselves into paragraph(5)?

Last time I checked, a lack of conviction DOES mean innocence. Or are we talking about different legal systems here? Or are you implying that justice only occurs when *you* agree with the judge's decision? Independence and sovereignty are established issues of international law. And it is through these things which Israel claims the land it holds. If you think that these rules don't apply, you need to come up with a better legal argument then "I don't like it".

My (so far not published) input:

«duck, weave & dissemble

This's no Darlinghurst courtroom; the audience in 'our' AusBC's forums is mainly the mums'n dads of Awe-Straya and any nippers allowed up late. (Lawyers are about as scanty as men in frocks on the outer Barcoo...)

So I will stick to the vernacular.

It's not what one abhors but what's *right & fair* that counts.

Exactly which part of "no conviction does *not* mean innocent" is not to understand?

Viewers of Perry Mason will recall that suspects are *assumed* innocent - until their conviction.

'No conviction' obtains *only* because the perpetrators have not yet fronted the charges against them, here improper and aggressive alienation of almost an entire country.

Now, 'explain' is different from 'justify.'

Explanation 1: Civil war, 'unilateral' independence.

Explanation 2: Balfour (motive), Jabotinsky (method) Ben-Gurion's arms (means).

'Matter of opinion' perhaps; differentiate by which 'explanation' describes the open-wound crime-scene.

Additionally, they perpetrated plan Dalet, the Deir Yassin massacre, all the death and destruction that accompanied and followed. Oh! One other, tiny *fact*: almost all Zionists in Palestine in '47/8 were immigrants, some more 'legal' than others.

Perhaps someone could thoroughly *justify* the violent dispossession of the hapless Palestinians; the charges stand until disproven.»

Comment: AFAIK, it's all true, or *fair* comments rooted in truths. I said as much to the moderators, via an 'alert:'

Note: I had another 'ready' when shock, horror - no 'Reply' button.

So here, my 2nd (so far not published) input:

««The IDF also killed 80 other civilians that day - by close-range shooting, artillery fire, aerial fire and naval fire. Among them were six women and 29 children under the age of 16. Just go to B'Tselem's website and read the list: a 7-year-old boy, a 1-year-old girl, another 1-year-old girl, a 3-year-old boy, a 13-year-old girl.

B'Tselem is careful to differentiate between Palestinians who "took part in the hostilities" and Palestinians who "did not take part in the hostilities." Its list of fatalities states: "Farah Amar Fuad al-Hilu, 1-year-old resident of Gaza City, killed on 04.01.2009 in Gaza City, by live ammunition. Did not participate in hostilities. Additional information: Killed while she fled from her house with her family after her grandfather (Fuad al-Hilu, 62 ) was shot by soldiers who entered the house." The grandfather also did not participate in hostilities.

Or perhaps ... because Riyeh Abu Hajaj, 64, and Majda Abu Hajaj, 37, a mother and daughter, were the only ones killed while carrying a white flag that January 4? No. Matar, 17, and Mohammed, 16, were also killed. They were shot from an IDF position in a nearby house as they pushed a cart carrying the wounded and dead of the Abu Halima family, who were hit by a white phosphorous bomb that penetrated their home in northern Beit Lahiya. Five members of the family were killed on the spot, including a 1-year-old girl. Another young woman would die of her injuries a few weeks later.»

'Target' comment by Anon @ 02Jun'10,8:55pm

Where is the logic in Israel's existence? Easy. Israel unilaterally declared independence.

Then when Israel's neighbours refused to accept its existence, Israel upheld its independence with military force.

Independence does not need an old book, or an invisible friend, in order to occur. So your comment (while insulting to the Jewish faith) was hilariously incorrect.

Independence simply requires strength and intent. Which Israel had. And so it happened.

So much for YOUR logic, such as it was.

«It is totally irrelevant what anyone may say, it's only what Israel does that counts. The intent and effect, if not the modus operandi developed for plan Dalet, demonstrated at Deir Yassin have been continuously applied (and modernised; see missile-firing helicopters etc), from then until now. No declaration nor dressing up (military uniforms) changed the nature or effect of the policy, all one has to do is observe, pictorial proof [.jpg]: tinyurl.com/37wcw2x

Without significant change (for the better), this progression contains the legacy, the present and points to the future - of ever increasing dispossession by one side, ever increasing despair in the other.»

Comment:

Of course, having been censored, one gets a bit wary of 'speaking freely,' but there is nothing non-factual in my input, let alone any infraction of the AusBC's published guidelines - they practice brazen and cowardly comment suppression = un- and anti-democratic censorship.

Australian Broadcasting Corporation, biased? Yes; not to the left - but to buggery!

This so far small, specially constructed blog documents some of the comments that I've submitted to AusBC forums, mainly 'unleashed' - comments that sadly have *not* appeared, i.e. 'publication denied.'

The main topic for censorship is neither bad language nor abuse of other commenters - the 'normal' grounds for moderating an internet discussion. This is totally clear, because I just don't 'do' bad language or ad-homs. On occasion, I may choose to attack, aka criticize *comments* (i.e. the content) of rogue-regime apologists.

Whatever; my main gripe is the criminality and lies of the rogue regimes of the US & IL, and my posts do not shy from criticising these entities, their crimes & lies - as one can see from the material included in this blog.

I try at all times to be factual and am always prepared to 'substantiate' any statement; I describe the 'Israel project' as being driven by invading alien Zionists (shortened to 'Zs,') and their prey as 'erstwhile legal owner/occupants' aka ELO/Os, mainly hapless Palestinians. IMHO this description is not just totally justified but wholly truthful, and should not, in any properly functioning democracy, attract 'publication denied' by the AusBC.

To be censored for expressing such sentiments is un- and anti-democratic, as well as tyrannical - all the while, this rogue AusBC is paid using some of the taxes extracted from my hard-earned income.

Q: Where is my freedom of speech?

A: Denied by the AusBC.

"If you believe Israel is in breach of the law, then how do you reconcile the fact that:

1. Israel always has at least an arguable legal case for the issues you mention,

2. The International Court has made no binding resolutions on such issues, and

3. No successful legal case has been brought against Israel on such issues, in the sixty years since its creation?

Two possibilities there. The first is that Israel somehow controls the entire UN and the entire international justice system.

The second possibility is that your opinion on those issues might be wrong."

«The absence of a criminal record does not imply the innocence of the accused - this is a fallacy of the non sequitur type.

Proof: *ALL* perpetrators start out with no record.

Further, a 62+ year record of 'no conviction entered' may well be due to serious corruption of the justice system.

Proof: *These* perpetrators live in half of a duplex, 'gifted' to them by the so-called applicable 'justice system.'

(One could argue that that 'system' had no right to do such gifting; I do so argue, as slightly more strenuously, do the ELO/Os - erstwhile legal owner/occupiers - mostly hapless Palestinians.)

Further, the very same perpetrators illegally occupy most of the other half of the duplex.

Proof: Most if not all 3rd party countries, including the perpetrators very own 'protectors' acknowledge the illegality of the occupation.

Further, the perpetrators claim to 'own' their protectors' Congress. A parliament amenable to being 'owned' is also corrupt.

Me: Hmmm, interesting. May we learn what qualifies *you* to make such judgments?

As to "plain English," I'd use Sanskrit if I thought it'd suit my purpose - but which bits did you not understand?

My arguments are logical statements of the form if X then Y, where X is a cause of Y; the veracity of such statements cannot simply be collectively dismissed as "fallacious" - especially in the light of Haha's earlier statement implying *acceptance* of my logic. More work required?

Comment 1: Having said "ridiculous to compare," VoRR goes on to do exactly that, and *tries* to equate Islam-O-fascism (anyway an invalid construction/concept) to the WW2 fascist 'axis.'

Comment 2: Shrieking "Appeasement!" is always good - for the r-whingers, but I recall that 'the West' encouraged the Nazis in the early days, as a 'containable' counter to communism. Shrieking "Communism!" or "Socialism!" is another 'always' for erring ideologist r-whingers with totally irrational allergies against anything even slightly to 'the left' of Ayn Rand - say.

Comment 3: Since WW2 ended with a double BANG! - the dual war crime A-bombings killing about a ¼mio predominantly civilian Japanese, an act not so much to end WW2 (the Japs were pleading for surrender) as to initiate WW3, aka the so-called 'cold war' against Russia&Co, just about every war the US has initiated involved 100% aggressive invasion following a desire to push US hegemony, and usually with some pecuniary interest - like oil in Iraq, say.

Comment 4: Not 'just' the US, but its illegal Z-sprog continued/extended its alien invasion and immoral, illegal occupation of land not theirs, aka that (still!) belonging to the mostly Palestinian ELO/Os (erstwhile legal owner/occupiers), an obscene crime now 62+ bloody years old and no end in sight.

Re: Anon @ 18Apr'10,12:06pm, who wrote:

"Iran funds Hamas, Hezbollah and other groups. Ergo, it does support terror groups."

It is incorrect to term Hamas, Hezbollah etc. terror groups.

Consider, in neutral language, the definition of theft:

"... the crime of taking the property ... without consent. ... Robbery is an aggravated form ... involving violence or the threat of violence directed against the victim ..."
[answers.com/topic/theft]

Consider, again in neutral language, a particular situation:

Entity-A begins taking the property of Entity-B without their consent, including using violence, resulting in many deaths amongst Entity-Bs (the erstwhile legal owner/occupiers; ELO/Os). Usually, causing death during the commission of a crime is termed murder. This process continues 62+ years long, down to the present.

Almost all of the Entity-As lived elsewhere until shortly before the above-described theft-process began.

Groups attempting to resist such alien invader Entity-As and their associated violent, murdering theft of Entity-Bs' property, groups also attempting to reclaim *their own land* are the actual, true defenders. As proof, I offer the real world, free of the deceit of self-serving propagandists.

Anon :   19 Apr 2010 12:42:51pm

Consider, in neutral language, the following:

That 'theft' in its natural form, requires the unlawful taking of property. And that 'unlawful' requires the existence of a relevant domestic law to be broken.

That regardless of where the people of Entity-A lived prior to the fact, they lived as part of Entity-B at the time of independence.

That when the Entity-A's declared independence from Entity-B, the result was civil war. That Entity-A, through legal act and later military strength, became independent.

That 'independence' and 'sovereignty' were gained by entity-A. And that those terms have legal implications for the land that was taken.

That Entity-B ceased to exist as a nation when it was divided between Israel, Jordan and Egypt. That it no longer existed because it had no government, land or sovereignty.

That as a result of further war, Jordan and Egypt both lost the territory that they held. And later gave up their claims to both regions when making peace with Entity-A.

That Entity-A as the only legitimate government over all regions once held by Entity-B, is the only successor state recognised by the UN.

That Entity-B, as it does not legally exist, cannot legally be at war. And so cannot legally be a defender.

And that even if any of the above was incorrect, it does not stop the fact that Hamas and Hezbollah use terrorist tactics. Which makes them terror groups by default.

apparently censored:

Re: Anon @ 19Apr'10,12:42pm, alien invaders.

No, no, a 1000 times no.

Anon: "a relevant domestic law" - no.

Presumably, the hapless, dispossessed ELO/Os are not interested in pettifogging (1 practise legal trickery. 2 quibble or wrangle about trivial points. [POD]). The expression ELO/Os - erstwhile legal owner/occupiers, perfectly describes the pre-existing situation, *before* the Entity-As began mass-infiltrating/invading. The definition of theft perfectly describes the resulting situation, whereby great swathes of ELO/O land are now occupied against the wishes of those ELO/Os, and the dispossession having been carried out by armed force including killing, what may perfectly be described as murdering-theft for soil.

Any unbiased observer can see it; as proof consider that even the greatest supporter refers to 'illegal settlements.'

That should be enough, but more:

Anon: "they lived as part of Entity-B ... when the Entity-A's declared independence from Entity-B, the result was civil war" - no.

What is under discussion was the British Mandate of Palestine, administered by an alien power, which (funnily enough) had tried to limit if not stop Entity-As immigrating. It was when UNGA181 (*non-binding*, "was approved by a vote of 33 to 13, with 10 abstentions on November 29, 1947. ... the passage of the partition plan immediately instigated a civil war in Palestine.")

One can posit that any 'civil war' was either by the ELO/Os trying to resist the Entity-A's invasion - legitimate defence, AND/OR the Entity-A's attacking both the authorities and ELO/Os - illegitimate terrorism; as proof see Plan Dalet, Deir Yassin massacre etc..

Re: Anon @ 19Apr'10,12:42pm, seeking legitimacy.

Anon: "That Entity-A, through legal act and later military strength, became independent." - no.

Anon, kindly provide substantiation of your assertion: "legal act."

Again, Anon's 'narrative' does not accord with observable facts: "and later military strength."

In part-one, I documented the 'crime-scene,' (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_mandate_of_Palestine) and showed that the vicious lawlessness against the authorities by the Entity-As had begun after the *non-binding* UNGA181 and before 14May'48.

Proof: Einstein wrote a letter dated 10Apr'48:

"When a real and final catastrophe should befall us in Palestine the first responsible for it would be the British and the second responsible for it the Terrorist organizations build up from our own ranks.

I am not willing to see anybody associated with those misled and criminal people."
[lettersofnote.com/2010/03/when-real-and-final-catastrophe-should.html]

Notice the words above the photocopy: "two militant Zionist groups - Lehi and Irgun - as part of an effort to cleanse the area of its Arab population."

Anon's 'military strength' were terrorist gangs.

Those gangs 'became independent' by unilateral declaration - it's not just like robbers, having broken into a property, declare the property to be theirs, it is *exactly* that...

(At least one of Anon or Zing has acknowledged that land may not be legally seized by military action.)

.. and the land illegally seized by Entity-A's terrorism - to this day - prevents the formation of the promised Palestinian state.

Re: Anon @ 19Apr'10,12:42pm, more pettifogging.

Anon admits that: "land ... was taken." - OK.

At least that's part of what we can observe in the real world.

Then Anon's 'narrative' discusses various wars, Jordan and Egypt etc. down to: "Entity-A as the only legitimate government over all regions." - no.

The lie is given to this risible nonsense by the so-called 'world community,' *including* the US, all deploying the term 'illegal settlements' in 'occupied territories.'

There are UN rules as to what one may or may not do in occupied territories; both by driving Entity-Bs out and letting Entity-As in, the Entity-As are in breach of these rules. Risking some repetition for effect, being "in breach of these rules" = law-breakers = outlaws, aka criminals. (Some of us *know* this already.)

Anon: "That Entity-B, as it does not legally exist, cannot legally be at war. And so cannot legally be a defender."

Here, I repeat kenj's words: "Oh, please! There has to be at least a pretence of rationality in this discussion column."

IF someone's land is stolen AND they try to reverse that theft THEN they are defenders. Just how obvious?

As in the invader-aggressor, referring to 'regrettable collateral deaths' - of complete innocents - saying: "Oh, well, that's war."

And yet when the invaded (validly!) object, they're to be called terrorists?

Again, I repeat kenj's words: "Oh, please! There has to be at least a pretence of rationality in this discussion column."

And a not-so BTW: War has been described as 'politics by other means' - or whatever; I don't care for sophistry. The Entity-As failed in their bid to buy their way in, they failed in their bid to sneak in - cf. legitimate resistance by ELO/Os - from day-one - and so, Entity-As went to war (always alleging attack but in fact provoking all conflict) - the alien invader Entity-As are the aggressors - trying to seize land-not-theirs, the situation that still exists.

Violence, for the slow thinkers, is what some people do when they lose the intellectual contest.

Fazit: Make of it what you will. The AusBC does, and it's called censorship - but worse, it's in favour of criminals, against democracy - they take our taxes then they lie to us.

raison d'être

It was always going to happen; attempting to 'debate' on an 'uneven playing field' was worse than Sisyphean; simply doomed from the start.

But it *proves* my point, it shows the AusBC up for exactly what they are, namely corrupt & anti-democratic.

Anon: "a relevant domestic law" - no, perhaps one could consider (aka search for) "positing no domestic law is a total furphy."»
