Blogsdear hillary .....‘You stood with your back to the concrete wall and had the audacity to say to the Palestinians people, "This wall is not against the Palestinians. This is against the terrorists. The Palestinian people have to help to prevent terrorism. They have to change the attitudes about terrorism."
Your words proved yet again that neither you nor anyone else in our government has any grasp of reality of what is actually happening in the ground in Palestine.

A Day In The (Adelaide) Life Of Don RumsfeldInteresting day at the Rumsfeld rally (nothing huge, around 600 I'd guess) particularly to watch the level of covert security. Came into town by train at 4 o'clock... a couple of police on the platform, fifty people with backpacks heading in different directions. Up to the main street. Immediately to the right is the Halliburton-constructed barrier blockading the Hyatt from the world, a few constabulary behind it- nothing major. Strolling up past the Casino, you see a few more parked at the outdoor cafe, a couple across the street, three or four at the front of Parliament House.
Running Against The Grain- What Downer And The Wheat Board Should Have KnownAs Prime Minister Howard does an "about face" calls for an inquiry into Australian bribes in Iraq, it appears that knowledge of suspicious financial transfers by the According to a LA Times article in June this year, U.S. Embassy offoicials were aware
Pieces Of The Puzzle... Rumsfeld and RupertI wonder how much "unravelling" is going to occur at the Australian end of the Bush fiasco? A few more problems like the Australian Wheat Board's Bribes to Saddam, David Hicks' mistreatment "on Rumsfeld's Watch", and the "loopholing" of US foreign aid funds through Australian (specifically the Adelaide offices of Halliburton/KBR) bookwork, could show a level of inter-cabinet complicity that runs much deeper than the Ausmin meeting in Adelaide. I wonder if Rupert Murdoch, "back home" this week to open his new SA Headquarters, will hang around Adelaide for another day to shake hands with Rummy?

Donald Can't DuckSo, the military leader of the world's only "superpower" will be in my home town next week. I am eagerly looking looking forward to participating in democracy at this time. If my city is being turned into an support-centre for his objectives, I would like Mr Rumsfeld to be aware of my objections to what is occurring at the behest of his department and his country's current leadership. Mr Rumsfeld, I don't believe that you should be illegally occupying another country, and I don't think we should be helping you. I also don't believe that we should be building Star Wars warships for you under the pretext of expanding our own Navy..

Bugger Of An IdeaConsider the prospect that the Australian labour force is being de-waged and "dumebed down" to create a cheap wage-force for the U.S. when Chinese work becomes too financially or pragmatically expensive. That's all for now.. any takers ?
