Whilst the little rodent scurries from shadow to shadow, busily marking our society with the rank stench of his corrupt & immoral government, his head clowner was busily informing the sceptical populace that an “anonymous” source had assured him that David Hick’s mental health was fine.

It turns out, of course, that the source of clowner’s spectacular assertion was an anonymous junior official from the bushit embassy in Kaaanbra …. an official who recently observed Hicks for 20 minutes, without speaking with him …. an official who has no medical qualifications & whose opinion is worthless, other than as further direct evidence of the profound moral corruption that is the hallmark of both governments.

But, as John Pilger unpacks his latest reflections on the state of the “Lucky Country”, we know that the majority of many Awstralyans, including a growing number of influential opinion-makers, have woken to this sickness & are prepared to act in accordance with genuine Australian values, publicly rejecting the behaviour of the political creatures who shame us all on a daily basis.

At the end of his piece, Pilger recounts an incident involving Howard & Ian Chappell, former captain of the Australian cricket team, illustrative of the changing climate in our community.

So, whilst the little besiderer, his clowner & the pathetic, shameful caricature who is emblematic of the true state of justice in both awstralya & the once proud land of the free - fake Amnesty member, Darth Ruddock - all loudly proclaim the merits of the latest twisted rules created to guarantee the outcome of the planned Guantanamo show trials, few are fooled.

It seems that the tide has well & truly turned.

As I wrote in a letter to the Sydney morning herald recently, it is ironic that David Hicks, locked in solitary confinement & denied his legal & human rights for more than 5 years, has become powerful enough to finally bring the bastards down.
