Here we have an extreme viewpoint regarding the Australia’s increased involvement with the USA. One with which I agree in principle.
The arrangement to accept US bases in Australia, to me, is abhorrent. Besides the military ramifications – abetting the US aggression and war crimes and positioning ourselves as assistant warmongers, there is the political aspect of Julia Gillard, making decisions without the support of the people and, in fact the government. Where and when has this been debated and agreed to? Why is this acceptable to the Australian public?
This CEC (Citizens Electoral Council of Australia) media release provides sufficient material to adequately represent this author’s feelings, reactions and criticisms of what should be recognised as unacceptable Australian Government behaviour.
The CEC is outspoken and often rude, even crude. It, however, usually hits the nail on the head with the truth. I will accept without argument, due criticism for any disrespectful opinions or comments but will be happy to answer to the subject matter of the warmongering and our (Australian) involvement.
Another condition is requested – in reading the article, treat the claim made by CEC of the British influence and control over the US as not relevant to this post. There are undoubtedly links, and also direct UK-Australian links. However, all the warmongering issues cannot be discussed without including considerable Israeli/Zionist influence. There are numerous proofs of this, but this post is not about the behind-the-scenes details. [This comment from ‘PressTV’ post http://www.presstv.ir/detail/210071.html, ‘REALIST Nov 15, 2011 10:43 AM “The unelected Zionists puppet stooge Cameron is the second worst ever British prime minister after the Zionists/USA puppet stooge war criminal Tony Blair who should be arrested and put on trial for crimes against humanity for the committed genocide in Iraq and Afghnaistan (sic)!! “‘ shows the likely relationships.]
Furthermore, the claim that Obama be removed as President, although deservedly the case, is naive because surely another puppet will take his place.
Julia Gillard is helping Barack Obama paint a target on Australia by establishing a U.S. military base in Darwin in the middle of Obama’s mad drive to attack Iran and Syria and trigger a nuclear world war.
Obama is a British stooge, a carry-on from George Bush but worse, whom the British are using for their imperial strategy of “Balkanising” the Middle East to start WWIII, the way they manipulated the Balkans to spark WWI.
Obama is using drones to murder U.S. citizens; he joined the Brits and French in murdering Libyan head of state Qaddafi; he trumped even Bush’s gross triumphalism on the weekend by playing basketball on the U.S. aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson that hurriedly buried Osama bin Laden at sea; and he is talking up the bogus threat of Iranian weapons of mass destruction from “evidence” the U.S., Brits and French planted in last week’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report, to give a nod and wink to the plan of crazy Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to hit Iran and Syria with pre-emptive strikes.
Such strikes will force an Iranian counter-strike, followed by a U.S. response on Israel’s behalf, and then a showdown with Russia and China.
In the middle of this, Gillard has ratcheted up Australia’s military cooperation with Obama. She is providing a military base in Darwin, as one aspect of a huge expansion of the U.S. presence in Australia, and will sign the Australia-United States Defence Trade Cooperation Treaty, which heavily focuses on defence matters, to coincide with Obama’s address to both houses of parliament, into which Gillard has introduced the Defence Trade Controls Bill 2011, in order to enact that treaty into Australian law.
Numerous strategic analysts have observed that the decision to establish a U.S. base in Darwin is deliberately provocative to China; the insanity of Australia’s current foreign policy was underscored by the casual commentary from Brian Toohey on the ABC’s Insiders program on 13thNovember, on what would be required to militarily defeat, and then occupy, China—Australia’s largest trading partner and major source of national income! Toohey observed “we’re signing up to this change in U.S. military doctrine where they’re working out new ways to conduct a war against China … you’ll be sending your troops into the greatest human mincing machine ever seen.”
The Obama-British war drive is currently a runaway train, which is the last thing the American people expected when they voted for Obama in 2008. U.S. statesman and physical economist Lyndon LaRouche issued a statement on 14thNovember explaining that the reason why the British are using Obama to achieve the insane objective of a nuclear world war, is because the British oligarchy views war as a means to reduce the world’s population, in order to maintain control over the world in the context of the presently unfolding global financial collapse.
In his statement, “To stop World War III, Obama must be removed from office now”, LaRouche warned, “If Barack Obama is not thrown out of office soon, civilization is in mortal danger. The British Monarchy is out to destroy the United States as we know it, and Obama is their puppet instrument for accomplishing exactly that. The overall objective of this London-centered oligarchy is to reduce the world’s present population from the current official level of seven billion to less than one billion.
“That is the issue that can no longer be dodged, if mankind is to survive the coming weeks and months. The present drive for World War III, beginning with the targeting of Iran and Syria, is driven by the British commitment to wipe out more than 80 percent of the human race, just as Prince Philip has demanded on numerous public occasions. Anyone who tries to deny this reality is endangering mankind by their failure to face the truth.
“The British are controlling Obama as their puppet. They are engineering the crisis in Europe to impose dictatorships, and they are behind the wars and threats of global thermonuclear war. They know that their entire trans-Atlantic financial and monetary system is dead. They know that the leading nations of the Asia-Pacific region—Russia, China, India, Japan and the Koreas—are growing, relative to the rapid trans-Atlantic disintegration. This is totally unacceptable from the British standpoint, and so they are using their puppet Obama to prepare for the United States to use nuclear weapons in a global conflict, already set in motion in the new cockpit for war—the Persian Gulf and Eastern Mediterranean region …”
Responding to LaRouche’s statement, Citizens Electoral Council leader Craig Isherwood called for Australians to demand the Gillard government back away from its support for the Obama-British war drive, and return the U.S.-Australian alliance to the principles of national defence and respect for national sovereignty on which the alliance was forged by John Curtin and Franklin Roosevelt in WWII.
“John Curtin broke with British imperial strategy to forge the U.S.-Australia alliance seventy years ago, and save Australia from fascist aggression,” Isherwood said. “It is again time we broke with British strategy, this time to save the world from global genocide.”
The CEC is victimized and criticised by Australian authorities, not because it is overly rude and disrespectful to world leaders (a habit that disappoints me, even though I am not altogether above more-restrained criticisms myself), but because it reveals truths. Apparently the truth hurts! And why not? One thing governments hate is the truth about their motivations and short-comings.
As an aside, Lyndon La Rouche’s assessment of the world financial crisis, its beginning, its causes, its only solutions, are assuredly worth consideration.
So, as usual, I stress that the article be treated with an open mind, that the facts are the important thing, not the messenger, not even the method of conveying the facts. Ask yourself – is this really true? Only you can decide what you think and believe, but give yourself a chance by considering all the possibilities.
