I’m not familiar with the Adelaide mob but the Sydney mob are LLL’s
controlled by the Socialist workers party. They threatened, abused
and ridiculed me for handing out S11 stuff at anti war rallies.
Heh ! The funny thing was that, not realizing that I was the same
person, they once asked the band to do a benefit concert for them. I
agreed – on the condition that they publish a two page feature on
Sept 11, written by me in their paper. This put them into an
embarrassing spin and they said it was “controversial” and
“politically risky”.
They kept handballing the decision around the office, everyone
saying that the decision was not theirs to make but they “didn’t
think” that the editors would go for it.
Enjoying the situation, I just said whatever they decided was fine,
and that we’d even do the gig anyway – just as long as whoever was
in charge gave me a definite yes or no to the article – to my face.
They even chickened out from that and I never heard from them again.

...so what's Mike Khizam's take on 9/11? Is he also a socialist
worker gatekeeper?
where are the real banners? 1000 people wasting space, time and
opportunity.
They should arrest them for dumbness and ignorance :)

Police threaten to arrest protesters
By NIGEL HUNT
16nov05 DEMONSTRATORS were last night reassessing their tactics
after being refused permission to hold a demonstration on the steps
of Parliament House during U.S. Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's
Adelaide visit.
The No War movement, which is expecting up to 1000 protesters to
converge on Adelaide tomorrow, has been advised by the city council
that its demonstration will be unlawful.
No War spokesman Mike Khizam yesterday told The Advertiser police
had advised organisers that protesters would be arrested if they
refused directions to move on...

Just a heads up that Rumsfeld is in Adelaide, presumably cooking up
something here. They’ve shut down half the city for security.
Thousands of people can’t even get to work.
