"Lawyers and the law itself are more at home
making and observing rules than exercising judgement"

dream, how are you going to make a dream come true?" (Graeme
Fowler)

For this online news report to be ultimately
effective it must grow to such a size that it and the ideas it espouses can't be
ignored. So do your bit and help circulate it far and wide. If we are to
challenge the elites (the Packers and the Murdochs) view of history, politics,
economics, the environment, the structure of society etc., then we are going to
have to do more than wait. We are going to have to be very active and vigilant.
We have given you one of the tools (information & a medium for comment) you
will need. Help us to help you. Lets fan the flames of knowledge. Spread the
word. Editor.

Opinion: Was globalisation really
inevitable?
As we all know, Paul Keating is a University of NSW visiting professor of public policy. In that capacity he spoke at a UNSW alumni forum in Bangkok. He said protests against globalisation will continue until governments halt its impact on the poor and also halt the widening gap between the rich and the poor. Now this is a bit rich seeing as it was the "Labor" Hawke-Keating governments that took off with globalisation in this country. Malcolm Fraser wanted to, but didn't have the ticker. And there's fat chance of any relief, simply because the fools running the show will brook no interference in the sacred mystical markets. It's interesting too, that after all the "it's inevitable" tripe the media have been spouting for years, The Australian's international editor, Paul Kelly, wrote on the weekend, "Hawke and Keating weren't forced to open the Australian economy during the 1980s. As Keating says, "we could have sat it out and quietly governed" - and let the next generation deal with Australia's inexorable decline." (25-26/3/00). Talk about re-writing history! Every person who has opposed the "globalisation is inevitable" line has been abused as a luddite, a nostalgia freak, an economic troglodyte, scared of the future, and so on. And now they turn 180 degrees in one day. It's Orwellian Antonia

4. Opinion
Asianisation of
Australia
My last email detailed how the Sydney
Morning Herald has outlined the plan for the Asianisation of Australia.
The SMH with confidence correctly stated (Spectrum -
Saturday March 18 2000 - ALL OUR TOMORROW's) that Indonesia and
Australia are today part of the same global economic system. This
ECONOMIC INTEGRATION is now accepted as a fact; the SMH forecasts future
amalgamation into an Asian 'free trade' zone.
Ominously, the end result of economic integration will be that Australia is governed by Asia, through APEC, or a similar body; this will be AustralAsia. With this process the creation of the AustralAsia is to follow the standard formula that was used, by the New World Order planners, for the creation of the European Economic Community. ECONOMIC INTEGRATION FOLLOWED BY POLITICAL INTEGRATION This makes a mockery of the republicans claim that a republic will provide Australia with an independent sovereignty and represents the creation of true nationhood. What a republic will do is provide an avenue for the transfer of sovereignty, as has occurred in England, into an economic regional control center. England is now ruled from Brussels and, in the same manner, Australia will be ruled from some a trade center in Asia (Singapore perhaps ?). The above must totally change our understanding of the real purpose, meaning and effect of a republic. Asian integration can only come about AFTER the removal of Australia's current racial and political heritage, i.e. the Anglo Saxon Westminster System dominated by a Constitutional Crown. Simply our legal and political integration with Britain must be removed before our political and legal integration with Asia. Thus our existing Constitutional links are the fortress from which the 'Heritage' culture must defend themselves; logically this fortress is the first point of attack for the internationalists. Yes Virginia, Malcolm Turnbull and Goldman Sachs were interested in more than just a people's republic. Thus THE REPUBLIC IS NOW AUSTRALIA'S GREATEST RACE ISSUE. The question is whether the Australia Anglo Saxon people will allow a republic when it must mean the total annihilation of their cultural and legal ownership of Australian law. A republic will have exactly the same effect on Anglo Saxons as the landing of Captain James Cook had on the aborigines. The new invasion will transfer control to Asians. This is to say that the republic will be the demarcation point for the legal change of sovereignty to another race. Kerry Spencer-Salt +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Opinion
Naughty, naughty!
Back in 1994, Jane Campion won an Oscar for the best *original* screenplay for her film, The Piano. It seems she's not really entitled to it. A book published 1920 called "The Story of a New Zealand River" by Jane Mander tells the story of a young woman who arrives for an arranged marriage to a dominating man living in a NZ timber settlement in the late 19th century. She has an 8 year old illegitimate daughter, loves her piano and falls in love with her husband's foreman who lives in the forest. While Ms Campion's agent insists The Piano is an original screenplay, not many agree. The similarities are simply too many and too obvious. Antonia

Oscar nominations show Hollywood's
nihilism by Don Feder
AT THE ACADEMY AWARDS ceremony on Sunday
evening, Hollywood will do what it does best --
celebrate itself. "American Beauty," nominated for eight Oscars this year, shows Hollywood's reigning ethos isn't liberalism as much as a pervasive nihilism that transcends left and right. Politically, "American Beauty" is
predictable. Its most sensitive, sympathetic character is a teen-age
drug dealer. The least appealing is a retired Marine Corps colonel who beats his
son (the pusher), turns his wife into a zombie, collects guns and Nazi
memorabilia, raves about "fags" and has a secret crush on the lead character,
played by Kevin Spacey. Now that's original.
"Beauty" also indulges Hollywood's passion
for middle-class bashing -- portraying suburbia as a
wasteland of soul-dead, sexually frustrated, status-obsessed
losers.
Coming from a town whose more
prominent citizens have homes that make the Taj Mahal look like a hovel
and have gone through rehab almost as many times as they've been
married, such moralising about spiritual impoverishment is rather
droll.
But there's more to the movie than its
unremitting Motion Picture Academy correctness. "American Beauty" is the highest
expression of the cynicism, hopelessness and death of ideals that the
entertainment industry calls entertainment.
The syndrome is analysed in a new book by
Thomas Hibbs, a professor of medieval philosophy at Boston College, "Shows about
Nothing -- Nihilism in Popular Culture from 'The Exorcist' to
'Seinfeld.'"
The author defines Nietzschean
nihilism as "the moral state in which the highest values
devalue themsel human aspirations shrink, and the great questions
and elevating quests of previous ages no longer have any resonance in
the human soul."
Hibbs observed that in "serious" films we
increasingly encounter "an implacable and inexorable force, a malevolent
power that prevents not only moral transformation and understanding but even
escape."
"American Beauty" is a parable of
the meaninglessness of existence. It opens with its anti-hero (Spacey)
telling us he will be dead within a year, but that's irrelevant
because, in a sense, he's dead already. In his closing
monologue, he expresses gratitude for his "stupid, little
life," which he's come to appreciate by accepting its utter
wretchedness.
At the outset, Spacey's "stupid, little
life" consists of a boring job, shrewish wife and sullen teen-age daughter. He
has an epiphany when he falls for the latter's cheerleader friend.
Hibbs notes that Hollywood nihilism treats
"traditional divisions of good and evil, and victims and assailants as
mere conventions. Societal norms of right and wrong are
obstacles to self-knowledge, obstacles that render us timid
conformists. By contrast, anyone who breaks through the conventions
attains a kind of clarity and resolve that most lack."
For Spacey's character, this clarity and
resolve leads him to quit his job, devote himself to bodybuilding (to court his
Lolita), get high as often as possible and buy the sports car of his dreams.
Thus he achieves a salvation of sorts by reverting to a youth where his
highest ambitions were carnal and chemical.
Even this transcendence isn't enough to save
him from his inevitable fate -- to die violently at the end of the film. For
"American Beauty," good is whim indulgence. Evil does not
exist.
The dealer-next-door (who films dead birds
because he finds them aesthetic) says the father who beats him is "a good man."
In a universe without an ultimate source of values,
there is no evil, only what is.
In the most popular book of the past year,
"The Greatest Generation," Tom Brokaw speculates that the greatness of
this generation was forged by the crucible of war and depression.
Brokaw has it backward. It was the generation's values that
allowed it to overcome the century's monumental challenges. (yet
we are today being taught that values have no place in a rationalist
economically driven society - Editor)
Today, many of Hollywood's most
successful films argue that happiness is an illusion, striving is futile and
values are a myth.
Among other culprits, the recent
spate of school shooting has been blamed on cinematic
violence. That's only part of the story.
When Hollywood continually tells
impressionable adolescents that life is a hopeless, meaningless
trap, is it so surprising that some choose to exit in a blaze of
Wagnerian glory?

7. Opinion
The winners In Australia, Jack has always been as good as his master, but increasingly our society is being class-ridden. There has always been variation in people's wealth and fortunes, and that's as it should be in a free society where people vary in their intelligence, motivation, drive, energy, etc. But what's happening now is different. People are not being treated equally any more. Some are definitely more equal than others. You see it in prominent people getting away with drink-driving charges. Kennett should have lost his licence once, but he didn't. Lady Renouf got off too. Perhaps it's always been so, and it's merely more blatant now. They don't care that people see there are two sets of rules. Another example was the secret reservation of tickets for the Games so the elite didn't have to compete with the rabble. The latest example of the contempt for ordinary people was that ALL first release waterfront units at Walsh Bay in Sydney were bought by VIPs before they were opened for *public* inspection. All. They ranged in price from an el cheapo at $ 825,000 up to a cool $ 5.5 million. Antonia +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 8. Opinion
And the losers At the other end, people are now being brainwashed that casual and part-time work is 'fun'. The Olympic project manager for the recruitment company Adecco that is supplying labour for the army of waiters, ushers, newspaper sellers etc was spinning the line that it will be an exciting, "I was there" experience. The working conditions don't sound much fun at all. For a start the normal shift will be 12 hours. That's 6 am to 6 pm, or whatever. Twelve hours makes a very long day. Overtime will commence after 12 hours and there's a 50 per cent chance of it being required. They want people who have the correct attitude, and we've already read about that last week. They don't want anybody to say, "G'day". Probably such naturalness doesn't demonstrate the right level of servility. The managing director of another recruiting company said workers must be "people with the right mindset, people who say yes when others say no." Perhaps Neil might offer a green frog to anybody who knows what that means. Does it mean he wants doormats? Antonia ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
9. Opinion
Telstra
They're not all that good on the PR front at Telstra, are they. Ziggy obviously didn't see anything wrong in announcing job cuts of 10,000 in the same breath as a $2.1 billion profit. And the latest story shows the same thick hide. Telstra sponsored a three day local government conference at Menindee, and installed a base station in the town. The locals were happy chappies - their mobiles worked. The bigwigs came to town - Premier Bob Carr plus ministers. The conference ended - and - and - Telstra pulled down the equipment and left town too! No more mobile phone access for a shire as big as Tasmania. The mayor of the Central Darling shire couldn't believe it, saying it would have cost them as much to take it down as to put it up. Why didn't they just leave it? Telstra said a mobile service was not viable, and that the shire should seek government funds to provide a service. Antonia

When the bad guy is black by Larry Elder
THE DOUBLE STANDARD slaps you in the face.
Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania. Ronald Taylor, a
black man, allegedly guns down five whites, killing three. What followed
became a textbook case on how contemporary American journalism deals with
race.
The suspect's motive could not have
been more clear. A black neighbour quoted Taylor as saying,
"I'm gonna kill all white people."
A white maintenance man described Taylor as
disruptive ever since he moved into the apartment building, "Whenever he
saw me, he'd call me a racist pig, or white trash, or he'd make a point
of walking past me and brushing up against me. He just didn't like
me."
Yet the media leaned over backward
to avoid any appearance of racism. News anchors cautioned that we don't
know whether Taylor's alleged hatred against whites was the "primary" or "sole"
reason for the shootings. Pardon me. When did they add that
requirement?
The Hate Crimes Sentencing
Enhancement Act defines hate crime as: "Crime in which the defendant
intentionally selects a victim, or in the case of a property crime, the property
that is the object of the crime, because of the actual or perceived race,
colour, religion, national origin, ethnicity, gender, disability, or sexual
orientation of any person." No mention of hatred as a "sole" or
"primary" motive.
Even the police issued mild,
tentative statements about whether they considered Taylor's actions a
hate crime. "There's a lot of hostility in this individual,"
said Wilkinsburg Police Chief Gerald Brewer, "so I think it's a little premature
to simply define this as a racist event." A little
premature?
In August 1999, white supremacist
Buford Furrow gunned down several people at a Jewish Community
Center in Los Angeles, and shot and killed a Filipino letter carrier. In
the three days following the shooting, over 150 newspapers wrote nearly 200
articles about the slaughter.
On Nov. 11, 1999, in Kansas City, an
Ethiopian man shot and killed two co-workers and wounded a third person.
All the victims were white. The Ethiopian shooter, who
also shot and killed himself, left a letter referring to "bloodsucker"
whites. To date, how many newspapers carried a story about this
apparent race-based shooting? Eleven.
The killing of Wyoming gay student Matthew
Shephard brought screaming headlines and around-the-clock coverage. So did the
dragging and killing of black Texan James Byrd. Jesse
Jackson parachutes into Decatur, Ill., turning the expulsion of seven high
school kids into a referendum on race.
Meanwhile, in Missouri, a car-jacker steals
a car. He tries to push out a seat belt-strapped child, and drives at high
speeds, with the boy bouncing to his death along the highway. In Michigan, a 6-year-old girl is shot and killed by a 6-year-old
boy. In these cases, the media informs us much, much later that the
bad guys are black. Were it the other way around, how long before
Al Sharpton holds a press conference, with a sombre
Kweisi Mfume of the NAACP by his side?
Atlanta Braves relief pitcher John Rocker
shoots his mouth off to Sports Illustrated, and everyone from Jesse Jackson to
Jesse James piles on. But the same gang seemed strangely AWOL in the case of
Wilkinsburg, Penn.
Where's the sombre gathering of the
"black leadership" demanding that Congress pass enhanced hate
crime legislation? Where's the speech by President Clinton asking some
blacks to cope with their pronounced and mostly unwarranted anti-white
bias?
The double standard simply
astonishes. George W. Bush must apologise for speaking at Bob Jones
University, given the institution's anti-Catholic statements and policy against
interracial dating. And on the question of the Confederate flag, the media filed
story after story on the Republicans' response.
Yet the media allows Al Gore's black
female campaign manager, Donna Brazile, to derisively refer to the Republicans
as the "party of the white boys," while suggesting black Republicans J.C. Watts
and Colin Powell (the general who commanded the United Nations army
against Iraq in Operation Desert Storm - Editor) are Uncle
Toms.
The media sits as both Al Gore
and Hillary Rodham Clinton trek to Harlem and kiss the
ring of the Reverend Al Sharpton, a David Duke
(Leader of the KKK - Editor) in
blackface.
Nevermind that Sharpton falsely
accused a prosecutor of rape. Nevermind that Sharpton turned a
dispute between a black tenant and a Jewish landlord into a racial
riff. Stirred up by Sharpton's rantings, a black man set fire to the
building in dispute, and then, shot and killed several minorities before turning
the gun on himself. Nice work, Reverend.
Sooner or later, the
mainstream media and the white-man-done-me-wrong black leadership must
face the facts. Black / white interracial crime is almost entirely committed by
blacks against whites. By ignoring this, and holding black criminals to
a different standard, the media heightens tension and divisiveness
(Unfortunately Intentionally; helps to sell papers -
Editor).
The president's travelling Advisory
Board on Race urged Americans to be candid with one another on race. Somebody
tell the media.

11. Opinion
Our booming economy
A relentless stream of propaganda from all the media daily assures us that Australia has a booming economy and that we are enjoying record prosperity. It's so pervasive and confident we feel a bit guilty even thinking, let alone saying, "But what about the job losses? What about the retrenched skilled workers who are considered lucky to find casual and part-time jobs? Why do couples with young children both need to work? With no job security how can people plan for their future? How can young couples buy a house? How come a full third of men in their family-formative years are in poverty? How come some 700,000 children are in homes with nobody working? Australia's booming economy is a lie. And nothing better illustrates it than the following story. One of the new economy's successes, a 35 year old billionaire, saw his personal fortune drop $ 6 billion - yes billion! In a few hours of trading his company, Micro Strategy, dropped from being worth US$13.6 billion to US$3.8 billion. Is this real economic growth in the way most people understand the term? No, it's gambling pure and simple. Fred Argy is under no illusions about what's happening in the economy: "We are witnessing a dual economy at work across the world - in the real economy we have moderate to high unemployment, fierce competition in product markets, subdued wages, low product inflation, a decline in the range and quality of public services, a squeeze of low income home-buyers out of inner areas, and growing inequalities in wealth and quality of life." (Australian Financial Review, 8 / 1 / 99). That's the economy most people experience. It's a very different from the triumphalist trumpetings about Australia's record prosperity by the government and their media mates. Fred Argy has also well described the other economy - the one the government brags about. It's the one "where speculators - the new barbarians at the gates - want to have fun making a quick buck." (7.30 Report, 26/4/95). The cognitive dissonance shouldn't be so bad now. Antonia ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
12. Life Sciences:
12. a) Subject: Interstate Canola
Crop Scandal Unfolds
Does anyone know about the GM sugarcane trials in the Innisfail or Ingham regions?? While spending a few days at Hinchinbroook Island a few months ago, I overheard a conversation between two other guests at the table next to me about such trials to take place. I pretended to be interested in the subject and one of the guys mentioned that he worked on a project between the CSIRO / DPI and one of the agri-chemical companies. I could, of course not divulge who I was, just pretend that I thought it was all very interesting. The conversation then changed to other subject and I had the distinct feeling that the guy smelled a rat and suspected that I may be a fellow scientist. Maybe I did not sound 'amateurish' enough. If such trials are already on the way, it presents a grave danger to our cane industry, since sugarcane is a freely pollinating crop and pollen (a known allergy and asthma trigger) travel for many miles and can contaminate regular crops from unsuspecting farms in the district and beyond! Veronica Griffin,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tasmania at Risk as Interstate
Canola Crop Scandal Unfolds
Sen B. Brown has alerted that his
state is at risk from GMO crop trials, following the revelation that
trials over the past three years in South Australia were done without
the knowledge of the farmers who leased the fields, and that
contaminated crops were disposed of in a public tip rather than
being buried as required by the Code of Practice.
This of course rings warning bells for Queensland too, who have embraced biotechnology as no other, and funded the establishment of a Centre of Excellence in Biotechnology in SE Queensland. What credibility do the proponents have, that the assurances of conformity with applicable codes will be ensured, with such flagrant violations elsewhere in Australia? We call for a moratorium on the construction of the massive IMB in residential St Lucia, until such time as adequate and "fool proof" regimes can be established to control the dangerous GM technology.

"Genes encode proteins
involved in the control of virtually all biological processes. By
transferring genes across species barriers which have existed
for aeons between species like humans and sheep we risk
breaching natural thresholds against unexpected biological
processes. For example, an incorrectly folded form of an ordinary cellular
protein can under certain circumstances be replicative and give rise to
infectious neurological disease". Articles Forwarded by Veronica Griffin

A Potential Life Saver
A friend sent me this, and I'll pass it on. Hope it's never needed, but if it is, this might make the difference. It certainly makes some sense. Let's say it's 6:17 p.m. and you're driving home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job. Not only was the workload extraordinarily heavy, you also had a disagreement with your boss, and no matter how hard you tried he just wouldn't see your side of the situation. You're really upset and the more you think about it the more uptight you become. All of a sudden you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home, unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far. What can you do? You've been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course neglected to tell you how to perform it on yourself. Many people are alone when they suffer a heart
attack. What can you do? Without help a person whose heart
stops beating properly begins to feel faint and has about 10
seconds left before losing consciousness. However, these
victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very
vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough
must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside
the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two
seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the
heart is felt to be beating normally
again.
Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and
coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood
circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps
it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get
to a phone and, between breaths, call for help. You'll be giving
yourself CPR with this technique. Tell as many other people as
possible about this, it could save their lives! The above was taken

Labors Policy towards the
ABC
27 March 2000
The Editor, Toowoomba Chronicle
PO Box 40, Toowomba Qld 4350 Dear Sir
Labor must reveal its secret agenda
on the ABC to the Australian people. Labor's demand today for a full Senate review of the ABC Act is
an open admission that Labor wants to change the Act. Otherwise
why review it?
Kim Beazley must say what is wrong
with the Act now, what he wants to change and why. Mr Beazley must explain why Australians shouldn't fear this
review as yet another Labor attack on ABC independence.
Labor has a long track record of
pontificating about "safeguarding the independence of the ABC"
while stacking the Board with trade union mates and former Labor
Premiers. Now the party's communications
spokesman Stephen Smith is at it again. He today claimed that "the
independence of the ABC…goes to the heart of my concern" – this is
rubbish.
Mr Smith is demanding a full Senate inquiry
into "the role of the ABC in the future, the role of the ABC in the digital
world". He specifically stated that Labor wants to review the
Australian Broadcasting Corporation Act 1983, especially "the viability and
relevance of the Act into the future".
Why? Tell us what you want to
do to the ABC.
Labor keeps accusing the Government of all
sorts of weird conspiracy theories about the ABC. Labor remains the only political party to have released an
official policy of direct intervention in ABC internal affairs – the
1998 communications policy says Labor will direct the ABC Board where to spend
funds.
Yours sincerely.

Feedback:
Inequity in the Queensland Legal
System
Neil, the simple answer is that the
Supreme Court is a corrupt Court. There is no way in
equity that One Nation is not entitled to be registered, and If the
Supreme Court had constituted itself in accordance with its jurisdiction statute
in equity, there is no way this amount can be charged against Pauline.
The corruption lies in the constitution of the court contrary to the Acts which govern its makeup. In equity, that which is supposed to be done is deemed to be done. An equitable decision is that 400,000 plus Queenslanders voted for a Party, and by their vote, One Nation, in equity is legitimate. One judges vote cannot count for more than 400,000. Some cases, "Orr V Ford 1988 High Court." Equity entitles the party to its vote money. The fraud is the Queensland Government welching upon its publicly enacted obligation to pay a certain amount for every vote counted. A Federal law, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights as Schedule 2 to the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission Act 1986, and the statement of this undeniable fact as a recital, that it binds the State of Queensland in the front of the Anti Discrimination Act 1991 is an estoppal on the State of Queensland recovering the money from One Nation. Let the dogs try to pursue bankruptcy as a way to recover the money. It is then a federal matter, and Section 28 Crimes Act 1914 which guarantees political freedom to all Australians may be used against anyone who would issue a bankruptcy notice. Pauline and others were mere trustees of that money, and cannot be held personally liable except upon a jury verdict, by the Trusts Act 1973. This is not private and may be published anywhere under the protection of Section 45 Criminal Code (Q) and Section 24F Crimes Act 1914. Regards. Colin
