OZZIE GOVERNMENT COMPENSATE MAN WRONGFULLY CONVICTED OF RAPE IN DNA MIX-UP
farah jama The Victorian Government has awarded compensation to a man who was wrongfully convicted of rape because of a DNA mix-up.

In 2008 Farah Jama was found guilty of raping a woman based solely on DNA evidence. He was jailed for 16 months before the court of appeal ordered his release.

In a review, retired Supreme Court Judge Frank Vincent found that swabs from the alleged victim were accidentally contaminated with Mr Jama's DNA. Mr Jama has settled his claim for $550,000, but his lawyers are still hoping he will get a personal apology. One of Mr Jama's lawyers, Hina Pasha, says the compensation settlement was reached on Friday. "Provided that Mr Jama's happy and can move on with his life, it's an adequate settlement," he said. "In terms of whether he can ever be compensated for the amount of time he was incarcerated is a matter of opinion." Victorian Attorney-General Rob Hulls has said sorry publicly, but Mr Pasha says his client has not received a personal apology

"It would make a profound difference if Mr Jama was to receive an apology and I would hope that that would be forthcoming very soon," he said. Last year Mr Jama said his experience of being found guilty of a crime he did not commit was terrifying. "Really, really, really bad - cannot imagine how bad I felt," he said at the time.

Mr Jama's family is now considering launching further legal action against the State Government and Victoria Police for nervous shock they suffered during the ordeal. A spokeswoman for Mr Hulls says Mr Jama has not made a request to meet with him, but that Mr Hulls would be happy to do so.

  • FORMER AUSTRALIAN MAYOR WANTED RENT BOY TORTURED AND KILLED
    james markham FORMER Waverley mayor James Robert Markham discussed organising the torture and murder of a male prostitute, a Sydney court has heard.

    Markham, 73, was the subject of a report on the Nine Network's A Current Affair (ACA) that went to air in May 2008. The program launched an investigation after being contacted by Adam Tolmie, 47, with information that Markham, his uncle, had tried to solicit him to hurt a Sydney-based male escort named Alex. Tolmie said the escort had been trying to extort money from a friend of Markham's.

    At a committal hearing in the Downing Centre Local Court on Monday, a secretly recorded conversation between Tolmie and Markham was played. In it, Tolmie talks about tying the escort up in an abandoned meat works, pouring petrol on him, rolling him in broken glass and setting pit bull terriers on him.

    A number of sexual acts are also discussed to "humiliate'' the victim. Markham is heard to say: "I'm quite happy to watch the whole thing.'' In another secretly recorded conversation in a car, ACA reporter Ben Fordham, posing as a hitman, asks Markham if he wants the victim "breathing or not breathing''. "Not breathing if there's any chance of being identified by police,'' Markham says.

    Markham, who is excused from proceedings because of ill health, is charged with two counts of soliciting to murder and two counts of recruiting for the purpose of criminal activity. Markham's barrister John Dailly, SC, said he would argue that Tolmie was "inciting the accused to a variety of deviant and torturous'' acts and the conversation with Fordham was a repetition of that. Tolmie and Fordham are also before the courts, accused of breaching the Listening Devices Act. Markham's hearing is continuing before Magistrate Jane Culver.

  • AUSTRALIAN BUSINESSMAN BRUTALISED AND JAILED FOR DARING TO ASK COP HIS NAME
    lindsay walters EMBATTLED Surfers Paradise police are embroiled in a fresh misconduct probe after a retired businessman was allegedly brutalised and thrown in a cell.

    Lindsay Walters, 61, says he was subjected to shocking treatment at Surfers Paradise police station last month when he went in to pay a fine for his son. He claims he was sworn at, handcuffed and threatened that his arms would be broken. The wealthy Paradise Waters businessman has made a formal complaint to the Crime and Misconduct Commission alleging unlawful arrest, deprivation of liberty and serious assault. The CMC says the case could amount to official misconduct and has referred the allegations to the police Ethical Standards Command. It is the latest scandal for Surfers police, who are at the centre of a major CMC probe into allegations of involvement in the Glitter Strip's nightclub drug trade.

    In a police statement, Mr Walters said he went to Surfers police station on May 4 after two officers called at his home that day in relation to an arrest warrant for his 28-year-old son Ben over an unpaid traffic fine in Victoria. He said he arranged to pay the $1000 fine for his son but when he went to the station was told the officer handling the matter was out. He said he asked civilly several times to speak with the officer-in-charge. An officer eventually emerged and allegedly told him: ``You've got two (expletive) choices sit there and wait or I'll arrest you.'' Mr Walters said he replied: ``Well, that won't happen, because I'll leave.'' He said he was affronted by the officer's demeanour and turned to walk out.

    ``Before I exited, I turned and said, `excuse me, can I have your name please?''' Mr Walters said in the statement. ``At this instant, the officer burst through a door, strode quickly over to me and seized my left forearm. He forced my arm behind my back and said `you're under arrest'. I felt an intense burning pain in my shoulders and neck. I said, `why am I being arrested?'. The officer replied: `An outstanding warrant'.'' Despite his protestations, Mr Walters said his arms were forced back and he was handcuffed, causing intense pain. He admits to ``some resistance'' but said he was ``shocked and amazed'' by the way he was treated. He said that as he was being handcuffed, the officer said: ``Stop resisting or I'll break your (expletive) arms.'' Mr Walters said his belongings were seized and he was forced into a cell. He was released about 15 minutes later when the officer who had been handling his son's warrant returned. The officer apologised for his colleague's conduct and accepted the $1000 fine payment, Mr Walters said.

    He said the officer who locked him up threatened to charge him with public nuisance but he was released without charge. ``If I was playing up, why didn't they charge me?'' he said yesterday. ``I was humiliated and treated like a common criminal ... all for trying to do the right thing. ``I've never been in trouble with the law and some of my closest friends are serving and retired police, but this bloke (the officer) deserves to lose his job over this. I'm not going to let him get away with it.'' A police spokeswoman confirmed an internal investigation into the incident was under way.

  • NEW ZEALAND HOMOSEXUAL EX-PRINCIPAL TOLD TO GO AND HANG HIMSELF
    richardjoel Former school principal Richard Joel was told to hang himself after being sentenced for historic child sexual abuse.

    Two former pupils he had repeatedly molested yelled out the words as Joel, 62, was led from the dock at Wellington District Court after being jailed for four years and nine months yesterday. Joel had pleaded guilty to 16 charges of indecent assault and inducing boys under 16 to do indecent acts. He had abused one boy for each of the first seven years of a four-decade-long teaching career. They were aged between seven and 12 years – and one nine-year-old went on to become a convicted paedophile.

    In his victim impact statement, that man, now 45, described Joel as his role model. He said he was infatuated but after, being discarded by the teacher, hated being male. "Evil was how I feel my life became after I met Richard Joel ... my life may have been so much more ... "

    Another victim, now 44, recalled being confused when he was abused as a 10-year-old but was afraid to tell anyone because he came from a poor family and felt he would be called a liar. The Wellington man said the experience had left him with depression and intimacy problems and had tainted his view of Europeans. "I was shocked, I burst into tears when police came to my home. Since that day I can't stop crying, I couldn't believe [the sexual abuse] was out in the open." Defence lawyer Shane Robinson told the court that Joel was remorseful and had no previous convictions.

    The damage he had done had to be weighed against the positive contribution he made to the lives of many other children, he said. The teacher had worked at Corinna School in Porirua, Waitangirua Intermediate and Newlands Intermediate and was principal of Rewa Rewa School in Newlands when he was arrested in October. Mr Robinson said Joel had suffered a "a significant fall from grace", losing his reputation, profession, and standing in the community.

    Judge Bruce Davidson said Joel's offending was systematic and sustained, against victims who were very young and inherently vulnerable. "It was a wholesale breach of your trust as a teacher." Though there appeared to be no further offending after 1976, material found on his computer by police showed Joel "maintained an interest in boys". Outside court, Detective Sergeant Dan Keno said the victims would have liked to have seen a longer sentence.

    "They are satisfied that he will be behind bars and not at risk of reoffending." Joel faced sentencing as if he had been charged in 1976. Similar offending in 2010 would have seen him charged with sexual violation and receiving a much longer prison term.

    Rewa Rewa School board of trustees chairwoman Helen Richards said the school community had been shocked and concerned when Joel was arrested last year and could now move forward. With stricter background checks on teachers today it was not as feasible for sexual abuse to happen in schools, she said.

  • CREDIT CARD ABUSE RIFE BY NEW ZEALAND'S MINISTERS
    NEW ZEALAND PARLIAMENT

    Free-spending government ministers abused their taxpayer-funded credit cards against the backdrop of a Yes Minister culture.

    As former Labour ministers lined up to justify their spending – including a $300 tour of the Taj Mahal, a month-long, $22,000 tour of Europe and a five-hour taxi ride – Prime Minister John Key has told officials to show no mercy from now on. "I've said to them it's got to stop ... They should be cutting up the credit cards of people who use them [inappropriately]." The release of thousands of credit card receipts from Labour's time in government showed some ministers lived it up on their cards overseas, with fine wines and expensive dinners. Others pushed the boundaries further.

    Labour list MP Shane Jones, who bought pornography and chocolate on the taxpayer, and former conservation minister Chris Carter, who bought flowers and massages, are both lined up for demotion on Monday by furious leader Phil Goff. But much of the spending was approved by officials and classed as legitimate. Mr Key blamed a system in which all the power lay with ministers' offices, rather than the officials who were supposed to police their spending. "Ministerial Services have been working on the principle that they want to accommodate ministers and their offices.

    They do almost everything they can to accommodate them." Mr Key is also signalling more transparency in future: ministerial credit card receipts are likely to be released quarterly, at the same time as MPs' travel and accommodation expenses are disclosed. Auditor-General Lyn Provost is also expected to recommend a cleanup of the rules when she reports back from a long-running inquiry, sparked by revelations that Fisheries Minister Phil Heatley wrongly spent more than $1000 on his credit card. Labour fears fallout.

  • AUSTRALIA PART OF FAKE PASSPORT SWAPPING CLUB
    AUSTRALIAN security agencies use false passports issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs to allow covert operatives to function overseas, intelligence sources have admitted.

    Following the admission by the Deputy Opposition Leader, Julie Bishop, about Australian use of fake passports, sources confirmed Australia has a long-standing tradition of providing passports to overseas intelligence agencies. These countries are within the ''Western intelligence club'' - specifically Britain, the United States, New Zealand and Canada, sources confirm.

    While the government has leapt upon Ms Bishop's comments, accusing her of a grievous breach of national security, sources within the intelligence community have confirmed she merely made public an inconvenient truth. Security agencies, including the international spy agency, the Australian Secret Intelligence Service, as well as ASIO and the federal police, use false passports issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs to allow covert operatives to function overseas. Australia does not use the identities of its citizens or forge existing passports. Rather, it creates a passport of a fictitious person and provides it to an intelligence operative. It is a practice similar to that used by state police when they create fake identities for undercover police officers. In the grey world of espionage the necessity for covert activity can be great, and from time to time - in Australia perhaps as seldom as once a year - the Department of Foreign Affairs will create a passport at the request of an agency. The only caveat is that the intelligence service keep Foreign Affairs informed of the movement of the agent through national borders.

    The Australian government would also be extremely judicious in its use of such passports, particularly so when providing them to other countries. There is a big difference between creating fake passports and using real passports, as in the Mossad assassination of arms dealer Mahmoud al-Mabhouh that led Australia to expel an Israeli diplomat this week. What Israel did was to forge the passports of actual foreign nationals - including four Australians - to use for their agents. Ms Bishop - a cabinet minister in the Howard government - was pounced upon by Labor after her comments to the Herald on Tuesday. ''It wasn't what you would call kosher,'' one intelligence source said.

  • AUSTRALIAN COP'S MURDER CHARGE LIKELY TO BE DROPPED
    paul dale Another mason cop getting away with murder thanks to masons in the prosecution office

    The ABC understands the Office of Public Prosecutions will drop the murder case against former Victoria Police Drug Squad detective Paul Dale next week. Dale was arrested and charged over the murder of police informant Terrence Hodson in February last year and is alleged to have arranged the hit. Mr Hodson, a drug dealer, was to give evidence against the sacked detective over the alleged theft of more than $1 million worth of ecstasy from a drug safe house. In May 2004 he and his wife Christine Hodson were shot execution-style in their Kew home in Melbourne's eastern suburbs.

    It is understood police have now told the couple's family the charges against Dale would not proceed. The Office of Public Prosecutions has refused to comment on the matter. Victoria Police set up the Petra Taskforce to investigate the couple's slaying in 2007.

    At the time, the then deputy police commissioner Simon Overland pointed to "very interesting" connections to former police officers, adding they remained the focus of investigations. It took nearly another two years before Dale was arrested. Two key people had turned Crown witness against him. Earlier this month the ABC revealed one of those witnesses was Nicola Gobbo, a high-profile Melbourne lawyer who wore a wire to record evidence against him.

    She is now suing Victoria Police, alleging it failed to protect her and backed out of a compensation deal when she gave up her lucrative career to be a witness. The ABC understands the police will try to revive the case against Dale if new evidence comes to light. Existing evidence that was to be tried in court could now be made public before the Coroners Court. Dale was among the first police officers to be sacked by former Victoria police chief commissioner Christine Nixon for alleged corrupt behaviour. Corruption charges against him were later dropped.

  • AUSTRALIAN OMBUDSMAN REPORT FINDS SEX ABUSE OF FOSTER CHILDREN IN VICTORIA
    A DAMNING ombudsman report has found children in foster care are being physically and sexually abused, raped by other children, engaged in prostitution and sexually exploited.

    The report into the Victorian government's handling of child protection has uncovered instances where carers have sold drugs to children, broken the limbs of children or knocked them unconscious and placed children in their care with “adult friends” who then engage in sexual acts. Ombudsman George Brouwer found that the Department of Human Services failed to adequately screen foster carers where vulnerable children were sent, especially in regard to kinship carers, which are relatives or friends of the child.

    “In reviewing the circumstances of a number of children I have concluded that further harm may have been avoided if adequate screening and assessment of their carers had occurred,” he wrote. “It is unacceptable that these children were harmed when there was information available to indicate that their carers posed a risk to them.” Mr Brouwer found there was evidence “that a less rigorous screening process” has been applied when placing children with family members, which has placed some children at risk.

    He also found in his investigation instances where vulnerable children were being placed with other children who had a history of sexually abusive behaviour, siblings being separated, use of carers with lack of training and non-compliance with Aboriginal child placement policies. “The sexual exploitation of young people in the out-of-home care system has been indentified as a significant issue, with incident reports indentifying a group of children in out-of-home care who are involved in prostitution and sexual exploitation,” he wrote. Mr Brouwer found the department had failed to act on similar concerns he raised in 2005 and there was a “lack of transparency and independent oversight” in relation to the quality of care being provided.

  • THE RISE OF AUSTRALIAN BILLIONAIRES ON THE BACK OF MYTHICAL CREDIT CRUNCH
    frank lowy Shopping centre magnate Frank Lowy has been named the richest person in Australia in 2010, bumping Anthony Pratt, the son of late cardboard king Richard Pratt, off the top spot.

    Mr Lowy, the co-founder of the Westfield group, tops the BRW Rich 200 list for the first time with his $5.04 billion fortune. After a sluggish year for wealth in 2009, Australia's richest people have bounced back in style this year, adding more than $21 billion to the list. The total wealth of the list has risen from $114 billion to almost $136 billion.

    The property and resource sectors have been named the country's most profitable industries. As miners around the country rail against the Federal Government's plan to tax 40 per cent of their profits, those in the industry named on this year's list are said to have a combined wealth of about $7.9 billion more than a year ago. Australia's richest woman is iron ore magnate Gina Rinehart, who finishes second on the overall list. Her $4.75 billion fortune, derived from the value of her iron ore tenements, rises from $3.47 billion thanks to strong commodity prices and increased production at her privately owned mines.

    Other women to make the list include iron ore heiress Angela Bennet ($2.09 billion) and Naomi Milgrom, the executive of Australian fashion's Sussan Group ($367 million). Mr Pratt, chief executive of Pratt Industries and board member of Visy, is in third place with his $4.60 billion wealth, up from $4.30 billion a year ago. Fortescue Metals Group chief Andrew Forrest finishes fourth with $4.24 billion, up from $2.38 billion in 2009.

    Australian politicians also had their wealth measured on this year's list, with Liberal MP Malcolm Turnbull's $186 million fortune making him the richest politician. Prime Minister Kevin Rudd was next with a $56 million fortune.

    BRW also researched the wealth of all federal MPs, finding the average wealth of Liberal MPs, $4.9 million, is almost three times that of Labor MPs ($1.7 million). The youngest person to make the rich list this year is 34-year-old Nathan Tinkler. Mr Tinkler is an electrician turned coal mine investor whose fortune is this year listed at $355 million.

    Overall top seven

    1.Frank Lowy ($5.04 billion)
    2.Gina Rinehart ($4.75 billion)
    3.Anthony Pratt ($4.6 billion)
    4.Andrew Forrest ($4.24 billion)
    5.Harry Triguboff ($4.2 billion)

  • AUSTRALIAN MINISTER DAVID CAMPBELL WAS RIGHT TO QUIT OVER GAY CLUB SCANDAL
    david campbell NSW Premier Kristina Keneally says former minister David Campbell did the right thing by quitting his portfolios and said that he had been living a double life for over two decades after revelations he used a ministerial car to visit a gay sex club.

    "David came to me and told me directly that this was a secret he had been carrying for over two decades,'' she told journalists this morning. Ms Keneally said the events had been very distressing for Mr Campbell's wife and children. "I think David has made a decision that is right for him and his family,'' she said. "He has been living with a secret about his sexuality for over two decades.'' Ms Keneally said the way his secret was revealed was "most devastating''.

    Ms Keneally said Mr Campbell had told her he had not been subject to any blackmail or intimidation. "He has clearly and unambiguously said 'no','' she said. The Seven Network last night aired footage of the married Mr Campbell allegedly visiting the self-described intimate sex venue in the city's east. Is former NSW transport minister David Campbell's gay double life a matter of public interest? According to Seven, the 52-year-old father of two adult sons visited Ken's at Kensington on Anzac Parade, in Ms Keneally's state electorate of Heffron, on Tuesday night for about two hours. The TV report showed footage of Mr Campbell, wearing a white business shirt and dark trousers but no jacket, leaving a venue and heading into a dark street.

    The MP is alleged to have used a taxpayer-funded government car to drive himself to and from the club, after giving his driver the night off. Less than half an hour before the Seven report was aired at 6pm (AEST), Mr Campbell issued a brief statement saying he had handed his resignation to Ms Keneally. Ms Keneally said her thoughts "are most strikingly'' with Mr Campbell's wife and family. She said "this has been a total shock to all who know David''.

    "This is a very human tragedy, it brings with it some very human emotions,'' she added. Ms Keneally said her cabinet was shocked by the revelations and by the manner in which they became public. "What we have here is a unique case ... I think it is disappointing, particularly for his wife, the way in which this secret was revealed,'' she said.

    Ms Keneally said the events - which had "stunned and shocked'' her - raised questions about the media and how the community responded to such revelations. She said she and her colleagues were concerned about the effect on Mr Campbell's wife. She said Mr Campbell was with his family in Wollongong, on the state's south coast. "Human beings have complex and messy lives and sadly sometimes those situations have negative consequences for those around them,'' she said. Ms Keneally said Mr Campbell's political career had been a distinguished one.

    In his statement, Mr Campbell, who was transport and roads minister, said he would remain in parliament as the member for Keira. Former unionist John Robertson will now take on the portfolio of transport while David Borger adds roads to his portfolio of minister for western Sydney, but drops housing. Ms Keneally said ministers are allowed to use their taxpayer-funded ministerial cars for personal use, noting that she used hers to attend church, go the grocery store and her children's soccer matches. Even so, she said Mr Campbell had perhaps shown a "lack of judgment'', but stressed he was living with a long-held secret. Asked if Mr Campbell's situation would affect the state government's chances at the election to be held in March 2011, she said: "Every election is winnable and every election is losable.''

    "What I do is to ... focus on delivering services, like (the new transport ticketing system) MyZone and ... delivering new directions for the state,'' she said. In his statement announcing his resignation as minister yesterday Mr Campbell did not directly address the allegations, citing only "personal reasons''. "I apologise to my wife, family, colleagues, staff and the community for letting them down,'' the statement said.

  • MURDER ACCUSED NEW ZEALAND GRANDMOTHER WOULDN'T HELP PARAMEDICS
    joanne tahuri As her granddaughter lay in the next room, dying of severe head injuries, Joanne Tahuri refused to tell paramedics what had happened, a court has heard.

    Tahuri is standing trial for the murder of Cherishsiliala Tahuri-Wright, known as Cherish, in the High Court at Whanganui. The Porirua toddler died of severe head injuries in Wellington Hospital on February 19 last year. The Crown alleges Tahuri inflicted a blow strong enough to cause a subdural haematoma, or bleeding between the brain and skull. However, the defence intends to argue a combination of factors - including assaults by the toddlers' three-year-old cousin - contributed to Cherish's death. On day three of the trial today, the jury heard from St John Ambulance Officer Bruce Tolhopf, who was the first paramedic called to Tahuri's house on February 17, 2009. He received a call at 12.20pm that day and arrived at 12.39pm, with another paramedic, to find Cherish lying on a bed with her jaw locked and hands cramped. She also had fixed pupils was also experiencing slight seizures, he said.

    "They were short spasms and jerking movements. They came in pulses." All could be considered signs of brain damage, he said. Mr Tolhopf said he administered oxygen then talked to Tahuri in an attempt to find out any information that could assist with saving Cherish's life. "The first two times I asked her [what happened?] she said 'I don't want to talk about it'. The next time I asked she said she wouldn't talk about it and walked back inside. 'NO, NO, NO, I DON'T WANT THEM INVOLVED'

    Earlier today, Shona Bollinger - who lived near Tahuri in Marton on the day Cherish received her fatal injuries - gave evidence. Ms Bollinger said Tahuri came to her house around 11am on February 17, 2008 in a panicked state to borrow the phone. She overheard Tahuri on the phone with her partner Alan Hunia, saying, "Can you come home urgently please, there's something wrong with Cherish," Ms Bollinger said. When she asked Tahuri what was wrong, Ms Bollinger was told, "There's blood coming out of her mouth and she's had trouble breathing."

    Ms Bollinger said she rang 111 for an ambulance but could not get through, so she called the Marton Police station. Ms Bollinger said that when she told Tahuri the police had been called, Tahuri replied by saying, "No, no, no, I don't want them involved". Ms Bollinger said she went with Tahuri to her house to find Cherish lying almost unconscious, struggling to breath, with blood around her mouth and a bump on her forehead.

    "Her mouth was clamped shut. It was like she had bitten her tongue," she said. The trial is continuing.

  • WHY IS AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT DELAYING OVER ISRAELI PASSPORT SCANDAL?
    Australia, April 29, (Pal Telegraph) Foreign minister Stephen Smith has received the findings about what happened with four Australian passports used in the assassination of a Hamas leader in Dubai, but it is still no enough, says Asem Judeh, human rights activist and Israeli Terrorism Monitor founder. "Mr Smith says he needs 'further advice' and 'further work' and 'further discussion," says Judeh. "Why? He has the findings. It is time for some political leadership. Who is the minister here? And what further advice/work/discussions could possibly be needed with situation so clear cut?"

    Judeh says there is a growing suspicion that the government, which is heavily influenced by the Zionist lobby, is deliberately delaying. "Notice how Mr Smith does not say what the "further work" is? It is a way of waiting, delaying, until the issue has become less sensitive. Then he can do something half hearted when the interest has faded." Judeh says the Australian inaction is in stark contrast to the British condemnation of Israel's actions. Is it that Kevin Rudd don’t want to upset pro-Israel lobby, fearing losing their support in the coming federal election? Don’t forget that Kevin Rudd kept lecturing Australians about defending Australia’s national interest. His words ring hollow."

    Judeh says the Australian is aggressive about protecting the national interest and security when it comes to Iran or the Arab world, yet goes silent whenever Israel is involved. "When it comes to Israel they turn blind eye. Did the AFP finish their investigation? If not, why has it taken them so long! If it is yes, why are Rudd and his foreign minister remaining silent? The truth is that they only care about Australia's national interest when it suits their political agenda. Remember that Mr Rudd has been described by Israeli-Australians as a Christian Zionist. What does Zionism and its threat to world peace have to do with Australia's national interest?" Press release on the behalf of Israeli Terrorism Monitor

  • DIVORCED AUSTRALIAN FATHER ANGERS JUDGE CALLING EX WIFE A GOLDDIGGER
    OZZIE FLAG AUSTRALIAN JUDGES ARE THE SAME AS THE REST OF THE WORLD'S MASONIC LEGAL MAFIA OUT TO STEAL A MAN'S ASSETS AND HOME

    A SUNSHINE Coast father of twins has been scolded in court for labelling payments to his ex-wife as "payment to gold digger" on bank statements. The man, who is described in Family Court documents as a multi-millionaire builder whose fortune was made in the aftermath of Cyclone Larry, was angry at having to make regular payments to his ex-wife because, he said, most of his money was made after the couple broke up in 2006.

    The court heard his construction business was valued at about $300,000 before Cyclone Larry whipped through Queensland in March 2006, but his company had "made something like $3 million as a consequence of work generated by Cyclone Larry". His counsel argued that he should keep a larger slice of the marital assets because it was "not simply a case of the husband being in the right place at the right time" but rather of his having special skills that enabled him to take advantage of the business opportunity presented by Cyclone Larry. The court heard the husband had tried to hide his newfound wealth from his ex-wife and had marked small payments to her as "gold digger" so that they turned up that way on her bank statements. He has agreed to stop this.

    The husband's lawyer wanted the court to place "significant weight on the dramatic increase in wealth by the husband" in his business life and "less weight on equally diligent efforts made by the wife in her role as parent of twins", who were 16 months old when the parents separated. "That submission does not find favour with me," judge Garry Watts said. The court heard that the father had shown little interest in the children after the two-year marriage ended. The mother of his twins is the daughter of a Sydney woman whose wealth was estimated in court at $16.7m, including a $10m property in NSW. The wife's mother conceded in court that she had provided her daughter and the twins with financial support all their lives, and the husband thought the court should also take that into account when dividing the marital assets. The court ordered a 75-25 split in favour of the wife, meaning he will have to pay her $3.11m. He will also be ordered to pay $600 a week for the twins, plus half their private school fees.

  • ISRAELI SPY IN NEW ZEALAND SCANDAL LINKED TO DUBAI HIT SQUAD
    zev barkan An Israeli spy at the centre of a New Zealand passport scandal has been named as a suspect in the execution of a Hamas commander, as Israel finally restored its diplomatic presence in Wellington.

    The new ambassador to New Zealand, Shemi Tzur, dismissed reports yesterday that Zev Barkan was involved in the murder of Hamas military commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai in January. The Wall Street Journal reported that Mr Barkan was among five new suspects being investigated after the assassination of Mr al-Mabhouh when a team of assassins broke into his five-star Dubai hotel room and silently killed him.

    A "Do not disturb" sign was left on the room door. Security camera footage showed the alleged killers sharing a lift with Mr al-Mabhouh before the killing. Dubai police have blamed the Israeli spy agency, Mossad, for the killing, but Israel denies the charge. In 2004, prime minister Helen Clark said there was no doubt that Mr Barkan and two others who tried to fraudulently obtain New Zealand passports were Mossad operatives. The three men were charged, but Mr Barkan eluded capture. Police still have a warrant for his arrest. The other two were jailed and later deported.

    Diplomatic relations with Israel were suspended for more than a year, before Israel finally apologised in 2005. The two countries' governments have hailed strong recent progress on their relationship. The Israeli embassy, which was closed in 2002 for financial reasons, reopened in Wellington late last month and the new ambassador, Mr Tzur, presented his credentials yesterday to Governor-General Sir Anand Satyanand. Mr Tzur, a career diplomat with experience in Middle Eastern peace talks, said the 2004 passport scandal was in the past. "I can tell you now, when I came to New Zealand we were not discussing that. My delegation and in all my meetings, we were talking about how we are building strong ties in many fields that we can co-operate." Mr Tzur said he was not in a position to comment on the Dubai killing.

    However, he had read about the case in the newspapers. "Like many others, I see every second day something come from Dubai – now it's what, I don't know, 100 people [accused] almost." Victoria University Associate Professor Jim Veitch, an expert on international relations, said the murder of Mr al-Mabhouh was a "major blunder" by Mossad. Mossad was very active all over the Western world in getting passports and tracking people from the Islamic world. "The Israelis are just so paranoid about security and protection that they will go to any lengths to make sure that they keep a gap between themselves and those that they perceive to be the enemy," Dr Veitch said.

    However, it was much better to have the Israeli embassy restored in New Zealand. "Having them here means we can have conversations with them. "It's just normal that they act in this way. We just have to accept that right now, it's part of what the situation in the world is like." Foreign Affairs Minister Murray McCully said the Israeli Government's 2005 apology over the passport scandal had been accepted and the matter was closed. Thenew embassy in Wellington was welcome.

    Internet censorship and the wild web

    IT"S a free-for-all where racism, hardcore porn and casual cruelty flourish. Has the time finally come to censor the internet? Rosemary Neill reports in tomorrow's Weekend Australian Magazine. Here is an extract. LATE last summer Denise Morcombe decided, on a whim, to visit the Facebook webpage “One million in the search for Daniel Morcombe”. Daniel is Denise’s son and for seven haunted years she has had to live with the knowledge that her child is missing.

    Daniel disappeared from a bus stop on a busy road on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, about 2km north of the exuberantly kitsch landmark The Big Pineapple, on December 7, 2003. He was 13. The adolescent with the wide grin and striking blue-green eyes had set out on a shopping trip to buy his family Christmas presents. His disappearance sparked one of the biggest manhunts in Queensland’s history, but neither Daniel nor his abductor has been found.

    It’s easy to see how Daniel’s mother took comfort from acquaintances and strangers reaching across the vast, humming expanse of cyberspace to offer support on that webpage. But on that February day earlier this year, Denise Morcombe noticed a link to another Facebook page about Daniel she hadn’t seen before. “So I clicked on it and I thought, ‘Ah, this is disgusting’.” She had opened a Facebook page called “If 1,000,000 people join, I’ll give back Daniel Morcombe”. This page, categorised as “just for fun”, mocked Daniel and his parents’ steadfast efforts to find out what happened to him. The Facebook page ridiculing Daniel was discovered in the same month that two other Queensland children’s Facebook tribute pages were vandalised.

    One of the children, Elliott Fletcher, 12, was killed in an alleged schoolyard stabbing. The other, Trinity Bates, was abducted from her home in Bundaberg and murdered. She was eight years old. Within days of their deaths, these children’s Facebook memorials were sabotaged with offensive material, including pornography. Weeks later, a Facebook memorial for drowned surf lifesaver Saxon Bird was also vandalised. Deriding the newly bereaved, and dead or missing children, represented for many Australians a new low by internet vandals, who typically hide behind the protecting veil of anonymity. These and other recent instances of serious online abuse provoke important questions that are rarely asked of the worldwide web, the biggest and fastest-growing communications network in history: Why do we permit racist abuse, hate speech, cyberbullying or content that is harmful to children to flourish online when it would be illegal or unthinkable for newspapers, book publishers or broadcasters to carry such material?

    Is it time the internet – that raucously democratic yet often lawless forum in which anyone can be a publisher or commentator – developed a conscience? Read Rosemary Neill's full examination of the debate over internet reglation in tomorrow's Weekend Australian Magazine.

  • AUSTRALIA ALREADY WARNED ISRAEL AGAINST FAKING PASSPORTS

    Australian authorities had already warned Israeli intelligence against using doctored passports in its clandestine activities around the world, the newspaper The Australian reported on Thursday.

    The Australian report came as Canberra warned Israel earlier Thursday that if it was involved in the alleged use of three forged Australian passports in the assassination of a Hamas leader in Dubai, it would not be considered the act of a friend. The Canberra government called in Israel's ambassador after three people holding Australian passports were listed on Wednesday among 15 new suspects in the assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. Dubai authorities are investigating the use of at least 26 possibly fake passports in connection with the killing. According to sources quoted in the article, Australian authorities approached Israel in the 1990s to seek assurances that Australian passports would not be used in Mossad activities after it was feared Israeli agents had doctored New Zealand passports. During that meeting, the article claims, the Israelis said they condoned such identity theft, with Australian participants describing their response as "enraged self-righteousness." The Australian foreign minister at the time, Alexander Downer, confirmed to The Australian that the then Canberra government warned Israel in at least one occasion not to issue fake Australian passports to its intelligence operatives.

    "I'm not 100 per cent sure that I didn't myself raise it with the Israelis," Mr Downer told The Australian. Downer added that the warning was issued in the context of a series of botched operations involving Mossad agents travelling on fake passports. "My recollection is that over time we have raised this issue with the Israelis," he said. "We have raised the issue of Israeli intelligence officers using foreign passports and that they should not consider using Australian passports." Dubai police have said they were almost certain that members of Israel's Mossad spy agency killed Mabhouh in his hotel room in January. The emirate Wednesday identified 15 new suspects in the assassination; Haaretz has learned that 10 of them share the names of Israelis who hold dual citizenship.

    A list of 11 people suspected in the assassination released last week by Dubai also included the names of six British-born Israelis, whose names appeared on forged British passports thought to have been used by the killers. Australia's Foreign Minister Stephen Smith said investigations were still under way, but the three Australians were also apparently innocent victims of identity theft. "I made it crystal clear to the ambassador that if the results of that investigation cause us to come to the conclusion that the abuse of Australian passports was in any way sponsored or condoned by Israeli officials, then Australia would not regard that as an act of a friend," Smith said. In an interview with Australian radio, Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd also emphasized the severity of the situation. "We will not be silent on this matter. It is a matter of deep concern. It really goes to the integrity and fabric of the use of state documents, which passports are, for other purposes," Rudd told Australian radio.

    "Any state that has been complicit in use or abuse of the Australian passport system, let alone for the conduct of an assassination, is treating Australia with contempt and there will therefore be action by the Australian government in response," said Rudd. The three using Australian passports have been identified as Daniel Bruce, Nicole Sandra McCabe and Adam Korman. The other new suspects also include Daniel Marc Schnur, Gabriella Barney, Roy Allan Cannon, Stephen Keith Drake, Mark Sklur and Philip Carr, traveling on British passports; Ivy Brinton, Anna Shauna Clasby and Chester Halvey, on Irish passports; and David Bernard LaPierre, Melenie Heard and Eric Rassineux, on French passports. The suspected killers' use of passports from countries including Britain and France has drawn criticism from the European Union that diplomats said was aimed at Israel. Some of the countries involved have summoned the Israeli ambassadors. "Friendly nations who have been assisting in this investigation have indicated to the police in Dubai that the passports were issued in an illegal and fraudulent manner," the Dubai government said. The French AFP news agency quoted French officials on Thursday saying that the suspected killers of Hamas strongman Mahmud al-Mabhuh last month in Dubai used forged French passports, effectively stealing the identity of French citizens. Foreign Ministry spokesman Bernard Valero told reporters that the documents were "clearly forged," allowing the "impersonation of French citizens."

    The three passports referred to were among the fifteen new ones announced Wednesday by Dubai police, who have claimed they were nearly certain that members of Israel's Mossad spy agency killed Mabhouh in his hotel room in January. "Three passports mentioned in this announcement by the Emirates appear to be clearly forged and there was impersonation of French citizens," Valero told AFP. Besides the three French passports, Dubai police claimed to have found six British passports, as well as the three French allegedly forged, three Irish and three from Australia.

    Also on Thursday, Irish Foreign Minister Michael Martin during a visit to the Gaza Strip said that no Irish citizens were among the assassins of the Hamas commander. Martin, paying his first ever visit to the blockaded enclave of the Gaza Strip, told a news conference at UNRWA headquarters in Gaza City "the assassins of al-Mabhouh were not Irish." "They are people who forged passports that belong to Irish citizens," Martin told reporters about the assassins. He said the investigation would "continue in this serious issue until the truth is revealed."

    "I don't think that there is one single Irish citizen is involved in the case," said Martin, who crossed into the Gaza Strip earlier on Thursday through Rafah crossing on the borders between the enclave and Egypt. Israel has not denied or confirmed it played any role but Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said there was nothing to link it to the killing. The United States, Israel's main ally, has kept silent about the affair.

  • FULL SCREEN VERSION HERE

  • A Sydney bus driver pulverised a disability pensioner, punching and kicking him more than 30 times after a fight about a bus route, a magistrate has found.

    In sentencing Surya Narayan on Tuesday to at least six months in prison, Magistrate Jacqueline Milledge described the attack as the worst assault she had ever encountered. Narayan, 45, from Macquarie Fields, faces a maximum of nine months More.. in jail after the magistrate found him guilty of assaulting the passenger on the bus on July 16, 2009. The court was told the pair had a dispute about the route through eastern Sydney when the bus terminated on Military Road in Dover Heights.

    Anthony Luders, 47, admitted to arguing with Narayan and hitting the plastic driver shield, but Narayan told the court he thought Mr Luders was about to attack him. "He walked up to me and abused me ... he has thrown a punch towards me," Narayan told Waverley Local Court on Tuesday. "I was certain that he was going to hit me with a bottle next."

    In-bus CCTV footage played to the court showed Narayan reacting to Mr Luders' approach by standing up and repeatedly punching him. "He hopped out of his compartment and started throwing punches at me," Mr Luders told the court. The footage shows Narayan continuing to beat Mr Luders even when the victim is on the floor in what Ms Milledge described as "senseless" and "relentless" bashing in which the driver "pulverises" the victim.

    Mr Luders, who suffered two nose fractures along with cuts and bruises, was held down on the ground by Narayan until police arrived. Narayan claims that during the fight Mr Luders hit him in the head with a bottle, but the prosecution said that was long after Narayan started punching him. During the fight, Mr Luders fell from the bus and as he tried to get up the CCTV footage appeared to show Narayan kicking him in the face.

    "It was a very brutal and persistent assault," Ms Milledge said. "It was totally disproportionate to the argument that they were having. "This is the worst assault I've ever seen."

    Narayan said he was "really frightened" and that Mr Luders, who had previously consumed four long-neck beers, was verbally abusive towards him. Narayan's lawyer, Sohan Singh, described his clients' conduct as "necessary" and that in his 21 years as a bus driver he had never lashed out at a passenger before. "(Should the bus drivers just) have to wait to see what happens in a situation like that?" Mr Singh said. Narayan, who suffered a dislocated shoulder when he fell out of the bus with Mr Luders during the scuffle, told the court he had been assaulted by a passenger on a previous occasion

    AUSTRALIAN MOTHER GASSED KIDS TO HURT EX-HUSBAND

    ozzieflag A woman gassed her children to death in the family car so her ex-husband could not have custody of them on Christmas Day, a court has been told.

    The Queensland Supreme Court heard the mother, who cannot be identified, started planning the children's deaths in October 2002 after being issued a Family Court order stating they would spend Christmas Day with their dad. One month later, on November 22, the bodies of her eight-year-old boy and 10-year-old girl were found in the garage of their home at Sandstone Point, near Bribie Island.

    The Brisbane court was told the mother, 42, had given her children crushed up sleeping tablets before putting them in the backseat of the car, attaching a garden hose to the exhaust and switching on the ignition. The children died from carbon monoxide poisoning, the court was told. A third child, a 17-year-old boy, survived. The mother has pleaded not guilty to two counts of murder and one of attempted murder. Defence barrister Craig Chowdhury told the court there was no dispute that his client killed her two younger children and tried to kill her teenage son. "What will be the critical issue in this case is what her mental state was at the time," he said.

    Prosecutor Simone Bain told the court the deaths were the culmination of a bitter custody battle over the children. She said the court would hear evidence the mother told friends she killed the children to get back at her ex-husband. "She stated that she would rather see the kids dead than let him have them," Ms Bain said. "At the end, the defendant was so angry and bitter towards her ex-husband ... that she committed the ultimate act of hate in taking the children from him." Up to 20 witnesses are expected to be called during the trial before Justice Philip McMurdo. The trial continues.

  • THE HELL TRANSPORTED BY THE BRITISH EMPIRE

    Before the ships of the British Empire (representing all the Royal Houses/Families/Flags of Europe/Ancient Egypt) arrived on Gondwanaland, there was no constitution, government, rule-of-law, democracy, commerce, banking, insurance, stock market, media, Hollywood, religions, New Age, etc, etc, but there was (and still is) Earth, Nature and MAN living sustainably.

    The British Imperialists relied on pieces of paper (books etc) to SELL (pitch) their constitution, government, rule-of-law, democracy, commerce, Christian religions, etc, but the pieces of paper were not to be found in Earth, Nature and MAN and did nothing to help MAN live sustainably. Even unto this day we can't find constitution, government, rule-of-law, democracy, Christianity, etc, in any forest, garden, mountain, valley, river, ocean or sky and yet we are continually sold the story these days that we need what ALWAYS remains invisible to provide us with freedom, truth, law, order and somehow live sustainably as well. Isn't this a bit strange? Like a parasite hitching a ride, the British Empire transported secrets, lies, illusions, delusions, fantasy, fiction, chaos, destruction, mayhem, genocide, pollution, greed, selfishness, power and control, poverty, homelessness, separation, isolation, loneliness, disconnection, despair, anxiety, uncertainty, arrogance, ignorance, fear, disease and alien plants, insects and animals. None of these things were here before then.

    Why, then, should we fight for something that blossomed out of the HELL of the British Empire?

    And why do we want to be "loyal Australians" when the British Empire's private corporation that is the "Commonwealth Of Australia" has brought nothing but more destruction to Gondwanaland and the people residing as caretakers thereupon? Being loyal to Gondwanaland seems a much worthier goal as that entails the removal of the hellish, evil systems of the British Empire and the healing of all that is life sustainable.

  • OZZIE ACTIVIST AND HUNGER STRIKER PETER SPENCER SERVED EVICTION NOTICE

    peterspencer Grazier Peter Spencer has been served an eviction notice to vacate his southern NSW property little more than a fortnight after he ended a 52-day hunger strike. "I've lost my farm," he told reporters in Canberra on Friday.

    The action is believed to have been taken by members of his family who are owed money by Mr Spencer. "The sheriff's been, they've served my notice, I'm being evicted next week," he said. "I want to stress that my sister needs to be paid, it's not her fault," Mr Spencer said.

    The grazier instead blamed state government laws that prevent him from clearing native vegetation from his property, located between Canberra and Cooma. His hunger strike has prompted farmers to plan a protest rally outside Parliament House in Canberra on Tuesday. Mr Spencer says his fight was not about money.

    "It's not important, this is a struggle for what we believe in. "I've got to get on now with what we've got to try and achieve for Australia - land rights." Mr Spencer's adult children have all returned to the United States, while his two younger children are living in Denmark with his wife.

    The federal government says it won't support Tuesday's farmers rally. But it's not because it doesn't acknowledge the property rights issue exists, says Agriculture Minister Tony Burke. Mr Burke says any government involvement in the rally, to support former hunger-striking NSW farmer Peter Spencer, would send the wrong message to farmers who may be considering self-harm.

    Mr Spencer spent 52 days on a hunger strike on a suspended platform at his property in protest at laws which stop farmers clearing native vegetation on their land. Mr Burke has told the NSW Farmers Association he won't attend the rally, although he agrees that property rights have been a significant issue for farmers for "more than a decade". Mr Burke says he is always willing to talk through the issue with farmers.

    However, Tuesday's rally has a specific problem at which the government to drew the line. The media release announcing the rally outside Parliament House and the website promoting it directly link the protest with the actions of a farmer, a few months ago, engaging in self-harm, Mr Burke says. "I've always had a very firm view that when someone engages in self-harm, you don't tell them: 'You're a hero'," Mr Burke told AAP.

    The only message that any politician should give in those circumstances was to stop, he said. If it had been someone in a city standing on a window sill demanding government policy be changed, then everyone would encourage them to stop. Mr Burke said every time he travelled around Australia, he was told too many stories of farmers being involved in very serious acts of self-harm.

    "This is a real problem in the bush and is something that under no circumstances should any politician be involved in promoting," he said. The federal government had taken steps to alleviate the problem by introducing stewardship payments through a limited pilot program relating to the box gum woodlands, he said. "That's not a solution for everything, and we don't pretend that it is. But, at least, for the first time ever, there is now a formal government acknowledgment of the good work farmers do," he said.

    Mr Burke also said the government had been looking at the issue long before Mr Spencer decided to go on his hunger strike. It was an issue for the upper house if a Senate inquiry into the matter was to go ahead, he said. But he indicated he would only meet with the NSW Farmers Association following the protest.

    Country Liberal senator Nigel Scullion defended the coalition's record in dealing with NSW farmers' property rights. Senator Scullion described as "absolute garbage" claims from Independent MP Tony Windsor that the coalition did little to preserve property rights for farmers. The previous coalition government, especially The Nationals, was very focused on sorting out the complex issue of property rights, he said.

    "There was a whole range of initiatives to ensure that people had security and secure access," Senator Scullion told AAP.

  • AUSTRALIAN POLICE COURT A QUEER PLACE

    johnoz Dear Fellow Freedom Fighters,

    The rate for the overthrow of Freedom throughout the world has suddenly taken a sharp rise.

    The relentless corporatization of Democratic Institutions, such as Parliaments and Courts, that the Banksters have been working at for decades, has reached a critical point. People are waking up to significance of erosion of their Rights for the sake of "saving the world from an environmental catastrophe" or "in the interests of economic stability" or any other claptrap the NWO thieves and liars conjure up in their sociopathological minds. Because of this awakening, these evil creatures must get into top gear and smash the growing numbers of dissenters before it is too late and the Rebellion of the People to regain their inalienable Right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness becomes unstoppable. Evil??? ..... "divers evil counsellors, judges and ministers" (Bill of Rights 1688) "endeavour to subvert and extirpate the laws and liberties of the realm"??? .... oh yes, various/several/sundry of these creatures are showing their true colours, now.

    Last Monday, in the "Central Criminal Court", another of the low-life scum conducted a typical Australian Kangaroo Court, ferociously denying me my Right to Trial by Jury, disregarding my Challenging the Jurisdiction of the Court, saying, when I declared my "Special Appearance to reject ."any Jurisdiction of the Court", that "There in no such thing." and ignoring my accusation that "Denying Trial by Jury is Treason". This character was a very dapper, mid-fifties male with rimless glasses and a large blue bowtie with yellow diamond-shaped patterns .... what sort of character wears a poofie thing like that? He was just another of these gutless, lying, sociopaths that pose as "Judges" and "Magistrates" in Australia. I often think of that legal maxim that goes, "A traitor is like an insane sailor who drills a hole in the bottom of a ship that carries us all". . I wore my T-shirt emblazoned with the phrase, "GOD AND MY RIGHT", which is part of the Royal Coat of Arms that hangs in Australian Courts. This "Magistrate" Aramati (or some such surname) was totally arrogant and repeatedly making threats to have me removed so he could carry on in my absence.

    The morning started off in the Downing Centre Local Court where a female "Magistrate" Hubner could not take my insistence on having Trial by Jury and that she had no Jurisdiction over me, whatsoever. She ordered me out of the Courtroom to bring me back in after some ninety minutes to say that she was sending me to this other court a few blocks away. Obviously, she could not find a "Magistrate" in the Court Complex who would deal with me and, I guess, the hierarchy of the Mafia said to send me to one of their hatchetmen at this other Court. When I realized which Court she was referring to, I said, "You mean the POLICE COURT?!" and turning to the people in the courtroom, I said, "That is where, above the entrance and carved in stone in large letters, it says "POLICE COURT". You only get a POLICE COURT in a POLICE STATE." ..... they looked perplexed...some smiled...I was escorted out of the courtroom.

    One of the "witnesses" was a POLICE OFFICER called "N. SCOTT" who arrested me ...without any warrant, of course... almost a year ago. If ever there was a narcissistic, unintelligent thug ... he was a prime example..... 6 foot 3... large physique exaggerated by body-building.... nonsensical large black tattoo on his right bicep.... virtually shaven head..... wearing a badge saying "NO. SCOTT. Public Order and Riot Squad". He is a perfect example of the narcissistic, unintelligent thug that the NSW POLICE FORCE have so many of ... and the females are much the same type of sub-species. Wasn't it the "Public Order and Riot Squad" that were featured in scenes in "Dr. Zhivago" and "Gandhi"? ..... well, there in Australia, now ... they're the NWO enforcers, all right..... now equipped with instruments of torture called "TASERS" (A Thomas Swift Electric Rifle).

    Most assuredly, the NWO is descending upon us ... while the media distract us with scandals about Tiger Woods and stories of the Japanese killing whales in the waters of the Antaric. Not wishing to make this email too longer ..... after the now familiar court fiasco, this "Magistrate" decided he was find me guilty and fined me $500 for causing damage worth $200 to a computer that I picked up from the desk of an obese female "Deputy Registrar" in the NSW Supreme Court when she refused to waive a filing fee for the filing of a Summons against the NSW Dental Board and the State of New South Wales because the NSW Dental Board (a Statutory Body controlled by lawyers) deprived me of my livelihood of being a dentist because I refused to be coerced into a medical liability insurance corporation contract (the usual lawyer-orchestrated scam). This obese female also said that my action was "frivolous and you won't get a trial by jury, anyway.". I calmly stood up,,,, told her "You are evil"... picked up the monitor and dropped in onto the floor .... etc.... When I get the transcript, I'll put it onto the Internet.

    NO JURIES = NO JUSTICE.

    NO JURIES ...... and the NWO bandits can do their stealing and killing and destroyed.

    I have filed for an "Appeal on all grounds", immediately .... which will follow on on that same Kangaroo Court path ... and booked a date of the 4th of March 2010.

    Yours sincerely, John Wilson.

  • LATEST ON PETER SPENCERS AUSTRALIAN FARMER PROTEST

    peterspencer Over the past decade we have seen many images of asylum seekers in detention centres campaigning via hunger strike to get into Australia.

    But one farmer in NSW is now on the 45th day of his own hunger strike - in a self-imposed prison 10 metres above the ground because he feels farmers have been sold up the river by environmental legislation. As a part of Australia's commitment to protect native vegetation and to reduce carbon emissions under the Kyoto protocol, Peter Spencer and thousands of farmers like him, have been subjected to a government imposed ban on land clearing. The saved trees are natural carbon sinks worth an estimated $10.8 billion to the government in reduced carbon emissions, should Kevin Rudd's emissions trading scheme go ahead. But the farmers, who can no longer develop this land have received no compensation.

    "They're welcome to take my land but the constitution says they have to pay," Peter said. "I just keep going, keep going, I just keep going. They've got the wrong person if they think I'll walk away." Peter's hunger strike has galvanised the farming community.

    On Monday hundreds of supporters gathered at parliament house and at Peter's property in the Southern Highlands to force the government to meet Peter's demands that farmers be justly compensated for what they describe as the insidious, deceitful theft of their land. Alistair McRobert, a farming friend and supporter of Peter Spencer, says Kevin Rudd's office is reluctant to respond to Peter's protest. "The only response from the PM's office is, he has said that the government does not take any notice of people taking massive protests, as in hunger strikes or threatening the government. They say, 'we make laws, rules and policy in the national interest, and Peter Spencer needs to come down from there and get medical attention and go to the courts to get remedy'," McRobert said. Should the government make policy on the basis of one man's stand?

    Is the government right to see Peter's stance in this light? Should the government be more sensitive to farmers demanding compensation? Says Peter: "Mr Rudd, how dare you tell me that you'll just carry on breaching the constitution when I've followed every path known, I wrote to you two years ago and said, 'don't throw that excuse up to me in 2 years time' - I knew he would pass the buck. How dare you work outside the constitution, wake up to yourself. It's just not on. I'm not here to try and threaten you, I'm trying to get this country back on track." Peter King is Peter Spencer's barrister. Before any hunger strike, the two Peters spent years fighting for compensation in the courts - to no avail.

    "It's my opinion, and I've offered that in support of Peter Spencer's case, that it is unconstitutional for this reason. That there has been an acquisition of his land and that's now been acknowledged by the lower courts, that there's been a benefit to the Commonwealth, both in terms of an interest in his land and in terms of financial outcomes. And it hasn't been paid for. Now in our country, under our constitution, the notion that we have, that is fundamental to our democracy, is that nobody loses his or her or its land unless it's been paid for," Peter King said. "What the Commonwealth did, before I came into the case, was to move to have it dismissed as being, as there being no case. I came into the case and we repeated the matter and the judge held that there was a case but then the Commonwealth moved in March of 2008, interestingly enough, shortly after the Kyoto Protocol commenced in operation in Australia, to have the whole case dismissed under a discretionary power that judges have in the Federal Court. And so that was to prevent the case from going to a hearing," Peter Spencer said. Ignoring a man on a hunger strike is politically very dangerous for Rudd, especially when, at the same time he is seen writing kids books, commentating the cricket and lunching with the cricketers. But meeting the farmers and accepting their demands carry their own set of dangers.

    "So what I'm saying is, Australia's facing penalties in excess of $100 billion to the UNFCCC," Alistair McRobert said. The UNFCCC is the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. If Kevin Rudd were to allow Peter and other farmers to re-commence land clearing now, they would likely not meet their carbon reduction targets and therefore face massive fines. As the friend of the chair in Copenhagen, Kevin Rudd would also have a little egg on his international face. Best selling author, anthropologist and environmental activist Diane Bell is sympathetic to the farmers' quest for compensation for their lost land - but strongly disagrees with any push to allow further clearing.

    "I think with carbon emissions there's going to be benefits and burdens and how we distribute those is the role of government to come up with policies that are transparent and open and equitable and of course there are going to be some winners and losers." "At some point in Australia, we have to say, our practices have been unsustainable. The land is salting up, we have tried to force agricultural practices in some areas which are just unsustainable. And that's going to be a very brave government that bites the bullet and makes those decisions," Diane adds. The Labor Government aren't the only ones feeling heat over the hunger strike.

    To some farmers, Bill Heffernan represents the former Howard government and it's role in implementing the legislation which they say has locked them from their land. The farmers are furious because the energy sector has been massively compensated during a time that their carbon emissions have risen, and at the same time agricultural emissions have reduced, but farmers say they haven't received a cent and they believe this is the thin edge of the wedge.

    Peter has lost 40 kilograms and the indignities of a hunger strike are many. He must urinate out a tube and deal with severe constipation. "It's a hard job to keep clean, and I stink, I want a good wash, I want a good s**t and I want a good feed," Peter said.

  • ANGER OVER BROADENED AUSTRALIAN COP POWERS TO SEARCH PEOPLE

    victoria cops A GEELONG lawyer has slammed new laws that allow police to search people in designated public areas as an "outrageous breach of human rights". The laws, which came into effect on Wednesday, give police sweeping powers to search people at random, including strip searches. James Farrell, who works for pro-bono legal organisation PILCH, said evidence showed such laws did nothing to prevent crime. "Rather than pretending to be tough on crime by introducing ineffective measures, government should base policies on sound evidence that will improve community safety and outcomes for individuals," he said.

    Under the legislation:

    POLICE can search anybody in a "designated area" even if officers do not have any reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing and can proceed to a strip search if the circumstances warrant it. ANY area where there has been an incident of violence involving a weapon in the past year can be deemed a designated area; as can any place where police suspect there may be trouble; or any major event precinct. A NEW offence of disorderly conduct has been created, with $234 on-the-spot fines.

    Mr Farrell said the legislation included provisions to strip search minors in "mystery" designated areas. "There was a bit of a misconception around that these places were going to be advertised and seven days notice given, but there is provision in the legislation that they do not have to be advertised," he said. "So you can be walking down the street in front of your house and be asked to undergo a search." Police and Emergency Services Minister Bob Cameron said laws enabling searches for weapons had been strengthened to help protect police.

    "All these new laws provide the police with pre-emptive tools designed to diffuse situations and deter unacceptable behaviour so Victorians can safely enjoy public places in peace," he said. "These critical new reforms will boost Victoria Police's ability to deal with drunkenness, disorder in public places and violence." Mr Farrell said the legislation included hefty new fines for the "vague" new offence of disorderly conduct and for existing offences of drunk and disorderly and drunk.

    "We can now be slogged $234 for walking home from the pub," he said. "The new offence of disorderly conduct is not defined and relies upon the subjective and arbitrary judgment of individual police officers."

  • OZZIE'S PETER SPENCER CONTINUES HIS HUNGER PROTEST FOR FARMERS RIGHTS

    peter spencer SOS-NEWS writer, farmer, and scientist Noel Franklin, was part of the 100 + supporters of Peter Spencer’s now the 26th days into his hunger strike, attending at the “Tower Of Hope” wind mast he is harnessed to 50 feet above ground on his farm “Saarahnlee” 31 klm from Cooma NSW.

    Noeline filed this report today, Saturday 19th December 2009, pictures of Barnaby Joyce and supports taken by Noni Seagrim of SOS-NEWS. From the City, NSW, ACT, and Queensland, supporters were joined by Nationals MP and Shadow Finance Minister Barnaby Joyce, Labor Government MP Dr Mike Kelly, and NSW Nationals MP Kevin Humphries, A small media presence assembled, The Australian newspaper, WIN TV, Cooma Express, but several committed tabloids and television networks cancelled late, this could be leveled at instructions from their political masters due to the dark shadow of Copenhagen exposing the Rudd Government manufactured statistics for ETS.

    Dully noted by all in attendance, a total absence of the Australian people’s own taxpayer funded ABC radio and television, also canceling at the last minute, coincident you say. ABC management is unaccountability to the people and subservient to their chosen political masters. They will conduct some desktop publishing by telephone interviews we will see during the week Peter emphasised many times - it was not about Peter Spencer, he already had been offered, and refused, money from the NSW government for his silence, it is about all farmers and property rights. He further stated, “we the people lost representation when jury’s were taken away in the early 1980’s”.

    Barnaby Joyce quoted “It was unjust that they, the government, acquire assets off people” - carefully avoiding the word THEFT at all times. Mr Joyce was placed in a harness, ascended the mast some 50 feet to speak with Peter on the platform for around 15 minutes. Mike Kelly stated, “the states could repeal all laws tomorrow, where they (government) are not required to compensate land owners for acquiring private property”.

    Mr Kelly further stated, “the Commonwealth had instigated carbon offsets with the states, but now it was out of their hands”. Noeline informed Mr Kelly, “It is not out of your hands because the Commonwealth instigated it”. Kevin Humphries stated, “the prime goal was to get Peter down from the tower, not to danger his health”.

    Noeline’s assessment of Peter Spencer from observation is that his mind is working well, he’s is very alert but when standing is unsure on his feet. What will get Peter down from “The Tower Of Hope” is an undertaking by government to conduct a Royal Commission under terms of reference he has submitted to PM Kevin Rudd. He further demands justice to 30,000 farmers who have lost an estimated $10.2 BILLION of carbon with interest taken by government. Noeline stated, “it seemed obvious the attending politicians really did not fully grasp Peter Spencer’s protest for farmers was about. They had basic knowledge skirting direct question from people which seemed to confuse them”.

    All present on the day want Peter down from the tower, take the government to the high court with a jury, terminate their stonewalling and get a decision for the snow ball of national & international support is gathering daily to a point where Kevin Rudd may have to admit that he IS NOW AWARE of Peter Spencer to survive. Barnaby Joyce departing remarks were to get justice and compensation to farmers for any compulsory acquisitions made by government. An admission of carbon and land theft by government was confirmed from the mouth of MP Mike Kelly to Friday’s supporters, their plan was published in “National Emission Trading Crediting The Carbon” in 1999 and confirmation of land theft from the lips of past NSW Labor Premier Bob Carr on ABC radio we have recorded at this link -
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OBiBOdle-4 that explains it all.

    This message is from Peter Spencer to the people of Australia

    What does Peter Spencer want?

    1. A Royal Commission

    2. Payment to farmers by the Commonwealth

    3. Return of Juries by the States

    Agenda 21 was the movement that took away your rights

    CARBON GATE is the people claiming back THEIR RIGHTS.

    THE TOWER OF HOPE IS THE PATH

    All those who have owned land with vegetation from 1990 until now are included in the claim, if you own or you have sold – or had your land repossessed, the claim includes all damages and legal and accumulative interest since then. All of you across Australia form Carbon Gate Groups in your area and come together in your club your pub or your home. Have a nominated person to read and understand the total submission to the Prime Minister, and all discuss it and explain it to each other end to end

    Then go to your Member and DEMAND your Constitutional Rights in total support of all the claim demands. As AUSTRALIANS those rights belong to you to our Nation.

    It will restore the rule of law and truth.

    All those not affected by this legislation support the minority that are, by so doing you will protect your own Property Rights and ensure that this constituted breach will never occur to soil our Nation’s Governance again. I would like to thank you for your support, and cannot wait to have a great steak.

    Thank you

    Peter Spencer

    AUSTRALIA INTRODUCES WEB FILTERS

    net censor Australia intends to introduce filters which will ban access to websites containing criminal content.

    The banned sites will be selected by an independent classification body guided by complaints from the public, said Communications Minister Stephen Conroy. A seven month trial in conjunction with ISPs found the technology behind the filter to be 100% effective. However, that claim has been questioned and there has been opposition from some internet users.

    Twitter users have been voicing their disapproval by adding the search tag "nocleanfeed" to their comments about the plans. "Successful technology isn't necessarily successful policy," said Colin Jacobs, a spokesperson for Electronic Frontiers Australia, a non-profit organisation that campaigns for online freedom. "We're yet to hear a sensible explanation of what this policy is for, who it will help, and why it is worth spending so much taxpayers' money on."

    Mr Conroy said the filters included optional extras such as a ban on gambling sites which ISPs could choose to implement in exchange for a grant. "Through a combination of additional resources for education and awareness, mandatory internet filtering of RC (refused classification)-rated content, and optional ISP-level filtering, we have a package that balances safety for families and the benefits of the digital revolution," he said. The filter laws will be introduced in parliament in August 2010 and will take a year to implement.

    'noble aims'

    "Historical attempts to put filters in place have been effective up to a point," Dr Windsor Holden, principal analyst at Juniper Research, told BBC News. The "noble aims" of the filter could be lost in its implementation, he warned.

    "Clearly there is a need to protect younger and more vulnerable users of the net, but one concern is that it won't just be illegal websites that will be blocked," he added. "You have to take extreme caution in how these things are rolled out and the uses to which they're put."

  • OZZIE FARMER ON HUNGER STRIKE OVER LAND GRAB AND PROPERTY RIGHTS

    peterspencer SYDNEY broadcaster Alan Jones has pleaded with defiant Monaro district grazier, Peter Spencer, that he end his hunger strike, while bringing national attention to the cause.

    Mr Spencer was in the 16th day of a hunger strike over government failure to compensate him and other farmers for the cost of land clearing restrictions when he spoke to Mr Jones via mobile phone. Mr Spencer, “Saarahnlee”, Shannons Flat, has already fought unsuccessful court battles to win billions of dollars in “just terms” compensation for the 87.5 million tonnes of carbon emissions he says were saved through land clearing restrictions. He said he had been unable to use a large section of his property effectively because of government land clearing restrictions. He began the hunger strike at his farmhouse on November 23 and last week chained himself to a 90 metre wind monitoring mast on his property, where he is drinking, but not eating. He has vowed not to end the hunger strike until the Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, meets the terms of his submission demanding compensation for himself and all other farmers affected by land clearing restrictions. The lawyer representing Mr Spencer, Peter King, said he had urged Mr Spencer to come down from the tower “for the sake of his health, friends and family.”

    It is not clear at what point or if his supporters will intervene if he is close to death. Cobar district grazier, Alastair McRobert, who is watching over Mr Spencer at “Saarahnlee” said if Mr Rudd did not meet Mr Spencer’s demands there would be “blood on the wattle”. Former federal treasurer, Peter Costello, conceded in 2007 that Australia had put a stop to large scale land clearing so it could meet its Kyoto Protocol carbon emission targets.

    While Mr Spencer may have a moral case, he had been unable to establish a legal case despite many attempts in court. He said he had made about 200 court appearances in his bid to achieve the goal of compensation but governments usually get his case struck out before it is heard.

  • OZZIE ACTIVIST JOHN WILSON'S LATEST BATTLES WITH TRAITOR JUDGES

    johnoz Yesterday, in the Parramatta Local Court, "Magistrate" Marsden demonstrated what absolute hypocrisy is. After he adjourned my matter to the 8th of March 2010 for him to judge me for causing a 2 cm hole in a polystyrene ceiling tile at the Carlingford office of L.J. Hooker Real Estate when I went there to warn them to stay away from my property where they had erected a "For Sale" sign ...it was their "For Sale" sign that I threw over a partition at their office that made to hole in the ceiling tile ....

    Also, "Magistrate" Marsden had previously judged in his own cause to dismiss my Challenge to the Jurisdiction of the Court .....anyway, because he and his band of Traitors (ie: all the "Judges" and "Magistrates" in Australia) disregard our inalienable Right to Trial by Jury, they are all determined to destroy Truth, Justice, Freedom and Democracy ....and what did he do yesterday?.....he announced to the people in the court "It is 11 o'clock and there will be one minute of silence." .....yep, Armistice Day, when we remember our gallant soldiers who fought and died in the First World War "to keep the Flame of Liberty burning" .... and here's our "evil counsellors, judges and ministers subverting and extirpating our laws and liberties" (Bill of Rights 1688) !!!!!

    HYPOCRITES!!!! .... unbelievable HYPOCRITES!!!!!

    Below is another email sent to me confirming that the Privy Council (the Queen-in-Council) make no orders to appoint the Governor-General of Australia ... thereby rendering all the "appointments" of Judges and Magistrates in Australia equally and consequently fraudulent. In fact, yesterday, I told "Magistrate" Marsden that I had filed an Affidavit in the Parramatta Registry on 4 November 2009 with an annexure of a copy of an email from the Privy Council denying their appointing the Governor-General of Australia ....to which he said, "I am not interested, Mr Wilson.'...and when I said that he ought to be because it was proof that he was not a legitimate Magistrate but a fraud, he again said, "I am not interested.".

    These Traitor Judges know that it will only take one competent Jury to bring their whole Evil Empire crashing down ....and that is why they have been denying me Trial by Jury for 13 plus years and persecute me in every way they can. They continue to pervert the Course of Justice ... and one wonders when the break-through will occur .. the Conspiracy between the Banks and the Judges is so powerfully entrenched throughout the world, it will take a true Miracle ... and we can only pray for that Miracle.
