“I visited the shrine at Hiroshima. I know the history of Maralinga. And I’ve witnessed the struggle at Jabiluka. I have long been opposed to uranium mining, and I remain opposed to it. I am unapologetic about this. In fact, I am proud of it.” ~ Peter Garrett, debate on uranium, 2007 ALP National Conference, July 31–August 2.

Beverley uranium mine protesters ‘herded like cattle’
Sean Fewster, Ken McGregor
The Advertiser
October 8, 2009

POLICE herded protesters into metal crates “like cattle” during a uranium mine protest, a court has heard.

Ten people, including a television cameraman, today asked the Supreme Court to award them $630,000 compensation over the violent clash near the Beverley uranium mine site at Andamooka in May 2000.

Brian Walters, for the plaintiffs, said his clients deserved “a significantly high award of damages” from the “remorseless, unapologetic” Rann Government.

“This case is a nasty example of police violence that was premeditated, consistent and paid no heed to legal requirements,” he said.

“Police used capsicum spray like it was fly spray and used their vehicles like weapons.

“They placed protesters, as if they were cattle, into shipping containers in the middle of the desert and conducted welding while they were inside.”

The plaintiffs, most of whom live interstate, are claiming damages for pain, injury and loss.

In September, Deputy Premier Kevin Foley refused to negotiate an out-of-court settlement.

“The Government will not negotiate a wholsesale settlement with a bunch of feral protesters who put the safety of our police officers in peril,” he said at the time.

“The Government sends a clear message to any anarchist group of protesters that we will not be a soft touch.”

Yesterday, Mr Walters said those comments had further inflamed the case.

“They show a complete absence of remorse by the State, and there has never been an apology,” he said.

“It’s not just a lack of remorse – it’s further injury to my clients by further insult to them.”

The trial, before Justice Tim Anderson, is expected to last eight weeks.

Outside court, a group of allied anti-nuclear protesters gathered in a show of solidarity.

“Mr Foley’s decision not to negotiate was pig-headed, given the way police behaved,” spokeswoman Nectaria Calan said.

“We are concerned about the level of police oppression, it was ridiculous… they had a right to protest.”

Beverley uranium mine is owned by Heathgate Resources Pty, Ltd.; an ‘affiliate’ of General Atomics (GA). Heathgate and GA allegedly hired a former spook, Mehmet Ersoy/Osman, to spy on groups and individuals opposed to the mine. “US company General Atomics and its Australian subsidiary, Heathgate Resources, declined to answer questions about Mehmet, who also provided personal protection to visiting General Atomics executives. A Heathgate spokeswoman said the company was privately owned and had a policy of not responding to media questions” (Mehmet Ersoy/Osman : Former officer hired to spy, October 17, 2008).

Hey Hey It’s Saturday (c. October 7, 1979)

Blah blah blah.

I dunno.

I used to think that Very Important Persons had branes, or could at least afford to employ others armed with the gooey stuff. Sadly, my illusions — carefully nurtured since childhood — have been shattered of late, first by law-talking guys from the strange world of ‘public relations’, now by a TV show.

From the Department of Where’s Kamahl?

Hey Hey It’s Saturday was the No.1 program across all demographics of the night” on Wednesday October 9 according to Channel Nine. The champagne comedy was flowing all night and right across all demographics, with the highlight being when Sydney plastic surgeon Dr Anand Deva and five of his mates:

…respected medical specialists, performed the same Jacksons tribute they did 20 years ago as Sydney University medical students. “It is like riding a bike, you just get back on,” 43-year-old plastic surgeon Anand Deva, who plays Michael Jackson in the act, said. The group said they had not changed the routine in 20 years, performing it at birthday parties and weddings to keep their choreography polished.

Sadly, as noted by the brains trust at Stormfront, a goddamn Jew named Harry Connick Jnr. failed to see the funny side of the skit, remarking that ‘‘If they turned up like that in the United States, it’d be like Hey Hey There’s No More Show’’. Which is probably correct — and an indication that Harry has come a very long way from home… in Jew York… in the Jewnited States.

*boom-tish*

Happily, unhampered by the cultural and racial sensitivities burdening poor old Harry, millions of Australians are able to see the funny side, and given that neither the host, nor the producers who approved the act, anyone in the studio, or on the judging panel, objected to it, the lesson, I think, is fairly obvious:

Don’t invite humourless world-renowned Jewish-American jazz musicians on to Australian TV shows.

Besides, the middle class are never racist. “It certainly was not meant to be racist in any way at all,” Dr Deva said (Criticism over black make-up act, BBC, October 8, 2009).

Bonus!

The Black and White Minstrel Show was a British television series, produced by the BBC, that screened from 1958 to 1978; it was also screened in Australia. George Mitchell (February 27, 1917–August 27, 2002) devised and conducted the Show.

Everyone agreed it was very funny to see white folks in black-face, but then PC Nazis — who are really no better than the Nazis themselves according to local experts — orchestrated a campaign to cruelly suppress freedom of speech, and the Show was terminated.

Last month, a Curtin University student got into heap ’em big trouble for his production of a website based on the virtual adventures of “Nigel the Crazy Noonga”.

Well, maybe.

Word on the street is that the poor bastard in question got his house raided by the police; further, that rather than being self-consciously ‘racist’, the teen in question was, in his view, engaged in mere comedy.

That’s entertainment.

Still, while YouTube removes videos which allegedly violate corporate copyright quicker than a bride’s nightie on her wedding night, the Crazynoonga channel is considered kosher, as is the following:

Of course, a teenage student from Perth is one thing; the Nine Network — which screens Hey Hey It’s Saturday — is another matter entirely. The Network is owned by PBL Media; PBL Media is owned by CVC Capital Partners. CVC owns 52 companies worldwide, with combined annual sales of €88.0 billion (AUS$144 billion) and employs over 400,000 people. Meaning not only that the company is likely to employ an army of law-talking guys, but has the resources to supply them with an almost unlimited amount of ammunition.

Added Bonus!

Still, we can hardly complain if foreign commentators from London’s Guardian to New York’s Newsweek now take this nothing as one more sign of our racism, given we’ve so long insisted we do indeed have such evil in our heart.

Our Prime Minister, for instance, has falsely accused his own country of being so racist that we stole thousands of Aboriginal children — not even 10 of whom he could actually name — just because they were black.

Taxpayers’ dollars were handed out to film director Baz Luhrmann to make Australia, and to Phillip Noyce to make Rabbit Proof Fence, so they could tell this same lie to the tut-tutting world.

In promoting Australia on US television, star Hugh Jackman even likened his land to Nazi Germany, so no wonder our critics assume Hey Hey was as racist as it wasn’t.

We worded the world up too well on our wicked ways, and through just the same kind of know-nothingness that has Somers’ face not black but red.

Name ten. Go on, just name ten.

Report: (Eighth) Sydney Forum Was Another Success!

…This year, there was a novelty on the first day. While we were expecting a demonstration on the second day, we had a ‘surprise’ in that it came on the first, outside the Petersham RSL Club. The ‘Antifa’ (read: “anti-fascists”) had located our venue from an easy ruse (one had paid for a ticket) and arrived before start-time with about 17 protesters and a couple of banners (something about smashing “Nazis”). They made a lot of noise before being moved on by police.

One significant ‘plus’ out of this nuisance was that a key libeller and inciter of violence against patriotic people, Andy Moran, a Melbourne-based leftist, was identified and photographed for the first time. Another ‘plus’ was that the protest blooded a few people who had not seen our politics challenged in this way.

The Latest From The Dirty Tricks Department
Jim Saleam

I received the ‘clever’ letter below in my capacity as organizer for the Sydney Forum. I have edited out a person’s name and the group he belongs to. I have left the interesting spelling mistakes etc.

Notice the defamation of hard working people and their group. Notice the ploy to get me to say: “yeah, I agree, how about the dollars?”

This was not the only dirty trick associated with the Forum. A few speakers received calls from a supposed journalist asking questions, but criticising likely attendees and the organizers.

All this is divide and conquer. It appeals to a great human weakness: the desire to get ahead by not being linked to ‘dirty’ people. This technique will be refined in the time ahead and used continually.

For what it’s worth, the letter below is virtually right out of the 1960s / 1970s US FBI manual on “Cointelpro” (Counter Intelligence Program), something ultimately condemned in the US Senate as an attack on civil liberties.

    Hello,

    I’d like to donate some money to the running of the forum but I’m unsure how to go about it. I’ve been active in Victoria with Group XXX however it seems that Mr. YYY is slightly unreliable and I’m unwilling to trust that young man at this point in time with any more dealings.

    I’d like to support the forum but I also value my anonymity. Can youprovide [sic] me details of how [I] can provide the forum organising committeewith [sic] my donation of $2000.00 and make a commitment that my details will not be disclosed.

    In terms of probity; [I]’d also like some assurances that my money will be going to cost[s] associated with the fourm and not into someone’spocket [sic]. The organisation of things here in Victoria seems to be run bya [sic] bunch of clowns. As a professional person it’s disheartening tohave [sic] to deal with a bunch of prepubescent drama clowns who are yet to finish high-school.

    Regards,

    James D

The name used on the email address was James Dogart (editor).

NB. COINTELPRO was not an FBI manual but a COunter INTELligence PROgram conducted by the FBI during the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s against political dissidents. Thus:

COINTELPRO is an acronym for a series of FBI counterintelligence programs designed to neutralize political dissidents. Although covert operations have been employed throughout FBI history, the formal COINTELPROs of 1956-1971 were broadly targeted against radical political organizations. In the early 1950s, the Communist Party was illegal in the United States. The Senate and House of Representatives each set up investigating committees to prosecute communists and publicly expose them. (The House Committee on Un-American Activities and the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, led by Senator Joseph McCarthy). When a series of Supreme Court rulings in 1956 and 1957 challenged these committees and questioned the constitutionality of Smith Act prosecutions and Subversive Activities Control Board hearings, the FBI’s response was COINTELPRO, a program designed to “neutralize” those who could no longer be prosecuted. Over the years, similar programs were created to neutralize civil rights, anti-war, and many other groups, many of which were said to be “communist front organizations.”

As J. Edgar Hoover, longtime Director of the FBI, put it:

“The forces which are most anxious to weaken our internal security are not always easy to identify. Communists have been trained in deceit and secretly work toward the day when they hope to replace our American way of life with a Communist dictatorship. They utilize cleverly camouflaged movements, such as peace groups and civil rights groups to achieve their sinister purposes. While they as individuals are difficult to identify, the Communist party line is clear. Its first concern is the advancement of Soviet Russia and the godless Communist cause. It is important to learn to know the enemies of the American way of life.”

The FBI conducted more than 2000 COINTELPRO operations before the programs were officially discontinued in April of 1971, after public exposure, in order to “afford additional security to [their] sensitive techniques and operations”.

What We Feel – one of the few bands which exists on the territory of the former USSR, which does not copy popular western groups, but plays tough, acute social, daring music. Guys never wrote vague, non-committal texts. They always expressed their opinion about the things that happen in the city and country they live in the most clear way… Every song on this album – a nail in the coffin of all those, who thinks that hardcore became insipid and lost its fury, that it became regular entertainment for rich boys and nazi tolerant people, and that it can no longer be the instrument of direct action.”

The Decline & Fall of the Inland Empire Skinheads

In April of this year, eight boneheads, members of the “Inland Empire Skinheads”, got arrest on Unkle Adolf’s birthday (April 20). The Inland Empire Boneheads are named after an area of California: “Made up of an area stretching from western Riverside County to the southwest corner of San Bernardino County, the Inland Empire used to be a sparsely populated, rural area of ranches, vineyards and farms, where whites were the clear and dominant majority. All that has changed…” (California Conflict, David Holthouse, Intelligence Report, Fall 2005). As for their arrests:

Racist Skinheads: California Skinheads Busted on Hitler’s Birthday
Intelligence Report
No.135, Fall 2009

Seven members of the Inland Empire Skinheads were arrested in a daylong sweep in southern California April 20, including two female gang members who were arrested in hospitals where they had induced labor to ensure their babies would be born on Adolf Hitler’s 120th birthday.

San Bernardino County Sheriff Rod Hoops said the arrests were the result of a nine-month investigation that was launched following an attempted murder in Hesperia, Calif., last year. Hoops said the gang has between 30 and 50 members residing in the Inland Empire, a region of southeastern California, and is closely affiliated with the Western Hammerskins, a regional division of the widespread skinhead gang Hammerskin Nation.

Hoops said his department had been tracking the Inland Empire Skinheads since 2002. In those seven years, members of the gang have been involved in murders, attempted murders, murder conspiracies, home invasion robberies, hate crime assaults, and narcotics trafficking, according to the sheriff…

In June 2009, the first of the eight boneheads — Mark Goslyn, 33; Raymond Williams, 33, who is on the National Terrorist Watch List, Jeremy Brower, 32; Carrie Goodwin, 24; brothers Thomas Mason, 23, and Joseph Mason, 20; Joshua Butler, 27; and Ronald Proffitt, 27 — were convicted and sentenced. Gosyln pleaded guilty in Victorville Superior Court to conspiracy to commit robbery, and was immediately sentenced to 25 years to life in prison (under California’s Three Strikes law). Prior to this:

In May, Butler and Goodwin both pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit residential robbery and gang activity. Butler was sentenced to nine years in prison; Goodwin has not yet been sentenced. Joseph Mason pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit assault and gang activity and was sentenced to 8 years and 8 months in prison… Williams, a tattoo artist from Perris, was arrested at a hospital where his wife was giving birth. According to the County Sheriff’s Office, Williams’ wife and Carrie Goodwin were inducing labor so their children could be born on April 20, the 120th birthday of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

~ California Racist Skinhead Given Lengthy Sentence, ADL, June 25, 2009

Which leaves Jeremy Brower, Thomas Mason, Ronald Proffitt and Raymond Williams. Well, actually… Raymond Williams — a tattooist — has apparently committed suicide. At the time of his death, Williams was still facing charges “of conspiracy to commit a crime and carrying a loaded firearm”.

Alleged Skinhead Found Hanging in Jail Cell
G.T. Houts
RIMOFTHEWORLD.net
September 29, 2009

San Bernardino, CA – San Bernardino County Sheriff’s officials have identified the inmate found hanging in his jail cell as Raymond Michael Williams, 35.

Williams, described by authorities as the leader of the Inland Empire Skinheads, reportedly hung himself while incarcerated at the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.

The former tattoo artist from Perris, in Riverside County, was arrested in April along with six other members of the Inland Empire Skinheads, and faced charges of conspiracy to commit a crime and carrying a loaded firearm, according to court documents obtained by RIMOFTHEWORLD.net.

A confidential source, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case, explained that the Inland Empire Skinheads utilized Internet sites like MySpace to recruit members from area high schools, possibly including the mountain communities…

Following the arrest of Williams and the other alleged gang members in April, Sheriff Rod Hoops reported the gang was first noticed in 2002 by area law enforcement agencies.

Hoops, who declined at that time to release specifics about the arrests because the investigation was ongoing, noted that the reported hate gang had more than 30 identified members but fewer than 100.

The Sheriff explained members of the group were from throughout the Inland Empire. Those arrested were from both Riverside and San Bernardino County.

Hoops and lead investigator Deputy Eric Ogaz, told media representatives at a special press conference that the group had been tied to the Hammerskins, a national white supremacist organization.

The two officers reported members of the gang had been involved in a number of murders, attempted murders, murder conspiracies, assaults, witness intimidation, drug trafficking and home invasion robberies. They did not elaborate during the press briefing…

Melbourne Anarchist Resource Centre (MARC) attacked by neo-Nazis

Recently, the Melbourne Anarchist Resource Centre (MARC) in Northcote was attacked by neo-Nazis. Based on what those responsible for the attack stated, it is understood to have been in response to an alleged, recent anti-fascist action which took place in Burwood, on or about Monday, September 14, 2009.

More statements may follow from the groups who use the space, but for the moment one of those present has written the following, brief description of what happened:

At 3pm Monday the 28th of September, several of us were sitting in the Barricade bookshop when four men entered through the front door. One of them, who was carrying a can of mace [pepper spray], yelled for us to sit down and that they had a message to deliver (he also asked who was in charge!). They proceeded to deliver a message that amounted to threatening that the MARC space would be the first point of call if there was any more antifa [anti-fascist] activity in Melbourne. They pushed over two bookshelves and swept some zines off the table as they left… Nobody was hurt, and there was no damage done to the space, just some disorganised books. We were all a bit shaken, but looked after each other.

The four males who attended the space were described as being white, as aged between their early 20s and mid-30s, well built, with shaved heads and tattoos.

Typical boneheads, in other words.

One bonehead was referred to as ‘Justin’, and he did most of the yelling. Justin has tattoos on his neck and hands. A second bonehead also spoke. He has reddish hair, tattoos on his neck, and was wearing a green bomber jacket. The third and fourth boneheads were younger; one was described as being ‘stocky’, while the other was wearing a ‘Crew 38’ (Hammerskins) patch on his jacket (and also as having odd-looking eyebrows).

Note that Control of Weapons Regulations 2000 defines “An article designed or adapted to discharge oleoresin capsicum spray” as a prohibited weapon.

TO BE CONTINUED…

Man Arrested for Twittering Goes to Court, EFF Has the Documents

Man Arrested for Twittering Goes to Court, EFF Has the Documents
Kevin Bankston
EFF
October 5, 2009

Over the past day, [e]veryone has been reporting about the arrest last month of Elliot Madison for twittering about police movements to protesters during the G-20 Summit in Pittsburgh, PA.

The reason this is being reported on now is because on last Thursday, the FBI also raided Mr. Madison’s home in Queens, NY, followed on Friday by Mr. Madison’s filing of a motion in the Eastern District of New York federal court in Brooklyn for the return of his seized property.

In reviewing all the stories, we saw lots of quotes from Mr. Madison’s legal filings and from the Pennsylvania state criminal complaint against him, but no links to the legal papers themselves. As a resource to journalists and interested readers, we are posting Mr. Madison’s motion and his lawyer’s supporting declaration; attached to the declaration are copies of the search warrant, an inventory of the seized items, and the original criminal complaint.

Mr. Magic

“She said rap attack, man, not heart attack.”
“Oh you mean she’s alright then, right?”
“Of course man, you never heard of a Mr. Magic rap attack? Where’s this guy from?”

John Rivas : March 15, 1956–October 2, 2009. From One Peoples Project. For Briggs, Keith & Vents:

Unless they know their history, young heads are not going to know who this brother was, but other than the creators of hip hop themselves, Mr. Magic is the most important figure in the history of Hip Hop. In fact we will not be stretching it at all to say Mr. Magic was as big a loss in music this year as Michael Jackson or Les Paul was. Mr. Magic was a late night DJ on 107.5 WBLS-FM. He was the first and for a long time the only DJ to play hip hop on his radio show, and were it not for him, it was highly likely that rap music would have been nothing more than a passing fad in the early 80s club scene. His death from a heart attack was announced Friday morning, and tributes have been pouring in, which is nothing new for him, since rappers have been giving him props for over 20 years. As well they should. It was because of him that they exist.The VH1 Hip Hop Honors 2009 airs on Oct. 13. They will pay tribute.

Oops…

LOL.

In Minneapolis, Minnesota, four boneheads belonging to the National Socialist Movement were told to shoo by as many as several hundred protesters.

The boneheads had gathered in order to stage a little protest of their own, against the conduct of an anti-racist workshop at the local YWCA.

Funnily enough, when an academic conference on whiteness was held in Melbourne last year, there was lots of clucking and squawking on Stormfront Down Under (see Whites not all right! Anti-White Conference bad! Exclamation marks good!!!, December 5, 2008) about how necessary it was for White nationalists to protest against it — none did, so credit to the four neo-Nazis from the NSM.

LOL.

Speaking of the NSM, be sure to listen to the interview the NSM’s Carl D. Thompson (‘Derrick McThomas’) conducted with the leader of the Australia First Party Dr James Saleam.

In other news from The Bunker (Carl’s not Jim’s):

REDS ROUTED OUTSIDE SYDNEY FORUM
AUSTRALIA CALLING
(10/02/09)

A group of 16 sorry-looking reds were beaten down by white patriots, after the reds linked arms and tried to stop people getting into the venue of the annual Sydney Forum. Also, patriots now know everything there is [to] know about anarchist scumbag @ndy. Be afraid @ndy, be very afraid.

Oh noes!

Carl calls me a “scumbag anarchist dirt-sucking piece of filth”, which like, totally hurt my feelings. (And those of my “felching, sodomist Red mates”!)

Where is the love?
