News Limited classic in media manipulation
Later today I will be adding a large article by Peter Charlton that is featured in today's News Limited Courier Mail Monitor. Headed "Gurus of Gloom" the article takes extracts from my yet to be published response to his ill-informed article on MAI last week.
The response has not been published as yet by the paper but extracts appear mysteriously in today's article with the following introduction "In a long response to last weeks report on the MAI, Balson wrote...."
His selective cutting and pasting leaves any reference to the FSIA completely out of the picture!
SDDS... like a spreading disease international treaties threaten to engulf us after initial infection.
The IMF's SDDS (Special Data Dissemination Standard) is a new signed plague on Australia. In a prelude to the, yet to be signed, MAI the international money power are now changing the articles of agreement as the sands shift in their favour.
You can read what we have on it so far here.
Quote of the week:
Last night some of Australia's most powerful gathered at Sydney's Star Casino to pay homage to radio presenter John Laws.
Amongst the group was Opposition leader Kim Beazley who said, "He's a very powerful man and if I told you I was here for any other reason I would be lying."
ATSIC car used for drug running
The Deputy Chairman of ATSIC, "Sugar Ray Robinson" is being investigated after allowing his son Floyd to use his ATSIC vehicle. This he did for drug running.
Floyd Robinson was fined a total of Au$4,350 in Charleville's Magistrate Court in December for selling marijuana. Floyd admitted to selling the illegal drug from the ATSIC car. The magistrate convicted him of possessing and supply of a dangerous drug and using a "thing, namely a Toyota sedan, for supply of a dangerous drug".
Floyd was fined a further Au$850 for drink-driving and unlicensed driving offences.
The ATSIC car is leased to Sugar Ray Robinson as part of his salary package. The case was covered up by ATSIC until Independent MP Graeme Campbell raised the issue yesterday in Parliament's Question on Notice. The Federal Government have now been prompted to do something about the case and have decided to investigate.
Yesterday Sugar Ray Robinson said, "He did the wrong thing and he got fined in the court and he deserved that.
"I had no knowledge of him using the vehicle, but he was allowed to.
"My wife sent him up to the shops and that's when it (the drug bust) happened."
Robinson said that his son was entitled to use the vehicle as it was a private lease, "I pay Au$80 a month for it - ATSIC Commissioners who want to pay for a Commonwealth car for private use are allowed to let their families use them."
Wow! Where do I get a new vehicle for private use on a leasing arrangement for just Au$80 per month? Obviously another taxpayer-funded scam used by the Aboriginal industry.
U.S. May Fight Murdoch-MCI Satellite Plan
Extract from Wasington Post:
Government antitrust officials are taking aim at Rupert Murdoch's latest highflying venture.
After almost eight months of investigation, the Justice Department is preparing to challenge a plan by Murdoch's News Corp. and MCI Communications Corp. to merge their U.S. satellite TV operations with Primestar Partners, the nation's second-largest satellite TV company, sources familiar with the inquiry say. The department's telecommunications staff will recommend soon that the merger be blocked outright or substantially modified, according to these sources.
Although such a recommendation doesn't guarantee that the government will sue to stop Murdoch-MCI and Primestar, it reflects deep-seated concerns by staff experts about the pending $1.1 billion deal.
Making the
news" -
Subject: CABLESPLICE
"CODEWORD: CABLESPLICE" fits in neatly with "THE PLAN" as exposed in another banned book denigrated by the mass media as a HOAX, called "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" 1934. If a book is banned, that's a good reason for reading it!
Linda Thompson (on Operation Garden Plot.) is an Indianapolis based attorney. Her research group that produced the video WACO- THE BIG LIE provide enough evidence on this tape alone, to convince any sceptic that something really frightening is happening behind the backs of the American people. Why not here? After all our media as well as that of the whole world provided the same cover up lies about the WACO incident. (and still do.)
Should anyone cry coincidence, I challenge them to find an "INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALIST" game enough to use the video on one of our national television networks. (without censoring it) Good ratings guaranteed!
Philip Madsen.
Another perfect day in paradise.
Have a good one.
