By Bruce Haigh, published 14/3/2011

Julia Gillard's speech to congress signals that Australia is a vassal state of the USA.

Julia Gillard's speech reached one of its lows when she promised over $3million to a Vietnam memorial - the opportunity for her to state that part of the memorial would be towards banning and criminalising land-mines, cluster bombs, Agent Orange, etc which still have their memorial in Vietnam.

An opportunity to influence our 'brother in arms' which would have world-wide importance.

For those who are unaware, Gillard’s visit to the US was an orchestrated piece of theatre, structured by the Melboune Zionists, the same Zionists who manipulated Gillard into the top job after the assassination of Kevin Rudd.
Rudd‘s ego probably deserved a hit but even he was no match for the machinations of the Australian equivalent of the people who run the US from top to bottom, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a fifth column cancer in the gut of America. These were the advisers to Bush, lied about Iraq and Afghanistan and still controlling the rhetorical Obama and his new playmate, the 'vegemite girl'.
The Zionists and neocons are everywhere, controlling the votes of 80% of the Congress and Senate through corruption and largesse and thereby controlling US foreign policy.

Just so in Australia but to a lesser degree, but pulling Gillard’s strings, nonetheless.. Other than the covert operations through the embassy, they are a destructive force against Australian values. She comes out in favour of the Israeli killing of 1400 Palestinians in Gaza and never sheds a tear, either for them or the fire victims, our flood casualties or soldiers in Afghanistan but in front of all the cameras, turns on the tears for a man on the moon, ‘America can do anything’.

What a tasteless sham!

Never has there been such a sideshow but when AIPAC say ‘jump’ to Obama, a total Israeli stooge, he jumps. That is the only reason he is there.

The independence that is Australia should be maintained. The ability to mix it with the big boys and be a terrorist like the US in a country of 24 million people is ridiculous. What countries have been identified as a threat to Australia?

Let us do what we can for the protection of our country starting with electing capable politicians of worth and living within our military means with on-shore facilities.

One thing we do not need is an American base on our soil.

...All the way with LBJ. I am a strong believer in the USA/Au alliance, but as a believer in that alliance I support the notions of this article in its criticisms of Political fawning to the USA: A fawning that is outdated in its intent to succour favour that will be its usual “one way street” from America, and will only arrive by way of American advantage, if at all.

Julia sought and received several rounds of applause from the Congress audience of mostly stand-ins.

Her emotion filled address was way over the top to all except the most deluded, wrecking any credibility for her claim to a seat on the UN Security Council.

After such a fairy floss speech, Julia's moon dream deserves recognition: first woman on the moon?

So why was the Adelaide to Darwin rail line built?

Surely not to supply a US military base in Darwin at some time in the future.

I’m also sure that Gillard’s current poll rating as Prime Minister (the lowest Prime Minister poll rating ever on record), is not all attributable to the carbon tax.

While she wants to be seen with Oprah, and wants to be “mates” with the US President, she certainly hasn’t charmed the Australian public, who are supposed to be paying her wages.
