David Hicks and the death of a legal system : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 20/2/2015

Australians tend to demonise or sanctify their legal villains, casting a social net around them that either protects, or asphyxiates them.

Constance you are right about the Zionist Cabal of banking imperialism but most Jews have no idea of how they too are being manipulated and screwed by this counterfeiting of our money.

When Bush brought in the Patriot Act and Obama brought in the NDAA + legalised assassination by the CIA, very few knew that fascism was a our door step.

Dear LEGO,

I have no way of knowing what Australian soldiers
would think of my stance regarding the David Hicks
case. Whether they would spit on me as you suggest
or not. I certainly can only hope that as soldiers
they would respect the rule of law and due process.
David Hicks did not fight against Australian or US
troops. He did not engage foreign soldiers in combat.
He did not break any International, American or
Australian laws. And he has now been cleared of the
charges imposed against him.

I trust that soldiers would see the injustice of what
David Hicks was forced to go through.

Foxy, soldiers of today probably would do as you suggest, being well-trained and educated in thinking through problems so as to make good decisions.

Old blowhard pretenders, on the other hand...

Constance,

Steady up there; people might get the idea that you are some sort of Conspiracy nut.

Dear Craig,

The men in uniform that we have known -
were always rather quiet in their commentaries
about the battles they fought or the soldiers
they fought against. Most, simply did not want to
talk about their experiences. They did they job -
and preferred not to discuss things with civilians,
even family members. Perhaps that may have added to the
problem of some of them not being able to adjust
to normal life - but that's another issue.

To Foxy Fonda.

You only have the word of a traitor who was trained by Al Qaida, and was palsy walsy with Osama bin Laden, that he did not fight anybody. But of vourse, you believe him. After all, he is a brave insurgent who has no loyalty to his own country, and that makes him a sexy guy to people like you.

Anything that that little terrorist says must be considered unquestionable. The only people who tell lies are elected western governments in the countries that you and your friends choose to live in.

It is just so cool and hip to display your contempt for your own country. So David is a real celeb. Especially for fighting for the enemy of the hated Americans. Wow,what a guy. I'll bet all of your undergraduate nieces have pictures of David up beside the posters of Che Gueverra, Katy Perry, and Lady Ga Ga on their bedroom walls.

The rule of thumb appears to be, if your country supports it, then the true social progressive must reflexively oppose it. That formula even applies to terrorists like Hicks. You are just not cool if you think otherwise. And you must also display your love and friendship for any enemy of your country, make every excuse for their terrorist behaviour, and always present them as the cruel victims of your own people.
