Yes Nairbe.

I was amused to read Ken Henry whingeing about having to do a modicum of work for a change now the Green-Independents are asking a handful of questions.

Poor souless souls, having to forego a smoko break to get the sums right.

Poor old Ken, having to answer a question, instead of telling them the answer to their unasked questions.

Wait till the US-Israel leaks flood out, then we'll see just how uncommitted the USA are to Palestine, and how they really support the expansion into Palestinian land.

Too bad there are no Russian leaks, that'd be a real laugh, with their leaders all on the dognbone to Italy every day, to get their Mafia instructions.

According to the Australian, Independent MP Andrew Wilkie has accused Julia Gillard of trashing freedom of speech...

Why not Poirot?

She's trashed left wing politics, the integrity of the office of PM, the ALP, good political behaviour (not alone there) and intelligent interviewing.

very funny how the lefties would call Mr Howard Bush's lapdog. Oh how the truth hurts!

Well runner never thought I could say this.
First time in my memory your comment is far from the silliest in this thread.
Wikileaks is run by a hero.
His information,the only possible crime, came from the only possible criminal, some one else.
Those who are in any way concerned at greens actions and intentions should read this thread.
I would guess no government this country ever had did not give such information to England and America.
What has been said about Rudd is true, shame we did not get this information about two years ago,Gillard and her cabinet have not betrayed us,yes they appear as focused as a blind man on a galloping horse, bound to the minority greens .
But Wikileaks is about truth freedom to be informed and to talk.
How many, tell me,find any reason to follow the green trail and condemn any Australian politician for talking to America.
In the strangest way condemning any of the Australian politicians lets America of the hook, they have leaked, they call even for death, they have little regard for what we know as law.
Howard and his crew and a lot more went all the way with the USA and in truth most Australians never knew how far they crawled on their knees.

The problem Jewelly with the Germans taking criminal action against the CIA is simple:

In the real world, there are issues of national security which cannot be effectively dealt with by the normal course of "law".

"Law"...remember is what is 'made up' in order to maintain a status quo of basic peace, so the cabal of very wealthy people can continue to exploit the wealth of a country for their own benefit.

It's an illusion to think that the "law" is ultimately intended to mean 'equal justice' for all.
