The Privvy Council said they thought his conviction was a miscarriage of justice, and Binnie seems to think compensation is due. Everyone else seems to know better…

If he did it, he served a decent amount of time in jail.

And if he didn’t do it, then he’s a hell of a guy for coming out of it as well as he has. (Though I guess if someone killed your whole family, you may as well be in jail, the outside world’s not going to look very good to you anyway…?)

PS I don’t believe that you would donate money to Palestinians.

Luc, I congratulate you on your perspicacity. I believe that is what I was saying.

Now, where is the charity for kids on both sides of the fence? Tell you what, rather than trusting you, which would be foolish, nominate the charity that will ensure that it actually gets to the kids. I’ll toss in $500 and then just to show that you don’t hate Israeli kids, you chuck in $500. We’ll do it through Farrar to make sure the money gets paid and goes to where it’s meant to go. I mean after all, you don’t actually hate Israeli kids do you Luc?

It goes without saying (well, almost) that Farrar will of course need to report back on this blog as to whether we both pay up.

http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2012/11/27/274881/brzezinski-us-must-stop-following-israel/

Let’s hope this is a Stuff Politics Quiz question sometime, not that many would be able to answer it: why would Brzezhinsky be saying this?

The strong words from Brzezinski, and the mainstreaming of similar sentiments, illustrate a growing backlash against Israel’s ever-more-shameless, ever-more poorly concealed domination of the USA. The post-9/11 era has witnessed a rash of unbelievably arrogant Israeli actions, including:

Benjamin Netanyahu’s reaction to 9/11 (He triumphantly chortled that 9/11 was “very good,” then hastily added that he meant it was very good for Israel.).

Ariel Sharon’s reaction to 9/11, “We Jews control America, and the Americans know it.”

…

The Israel lobby’s demolition of the Congressional career of 9/11-truth-seeker Rep. Cynthia McKinney.

…

The Israel lobby’s persecution of Christian peacemaker Mark Siljander, who was sent to prison on trumped-up charges for the crime of telling other Christians the truth about Islam, and thereby undermining the Israeli’s islamophobic “war on terror” narrative.

The Israel lobby’s increasing use of its organized crime assets to dominate American politics through blackmail, fraud, drug trafficking, money laundering, assassination, and other crimes.

Israel’s ongoing attempts to drag the US into wars-for-Israel that damage US interests – including wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Pakistan and elsewhere, as well as Israel’s proposed attack on Iran.

And finally, of course, Israel’s ever-more-arrogant refusal to do what the US and every other country on earth insists it must do: Return to its pre-1967 borders and make peace with its neighbors.

“What are you so happy about, Abdul?” Asks the Imam.

“Well, I’ll tell you,” replies Abdul. “I live by the railroad tracks and on my way home last night, I noticed a young woman tied to the rails, like in the American movies. I cut her free and took her back to my humble abode. Allah be praised – we made love all night, all around the tent. We did everything, me on top, sometimes her on top, every position permitted by Mohammed, Peace Be Upon Him!”

“By the most Merciful,” exclaimed the Imam, “you have been blessed. Was she as beautiful as a desert flower?”

Abdul grimaced, “By the Jinn, I do not know – I never found her head.”

Noskire. Its true. They are banning shorts on construction sites, road worker i.e. just about anyone who contracts to any Govt. dept.
They have gone berzerk via ACC on all sorts fo stupid shit.
Work sites closed down around here because of insfufficient scaffolding on single story houses. Sacffold Co.’s cruising the sites and dobbing in builders.
Guess who is paying.

Seeing red over new Cera dress code
A worker in Christchurch’s central city red zone says it is “bizarre and ridiculous” that he may not be able to wear shorts or T-shirts to work next year.

The Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (Cera) has proposed “new minimum safety requirements” for red-zone workers, directing they wear “long pants, hard hats, long-sleeved tops, gloves, protective boots and eyewear”.

The Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) guidelines were designed to protect workers from skin cancer, as well as help prevent “burns, abrasions, contact with cement, concrete, diesel and other chemicals”.

Brayden Sullivan, 29, was outraged when his boss informed him about the policy.

He was told the reason behind the proposal was concern about “melanoma and scratches”.

Three men died on Christmas Eve and were met by Saint Peter at the pearly gates.

‘In honor of this holy season’ Saint Peter said, ‘You must each possess something that symbolizes Christmas to get into heaven.’

The Englishman fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a lighter. He flicked it on. ‘It’s a candle’, he said.

‘You may pass through the pearly gates’ Saint Peter said.

The Scotsman reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of keys. He shook them and said, ‘They’re bells.’

Saint Peter said ‘You may pass through the pearly gates’.

The Irishman started searching desperately through his pockets and finally pulled out a pair of women’s panties.

St. Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and asked, ‘And just what do those symbolize?’

The paddy replied, ‘These are Carols.’

And So The Christmas Season
Begins……

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four young Mothers and their small children. You all have obsessions,’ he observed.

To the first mother, Mary, he said, ‘You are obsessed with eating. You’ve even named your daughter Candy.’

He turned to the second mum, Ann: ‘Your obsession is with money. Again, it manifests itself in your child’s name, Penny.’

He turned to the third Mum, Kathy: ‘Your obsession is alcohol.
This too shows itself in your child’s name, Brandy.’

At this point, the fourth mother, Joyce, quietly got up, took her little boy by the hand and whispered, ‘Come on Dick, this guy has no idea what he’s talking about. Lets pick Willy up from school and go home.

There’s a HUGE vote at the UN today as to whether to recognise ‘Palestine’ as a state, and there is talk it could try to force Israel back to it’s 1967 borders.

RAMALLAH, West Bank — The expected U.N. vote today to recognize a state of Palestine will be far more than symbolic — it could give the Palestinians leverage in future border talks with Israel and open the way for possible war crimes charges against the Jewish state.

The Palestinians want the 193-member General Assembly to accept “Palestine,” on the lands Israel occupied in 1967, as a nonmember observer state. They anticipate broad support.
For Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, the U.N. bid is a last-ditch attempt to stay relevant as a leader after years of failed peace talks with Israel, at a time when his Islamic militant Hamas rivals are gaining ground.

The U.S. and Israel have tried to block the quest for U.N. recognition of Palestine, saying it’s an attempt to bypass Israeli-Palestinian negotiations that broke down four years ago.
The U.S. deputy secretary of state, William Burns, met with Abbas in New York on Wednesday, asking Abbas again to drop the idea and promising that President Barack Obama would re-engage as a mediator in 2013, said Abbas aide Saeb Erekat. Abbas told Burns it was too late.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said U.N. recognition of an independent Palestine won’t help to reach a lasting two-state peace agreement and stressed that the “path to a two-state solution that fulfills the aspirations of the Palestinian people is through Jerusalem and Ramallah, not New York.”

Israel, meanwhile, appeared to back away from threats of drastic measures if the Palestinians get U.N. approval, with officials suggesting the government would take steps only if the Palestinians use their new status to act against Israel.

The Palestinians say they need U.N. recognition of a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, lands Israel captured in 1967, to be able to resume negotiations with Israel.

http://www.leadertelegram.com/news/daily_updates/article_69f50f9e-39e9-11e2-bc47-001a4bcf887a.html

Meanwhile, John Howard has called Julia Gillard’s flip-flop on the vote “pathetic” (as Australia will now abstain from voting).

JOHN Howard has branded Julia Gillard’s backdown over her push to vote no for UN observer status for Palestine as an “embarrassment” as the issue reignited internal criticisms within the government about the Prime Minister’s judgment and leadership style.

The former prime minister made a rare re-entry into contemporary politics to describe the cabinet backlash and caucus revolt as “a very bad sign when you get rolled on something like that”…

Mr Howard said: “I just think it is pathetic for a country to abstain on something like this.

“We are meant to be striking a confident new pose and the first thing we do is abstain. I can’t find any other word than pathetic. I don’t think I would have so misunderstood my cabinet or was unable to convince them. I never had anything like this, especially on foreign policy.”

The Gillard government was pushed to the brink over the Prime Minister’s insistence that Australia vote against Palestine’s bid to upgrade its status at the UN. Just minutes before the caucus meeting, Foreign Minister Bob Carr stood in Gillard’s office and told her, eyeball to eyeball, to change her mind or she faced a humiliating defeat.

He pleaded with her to back an abstention on the UN General Assembly motion to recognise Palestine as a non-member state observer.

In the end, Gillard relented and a crisis was averted, but only narrowly…

Several ministers and backbenchers … were seized by the dramatic change in the caucus on the Israel-Palestine issue, with several factors that have been slowly building within Labor—Israel’s settlement policy, increasing violence by settlers against Palestinians and a right-wing Israeli prime minister who backed Mitt Romney over Barack Obama.

http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/andrewbolt/index.php/heraldsun/comments/labor_again_sells_us_out_for_muslim_votes_in_western_sydney/

ANd –

THE Prime Minister was braced for a frontal assault from the Opposition about her past, but she didn’t expect the spontaneous revolt from her own party over her support for Israel.

Julia Gillard relied on her authority as Prime Minister when she decided on Monday that Australia would vote in support of Israel in a forthcoming ballot in the United Nations, but her authority proved inadequate. Gillard overruled the strong advice of her Foreign Affairs Minister, Bob Carr, and the overwhelming opinion of her cabinet to insist on her position. This set off a firestorm.

The uprising was led by Bob Carr. ”He was on the ring-a-round,” canvassing support for his position, said a factional convener. ”I’ve never seen a Cabinet minister stand up to a prime minister like that.” But after being advised that she was about to face a full Caucus revolt on the matter on Tuesday, Gillard capitulated. Importantly, the bedrock support base for Gillard in the Caucus, the Right faction, split.

While the Victorian bloc of the Right wanted to bind all the faction’s votes nationally in support of the Prime Minister, the NSW group refused.

It was a rare and humiliating backdown for a prime minister.

And it was an important marker in Australian political sentiment about the impassioned dispute between Israel and the Palestinians.

Gillard had insisted that Australia vote against giving Palestine observer status in the UN General Assembly; her party forced her to change Australia’s position to abstaining instead.

Only seven countries are expected to vote against the move to upgrade Palestinian recognition – Israel, the US, Canada, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau and the Marshall Islands. If Gillard had prevailed, Australia would have been the eighth.

Indeed, Fletch, in a few hours time the Israeli hasbara machine will be in full flight with variations on the theme of “It doesn’t change anything!” Which, of course, would betray their earlier insistent threats against Palestinians for properly pursuing their legal rights in the ultimate legal forum for nation states – as this resolution will confirm Palestine is entitled to utilise.

Because it is, in fact a propitious moment on a propitious day, the exact date, 65 years ago when the most immoral act ever of the UN took place in the General Assembly, then dominated by the now ex colonial powers.

It will be a day of great humiliation for Israel and the US, the forthcoming protestations of Tim_Oz and KIA (even Tom Hunter may return for this particular propaganda assignment) notwithstanding. But squealing about it won’t make it not so, boys!

Just watch folks, and remember, you heard it from me first.

And except for a couple of bullied and/or bribed small island states, the negative and the abstaining voting blocks will be the rump of those colonial powers who just won’t let go of their innate belief in white supremacy.

Sadly, the latter group is likely to include new Zealand, always particularly sycophantic to the US under National or National-led governments, but that will also change looking forward as our society becomes increasingly diverse.

If Israel is a democracy, and its own tourist maps show an Israel between the river and the sea, up to the Lebanon border and to the Egypt border, why are 5 million Palestinians disenfranchised?

And as a democracy, why does it have 39 basic laws discriminating in favour of Jews?

Israel doesn’t get attacked all the time – it always starts their conflicts, the one notable exception being Sadat’s surprise attack aimed at retaking Sinai.

I totally support the Palestinian cause.

Luc, there is no such thing as “Palestinians”.
There is no such place and never has been.

‘Palestine’ is a generic term for the area, much as ‘The Antipodes’ is a term for Australia and New Zealand, coined by the British. It would be as absurd if a group started calling themselves ‘Antipodeans” and demanding their own state.

And no, you’re wrong about who does the attacking. Israel has only defended itself when provoked, never the aggressor.

Fletch it’s quite simple. If that’s what they really want, that’s what they should act like. But they don’t. They never have. Now maybe just maybe the soldiers and the pilots and the gunners in the IDF don’t have any choice, they just obey orders, after all, that’s what soldiers do.

The only real question is, since the IDF really actually does in fact act like thugs, which the whole world sees, all the time, whose orders are they carrying out? It’s simply not possible to hallucinate they don’t act like thugs, that’s just hysterical nonsense. The whole world just saw it again a few days ago.

Legislation the Government says will rein in local authority rates increases was passed yesterday amid Opposition criticism it was unjustified and would result in reduced services to communities.

Local Government NZ warned the law risked leaving councils open to expensive legal challenges which ratepayers would ultimately pay for.

The Local Government Act Amendment Bill passed with the support of the Act and United Future parties.
—————————

Now I’m sure someone will correct me if I am wrong but.
The act is the brainchild of former Local Government Minister Nick Smith who introduced it with claims local authority spending, debt and rates hikes were out of control as councils spent up on wage and salary increases and on services outside core areas of activity.

This was a core ACT policy. Now I know Banks considers himself and ACT person (which he is not), but to claim Smith invented it is appalling.

DPF,

Thought you might be interested in this:

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324352004578132993575990774.html

Not in the least surprisingly the teacher’s union over here in Louisiana is trying to stop Jindal’s school voucher program.
I think the real issue at stake is money. Charter and private schools are non union and non bureaucrat and so teacher or public sector unions don’t collect any dues, which are of course simply passed on to the Dems. It is simply a method of indirect involuntary taxpayer support of one particular political party and the sums involved are huge. This is what the fight is really about, as much as the ideology of Govt control and non choice (except if you are a wealthy liberal in which case your kids will go to the finest most expensive private schools. e.g Obama’s kids).

In light of the left’s reaction to a couple of charter schools in NZ, an interesting piece of research to conduct would be how many dollars are collected in union dues from NZ teachers and education bureaucrats and see where this money ends up. Most of it would fund the Labour party I would expect. That might be some fun ammo to throw around at the lefties the next time they try to take pot shots at charter schools.

Charter schools are outrageously popular here in New Orleans, especially amongst poor African Americans whose kids now have a shot at a decent education. There really would be an uprising at any attempt to shut down or curtail charter schools here, so it is both funny and sad to follow the discussion in NZ on the subject.

Bloomberg said he is modeling New York’s school reform on the New Orleans model, so the cat is well and truly out of the bag on school reform, the left are going to lose this one over here. Might not make the headlines but it is a big deal.

Normally she’s like one of those small, annoying little dogs that yaps and yaps and drives you mildly nuts with their constant noise, but you can find some way to ignore them – lock it in another room, scoop it up in one hand and fling it over the neighbour’s fence. She doesn’t usually go all the way and actually take a nip at your ankle …
