It's hilarious! Bush blames Iraqi rebels for trying to derail democratic process... but isn't that precisely what HE did (and his brother Jeb etc) back in 2000 when he took office in a covert coup! And right now the USA has accepted a form of electronic voting that is unreliable, unverifiable, and funded by radical right-wing christian rat-bags!

The events at Abu Ghraib in Iraq reveal the conservative utopia in practice: power unrestrained by any of those pesky judicial activists, the human rights industry or international agencies, and power exercised in an atmosphere of politically incorrect bonhomie resembling a Quadrant dinner or a footballers' night out. The sickening abuse at Abu Ghraib in Iraq reveals John Howard's heavy breathing conservative utopia in practice: power unrestrained by annoying judicial activists, human rights groups or other non-government agencies, and power exercised in an atmosphere of politically incorrect bonhomie resembling a football team's night out. Democracy? It's going straight down the toilet.

What mind-altering substance is our disgraceful PM indulging in? He claims Iraq is the "frontline" in the "war against terrorism", but neglects to mention that the US drew that frontline in the Iraqi sand when it invaded. Prior to the US invasion, terrorism was a foreign threat (like George W Bush himself). OK then, so the PM can't specify an exact time-frame for the withdrawal of our illegitimate troop presence, but I think I can put a timeframe on John W Howard's withdrawal from parliament: election day!

Maybe Max is expecting John Howard to dinner?

I'd prefer to see Johnny Virus on Nauru, in one of his very own concentration camps for the unwanted, and in the tender loving care of fraudmeister Rene Harris and the rest of those bankrupt, money-laundering crooks who have brought financial ruin on that once prosperous pile of bird shit in the Pacific.

Why should the occupation end? Because WMDs have never been found, which was the reason the president said it was necessary to invade Iraq. Because Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's incompetent planning sent too few troops to prevent widespread looting or to maintain electricity and the water supply. Because this was a war of choice, not of necessity. Because most of the Iraqi population now views Americans as occupiers, rather than as liberators. Because photographs revealing brutal and humiliating atrocities committed against Iraqi prisoners have shredded American moral credibility. Because the U.S. occupation of Iraq has provided al Qaeda terrorists with powerful propaganda for recruiting new suicide bombers and for justifying their barbaric act of beheading an American civilian.

Stupid Americans stuffing everything up

OK i give up: why is your chainsaw on the kitchen table?

Until the mistreated and disenfranchised Palestinians are given a fair go, nothing will change

So lets give all those fucken foreign fighters the boot, right? that includes the UK and USA!

Ahhh Max wake up! Can't you see it's the mad mullahs of Tehran and the Baathists of Damascus who are behind all the terror in Iraq?
A cursory inspection of the world press would clearly inform you of this.
Blow 'em all fuckin' up!

it is a decietful theory of everyone is equal.
obviously nonsense.

What does it mean?

Pat, I am hurt and stung to the core by your personal attack. All I can say is, John Howard's tongue has already beaten your's to that tight little orifice you hanker for.

Well it's only been 2 days but the video is out already:

Oh la la!

Someone should explain to the Bush gang what "democracy" actually means!

's nothing more 's nothing less

Who was that guy? Why did the ( U.S. sponsored) Iraki police arrest him? Why did the U.S. authorities detain him? There's more to this story - as usual - than you see on the 6o'clock news

Right on Patriot!
And we should just blow the fuck out of all them just to besure they dont bother us again.

they say dick cooked taste just like chicken

Hey all you sick sactimonious hypocrite Yanks! You wanted "shock & awe"? You fucken got it!

Fast and bulbous

OK Max. I've worked it out. You're really Michael Moore aren't you? Come on admit it!

Nice one Max! Oh, and how awful about that poor dumb shmuck from Palookaville USA who went to Iraq for some fast cash and got decapitated instead! How barbaric! Not as civilised as getting your arms and legs blown off by US ordinance!!!

Rumsfeld is fucken insane! on the one hand he dismissively says "torture is technically different" to what he has seen in those sick photos, then he tells the U.S. Congress that this shit is 'sadistic, cruel and inhuman' , with worse evidence to come! Like what? Fucken beheadings?! What a fucken mess! Amerika, you're standing in it! ANGRY DOG

Those Iraqi rebels chopped off the wrong guy's head!

Pass me my glasses

at the party of special things to do?

Yeah and the camel wore a nightie

Realpolitik? Surrealpolitik!

Send that git Downer to Iraq and dump him in some Baghdad backstreet at night in nothing but his bra and fishnet stockings! With all the pompous authority and sanctimonious gravitous of his office, the Australian Foreign Minister is sure to receive a fabulous welcome from the locals he and his Washington masters have delievered into the gentle arms of George Bush's idea of democracy!

just like what happened in that Iraqi prison...

Did he mean "fuck and grunt?

was it Max called 'cut and run' 'Cunt and Runt'

good one max; whoop their asses

What an phenomenal fuck-up! There is now absolutely no way for a "dignified exit from Iraq", and U.S. forces will have no influence on what happens in Iraq the day after its forces leave, whether they leave immediately or five years from now. _ Dusty Davo from Derrimut

Does protecting "our way of life" include shoving broken flashlights up people's arses? Does it include smashing chemical light globes and pouring the phosphoric liquid over people? Does it include forced sexual abuse and torture? Does it include murder? If so, then what's the difference between "us" and Saddam Hussein's goons? Hey, at least Saddam had Islamist fanatics under control and the electricity and water running!

Yeah but will it stop the pains in the ass like you!

Who could be more ill-equipped to conduct a war against those who commit terror in the name of God than a man in the White House who commits terror in the name of God?

What goes around, comes around. History has marked John W Howard well. As he once ominusly said: "the times will suit me". And what treacherous, duplicitous times they are!

I've read around 40 SAS personnel (trained at a cost to the Australian taxpayer at $2 Million a pop!) have resigned since the U.S. occupation of Iraq and have gone into "private practice". So much for the "spirit of ANZAC"!

- Dusty Davo from Derrimut

And Rubert Brooke was an ignorant twit!

That smarmy old fuck Bush jr is the one with his dick hanging out to fucken dry. And its just about chopped right fucken off in fricken Iraq!

Bush MUST be impeached. Blair MUST be sacked. And Johnny Germ MUST be shot from a cannon somewhere over the Timor sea.

You can't "spread democracy" with violence, intidimidation, ignorance and greed as your chief tools. You can, however, spread the current, bastardised, corrupt U.S. version of "democracy".

Saddam used intimidation and violence to consolidate his power, the U.S. uses intimidation and violence to consolidate their power; Saddam locked up political prisoners without recourse to law or jusitice, the U.S. locks up political prisoners without recourse to law of justice; Saddam tortured victims for the hell of it, the U.S. tortures victims for the hell of it; Saddam opposed Islamic rule, the U.S. opposes Islamic rule... So, what's all this crap about "democracy' again?!

Iraq: mercenary heaven! The U.S. occupation of Iraq was always about oil and money: four Aussie SAS soldiers who fought in Iraq 12 months ago are back in the country working as private operators for AKE, a British-based international security group. And that's just the tip of a humungous bloody iceberg. Fuck 'em all.

In the end all I can do is scream "Leave me alone you fucking bastards!". And if they don't... if they don't... ???

no fluff magazine

i send 'em

Beats Les Murray. Maybe Johnny Germ will hire you as Australia's national poet?

Doesn't count as there is no war on there.
In fact they were just giving them a lift home.
