text Oil interests flout International Law in Balkans fish 2007-06-11 7:03 PM
Republican president Bush follows Democrat president Clinton’s course in the Balkans; oil pipelines and gas supplies take precedence over every other consideration including international law and the sanctity of human life. Bush has challenged Russia, Serbia and International Law by announcing during his recent visit to Albania that Kosovo, a Serbian province, would become independent in the near future, negotiations must result in “certain independence ... that’s what’s important to know”, he said!

Australian Racism - A Case Study - Palm Island 2004 - 2006 For those interested in the manner in which institutionalised racism functions in the Australian context, one need look no further than the case of the death of an Aboriginal man on Palm Island, the historically notorious QLD Government 'punishment camp' under the old QLD 'apartheid system'.

text The Law and Media Censorship in Australia Patrick L. 2007-06-11 7:33 AM
Although since 1992 free speech has been protected in the constitution of Australia, the government and other public figures with power and access to high-powered lawyers have been finding ways within the law to make our right to free speech conditional on what we speak and about whom we speak it.
