Media-Ignored US, Corporate And Zionist Subversion Of Australian Democracy
In Ex-PM Rudd-PM Gillard Battle

By Dr Gideon Polya

27 February, 2012
Countercurrents.org

Corporate, US and Zionist subversion is about to achieve a huge victory  for corporatism,  neo-fascism and racism in Australia – it appears that by midday Monday 27 February 2012 the corporate-, US- and Zionist-subverted  Australian Labor Party will have been effectively destroyed when, as predicted, two thirds of the Labor MPs will vote for right wing, pro-war, pro-Zionist, anti-environment and slavishly  pro-US PM Julia Gillard to be PM and against former PM Kevin Rudd, who nevertheless has the support of two thirds of Australian voters.

In 2007 right wing (”small c conservative” ) Kevin Rudd won a landslide victory in the Australian Federal elections in which the conservative pro-war, pro-Zionist, pro-US, anti-environment Coalition PM John Howard lost his own seat. The key election issues were inhumane treatment of asylum seekers (refugees), man-made climate change, war, and industrial fairness for workers. PM Rudd quickly moved to ease the maltreatment of refugees, sign the Kyoto Protocol, say “Sorry” to Australia's sorely oppressed Indigenous people, remove Australian combat troops from Iraq, and scrap the draconian industrial  legislation of the previous Coalition Government. Because of a Coalition-dominated Senate Rudd was unable to get through legislation on an Emissions Trading Scheme or ETS (a so-called Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme or CPRS, which would have actually increased Australian domestic plus exported greenhouse gas pollution) but we was able to secure a Renewable Energy Bill to enable 20% renewable energy by 2020.

Critically, Rudd ensured that Australia was negligibly affected by the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) in contrast to all other European G20 countries. However, as amplified below, Rudd made enemies of the US (over Afghanistan ), made enemies of the Zionist Lobby (by protesting Israeli terrorist attacks on Australians) and made enemies of the foreign-owned mining corporations (by proposing a massive tax on excess mining profits). The Mining Lobby launched a multi-million dollar advertising campaign against Labor, Labor's popularity plummeted and Rudd resigned as PM  on 24 June 2010 after being ambushed in a 24 hour Coup led by the extreme pro-Zionist faction within the Labor Party which installed left wing-turned-right wing, pro-coal, pro-gas, pro-war, anti-environment and slavishly pro-US Julia Gillard as PM.  The 2010 elections resulted in a Minority Labor Government that could only rule with the help of 1 Green and 3 independent MPs. However the election returned a large number of Green Senators which meant that Labor legislation was no longer blocked in the Senate.

PM Gillard was able to pass large amount of legislation but her personal popularity dropped as did Labor's electoral support. Critical reasons for this unpopularity were the dismissal of a popularly elected PM Kevin Rudd in 2010, Gillard's breaking of her 2010 election promise that “There will be no carbon tax under  a government I lead” (in actuality her major achievement was the passage of Carbon Tax-ETS legislation, which nevertheless will see a massive increase in Australia's Domestic plus exported greenhouse gas pollution), the  breaking of her promise to an Independent backer on reform of gambling laws, and her wooden rhetoric in the most appalling Australian English (known as “Strine” after how some Australians pronounce “Australian”).  With Labor facing electoral disaster in the 2013 elections, the media played up the unhappiness of Rudd (now the Foreign Minister) and a renewed leadership bid. Things came to a head last week with the leaking of a video of Rudd losing his temper and vitriolic attacks on his personality by leading Labor figures. Rudd was effectively forced to resign as Foreign Minister and publicly announce a challenge to PM Gillard.

As things stand 1 day before the crucial vote of the Labor MPs on Monday 27 February, about two thirds of these MPs support Gillard for PM but a number of polls show that conversely two third of voters support Rudd for PM. Many believe that if – as now appears very likely – PM Gillard retains her position as PM,  Labor will be decimated at the next elections (in 2013) and will be finished as a major party for a decade and possibly for ever. The debate – such as it is – boils down to Gillard and supporters making highly offensive claims that it is impossible to work with  Rudd (claims refuted by the successes of his coup-abbreviated administration) and Rudd and supporters stating that the 2010 Coup was wrong and that Rudd represents the only hope for Labor to avoid a catastrophic electoral defeat involving the loss of  perhaps 30 seats to the Coalition under extreme right wing Tony Abbott.

The 2010 "midnight coup" against Rudd perverted democracy because (1) Rudd had only 14 hours overnight to present his case, (2) Rudd was evidently presented with an overwhelmingly de facto situation borne of long-term conspiracy and so there was no vote, (3) "faceless men" played a powerful part in the process, (4) there was a major foreign contribution to the outcome (via  the US, largely foreign-owned mining corporations and the Zionist Lobby acting in the interests of race-based, genocidal Apartheid Israel), and (5) grossly deficient reportage by US-, corporate- and Zionist-perverted Mainstream media (including the cowardly irresponsible , taxpayer-funded ABC) of the major foreign contribution to the process.

The extent of Neocon American and Zionist Imperialist (NAZI) domination of the Australian Labor Party Parliamentary Caucus is revealed in The Age today that reports  that 75% of Labor MPs in the 20 most marginal seats prefer to lose their seats rather than support Rudd i.e. they would prefer personal political oblivion and an extreme right wing Abbott Government to Rudd, an Australia-first  Labor leader: "Labor's most marginal seat holders overwhelmingly would rather risk an electoral wipeout than back Kevin Rudd as leader, despite his popularity with voters. A Sunday Age survey of the 20 members of Parliament with the slimmest margins around the country found just five intended to support the former prime minister in tomorrow's caucus ballot, with some predicting Mr Rudd's popularity would evaporate were he returned to office" (see "We prefer defeat to Rudd: MPs", The Age, 24 February 2012: http://www.theage.com.au/opinion/political-news/we-prefer-defeat-to-rudd-mps-20120225-1tvfn.html ).

The endlessly subversive, Zionist-beholden US opposed Rudd because Kevin Rudd clearly wanted out of Iraq: had reservations about the Afghan War; unsuccessfully demanded US elimination of the US-restored, Taliban-destroyed Afghan opium industry that has killed 3,700 Australians , 18,000 Brits and 200,000 Americans since 2001; pledged full Australian consular support for WikiLeaks' Julian Assange and said the US not Assange was to blame for the Wikileaks leaks, despite Gillard condemnation of Assange; and in general Rudd put Australian interests before those of the US or Apartheid Israel. The Coup plotters included  US "assets" according  to Wikileaks and John Pilger (see "John Pilger: "John Pilger: Threat to Assange is a threat to us all", Green Left Weekly: http://www.greenleft.org.au/node/49948  ).

The largely foreign-owned mining corporations only had to spend $22 million to destroy Rudd and Labor in 2010. Thus Peter Hartcher (in  "Give us $52m, and we will decide who runs the country", The Sydney Morning Herald, 2 February 2011: http://www.smh.com.au/opinion/politics/give-us-52m-and-we-will-decide-who-runs-the-country-20110201-1aceo.html ): "It is a lot of money, but $22 million to dispatch a prime minister and save billions in taxes was a bargain. Massive advertising attacks by sectional interests have successfully frustrated two major reforms and helped dispatch the past two prime ministers. This week we learnt how cheaply it can be accomplished, with the disclosure that the mining industry spent just $22 million to get its way."

And then there are the Zionists who were  furious with Rudd for giving Apartheid Israel a slap on the wrist for massive forging of Australian passports for terrorist purposes and the violent kidnapping of 5 Australian citizens in international waters (see outstanding  anti-racist Jewish Australian writer Antony Loewenstein, "Does the Zionist Lobby have blood on its hands in Australia?": http://antonyloewenstein.com/2010/07/02/does-the-zionist-lobby-have-blood-on-its-hands-in-australia/ and Gideon Polya, "Pro-Zionist-led Coup ousts Australian PM Rudd", MWC News, 29 June 2010: http://mwcnews.net/focus/politics/3488-pro-zionist-led-coup.html ). Indeed the Labor Government has rewarded Apartheid Israel by spending $349 million to put Apartheid Israel at the heart of Australian defence command and control (see "Pro-Zionist, Islamophobic Apartheid Australia signs $349 million "defence" deal with Apartheid Israel", Bellaciao, 17 March 2010: http://bellaciao.org/en/spip.php?article19627 ). Rudd has continued to annoy the rabid Zionists by proposing that Australia abstain from the UN vote to recognize Palestinian statehood – whereas  Zionist-backed, pro-Zionist PM Gillard over-ruled him and ordered that Australia join with racist US and Apartheid Israel and vote no

The US has intervened previously to destroy Labor PM Gough Whitlam (1975), to ensure defeat of the Labor Opposition leader Mark Latham in the 2004 elections, and to back the Rudd dismissal in 2010. At least this time round  Rudd has had 3 days to campaign for the leadership but the US- and Zionist-beholden Mainstream media (US-owned Australian newspapers have 75% of the Australian readership) simply won't report these Elephant in the Room realities. Come midday Monday it is likely that traitorous racist Zionists with a prime loyalty to a genocidal nuclear terrorist rogue state, the largely foreign-owned mining corporations and the subversive neocon Americans and their "assets" will be laughing all the way to the bank - and Labor will be utterly finished.

I variously sent versions of the following letter to Labor MPs, other MPs and media several days ago:

START LETTER: “Dear etc,

Why US- , Zionist- and foreign corporation-backed PM Julia Gillard must go: 66,000 preventable Australian deaths annually.

The bottom-line criterion for government legitimacy is the health and safety of its citizens but each year 66,000 Australians die preventably, the categories including hospital adverse events (18,000), smoking (15,500), carbon-burning pollution-derived deaths (10,000), Indigenous Australian avoidable deaths (9,000),  obesity-related deaths (6,000), alcohol-related deaths (3,000), suicides (2,100), road deaths (1,400), opiate drug-related deaths due to US Alliance restoration of the Taliban-destroyed Afghan opium industry (360) and homicides (300, with about 40% of victims being female).

In June 2010 popularly elected Australian PM Kevin Rudd was deposed in a US- , Zionist- and foreign mining company-backed Coup that was led by the extreme pro-Zionist faction of Labor. Outstanding Australian journalist John Pilger has reported the WikiLeaks-revealed US hostility to Rudd's reservations about the Afghan War. Outstanding Jewish Australian writer Antony Loewenstein has described the Zionist role in Rudd's downfall in “Does the Zionist Lobby have blood on its hands in Australia ?” The largely foreign mining companies spent $23 million in 2010 opposing the Mining Tax.

66,000 preventable  Australian deaths annually means that pro-coal, pro-gas, anti-environment, pro-war, pro-Zionist and slavishly pro-US PM Julia Gillard must go.

Yours sincerely,

Dr Gideon Polya (contact details).

PPS. Australia 's most eminent and  famous Jewish figure, Sir Isaac Isaacs, the first Australian-born Governor General of Australia , stated (1946): “ The honour of Jews throughout the world demands the renunciation of political Zionism ”. See “Jews Against Racist Zionism”: (see: https://sites.google.com/site/jewsagainstracistzionism/home ) for similar views of outstanding anti-racist Jews against racist Zionism, an Apartheid Israel and the Palestinian Genocide (0.1 million violent Palestinian deaths and 1.9 Palestinian avoidable deaths from war-, expulsion and occupation-derived deprivation since 1936; 7 million Palestinian refugees; 0.8 million Palestinian children abusively confined in what the Catholic Church has described as the Gaza Concentration Camp; 4.3 million Occupied Palestinians with essentially no human rights under highly abusive military rule; out of 12 million Palestinians only about half are permitted to live in their own country and only the adults of 1.5 million Palestinian Israelis are permitted to vote for the government ruling all of Palestine, albeit as Third Class citizens under race-based laws).”. END LETTER.

What can decent Australians do?  Decent Australians will vote 1 Green and put Labor last until it reverts to decent, Australia-first values and will urge and support Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions  (BDS) against  Apartheid Israel and all countries, corporations, people, politicians and parties supporting this race-based, racist, genocidal, nuclear terrorist, racist Zionist-run, nuclear terrorist rogue state that together  with the US has successfully subverted Labor, the Coalition, Australian Mainstream media and the cowardly , taxpayer-funded ABC (see "Boycott Apartheid Israel": http://sites.google.com/site/boycottapartheidisrael/ ) , "Boycott Murdoch Media": https://sites.google.com/site/boycottmurdochmedia/ , "ABC Censorship": https://sites.google.com/site/abccensorship/ , "Censorship by The Age": https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/censorship-by-the-age , and "Mainstream Media lying": https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammedialying/ ).

Crucially, Australia and other Western countries are already no longer proper democracies – they are Murdochracies (Big Money buys truth public perception and votes) and Lobbyocracies (Big Money buys politicians, parties,  policies, public perception and voters). There needs to be transparency is dealings of foreign countries, foreign corporations and their lobbyists with politicians. In particular, as unsuccessfully advocated by John Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, the Zionists need to be registered as agents of a foreign country. Indeed the racist Zionists need to be sidelined from public life as have been like racist such as the Nazis, neo-Nazis, Apartheiders and KKK.

Time is running out for Rudd, Labor and democracy in corporate-, US- and Zionist-subverted Australia . It may already be too late for your country too.
