The struggle for Palestinian liberation continues to develop in interesting
ways.
Obviously and quite consciously the action is inspired by Civil Rights
struggle in the 50's
I think that the Arab spring is important as a source of inspiration .

Re: [Marxism] "Cuba does not recognize the Transitional National Council"

It seems contradictory that Cuba was OK about maintaining a relationship with
the Ghaddafi regime while it slaughtered innocent citizens and cooperated with
the CIA and MI6 in accepting rendition victims for torturing as part
and parcel of its
support for the imperialists' war on terror.

Of course the details of this side of Libya's pro-imperialist stance
has been revealed in documents just discovered -but that's the sort of
thing that happens when a revolution shines a light in dark
corners.The Bolsheviks published the secret diplomacy of the the
overthrown regime. I look forward to more being uncovered through the
victory of Libyan people.

[Marxism] YouTube - ‪Rebekah Brooks admits to paying police‬‏

[Greg Adler]

==
Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message.
==


This amazing you tube clip shows Rebekah Brooks the editor of the soon to be
defunct
News of the World admitting to a Parliamentary committe that NOTW had paid
police for
information in the past with her then boss Andy Coulson desperately moving
to cover
up by saying the payments only happened within the law.
A nonsense defence as paying police for information is illegal. The Murdoch
petrified parliamentarians
allow this to pass on by.
Coulson went on to become the spokesman for the Tory government under David
Cameron. Cameron defended
him as the phone hacking scandal spread from royals to politicians and
celebrities finally cutting him loose a
couple of months ago.
Now the expectation is that Coulson is to be arrested.
Brooks has been kept on as a buffer to be sacrificed if necessary to
keep the heat off Murdoch and
his son James who runs the UK operations and seems to be his preferred
succesor.
The closure of NOTW this weekend comes as major advertisers have deserted
it. Already News
has copyrighted the Sunday Sun name so the dead paper can be replaced by a
seventh day
edition of the the Murdoch-owned Sun.This maybe remembers as the rag that
greeted the sinking
of the  Belgrano in the Malvinas War with the full frontpage headline
GOTCHA.
The other thing playing on the Murdochs minds is their bid to gain complete
ownership of the BSkyB
network-a sort of British version of Fox news  without the hysterical
Beck-O'Reilly-Hannity-Palin edge.

I, dear reader, am the former SLLer referred to below.
The whole story would be quite long but the relevant details are:
1)On a few hours notice I replaced another leading member of the
SLL (ie the Australian Socialist Labour League) to travel as a journalist to

attend a meeting in Iraq.

2)I was instructed to seek $100,000 from the Iraqis with a view to
purchasing a printing press.

3)I travelled with a person of Lebanese background who was sympathetic to
the Baath Party
and had an Arabic language newspaper in Sydney.

4)He made it clear to me that he hade his own requests to make to the Iraqis
. I saw high level people
only in company with him.

5)In one of the meetings a fairly high official made it clear that he and
others were dismayed by the
handful of votes received by Vanessa Redgrave-they had been led to have much
greater expectations as to the
strength of the WRP. I assured the official that the 100 or so votes had
been class conscious votes.
He did not seem to be impressed by that.

At no time did it seem to be the remotest possibilty of getting a 100
cents-so I never sought the press money.

I find Joaquins posts educative and interesting even if I don't always agree
with
him. But I think he is off track here. Many white people revere him for all
the wrong reasons
(eg Attenbrough's "Ghandi".

And many millions of Indians do not revere him at all.

The people of Pakistan who were Indians throughout most of Ghandis life
certainly do
not revere him.

Muslims still within India do not revere him.

The millions of untouchables-who Ghandi opposed having their own political
power- do not revere him.

Even those who claim to revere him such as Congress in fact scarcely give
lip service to him
rejecting non-violence in practice-rejecting his economic ideas in theory
and practice and
happily miring themselves in coruption and cronyism.

Finally he was killed by a Hindu extremist.

I think its highly likely that Ghandi is more revered by some non-Indians
than he is by
many Indians.

Very interesting to contrast the braying of Obama in the sotu address
claiming to support the
Tunisian people to the support for Mubarak and the claiming of him as a good
friend.
The downfall of Mubarak would open a serious problem for the continued
blockade of Gaza
and put the whole imperialist settlement in the "middle east" in real
danger.

The vile regimes of Saudi Arabia and Jordan would be prime targets for
similar developments
with Fatah  coming up close behind.
