A CALL TO BOYCOTT ISRAELI PRODUCTS:
By Uli Schmetzer
ROVIGNO, June 6, 2010 - In the wake of Israel’s deadly raid on unarmed peace activists and its continued blockade of Gaza the time has come to express international indignation by a citizens’ boycott of Israeli goods.
Fair Work Australia this week lifted the minimum wage by $26 a week or 69c an hour. The minimum wage is now $15 an hour or $569.90 per week. Whilst the agreement was greeted by the ACTU as a very good outcome for working Australians, it actually represents a cut in real wages, the 4.8 percent increase is below the official Consumer Price Index, which has risen 5.4 percent over the past 21 months since the last rise.
According to a a report in The Age Australian activist Ahmed Luqman Talib. The 20 year old was shot in the leg during the Israeli raid and according to his father "left to bleed" for 12 hours, resulting in severe blood loss. He is currently in intensive care in Istanbul. His wife Jerry Campbell, 22, and sister Maryam, 18, also report mistreatment.
Next weekend Australians will once again be celebrating the Queen’s Birthday with a public holiday. It is ironical a page in Australian history that occurs around the same time that is far more significant for Australians than the Queen’s Birthday will be largely ignored by Australians.

Friends of the Earth have accused Xstrata of using the Rudd Government's Resource Profits Tax as a scapegoat to cover up for their own poor planning with regard to the Wandoan coal project that has now been placed on hold.
It was reported in the The Age today that Timor Leste was prepared to stand up to the combined bullying of the Australian company Woodside and the Australian Government and leave gas in the ground “for generations” under the Timor Seaif necessary until Timor could get a fair deal over where the gas is processed.
Tasmanian environment groups will join with communities around the country tomorrow to voice concerns in a nationwide Day of Action against the burning of native-forest products in power stations to generate electricity.
Wood-fired power generators would adversely impact Tasmania’s clean, clever brand and represent a major new threat to both high conservation-value forests and the ability to reach agreement around a lasting solution to the forestry crisis in Tasmania.
