Australia

Concerned about WW3? The time is NOW!

Australia couldn't have chosen a worse time to be president of the UN Security Council in its temporary role there. Its main ally, the USA, is avidly seeking another war, this time with SYRIA. Australia's prime minister until the September election, Kevin Rudd, is brazenly advocating an attack on Syria and last year, the foreign minister, Bob Carr, exhorted the assassination of Syria's president Bashar al-Assad ( http://www.indymedia.org.au/2012/10/13/bob-carr-the-intended-assassinati... ).

Honduras in Australia, Without Borders

A collaborative piece between seven..

On 13 July 2013, in Sydney, we met at hollis park to ride our bicycles through Redfern down to Enmore park. Amongst all the voices there are there is one voice, the things said now, and to say those things we used our fingers where paintbrushes would go, and we painted a banner because our world is a world of words and on that sign we said, Plunders and murders stop 4 years of coup in Honduras.
