Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Wed, 02/06/2010 - 6:29pm

MEDIA RELEASE, 2 June, 2010 - Stand Fast, the Australian-based veterans group which is comprised of veterans and former military personnel who oppose the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, is calling on all people of conscience to protest the upcoming visit of Barack Obama in mid-June.

"Why should we welcome a war criminal?" asked Stand Fast spokesperson and East Timor veteran, Hamish Chitts. "Obama is not a force for progress, he is not a man of peace - from his first day in office he has firmly placed himself in the camp of the warmongers and war-profiteers."

Charlie Sheen to Obama: Investigate 9/11 Openly

Submitted by Steve Edwards on Mon, 14/09/2009 - 9:47pm
