Democracy and political systems

Democracy is a brainwashing term used by the most cunning societal leaders of all to deceive thier citizen-slaves that they enjoy "freedom" and that thier society is "good", or at least better than, other societies.
Democracy is a sham, an illusion, and has no legitimacy in Truth. There is no such thing as a legitimate democracy.

The only actual and meaningful types of society are :
1. Truth-based.
2. Lie-based

All human societies today and through-out history have been lie-based. There is not a single Truth-based society in existance.

After nine months of media allegation, finger pointing based purely on hear-say, speculation surrounding the reasons behind the arrest of the four Rio Tinto’s executives in Shanghai on the 5th July 2009, the truth about the actual background of the arrest has finally out weighted the disinformation relentlessly generated by the mainstream media in Australia.

We now know that:

“The 2010 federal election is an opportunity for the Aboriginal community to pass judgment on the Rudd government’s policies on Indigenous affairs,” Sam Watson, Murri community leader and Socialist Alliance lead Senate candidate for Queensland, said on 21 April.

“In 2007, the Howard government was thrown out of office because of popular opposition to its policies on many issues. It is unlikely that Rudd is in real danger of losing power, but there still needs to be a protest vote right across the Aboriginal community against the racist policies of the federal Labor government.

in this posting i wish to firstly discuss the qld greens, and others, call for a royal commission and other related issues and then to follow the townsville bulletin article (below) to then make comment on a guardian (uk) article (below) looking at black deaths by police in that country but focusing on the restraints used by the police that caused the victims to die like our brother in townsville a few days ago.

On Wednesday, April 14, more than 100 local people, led by three Aboriginal Traditional Owners, held a peaceful demonstration in the contested logging area of Mumbulla mountain on the far south coast of New South Wales. Mumbulla Mountain is sacred to the Yuin people and stronghold of the last koalas in the region between Bermagui and Bega. Logging of Mumbulla Forest koala habitat near Bega started on 29th March 2010. The traditional owners present said "We, the traditional owners of Mumbulla Mountain, are distressed that woodchip logging is taking place on part of our sacred land. The land should be handed over to us to care for it, our sacred sites and the animals that live here. We need to preserve it for our culture and our future generations."

This week we saw hefty fines of $70,000 handed out to three foreign sailors from a bulk carrier, the MV Mimosa, which was caught travelling through restricted waters of the Great Barrier Reef off north Queensland. Also in the news was the arrest and charging of the master and the chief officer on watch of the Shen Neng 1, which ran aground on the Douglas shoal causing damage in a restricted area of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.
