HIV-Negative AIDS: is it CFS, ME, GWS, or AIDS?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Sat, 31/05/2014 - 6:57pm

Allied NATO Government is hiding millions of NON HIV AIDS cases (like mine) under the "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)" ICD-code.

- Dr. Lorraine Day on Cptn. Joyce Riley's military show THE POWER HOUR (09/12): "...HIV-Negative AIDS cases falsely reported and treated as CFS cases may be one of the biggest cover-ups we’ve ever seen..."

- In 1992 (i.e., after Gulf War 1) "...Newsweek made an even more shocking announcement: …CFS patients who had the same immune system deficiencies as the NON-HIV AIDS cases..."

Open Letter: WGAR advocates long-term funding for Aboriginal community controlled organisations

Submitted by WGAR - Working ... on Thu, 29/05/2014 - 1:18pm

Dear P.M,

We wish to formally register our opposition to the drastic cuts to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander programs in the 2014 Federal budget.

The Coalition’s Intervention in this country is still traumatising communities. Therefore the budget cuts further compound the oppression and defeat any chance of Self-determination.

If this is the Coalition’s intention we sincerely advise that the Coalition desists and takes a more Humanitarian approach to this country’s First Nations Peoples, consistent with International U.N Human Rights standards.

How BBC manufactured the perception of a "Massacre" without having to show their viewers a single chip of a dead person

Submitted by Wei Ling Chua on Wed, 28/05/2014 - 10:17pm

Despite the 2011 WikiLeaks leaked US government cable and the 2009 confession made by BBC journalist James Miles that he had "conveyed the wrong impression" and that there was no one killed in Tiananmen Square in 1989. A simply search on BBC website using the term ‘Tiananmen Massacre’ will revealed that the BBC has continued to use the term ‘Tiananmen Square Massacre’ in all kind of occasions to demonise the Chinese government.

Stonings and Honour Killings - what you need to know!

Submitted by ACADP on Wed, 28/05/2014 - 3:47pm

The stoning death of a pregnant Pakistani woman has shocked the world, but hers is far from being an isolated case. Here is what you need to know about stonings and 'honour killings'.

Islamic leaders of the world must publicly and loudy condemn this mostly misogynist barbarity of stoning and 'honour killing'. So far, the silence has been deafening, while these brutal practices continue.

I escaped going to the detention centre on Xmass island by hitching a ride with a indonesian fishing vessel & then I swam ashore towards broome, I told some aboriginals near broome that I was a refugee from Sri Lanka & they told me not to tell anyone I was a refugee from sri lanka, tell people you are a aboriginal, I did what they said & I managed to get to perth & from perth I flew to sydney, now in sydney I have a job & I share a home with a black family, I am very happy here.
