Whitlam Dies - Government Overthrown in Oz by British-USA Cabal

[Magda Hassan]

Pilger has written about this before. Scanning the local papers and news media down here in Australia over the past few days, I saw absolutely nothing written about what Pilger has elaborated on above. No surprise I guess, but Pilger's sharp depiction of what we had, and what we lost, does make me a little sad.

I guess the saddest part is that is seems most in Oz don't know this important history.....and the controlled media are not about to present it to them. I'm sure it is NOT in history/political science books - even at the university level. To find this out, one has to have the inclination to look beyond the propaganda.....

Not just the MSM, which is bad enough but expected given their mocking bird role, but even his own party. They are either deluded by the Murdoch official narrative, or complicit in working against his policies and for US interests, or shit scared of emulating his government in any way perhaps for fear of anther US coup. The 2 Labor PMs who followed him, Hawke and Keating, went to great lengths to show they were nothing like him. Nothing like him at all. And they were nothing like him. They brought in neo-liberal economic policies and started the privatization and broke strikes and collaborated openly with the ruling classes. Things that never would have been accepted if the Tory party had tried to do them. PM Rudd, another reformer of a social democrat Keynesian stripe, was non conformist, visionary and driven like Whitlam and was deposed in a bitter party coup. Which may or may not have had US fingerprints over it. Certainly the main party players behind the party coup had far too close a relationship to the US embassy as disclosed in Wikileaks embassy cables. The current leader of the ALP and potential future PM is one of them.
