Tony Blair has true to form come to George Bush's rescue by trying to divert
the human rights community's attention with the Darfur civil war ;

desperate to keep the European & global media away from George Bush's
bungled use of the American FBI to keep Antonius Wamang and 11 other Papuan
witnesses out of the US courts and media ;

desperate to keep the world media from asking WHY did the Australian
government fly 43 indigenous West Papuan asylum seekers who used their
traditional canoe to cross from the Australian continental island of Papua
to the Commonwealth of Australia mainland last week.

Three governments & one military all employed to protect a cartel and its
colonial exploitation of countries under military occupation.
The United States, Australia, and Indonesia all dancing to the tune to
protect the Indonesian military (TNI) and US Indonesia Society cartel from
global media and international law against genocide and other human rights
abuses such as the 4th Geneva Conventions against populating a foreign
nation while it is still under military occupation ;

sure, Israel allowed 20,000 settlers to move into such areas ;
but, Indonesia paid 6,000,000 Javanese settlers to colonize over a dozen
countries under Javanese military occupation, moving a million Asian
settlers into West Papua where hundreds of thousands of indigenous
aboriginals have been killed by the Indonesian military so that
Freeport McMoRan & the other members of the
US Indonesia Society cartel such as Bechtel can mine West Papua in the
fastest most dirty fashion possible so as to steal the most before the law
catches up with this U.S. colonial genocide for profit.

re: exploitation by colonialism has never died

I can't argue, other then to cynically accept the ugliness/harshness of
reality as awful as it seemingly is.

Immorality is a relative, subjective value.

Some people (a friend) think it immoral to run their dishwashers
(use-up much water).

As the USD $U.S. grapples in fear/debt/backing, gold has re-gained
luster.

Thus, mining for the barbaric metal ensues barbarically.

My father-in-law fought in the harsh, mosquito-ridden
New Guinea jungle in WW II, and my wife jokes about kin (possibly)
there now: He suffered from a blood disease thereafter amongst other
afflictions.

So our cousins may be getting
ripped-off by ... us.

David Wallachinsky has at <parade.com> a list of the "worst dictators"
in the current world.

His PEOPLES ALMANAC tells the inside skinny/scurvy of
governments/countries, and ye who seek to know more of the kind of
bloody awfulness that Hugo is describing herein, impugning the
Indonesian-U.S.--U.K. establishments, may be as fascinated as this alta
cocker.

Meanwhile, Tony Blair would handily finesse such villification as I've
seen his debate/answers in
Parliament on C-SPAN
