- Syd, As I have mentioned Sunday, July 17, 2011 @ 11:44PMIn reply to Are These Rebels Our Friends? : Syd, As I have mentioned previously, the intervention in Libya occurred (regardless of ulterior motives) because the Gaddafi regime was deliberately killing civilians. One can apply the same criteria to other interventions - East Timor and Bosnia in particular. One can look at the failure of a lack of intervention - such as in Rwanda. Sometimes ...
- I may be a tad old Sunday, July 17, 2011 @ 11:44PMIn reply to Are These Rebels Our Friends? : I may be a tad old fashioned, Lev. I was under the (apparently) outdated illusion, for instance, that the primary document of the UN was its Charter. It gives States considerable rights to protect themselves against violent, foreign-backed insurgents attempting to seize power by force of arms (Article 2.7). For that reason, I’d naively imagined that if ...
- Syd, I would suggest that Sunday, July 17, 2011 @ 11:44PMIn reply to Are These Rebels Our Friends? : Syd, I would suggest that you have a look at Article 2.7 a little closer, and especially the statement “but this principle shall not prejudice the application of enforcement measures under Chapter VII ”, which deals with the UN Security Council’s allowance to “determine the existence of any threat to the peace, breach of the peace, or act of aggression ...
- Dying forests, coral reefs, Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Dying forests, coral reefs, humans, animals etc, get used to it. Soon enough wind, fire and rain will wash the surface clean again. But for now, who will succeed in proposing a comprehensive and integrated plan that works? Liberals alone? no, Labor alone? no Greens and Independents alone? no. “Time passes slowly up here in the mountains”. Huffin ...
- Normally I am with Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Normally I am with Examinator but this time not - I am with you, PR . While I agree it is worth stopping pollution anywhere in the world, Examinator, we must first do it here - so we know how it’s done - and then do it elsewhere - but with 90% certainty our overseas efforts are effective. Better to be putting in renewable energy plants in ...
- WhyAreThereNeverAnyGoodUserna Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : WhyAreThereNeverAnyGoodUsernamesLeft 18/07/11 4: 09PM I can’t be sure about this but reading the reports in the ENDS Reports it appears that Cameron et al are planning to achieve their target by enabling off-shoring and not including the transport back to the UK . It stands to reason that a small island with so many people is going to have to ...
- Rexy old boy I don’t have Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Rexy old boy I don’t have any goals for anything, I’m simply looking a little wider than my own backyard. As I said it’s all a matter of what is your objective. The *real* problem is that the LCD has a very limited capacity to focus on the reality that issues don’t have have clearly defined impermeable boundaries in that effecting one issue has ...
- Ex I struggle to see any of Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 10:29PMIn reply to The Black Hole In Labor's Carbon Tax : Ex I struggle to see any of your comments justifying the inclusion of an international crediting system riddled with skewed incentives, cheating and fraud. Skewed incentives in particular are not ideology or dogma. Their existence is a fact and responsible for god knows how many problems currently facing the world. You preach winding back on our ...
- The Carbon Tax We Had To Have Sunday, July 10, 2011 @ 11:02PMIn reply to The Carbon Tax We Had To Have : << Ben Eltham explains why the scheme will work >> Well, he doesn’t really. He explains that it will work inasmuch as it will reduce carbon emissions. But to what extent? If it is only going to reduce them by a tiny amount, with no significant increase in that amount in the coming years, then we just can’t say that it will work. It has to work to the ...
- @Christopher_M just google Sunday, July 10, 2011 @ 11:02PMIn reply to The Carbon Tax We Had To Have : @Christopher_M just google MMT . I don’t think what I have written can be only understood by a minority. Mostly I was complaining that NM is not an alternative blog. As Tad states, a true alternative point a view should resist the dominant neoliberal discourse. The author, in his responses, kind of demonstrates the power of this discourse, he is ...

- Very interesting, you guys, Wednesday, June 29, 2011 @ 11:20PMIn reply to SBS To Go Back To Where It Came From? : Very interesting, you guys, though I am waiting for Dr Who to reveal who did kill Kennedy. Never forget what Maggie Thatcher’s spin doctor Bernard Ingham (I assume he is not a distant relative, David?)once told Pommy journos - in the choice between a conspiracy and a cock up in government, go for the cock-up. But connaust makes a good point ...
- There have already been Wednesday, June 29, 2011 @ 11:20PMIn reply to SBS To Go Back To Where It Came From? : There have already been programs about conspiracy theories. The most recent is Jesse Ventura’s series on US cable TV . I think SBS could do it better, but its more the ABC ’s thing anyway. And they WOULD do it better. Oliver’s comment shows that while we all worry about what’s going on behind the scenes, all some viewers want is programs they ...
- Exammy Am at a loss as to Tuesday, June 21, 2011 @ 10:05PMIn reply to Reality TV Gets Real : Exammy Am at a loss as to how the producers could’ve done any better. Despite the care, things could’ve gone arse up. As for the participants - you know as well as I from a certain online opinion site, many people still think like young Raquel. No camera work hid the reality of the camps or the refugees walking in them. The only footage that was hidden was ...
- TV Junkie: Critics' Choice Boring TV Awards; 'The Killing' Finale Was A-OK Monday, June 20, 2011 @ 5:48PMThe Critics' Choice TV awards were held today? Predictable and boring were the results. --- Other "critics" are up-in-arms about last night's "The Killing" finale on AMC but if they had done a bit of research and had open minds, they'd see there's nothing to be upset about. --- Some great late night TV is on tonight, paticularly "Chelsea Lately" and Jimmy Fallon's show.

- Oh and I forgot to say it Thursday, May 19, 2011 @ 10:28PMIn reply to Bob Brown v The Press : Oh and I forgot to say it (journalism) must also be a ‘balanced’ (presenting at least two varying opinions) and interpretations of those cold, hard facts. And that journalism should stop trying to take a position (or forming an opinion) and just inform us honestly by presenting all the different sides fairly.
- Alex, I catch the thread and Thursday, May 19, 2011 @ 10:28PMIn reply to Bob Brown v The Press : Alex, I catch the thread and my concern is that the climate change issue and the restriction of global resources is the perfect hotbed for fascism. We are facing a horrible scenario in Australia, which doesn’t make us a laughing stock: it makes us look dangerous. The Lib/Lab Coalition have so moved us to the right that the worst in human nature is surfacing ...

- Great article, Ben! So the Thursday, May 19, 2011 @ 10:23PMIn reply to Bob Brown v The Press : Great article, Ben! So the mild-mannered non-reporter is fighting the wordsters back, eh? If Gillard won’t do it, why shouldn’t the super-cool Mr Brown. I haven’t got a family either - or - at least that’s what unmarried adults with no dependent children are told.

- Mary, David Point taken, Wednesday, April 20, 2011 @ 8:35PMIn reply to Journalism Needs Courage : Mary, David Point taken, about my lack of brevity and there’s the rub. We bucket the mass media for being sensationalising and not informative and omitting the important context and or consequences of their reporting. I agree in principle with the notion that truly independent journalism is, or should be an aspirational goal not an achievable reality. On ...
- Writing the first draft is Wednesday, April 20, 2011 @ 8:35PMIn reply to Journalism Needs Courage : Writing the first draft is often a process of figuring out what we think. And we often have so many things to figure out that we don’t ever get the time to rewrite the second succincter draft.
- The current concentration of Wednesday, April 20, 2011 @ 8:35PMIn reply to Journalism Needs Courage : The current concentration of mass media ownership, and govt collusion on that ownership, acts against the effectiveness of good journalism by exclusion. Nonetheless good journalism is still needed as a conduit through which a memory of quality practice can be revived if, in the future, Australia has a free and open mass media.
