@catveezle Pilger is almost a saint the jews will tell you otherwise because he objects to the jew theft and tactics in disposessing Palestinians' homes, farms, land & livelihood using the state army as a mechanism so all jews are implicated by consenting and living on seized lands.

[catveezle]

what a lying old bastard he is.

We have already had the Bilderberger vunderkinder Bush out here,his presence in Parliament insulted us. Howard silenced all dissenters. Obama is Bilderberger approved also (both Clintons are Bilderbergers and McCain was approved). All have genuflected before Israel. Obama is just a "porte parole" for the NWO as is Rudd. Now we will be disgraced by having yet another liar out here telling their satellite how we ought to think. Pilger understands, as do I, the reality of why Obama was installed.

Obama is coming to Australia soon.The Australian government will give Michelle Obama a $250,000 dollar hand woven scarf (or something like that).Talk about sucking up. I wonder if the Obama's will get to meet any Aboriginal people of Australia, unfortunately they wont be able to afford such a gift but they can afford them the truth about their discusting treatment.However they shouldn't expect a sympathetic ear if Pilger is correct about Obama.When will the world get "change we can believe in".
