WE SAY NO TO #US #FOREVERWARS
By #Greens Senator #DavidShoebridge
As you will have already seen on your TV screens and social media feeds, the US and #Israel earlier this month launched an #illegalWar on #Iran. It is a devastating escalation, particularly for people across the #MiddleEast who for weeks now have been subjected to continuous bombing.
This should be a moment for #Australia to take a clear stand. To stand on the side of #humanity and #internationalLaw and make it clear we do not support #Trump and #Netanyahu’s illegal war.
Instead, the #Albanese #Labor Government, cheered along by the #Liberals and #OneNation, has committed Australia to another disastrous US-led forever war.
By deploying #Australian personnel to the Middle East and deepening our involvement, Labor is repeating the same catastrophic mistakes of the past. For decades, we have seen the consequences of being tied to the United States’ military machine. #Iraq. #Afghanistan. #Vietnam.
Wars that promised security and delivered destruction. Yet the Labor government remains unwilling to learn from that history.
Rather than charting an independent #defence and foreign policy grounded in #peace and de-escalation, they are choosing to double down on military alignment with the Trump-led US.
And that alignment runs deeper than many Australians realise.
Australia’s integration with the US military and the US industrial base has gone further than most people would expect. We host #USBases on our soil like #PineGap and #NWCape that are critical to US global warfighting. We buy billions of dollars worth of US weapons and have designed our entire military to be “interoperable” with the US.
We have hundreds of Australian personnel embedded throughout the US military. This includes three Australian personnel on the US nuclear submarine that sank an Iranian frigate and left the survivors to drown. Labor plans to have Australians make up 10% of all personnel on US nuclear submarines by 2030, allegedly as preparation for #AUKUS.
That is the reality of AUKUS. It locks Australia’s military into the US chain of command and draws us into US military actions before the public, or even Parliament, has had the chance to have a say.
Which raises a simple question. Who decides when Australia goes to war?
Right now, it is a decision made behind closed doors by a handful of politicians. In fact Australia can be sent to war with the decision being made by just the Prime Minister and Defence Minister.
That is why the Greens’ push for #WarPowers reform is more urgent than ever. We have introduced a new law that would require a #vote of #Parliament before Australians are sent into any overseas #conflict, and we forced it to be debated in parliament this week.
If lives are on the line, it should be the Parliament that millions of Australians elect, not a handful of government Ministers, who make that call.
At the same time as conflict abroad escalates, the Labor government is closing Australia’s door to people who are desperately in need of protection.
In a stark display of tripartisanship, the war parties of Labor, the Liberals and One Nation have come together to pass laws to refuse up to 7,200 #Iranians who already have valid Australian #visas from coming to Australia. The express reason they did this was so none of them could do what members of the Iranian women's football team did, come on shore and make an asylum claim.
It is the height of hypocrisy.
As all this chaos rolls out, instead of calling for peace, Labor has cheered the war on and sent 85 military personnel and hardware into the US warzone. Then they change the law to prevent people fleeing places like Iran from finding safety here. These measures go so far as to block people of certain nationalities from even applying for a visa, punishing individuals for the actions of regimes they are trying to escape.
We must not be a country that profits from and promotes conflict abroad, then turns its back on those displaced by it.
#TheGreens are the only party in Parliament willing to stand against this approach and speak and vote for peace not war. We are the only ones calling for a foreign policy grounded in human rights, international law, genuine independence and the core needs of the Australian people.
We say no to US forever wars and the war parties. We say yes to peace and cooperation. We say no to secret decisions to send Australians into conflict and yes to giving the Australian people a say over this war and every other war. We say yes to a defence policy that defends Australia and does not threaten our neighbours, as part of a broader commitment to genuine human security that is far broader than just guns, bombs and missiles. #auspol #uspol #TrumpRegime #RogueNation
Il Tempo: Roma, Salis: gravissimo controllo subìto senza neppure sapere motivi
Roma, 28 mar. (askanews) - Dal corteo in corso a Roma contro guerre e riarmo, Ilaria Salis, eurodeputata di Alleanza Verdi e Sinistra, denuncia "gli accertamenti" effettuati stamane nei suoi confronti in albergo, nelle ore precedenti alla manifestazione, definendoli un episodio "gravissimo". Nel suo intervento collega la mobilitazione alla difesa del diritto internazionale e dell'autodeterminazione dei popoli, annunciando iniziative per chiarire fino in fondo la vicenda.
"Questa mattina sono stata svegliata - ha detto Salis - per non meglio specificati accertamenti che si sono prolungati più di un'ora anche dopo che io ho fatto presente che sono una parlamentare. Poi ho appreso che la Questura di Roma ha dichiarato che questi controlli non erano da collegarsi alla manifestazione di oggi, bensì erano da collegarsi a una segnalazione che proverrebbe da un Paese terzo, da un Paese estero. Questo, di fatto, rende quello che è accaduto ancora ancora più grave perché non siamo di fronte a un'iniziativa della Questura di Roma, ma a un'iniziativa internazionale, un'iniziativa europea di un Paese che si permette di mettere in dubbio quelle che sono le prerogative di una parlamentare che è stata eletta da 178.000 cittadini italiani e questo è un fatto estremamente grave perché vogliamo andare fino in fondo in questa storia, per cui attiveremo tutti i canali, tutte le possibilità anche a livello istituzionale, per affinché non si ripetano più fatti del genere che sono gravissimi perché come oggi succede a me, domani potrei succedere a chiunque dei miei colleghi".
"Siamo qui - ha aggiunto - per manifestare contro le guerre che ci sono nel mondo e contro gli imperialismi che le scatenano, perché noi non vogliamo un mondo di sfere di influenza, noi vogliamo un mondo in cui i popoli si possano autodeterminare, possano cooperare e vogliamo difendere i principi più basilari del diritto internazionale che oggi sono messi continuamente in discussione".
Rome, Salis: extremely serious control carried out without even knowing the reasons.
Rome, March 28 (askanews) - From the procession taking place in Rome against wars and a new arms race, Ilaria Salis, Member of the European Parliament for the Greens and Left Alliance, denounces “the investigations” carried out against her this morning in her hotel, the hours before the demonstration, describing them as a “serious” incident. In her speech, she links the mobilization to the defense of international law and the self-determination of peoples, announcing initiatives to fully clarify the affair.
“This morning I was woken up – Salis said – for unspecified investigations that lasted more than an hour even after I pointed out that I am a Member of Parliament. Then I learned that the Rome Police Headquarters had stated that these checks were not to be linked to today’s demonstration, but were to be linked to a report coming from a third country, from a foreign country. This, in fact, makes what happened even more serious because we are not facing an initiative by the Rome Police Headquarters, but an international initiative, a European initiative of a country that dares to doubt the prerogatives of a Member of Parliament who was elected by 178,000 Italian citizens and this is an extremely serious fact because we want to go all the way in this story, so we will activate all the channels, all the possibilities, even at an institutional level, so that such things do not happen again because as happens to me today, tomorrow it could happen to anyone of my colleagues.”
“We are here – she added – to demonstrate against the wars in the world and against the imperialism that triggers them, because we do not want a world of spheres of influence, we want a world in which peoples can self-determine, can cooperate and we want to defend the basic principles of international law that are constantly being questioned today.”
