From the website of March in March Australia 2014 The Purpose: The purpose of March in March Australia 2014 is to provide the people of Australia with the opportunity to come together to protest a unity vote of no confidence in the Abbott Government over the weekend of 15th & 16th March, culminating in a march on Parliament House in Canberra on Monday 17th March 2014. This signifies the people’s vote of no confidence in policies of the government that go against common principles of humanity, decency, fairness social justice and equity, democratic governance, responsible global citizenship and conserving our natural heritage. marchinmarch.au/about-march-in-march/ All very laudable, even Abe Lincoln would be proud FROM THE CHARTER OF THE INTERNATIONAL MILITARY TRIBUNAL Section 6 The following acts, or any of them, are crimes coming within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal for which there shall be individual responsibility: (a) Crimes Against Peace: namely, planning, preparation, initiation or waging of a war of aggression, or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, or participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the foregoing; (b) War Crimes: namely, violations of the laws or customs of war. Such violations shall include, but not be limited to, murder, ill-treatment or deportation to slave labor or for any other purpose of civilian population of or in occupied territory, murder or ill-treatment of prisoners of war or persons on the seas, killing of hostages, plunder of public or private property, wanton destruction of cities, towns or villages, or devastation not justified by military necessity; Leaders, organisers, instigators and accomplices participating in the formulation or execution of a common plan or conspiracy to commit any of the foregoing crimes are responsible for all acts performed by any persons in execution of such plan. derechos.org/nizkor/nuremberg/judgment/ncharter.html The principles of humanity, decency, fairness social justice and equity, democratic governance, responsible global citizenship and conserving our natural heritage espoused by the March in March organisers are laudable aims and if the organisers are men and women of principle above party politics and there concerns are only those that they have stated then the issue of primary importance that must be addressed before all others can be considered is holding those responsible for the unspeakable horrors of genocide accountable, I am sure you will agree. A government can commit no greater crime than to deceive its own people in launching of a preemptive war of aggression that has resulted in the unnecessary and unjustifiable loss of life of Australian servicemen and women and caused immeasurable grief and suffering for their families and the misery and destruction associated with the more than 1.5 million innocents that have been sadistically murdered and butchered as Julian Assange has exposed for the world to see, a person that Labor PM at the time Julia GIllard labelled a criminal, projecting her own complicity in genocide onto a man of whom she is not fit to breathe the same air. What is more important, more precious than human life, that these psychopaths treat with utter disdain? Where is the shame, the guilt? Over one million people have been murdered and in our name. Yes we should March, yes we should hold our representatives on both sides of the political divide responsible. None of them are fit to represent the good people of this country, they are a disgrace to humanity and everything that is decent in this world. I will retract all criticisms and gladly participate in an advent that advances the cause of humanity, decency, fairness social justice and equity, democratic governance, responsible global citizenship and conserving our natural heritage that you advocate and will be reminding tomorrows participants of the seriousness and urgency that this must be dealt with to restore faith in our parliamentary system and elected officials Sincerely David Dieni
