Andres Conteris, journalist for Democracy Now has been inside the  Brazilian Embassy with President Zelaya since day one. A month and a half later the one hundred or so inside the Embassy is down to 30. Nevertheless, the commitment to resist the coup regime honestly and calmly is as strong as ever. President Zelaya is counting on the international community not to recognise the illegal, and heavily compromised 'elections' of November 29 to bring some kind of social equity and natural justice to the Honduran people.

Karen Spring with Rights Action talks with community radio about the response of the people to efforts by the coup regime of Honduras, and the US to legitimise the elections of November 29. The Resistance Front claims that conditions for a free and fair election do not exist, and that hold the elections before President Zelaya is reinstated is in contradiction of the spirit agreement signed on October 30. The US appears to be in compliance with the position of the regime.

Toni Solo reflects on the shocking retraction of the US' professed commitment to recognise the November 29 elections in Honduras if President Zelaya is reinstated. De facto president Micheletti signed an agreement brokered by the US to reinstate President Zelaya on October 30, but refused to convene the Honduras Congress to ratify the agreement. President Zelaya is still a virtual prisoner trapped inside the Brazilian Embassy, even though it was assumed that he could resume the Presidential seat after the November 5 deadline.

On the weekend of November 7 the US unexpectedly announced that the US would recognise the November elections, whether Zelaya was reinstated or not  - thus conferring a spurious legitimacy on the regime and dividing the Organisation of American States in its original position of not recognising the elections if Zelaya was not reinstated beforehand.

Ricardo Salgado, Honduran analyst of the 'crisis' in Honduras explains the latest developments. In spite of US pressure on the coup regime to recognise the legitimacy of Zelaya as President ten days ago, the President is still trapped inside the Brazilian Embassy. The 'agreement' (designed more to save face for the US and the coup regime rather than the restoration of a democratic 'solution') has failed. The coup regime has failed to meet the one week deadline to restore Zelaya to his post as President in a reasonable amount of time to allow a 'clean' election process. 

The Resistance Front (according to polls supported by over 70% of the population) has announced that they will not recognised the November 29 elections, and the single opposition candidate, Carlos Reyes, has withdrawn his candidature. If the coup regime goes ahead with the elections it could destabilise the entire region. There is a call for the international community not to recognise the legitimacy of the elections. With the US playing a reluctant role (although one of the key players) in promoting a just resolution to the crisis, the Obama administration may be deferring a small problem until it becomes a big problem.

Toni Solo returns to Nicaragua after a week in Honduras where he has picked up disturbing stories that someone is returning fire on the police. By most accounts the 'gangs' or 'maras' (closely involved with the narcotics trade in Central American countries) guarding their 'turf'  -  but in this case the police were pursuing and firing on a street demonstration that took refuge in a poor neighbourhood, or 'barrio'.  But there was also another armed group defending the demonstrators who were clearly not gang members  - this just a week after a report that a police station had been overrun and weapons taken.

While the demonstrations are well disciplined and strictly non violent, if the coup regime does not respond positively to the deadline offered this October 15  - after 115 days of non violent protest, some elements  might be forgiven for thinking of armed struggle as an option.

While proclaiming to the international community and media that they are 'prepared to negotiate' the coup regime of Honduras has made it obvious that there is one point that they will not negotiate  - that is the reinstatement of President Zelaya, who is sheltering in the Brazilian Embassy. The Micheletti coup regime set up a hydraulic lift with two snipers wearing night goggles on a level with the second story of the Embassy, in a clear attempt at further intimidate the President and his supporters inside.

The President and his supporters in the besieged Brazilian Embassy had high morale and were in good spirits, having just celebrated the birthday of the President's grandchild. He sent a gruff 'Saludos' to community radio in Australia.

But for the people of Honduras the issue now goes far further than reinstating Zelaya. They are demanding the Constitutional reform and determined to defy the suspension of Constitutional guarantees that has unleashed a wave of repression.

The Brazilian Embassy is under siege by the Honduran armed forces who have attempted to cut food supplies, water and electricity, jam communications and set up sound boxes designed to emit high pitched, irritating high decibal noise inside the Embassy grounds.

A week later, and the coup regime has declared a suspension of all constitutional rights and put an ultimatum to the Brazilian government. International reaction to this disturbing move has been disappointingly slow, especially from the US. The toll of casualties is mounting, the latest a woman who died from the effects of the teargas assault on the Brazilian Embassy. Radio Globo is no longer transmitting, but has maintained its internet stream. The Honduran coup regime is reacting hysterically and with typical excessive force against the popular outrage that has only grown over the last three months, with hundreds of thousands, and sometimes millions, of people out in the streets in protest on a daily basis.

Ricardo Salgado is a Honduran, and independent researcher heavily involved in social work in Honduras. He gives us an inside view of the situation there, including the massive marches, occurring almost daily for two months now, and how the movement has grown to the extent that the aspirations of the people go far beyond the return of their elected President, who has been exiled by the coup regime.

The popular Resistance Front is threatening to boycott elections due to be held at the end of November, if their President is not reinstated. The situation becomes more and more tense as the election day draws near. The people now are determined, and prepared for the 'long haul' to see their demands for social justice recognised, and end of the grip on the country held by generations of the 'ten families'.

Toni Solo (of Tortilla con Sal Nicaraguan web magazine) analyses the 65th day of continual protest in Honduras, by hundreds of thousands of protesters almost daily. They are protesting in a non violent way, against the coup regime who abducted their legally elected President and preventing his return. Police and military repression against the non violent protesters is mounting, but going unreported in the mainstream media. The popular resistance has grown so strong that by now, the reinstatement of President Zelaya is just one aspect of a massive demand for social justice. Honduras will never be the same.

The people are maintaining an unremitting resistance to the coup, and there is an emerging understanding thtat the resistance is less about the personality of 'Mel Zelaya'  (the deposed and exiled President), than the will of the people of Honduras, who are just sick and tired of the selfish, egocentric oligarcic elite who resented someone who was willing to raise the minimum wage above subsistence levels and divert a bit of tax money to education and health programs.  Meanwhile the US State Department ducks and weaves when they could stop the neo-fascists in their tracks.

Toni Sola  of Tortilla con Sal  is actively supporting the thousands of Hondurans who are sneaking past the military blockade (and an 18 hour curfew) to support their elected President, 'Mel' Zelaya, who is challenging the de-facto government to let him re-enter his country. Hundreds of thousands of Honduran people have maintained a rage against the coup. The level of popular support for the illegally 'exiled' President has taken all by surprise, including the international community, and the people of Nicaragua. Suddenly over four thousand supporters for Zelaya have poured over the border. With the psychologically unsound levels of military repression occurring within  Honduras, they have become not only  'protestors' but also refugees. A moot point over how they will be defined in the mainstream media.  (apologies for the poor sound quality of the interview taken under difficult conditions).

Grahame Russel, human rights lawyer is in Honduras getting the real story out. The military coup, backed by the oligarchy and elite business community, has been universally condemned, but unlike Tehran the huge houtpouring of popular repudiation of the coup masters and the military, doesn't seem to be making the headlines in mainstream media.

Grahame was present last Sunday when the President of Honduras tried to fly in to return to his country after being bundled out of his residence last week by the military and put on a flight to Costa Rica. Somewhere between one hundred thousand and two hudnred thousand demonstrators turned up at the airport to see the Presidential plane land. Two were shot by the military and another four wounded. After the military placed trucks on the runway and fired shots at the plane after a low pass over the runway the landing was aborted.

He will try again on Wednesday  (Thursday Australian time). The Honduran people are mobilised, the biggest outpouring of popular power in this country since the 1950s.  Honduras is diplomatically isolated, although the US is slow to take decisive action.

Toni covers the Honduran coup. He was there, invited as an international observer, by the Honduran government, to be an observer to a constitutionally legal poll as to whether the Honduran people wanted to have a body to study constitutional reform included in the elections of next November. The results of this study would later be put to a popular referendum.

Contrary to mistaken references in the anglo/western media that the coup was triggered by fears that he was seeking extra time in the Presidency, Zelaya was not seeking this, and had not even put his name down as a Presidencial candidate. He was actually looking forward to retirement.

Toni tracks the amazement of observers when an armed military coup interrupted the poll, and they went to the Presidential Palace, in the middle of a military media blackout, to discover that there was a mobilisation of people trying to prevent the coup non violently.

This was the script set out for the next week of events in Honduras.

Alexis was one of those of the CISPES delegation to see the first 'leftist' President of El Salvador take the Presidential sash after a clearly won electoral victory over the 20 year right wing corrupt regime. It was a regime, closely allied with the US Republican Party, that was founded by the author of the notorious Death Squads of the 1970s and 1980s.

The FMLN has shown a patience and tolerance above and beyond the call of duty to demonstrate its commitment as a truly democratic party to serve the people. These were people who were its base, and support during a 12 year 'civil war'.

The presence of virtually all the dignitaries of Latin America, as well as US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was a tribute to that expression of popular support. Probably not much said in the mainstream 'anglo media', but to Salvadorans, and Latin America in general it was a 'date with history'.

The Americas are changing, and Alexis gives us an eyewitness account of the significance of this event in San Salvador. Not only for the dignitaries, but for the people who came to the stadium to support this initiative for a long awaited change.

Musical bands who were for many years 'illegal' arrived to pay a Latin American tribute to this 'date with history', when the popular new President arrived to address his supporters at the stadium, before the formal cocktail parties of the evening with foreign dignatories.

The journalist made the video last Thursday "... If you are watching this, it is because I have been murdered... "  he was murdered on Sunday.

There are strong links between drug trafficking and neo-liberal, and neo fascist governments. Governments don't actually do 'hands on' drug trafficking, but they are essential to the money laundering required to pay the lip service to the US Drug Enforcement Agency. There are proven links between the drug traffickers, money laundering, and high officials in the Salvadoran  ARENA government that is now on the defensive after last month's presidential election victory agains them.

Felipe claims that he was 'just another guerilla' (and before the formation of the FMLN, an activist), but was coopted into forming a guerilla musical group when a Spanish journalist overheard him making up a song during a moment of relaxation by a riverside. The journalist persuaded the guerilla commandante to get Felipe to recruit a guerilla band, and the rest is history.

Felipe was a bit burnt out after doing two gigs back to back in villages over a hundred kilometres apart, to celebrate the inauguration of FMLN mayors, but we held the interview to the next day, and Felipe privileged community radio with an impromptu performance of the first song he ever wrote.

He talks about the relationship of the FMLN with the Armed Forces, and about the FMLN's position on the still sensitive issue of impunity, and the Amnesty Law for those guilty of Human Rights violations).

There are broadsheets and pamphlets in El Salvador, but we are talking to journalists the more mature ones) who have survived journalism in a Civil War, and others, from the  younger generation who see the point.

El Diario Co-Latino is the end product of  a newspaper that has been bombed, bankrupted,  set on fire, and generally persecuted. It has also been the training ground of young journalists who are not prepared to sell out to financial interests, graduates from the National University of El Salvador, that has refused to sell out to neo-liberal interests. There are over 50 'private' universities in San Salvador  many of them controlled byformer military officers of the former regime - a retirement break for US accredited generals and colonels who have been afforded 'impunity' for their role in gross human rights violations. Remains to be seen if the new government can reconstruct the neoliberal 'plantation', or whether the Universities can still generate a critical, committed, and honest journalist.

Meeting Gregorio from the Salvadoran Dockworkers Union (STIPES) was an unforgettable experience. Gregorio quietly and matter of factly exposes the Dickensian conditions imposed on Salvadoran wharf laborers since a military intervention in 2001 - supposedly to improve Port security after September 11 in New York, but in reality to break up the 40 year old dockworkers Union and force the wharf workers to work under a 'contract' system that yields them at best US$36 a month. Gregorio's account is a quietly understated expose of the true nature of the ARENA government that has run El Salvador for the last 20 years. Gregorio is cautiously optimistic that the new government which comes into power on June 1st might offer some change in the horrendous working conditions of these men.

While this has been trumpeted in the US and conservative media as an attempt by popular President Hugo Chavez to make himself 'President for Life', nothing could be further from the truth. As Lara Pullin points out, the Australian, French, and the constitutions of a number of other countries allow for indefinite re-election (as opposed to 'appointment') of politicians (witness the Mezies years) so it is hard to see what the fuss is about.

Amanda Peters, CISPES observer of the El Salvadoran elections brings us an update on the latest developments. Two of the presidential candidates have been persuaded to drop out, after a bit of arm twisting by the ARENA party, in the hope that it will combine the vote against the FMLN (looking like an outright winner, according to the polls). The tactic seems to have backfired with the minority (dropout) parties committing votes to the FMLN, resenting the standover tactics of ARENA.

Still there are fears of ARENA pulling more dirty tactics out of the hat. The Electoral Tribunal seems to be set on ignoring the vote stacking and buying, the importation of fake voters, and an unwillingness to address the issue of outdated electoral rolls. The March 15 elections are volatile, and reports will follow.

After numerous documented irregularities in the January round (Municipal and Legislative Assembly elections) the lead up to the Presidential race is becoming tense.

Trailing the FMLN candidate by more than ten points in the polls, ARENA has pressured two of the Presidential candidates of the minor parties to withdraw, and there are fears that ARENA, known as the "Death Squad" party will resort to more dangerous tactics yet, to claw back their former power.

Jim Dunn was one of the observers of the 1999 plebiscite in Timor Leste when the Indonesian military unleashed a wave of devastation and murder against the Timorese people. Those responsible have still not been brought to account, thanks largely to the attitude of the Australian government. The ABC's program on "The Howard Years" skims over this aspect of the Howard administration's effect on Timor Leste. John Howard claims much of the credit for Timor becoming independent of Indonesia, but the true story is that Timorese independence was the last thing on his mind. Observers like Jim Dunn find the ABC's treatment of this aspect of the Howard Years disappointing, to say the least.

Fred Fuentes reports from Caracas on the regional election results this November in Venezuela ('State' Governers, and Mayors). While the 'Chavista' VSUP increased its' total vote, the right wing opposition clawed back two State governorships, and a key Mayoral position in Metropolitan Caracas (Venezuela's capital).

Fred points out that a strong push by the right wing parties and candidates has have failed in a strategy to undermine the pro Chavez government and its program, serving mainly to eliminate some of the weaker elements in the administration.

It has also served to show up the fascistic tendencies of the opposition, with the opposition Mayors and Governors attempting to dismantle some of the facilities of the grass roots organisations (like a community youth TV channel) within days of winning their seats.

This hints at some future confrontations between the back and forward looking sectors of Venezuelan society.

Burke Stansbury from CISPES talks about the move to extradite former ARENA president of El Salvador, Cristiani, along with 14 others to be put on trial for their responsibility in Human Rights violations. The best known of these is  the massacre of 6 Jesuit priests, their housekeeper and her daughter, nineteen years ago. This could have serious implications for ARENA's prospects in next year's elections. While the extradition order is being considered by a Spanish court, protesters in the US are demonstrating outside the US training camp where the Salvadoran Atlacatl battalion, notorious for this and other brutal massacres, were trained. The Atlacatl battalion was also responsible for the massacre of El Mozote, where an entire village was wiped out.

Nimbin Community Radio 2NimFM caught this exclusive interview with Mari Alkatiri when he was in Australia to talk about his vision for Timor Leste as a potential bridge for Asian, Pacific, and Western cultures. Timor Leste is unusually well placed for this role historically, culturally, and linguisticly, having kept its' unique identity through successive waves of colonisation by the Portugese, invasion by the Japanese in WWII, and occupation by the Indonesians in 1970s and 1990s.

Here is the first four minutes of his well received presentation at the Australian National University. Following is an exclusive ten minute interview with community radio 2NimFM just before Mari Alkatiri's meeting with Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. Mari fields questions about the need for justice for the people of Timor Leste, the controversial Peace March, now deferred because of the threats of repression from the current Prime Minister, and a broad outline of how the Fretilin Party (of which he is the General Secretary) is organised.  Fretilin  ranks are open to the younger generation, which is strongly represented in the party organisation.

      Finally, Mari briefly comments on his own role in the Fretilin party.

With the onset of the Wall Street crash, Venezuela invited 40 political economists to Caracas, to debate the crisis and propose alternatives. The conference titled âResponses from the South to the Global Economic Crisisâ. Chaired by Venezuelaâs Planing and Development Minister Haiman El Troudi and Luis Bonilla from the Centro Internacional Miranda, the group presented papers and debated for four days, before presenting the Venezuelan Government with a joint statement.

Dr. Tim Anderson was one of the Political Economists invited an he spoke to Nimbin Community Radio 2Nim FM about how the Latin American countries are preparing for the imminent world recession. Unlike the more developed nations Latin American countries are investing in the social and public sector rather than bailing out the private sector, to buffer themselves from the Wall Street meltdown.

Burke Stansbury talks about the CISPES attendance at the Social Forum of the Americas in Guatemala recently, where representatives from Latin American countries discussed the meltdown of the US financial system. The recent gains of social organisations and movements could well be a buffer for those who will be most affected by recession, but historically such gains have brought on a backlash by entrenched interests. The establishment by the US of an International Law Enforcement Academy in El Salvador has seen a corresponding increase in the number of disappearances and extra-judicial murders and assassinations of individuals involved in social movements and the opposition party FMLN, and there is a strange reluctance to allow outsiders to see the curriculum or the teaching methods. ILEAs have been set up in a number of key Latin American countries, and are seen as a replacement for the notorious US based School of the Americas, which was closed down in the 90s due to its association with the training of some of Latin America's worst military dictatorships, and the teaching of 'death squad' methods.

Lara Pullin with the latest update on the lead up to El Salvador's elections next year. As the FMLN continues to outstrip the governing ARENA coalition in the polls, the government politicians are resorting to more and more desperate tactics. Recently the foreign minister for El Salvador argued in the US for the kind of intervention used just a few years ago to swing the results in favour of the ARENA coalition. The US Ambassador in El Salvador assured a visiting delegation that the US did not intend to intervene again, but with the ARENA foreign minister lobbying furiously in the US, anything could happen.

Dr. Francisco Dominguez, from the Department of Latin American and Brazilian studies of Middleton University in London was on the phone to community radio 2NimFM with some of the details, and the background of the events in Bolivia over the last few weeks, and the implications of some of the latest developments. On September 11 (the anniversary of the 1973 coup in Chile) President Evo Morales expelled the US Ambassador for his role in encouraging violence and racist thuggery led by prominent avowedly right wing public figures in resource rich regions. These figures are leading a drive to 'break away' from the central government of Bolivia, but their tactics include violence, burning, looting, destruction of radio stations that don't support their agenda, and racist vilification and public humiliation of indigenous people. The last straw was a genocidal shooting down of scores of unarmed indigenous people who had gathered in protest against the racially motivated violence.

In the second part of this interview, Dr. Francisco Dominguez talks about the regional implications, and the implications for Latin America, of the coup attempt in Bolivia. A surprising number of Latin American countries have rallied in support of the President Evo Morales' central government, and have rejected US interference in Latin American affairs  -  including governments that in the past have been traditionally aligned with the US administration. Far from 'dividing and ruling' the coup attempt in Bolivia has rallied almost all of Latin America in a united front. It is an historic first, with some far reaching long term effects that at this stage, can only be guessed at by most Western observers. The role of Venezuela, which has broken the political stranglehold on its economic autonomy has been critical.

Lara updates us on the looming elections next year in El Salvador. A double barrelled election with the regional and state elections separated by less than a month from the Presidential election in March. The governing party ARENA has already tried to change electoral law to prevent international observers arriving  - an important issue when it is understood that El Salvador does not have the equivalent of a domestic organization to oversee  elections. Perhaps it has something to do with the commanding, and growing lead of popular support for the opposition FMLN.

And is it just coincidence that USAID and AUSAID have recently launched a US$500,000 project to establish who owns what land in Timor Leste? Traditional communal ownership of land could suffer in the growing push for privatisation. Traditional communal ownership of land could suffer in the growing push for privatisation, as well as the population's drive for self sufficiency in the face of growing costs in basic foods world wide - largely as a result of multinational corporations turning  land over to the production of food crops to biofuels.

One of the legacies left by the former Indonesian occupation of Timor Leste was an increased level of crime and corruption. Jose Texeira talks to community radio about an incremental increase in the levels of semi-organised crime, especially since the 'troubles' of 2006. President Jose Ramos Horta had also expressed growing disquiet about the level, and the nature of crime in Timor Leste and was taking steps to initiate an enquiry, but his initiatives were interrupted by the attempt on his life last February 11.

In this second part of a three part interview, Julie Webb, freelance journalist and reporter for Scoop talks about the frustration of the Cuban government in trying to deal with the effects of two hurricanes that have devastated the country, while still under the restrictions of the US economic embargo. Even lifting the illegal embargo for six months, would make a world of difference to the Cuban people, and their efforts to recover from the aftermath of the hurricane, far more than 'gifts' of food and materials would. Julie describes the history of the illegal blockade, and its long term effects on Cuba and its people.

On the anniversary, almost to the day of the coup against Salvador Allende in Chile on September 11 19793, right wing forces in Bolivia attempted to seize control of the country in a Civil coup against the elected government of Evo Morales. At the time of this interview 18 people had been killed by the right wing gangs, hundreds of indigenous people badly beaten by the racist youth group, and the US Ambassador expelled for his complicity in organising the thuggery.
The Venezuelan government expelled the US Ambassador in sympathy, and for his part in coordinating opposition figures in an attempt to take over the government of Venezuela, and other Latin American nations have declared their support for the governments of Bolivia and Venezuela. Latin America is in the process of declaring its autonomy from the 200 year hegemony of the United States in controlling its affairs.
Lara Pullin gives us the details of the event of this historic week in world history.

Julie Webb correspondent for 'Scoop' from Latin America gives us the background history of five Cubans who have spent ten years in a US prison for the simple act of passing on information about expatriate Cuban terrorist cells in Florida and Miami. These remnants of the Batista regime of the 1960s, who fled to the US when Castro's revolutionary forces came to power have not been able to accept the historical reality of the Cuban revolution, and continue to plot  and plan a comeback. They have been responsible for numerous deaths and plots not only in Cuba, but in the US. The FBI responded to this information by imprisoning the people who (perhaps naively) passed the compromising information about these terrorist cells on. Ten years later they are still in gaol.

They want it back, and their influence in the US political system has meant that the Cuban Five are victims of 'payback'. And the US justice system in Florida is happy to go along with it.

Julie Webb correspondent for 'Scoop' explains the inordinate influence that the Miami Cuban expatriate 'mafia' have on the US political system, resulting in the perversion of justice for the 'Cuban Five' now spending their tenth year in gaol. She outlines the repudiation and disappointment with the US justice system both domestically and internationally, with high profile identities delivering a petition and five people being arrested in a huge demonstration to demand justice for the Cuban Five. The travesty of justice is significantly harming respect for the US and its' political integrity.

Lara Pullin, Latin American solidarity activist has breaking news from El Salvador. The FMLN opposition party is confident enough of its popular support, and its chances of winning next years election, that they have tabled legislation repealing the 'amnesty law', granting impunity to those accused of gross human rights violations and war crimes, during the 12 year civil war. The law was passed in 1993 as part of the 1992 'Accord' that marked the end of the civil war.
Repeal of the amnesty law will will impinge heavily on the ARENA party (that leads the current governing coalition) and the military. The founder of the ARENA party, Roberto D'Aubuisson was widely believed to have ordered the assassination of Archbishop Romero and other Death Squad murders, while certain army units were responsible for the elimination of entire villages, including children and infants.
As the elections next year draw nearer tensions are mounting, with FMLN leaders calling on their supporters not to react to increasing incidents of anti-FMLN violence.

Burke tells us why the governing ARENA party is pulling out all the stops in its effort to continue in power in El Salvador. With the 2009 elections coming up early next year the opposition FMLN is showing a twenty point lead in all the polls.
The FMLN is not rushing into a radical makeover of the economy - decades of conservative and reactionary rule have made neo-conservative policy institutional structures. Next year's FMLN presidential candidate, Mauricio Funes is proposing moderate reforsm. But in the Latin American context it will mean that El Salvador will join the growing number of Latin American countries liberating themselves from US hegemomy and intervention, with the ability to develop themselves freely away from the the influence and impositions of the IMF the World Bank, and Washington.

Burke Stansbury on the US. harassment of CISPES 

CISPES, the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador was established in the USA in the 1980s when US trained Death Squads were systematically killing opposition to the US backed military regime in ritual terrorist assassinations. When US citizens organize themselves to resist the brutality of US foreign policy they came under scrutiny by the US police and intelligence services. It seems that old habits die hard. Current members of the CISPES have been investigated and harassed by the FBI because they have brought to public attention the return of Death Squad tactics in El Salvador, to break down opposition to the US backed government there with overtly terroristic tactics. In a previous interview Burke Stansbury gained an admission from the US Ambassador in El Salvador that the US had actively intervened in the 2004 elections.

It remains to be seen whether the US is trying to influence the results of next year's elections, but the fingerprints are all over the return of the Death Squads and the more recent harassment of CISPES.

Burke Stansbury from Washington. He has just returned from a fact finding mission to El Salvador with  CISPES where he had an interesting conversation with the US Ambassador there. While the Ambassador admitted that there was political intervention on the side of the ARENA party by the US to influence the results of the last Salvadoran elections, the Ambassador claims that the US State Department has no intention of influencing upcoming elections of 2009. Burke  is skeptical, and in this interview he explains why.

40 years of dictatorship of Nicaragua by the Somoza Dynasty, and invasions by the US dating back to the 1890s (William Walker who declared himself President for several years and sold the right to gather taxes to the Morgan Bank)was overthrown. The serial invasions continued through the early 1900s, when the US sent in marines (and incidentally, first used aircraft as a weapon of war) through the 1920s. Throughout the 1980s the US financed the mercenary remnant of Somoza's National Guard, the 'contras,' financed illegally by the CIA and cocaine connections. Eventually, through a near total economic blockade,Nicaragua was virtually starved into submission, until a government more to the liking of the US was elected in 1990.

She clears up some of the confusion about the Commission, which has been criticised in the past for being ineffective and powerless to prosecute offenders. Particularly relevant at this time, with recent (and not so recent) press revelations about Australian intelligence services selectively gathering, and also holding back, information under political pressures, on the grounds of maintaining diplomatic relations.

Fred gives us the insider's view of the most recent Chavez call on the Colombian FARC guerrillas to consider putting the armed struggle aside and release their hostages unconditionally (he made a similar statement in January that went unnoticed). This has been exploited by the opposition within Venezuela as a sign of a 'weakening' of Chavez' authority, but the recent PSUV (Venezuelan Socialist Party) preselection results bode well for the developing grass roots foundational support for Chavez in the upcoming November elections.

Nevertheless, Washington, which has been accusing the Venezuelan government of supporting the FARC, during the recent hostage release negotiations, is suddenly at a loss for words.

He had time to observe the situation in the streets of Dili, the halls of Parliament, the countryside and the refugee camps. Jim has some 'filthy' questions about why, Human Rights violations against the Timorese people over the last 75 years are still not recognized. Even Indonesian visitors are surprised that the Generals and Colonels who devasted Timor Leste have not been called to account. Most have actually been promoted. Is it the role of the suffering Timorese people to be an instrument of the power games of others?

Lara Pullin with the latest update on the situation in El Salvador where the governing ARENA coalition has scrapped the agreements on electoral reform with the Organisation of American States. With even the most conservative polls giving the FMLN opposition party a commanding 20 point lead, the right wing ARENA party is resorting to increasingly desperate tactics in a bid to steal next year's elections  -  even threatening to expel independent observers who will be arriving there to observe the elections, including a number of Australians.

While President Chavez' power base is with the grass roots organisations, some of the entrenched bureaucrats and more conservative politicians are fighting off challenges from delegates representing these grass roots organisations, tooth and nail. PSUV is currently going through a kind of 'pre-selection' process, and the more conservative elements are using all kinds of dirty tricks to hang on to their influence within the party.

Jose Texeira, a Fretilin Parliamentarian and the party's media spokesman was in Australia this week and granted 2NimFM an interview where he clarifies some of the issues at stake in the weakening of the AMP governing coalition. One of the older parties, the ASDT, and several smaller parties, are concerned at the lack of transparency of at least one of the appointed AMP Ministers with an apparently covert agreement with an Indonesian Biofuel company to turn a quarter of East Timor's arable land to sugar cane production for biofuels.  It took over three months to force the AMP government to make the details of the deal available for public discussion. Jose says that this need not necessarily lead to an early election, this will depend very much on the government's response to questioning. The ASDT has already signed an agreement to run as a coalition party with Fretilin, should elections be called.

Fred Fuentes on the most recent escalation of hostile manouevres against the Venezuelan government. A US plane invades Venezuelan air space, at the same time that Colombian troops are found inside Venezuelan territory. Then, a day later, 60 more!
And by a strange coincidence, there is a major international media campaign about the FARC (Colombian guerilla movement) computers alleged to have been found when Colombian troops invaded Ecuadorean territory last March. Washington claims that it establishes a 'compromising' link between the Venezuelan government and the FARC guerillas, but everyone who has read further than the first paragraph of the Interpol examination of the computers recognises an eerie similarity between this finding, and the Bush administration's wolf cry of 'weapons of mass destruction' in the lead up to the war in Iraq.

Estanislau Da Silva was a former Prime Minister of Timor Leste, when the Fretilin was the party in government. Before that, he was the Minister for Agriculture in the Fretilin government. He is in Australia this week to attend the launching of a book by a Timorese man, Naldo Rei  (click here to see Radio National ABC interview) who grew up in Indonesian occupied Timor Leste, as a committed supporter of the Fretilin led resistance movement.

Estanislau Da Silva spoke to 2NimFM and Latin Radical at a very opportune time. Australian mainstream media is playing down the commitment of the second largest (social democrat) political party to run with Fretilin as a renovated government coalition in next year's elections. But it looks like the beginning of the end of Xanana Gusmao's hastily cobbled together AMP coalition, designed to keep Fretilin out of power after last year's election result, when Fretilin won the largest vote, but was denied the opportunity to try to form a government, by Presidential intervention.

Da Silva does not dwell on this. He moves on and is at his most eloquent and passionate (as a former Minister for Agriculture) when he speaks about the Fretilin party's commitment to resist the pressures of corporate Agribusiness, and a commitment to develop, as far as possible, self sufficiency in basic food products by enabling small farmers. The current government appears to be more interested in encouraging corporate agribusiness investment. Da Silva says Fretilin is committed to resisting corporate pressures to use Timor's precious acreage to grow biofuels - the main factor in a looming global shortage of basic food products. Important, when even corporations like Nestles are saying that there is no such thing as a global food shortage - it is the diversion of food crops to produce biofuels that is causing the rise in food prices.

Fred takes us right down to the nitty-gritty of the tensions building in Bolivia - largely due to not very well disguised US nodding and winking to right wing crypto-fascist organisations working as a catspaw to US corporate interests.
The recent meeting of ALBA - a Latin American entity of nations finally making an attempt to break free of US hegemony  -  has announced its support for the Bolivian government. The  US is making blatant attempts to undermine the fledgeling government. But will it work this time, as it has in the past? Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez says no, and his voice is a visionary voice backed with oil resources that puts his vision outside and beyond the limitations and imaginative backwardness of corporate USA - and includes the real struggle against planetary climate change.

Lara reports on the latest development on the situation in El Salvador. Tensions are growing as the divide between the major opposition party, the FMLN, and ARENA (which created the Death Squads of the 70s and 80s) present for the Presidential elections next year. And of course, as usual, the USA is playing a hegemonic role  - and, as usual on the side most people would not normally like to see in a position of supremacy.

Lisa puts us in the picture, with the latest development in the ExxonMobil  legal challenge to the Venezuelan government's buyout of foreign ownership shares in the oil industry  - often referred to as 'nationalisation'. The Venezuelan government just wants 51% control over its national resources. Exxon Mobil rejected the Venezuelan government's generous compensation/bouyout offer (although most other oil companies were happy enough), and tried to freeze 3.5 billion dollars of Venezuelan assets around the world. The London judge threw it out of court.

Lara Pullin tells us how the political tensions leading up to next year's Presidential elections in El Salvador are not just limited to this tiny nation of 6 million people. The solidarity organisation CISPES has been targetted by the FBI in the US, because its activists sent an invitation to the FMLN's presidential candidate, and hosted him for a speaking tour of the US. Suddenly Quakers, human rights advocates and other US citizens have been accused of being terrorists, or terrorist supporters.

Lara Pullin describes the political tensions in El Salvador which are growing even though it is almost a year before Presidential elections are to be held. Death Squad activity is on the rise, and much of it seems to have been sponsored by the US, while peasant dissidents are classed as 'terrorists' because of their opposition to a growing campaign of privatisation.

Rachel Evans describes three month stay in Bolivia where she witnessed the social revolution of the Morales government  - the first indigenous leader to be elected in a country that suffered 193 coups in two hundred years  - mainly between rival factions of a military elite. The veins of Bolivia's rich mineral resources were open, first to Spain, and then, after the war of independence from Spain, the US. Now, for the first time the Bolivian people are reclaiming their right to be free from exploitation, but not without a lot of kicking and screaming from the entrenched oligarchic and military elite. Morales has his work cut out for him.

Fred Fuentes gets us focussed on just how important the recent reconciliation of three Latin American countries  - Colombia, Equador, and Venezuela  - is to Latin America. Last week they were close to being on a war footing. The three countries declared that they were reconciled at an Interamerican conference in Santo Domingo, usually regarded as being of little importance, because the agenda is usually driven by the US. It has become obvious to the Latin American world community that the 'divide and conquer' regional wedging politics of the US is just not on. The Colombian President Uribe, isolated in the Latin American community has had to back down on his warlike actions of last week. It seems that a new pattern has been set for Latin American forums and meetings of national leaders that is becoming less responsive to the US agenda. Chavez' peace initiatives (not to mention his credentials) have been strengthened by the incident, in spite of increased efforts by the US driven media to demonise him.

Fred Fuentes calls community radio station 2NimFM with breaking news from Caracas. Troops are being mobilised to guard the borders with Coloumbia, in Venezuela and Ecuador after Colombia's incursion into Ecuador to 'take out' a FARC (Columbian rebel) guerilla leader. Tensions are high in both Ecuador and Venezuela. The Colombian government seems to be piqued that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has achieved something that the Colombian government couldn't bring itself to do for the last decade  -  achieved the release of high profile hostages by the Colombian FARC guerillas. The Colombian military intervened at a critical moment in last months hostage release in an apparent attempt to sabotage the efforts of Hugo Chavez, but without success. With the assistance of US satellite intelligence they located a temporary camp of a Colombian guerilla leader (who had committed himself to releasing more hostages shortly) a few kilometers inside Ecuador, strafed it with cluster bombs, and made an incursion into Ecuadorian territory to find the leader's body, and put it on display in the Colombian press. All done without consultation with the President of Ecuador. Now both Ecuador and Venezuela have severed diplomatic relations with Columbia. Colombia has deployed troops to the Venezuelan border, and a further escalation will put all three countries on a war footing. Important regional meetings and conferences between South American presidents to decide economic and political issues have been cancelled or disrupted. Latin America is experiencing a political and social earthquake.

Fred Fuentes in Caracas reports that while the recent makeover of the PSUV (The United Socialist Party of Venezuela) is straining the political system, President Chavez' vision for Venezuela and Bolivarianism has not been compromised, and the empowering of the grass roots could mean that the corruption and bureaucratism that had become entrenched over the decades of the last century may be challenged. Meanwhile, external pressures to break down the will of the Venezuelan program for change are being resisted. This includes the challenge of Exxon Mobil, and the aggressive attitude of the neighbouring Columbian government  - not to mention the glowering resentments of Washington.

With record profits, exceeding the gross national product of many nations (US$36 billion last year), Exxon is bullying many countries to fit their climate change targets to Exxon's agenda  - including the targets tentatively set by Australia's new Rudd Labor government.

Lisa McDonald of the Australia Venezuela Solidarity Network (AVSN) fills us in on the latest attempt to undermine the sovereignty of Venezuela by the US based transnational corporation Exxon, which has taken out legal action against the Venezuelan state oil company. Exxon seems to believe that a non-privatised oil company that spends its profits on social programs is a blight on the planet, and has managed to have $US13 billion worth of Venezuelan assets frozen around the world while it sues for a US$180 million in compensation.  Oddly enough, US$13 billion is exactly what the Venezuelan State oil company spends on social programs for the Venezuelan people!

Jim Dunn, former diplomat, adviser to Timorese President Jose Ramos Horta, and Human Rights activist, reviews the traumatic events of the last week in Timor Leste. The stampede of much mainstream media  in Australia to label the attack on the President and Prime Minister of Timor Leste a coup is ill advised, he says, and it would be misjudging the situation to say that Timor Leste has been further destabilised by the events of last week. And the jury is still out on what exactly was Reynado's motivation.

Kiraz Janicke, based in Caracas is on the phone to Latin Radical for the latest developments in the media war against the government of President Hugo Chavez. Chavez' success in negotiating a successful hostage release, without military intervention stuck in the craw of the US and the government of Columbia. Columbian embassies and Consulates have organised demonstrations against the FARC around the world (including Australia) in an effort to discredit the Chavez government and torpedo his promotion of peace talks between the FARC (which controls over 30% of Columbia) and the Columbian government. Meanwhile, Chavez has evicted the US drug enforcement officials of the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) with a rise in big drug busts by Venezuelan authorities, commended by the UN monitoring authority. Right wing paramilitaries are infiltrating into Venezuela across the Columbian border to disrupt land reform programs by Venezuelan peasant farmers.

Finally, how to join an Australian brigade to Venezuela, and see for yourself.

Lara Pullin on El Salvador's coming elections. Pt 1

El Salvador suffered terribly in a civil war that lasted through the decade of the 1980s. After the FMLN fought the US backed military to a standstill in 1989 a peace was negotiated over the next 2 years, and in 1992, amid much jubilation an 'accord' was signed with the FMLN which became a major, legally registered political party, and narrowly lost winning government against a five party coalition led by the right wing ARENA party.

Next year, 2009, will be another presidential election. But over recent years it seems that ARENA is reverting to form. The founder of ARENA, Roberto D'Aubuisson ran the notorious Death Squads through the 1970s and 1980s, and is believed to be the intellectual author of the assassination of Archbishop Romero in March 1980.  The Death Squads are back, and the head of the National Police of El Salvador sees no need to investigate the political violence, assassinations of leading FMLN Mayors and political figures.

And guess who has been chosen to be ARENA's Presidential candidate next year? If you guessed the head of the National Police, you win a free bag of tortillas.

Lara Pullin on the El Salvadoran elections Part 2

Lara talks about some of the details of the return of the Death Squads in El Salvador, and the incremental increase in their activities, including the assassination of a Mayor, and  threats against a Public radio station that caters to the people, rather than the commercial  media moguls.

She analyses possible reasons for the violent reaction of the right wing governing party. Is it possible that they might lose the next Presidential election.  Does the influence of Venezuela allow political parties more scope to be independent of the interests of the US?

Fred was in the thick of the huge plebiscite that took place in Venezuela last week, for constitutional reforms designed to institutionalise the sweeping changes the Chavez government is implementing. The plebiscite was narrowly lost, after a ruthless campaign of sabotage and destabilisation by the Venezuelan business class and the CIA, which invested US$8million into the process. Fred gives us an informed and considered assessment of the plebiscite. We get a good analysis of why it did not succeed, what the result means to Venezuela, and most importantly,why the narrow loss was a Pyhrric victory for the Venezuelan right wing opposition.

Glebe Coroner's Court handed down a finding last month that the 5 journalists killed at Balibo in Timor Leste in 1975 were murdered by an invading Indonesian force which both the Australian and Indonesian governments at the time were denying  was in progress, or even planned. The Coroner recommended that there should be further investigation to establish whether this act constituted a war crime.

Jim Dunn, who was the Australian Consul about that time, and who has since been active in the United Nations and Human Rights bodies to claim justice for the East Timorese people talks about the significance of this finding, and what it means for the Timorese, the Australian and Indonesian governments, and the families of the murdered newsmen.

Reported rumours of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez' dictatorial tendencies seem to be grossly exaggerated, according to Stuart Munkton from the Latin American desk of GreenLeft weekly. International mainstream media coverage of right wing student protests (designed to sabotage the latest plebiscite for constitutional reform) got both the facts and the figures wrong. Stuart explains, quite simply what the reforms are, why a huge majority of the Venezuelan people will vote in favor of them, and why the US State department and the establishment media are in an hysterical feeding frenzy over the possibilities of popularly ratified change.

Rob Wesley-Smith has just come back from one of his many visits to Timor Leste. He is familiar with the area (Same) and the people where Australian troops tried to capture the rebel mutineer, Alfredo Reynado. Wes knows Reynado personally, being one of the few people to meet him when Reynado first came to Australia as a refugee. While not impressed with Reynado's role in recent events, Wes is very critical of the 'modus operandi' of the Australian Defense Forces in Timor Leste.

Wes has been active in defense of the independence of the East Timorese people since the first days of the Indonesian intervention. His involvement goes back to dodging police and ASIO agents to set up and maintain the clandestine radio transmitter, which was the only means the Fretilin/Falintil guerillas had of communicating with the outside world, after Indonesia sealed East Timor off.  Wes was also involved in several attempts to smuggle medical supplies to the Fretilin guerillas in 1976. In this interview he recalls half a lifetime of activism for Timor Leste.

Environmentalists, Maori elders (indeed, whole communities), and peace activists were all targetted in the illegal police raids which were timed to coincide with a parliamentary vote to strengthen 'anti-terrorist' legislation.

Terrorist Raids NZ http://nimbinradiomedia.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=268948# Julie Webb, correspondent for Narco News (http://narconews.com) and Scoop (http://scoop.co.nz) returns to New Zealand after 18 months in Mexico, to find herself caught up in a wave of 'anti-terrorist' police actions. NZ police used anti-terrorist legislation to round up and intidate hundreds of people even remotely involved in any kind of social activism. Environmentalists, Maori elders (indeed, whole communities), and peace activists were all targetted in the illegal police raids which were timed to coincide with a parliamentary vote to strengthen 'anti-terrorist' legislation.

Jennifer Drysdale at the Centre for Environmental Studies at the Australian National University spent 2 years in Timor Leste researching the governance of East Timor's hard won petroleum resources. Now, with the new Timorese Parliament taking control of the Petroleum Fund she talks with Nimbin Community Radio 2NimFm about the past and future prospects for East Timor's budding economy. The lineup of political parties that kept Fretilin out of government campaigned strongly on accusations that Fretilin was 'holding out' on the petroleum fund. Yet, the new parliament shows no signs of changing the Fretilin policy. Jennifer's PhD. research turns Australian media preconceptions  on its head, indicating that the Fretilin policy was, in fact, what the people really wanted, and that Fretilin was actually responding to the popular will.

The Howard Government has recently wound the 'clock back' in its indigenous policies. Both major parties are in agreement of the recently introduced policies affecting indigenous Australians.
Many acts, actions, and media propaganda has been expended to open the gates for the rush of mostly mining interests to 'grab' land off the indigenous owners. Mick has worked many years on these issues, and has a great deal to tell.

In that time she saw sub-commandante Marcos in action, met other Zapatista leaders, and was active in fending off violent attempts by landowners to  force Zapatista communities off their land and out of their homes. This was done using Zapatista tactics of non-violence. She observed the Zapatista movement supporting the 'other government'  - an alternative movement aiming for a government in Mexico based on grass roots democracy and indigenous traditions  - which is establishing itself all over Mexico. In the state of Oaxaca the 'Other Government' now ignores the State governor and runs much of the state from grass-roots community organisations. Julie is now in New Zealand and planning to return to Mexico soon.

While the reforms will establish Venezuela as one of the most visionary nations of the 21st Century, with power devolving away from the Central state to grass roots organisations, the capitalist establishment has reacted with shock and horror, as reflected in the mainstream media's view of President Chavez.

Benny has this to say:

When your presenters play the Pete Seeger concert get them to sign the
petition Pete Seeger for Nobel Prize
Some good news story.

On Thursday I attended at the Dag Hammarskjold Plaza, the Peace Boat's 3rd
Annual People Building Peace Concert: A Celebration of Initiatives for a
Nuclear-Free World In Remembrance of Nagasaki Day.
<http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/227847/>

I hung my dove and dolphin flags above the stage and the peace sign flag
bottom right hand side of stage. I put on my costume and mask and performed
around the plaza in my usual way. Towards the end of the rally/concert, I
danced with the flags.
It was a great day. Felicity Hill and Senator Joe Valentines daughter were
there.
Pamela Timmins who filmed me at Indian Point, helped me set up a display on
the curbside that attracted Pete Seegers attention. To my delight he
responded to my request to be photographed and filmed with him. I was
introduced to Phil Sauer's at the Peace Film Festival by Pam who turns out
to know John Seed. Phil Sauers is a main player in the water not bombs
campaign that was also inspired by Pete Seeger. This is his website:
<http://www.wwrf.org/>
Anyway he introduced me to the Pete Seeger appreciation page for you to
check out and get inspired. <http://www.peteseeger.net >
There is also a petition to nominate Pete Seeger for the 2008 Nobel Peace
Prize at:

<http://www.petitionthem.com/default.asp?sect=detail&pet=3774 >

Please sign and post around.

Yours Benny Zable

Professor Damien Kingsbury has been very critical of the role of the Fretilin party and its General Secretary Mari Alkatiri. But Bob Boughton of the University of New England spent six months there observing the Presidential elections, and he has a different view. Meanwhile, interviews with Jim Dunn (who has just been asked to return as an advisor to President Jose Ramos Horta) and East Timorese leaders, are pending. Watch this space. Did Jose Ramos Horta make a wise decision in appointing Xanana Gusmao the Prime Minister? Australian mainstream media has its knickers in a knot over this one, but  it is no joke for the Timorese people.

Fretilin has received the largest vote of any party, but all the other parties have combined to ensure that is does not have a parliamentary majority. East Timor's constitution (like that of European countries, like Portugal) allows that the party with the highest number of votes can chose the Prime Minister with the endorsement of the President, but the anti-Fretilin Alliance claims that they should chose the next PM. Meanwhile President Jose Ramos Horta refuses to commit, although it is well known that he favours the Alliance candidate.
NimFM then gets the views of expert East Timor observer Jim Dunn, who knows the actors in this drama.
[Note:Since these interviews, the Alliance has threatened to block the budget, if PM Ramos Horta approves the appointment of the Fretilin Prime Ministerial candidate.]

Stuart Monkton reports http://nimbinradiomedia.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=240292# Stuart Monkton of Greenleft Weekly talks about the aftereffects of the denial of licence renewal of RCTV; Venezuela's biggest Television media conglomerate. He explains why the Anglophone mainstream media interpretation of this as 'censorship' is disingenuous (if not downright dishonest) -  and how the refusal to disallow the license renewal to the commercial channel advantages public radio by freeing up formerly privately monopolised bandwidth.

Stuart also explains some of the astounding spinoff of Venezuela's socialisation program. Health programs which will put Venezuela light years ahead of the US health system, and an investment in the future with 18 new Universities. Venezuela is aiming to become less dependent on imports and using its resources  to become a skill based autonomous producer of goods and technologies that will empower the Third World to use its own resources to break away from US hegemony.

(Spanish Language version 
- work on English language voice-over is under way).

(The narration sounds good, even if you don't understand Spanish!)

Sub Commandante Marcos banters with a crowd of enthralled children as he tells a political parable based around the story of a farting rock that travels the world with the help of the children of the Zapatista Autonomous School.A delightful sideline to the 6th Zapatista 'InterGalactica' Congress, with international guests and visitors from all over the world in consultation with representatives from peasant communities in the Zapatista 'Liberated Zones' in Chiapas, in southern Mexico.
Community Radio Station 2NimFM has the good fortune to be in touch with Julie Webb. Julie is an independent freelance journalist who has been sending sound files including these exclusive sessions with the Zapatista leader, Sub-Commandante Marcos, to 2NimFM via the internet within hours of them taking place.
This particular session is a gem. Marcos is famous in Mexico for his political fables, parables and allegories that are influenced by the decades he spent as a guerilla living clandestinely with the peasant communities of the Lacandon jungles of Chiapas, near the Guatemalan border.
 

[Perhaps his most famous creation is Durito  - . Durito (which is also Spanish for "tough little guy") is a dung beatle, versed in Hegelian philosophy, who Marcos caught stealing his tobacco one day. Durito gives Marcos lots of advice on Mexican and International politics, although Durito occasionally becomes impassioned and Quixotically rides out to be a champion for social justice on a tame tortoise called 'Pegasus'.  The tales of Durito can be found at http://www.actlab.utexas.edu/~zapatistas/sim.html]

Enjoy

In his speech El 'Sup' addresses the struggle of the Yaqui Indians, in the Northeast of Mexico. While most 'Westerners' have only heard of the Yaqui Indians through the writings of Carlos Castaneda, describing his experiences with a Yaqui Shaman ("Don Juan - a Yaqui Way of Knowledge") Marcos describes the historical struggles of the Yaqui Indians, not only spiritually, but historically  - for cultural survival, and at this time, their struggle for land and even more importantly, water.

Sounding confident of the outcomes he explains the differences in Fretilin's policies to those of the opposition parties, the problems that have confronted Fretilin, and the aspirations of the Timorese people. Da Silva lived as an exile in Australia because of the Indonesian invasion in the 1970s, and was once questioned by the Northern Territory Police for his role in maintaining a clandestine radio transmitter in Australia which was the main means of contact with the Fretilin forces fighting the Indonesian occupation of East Timor.

Economic crippling and the Australian Oil Grab http://nimbinradiomedia.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=225958# Paul Cleary, author of a book about  the Timor Gap treaty betwen the governenment of Australia and that of East Timor. Following; a review of the  book from Eureka Street:

"On the Timor Sea, Alkatiri was a dogged and formidable foe for the Australians and for his trouble, he earned some extraordinarily hostile treatment. Cleary says the Australian government so disliked him that when the treaty was finally ready in 2006, Australia suggested that the foreign ministers of each country sign the deal, in the presence of their prime ministers, in order to avoid having Alkatiri sign it with Howard

This final agreement â the Treaty on Certain Maritime Arrangements in the Timor Sea â was a success for Timor, in that it was able to claw back a better share of resources. Timorâs resource share rose from 22 per cent to 60 per cent and revenue increased from 8.4 billion dollars to 24 billion dollars over the lifetime of the resources.

But from the disputed BCL fields, Timor gained nothing. These are the same fields from which Australia, since 1999, had been reaping $1 million per day."

Paul Cleary speaks with 2NimFM about the economic policies of the competing parties in the current Timor - Leste ( Timor of the East ) elections, coming up  this 30 of June.

On May 27, the 20-year concession to broadcast over the state-owned Channel 2 airwave, which had been granted to multi-millionaire Marcel Granierâs RCTV, expired. The Chavez government made the decision, in accordance with laws established by a pre-Chavez government, not to renew RCTVâs concession, but instead to use the channel to establish a new public TV station, Venezuelan Social Television (TVes). Opposition forces organised protest demonstrations which were widely reported throughout the western media. No mention was  made of the pro-Chavez demonstrations which brought out nearly ten times more people, applauding the government action.

There's this strange gawky looking guy wandering thru Nimbin with his guitar hanging over his shoulder, and I'm on the way to the studio to do my weekly webcrawl show. "You lurking, or looking for a gig, or what?"
 "No man, I heard there was a radio round here somewhere, thought I'd check it out ... "  What else could I do? I sat him in front of a microphone, strapped him in and hung a harp round his neck. Aha! Got me a real live punk rocker here, from Oregon; Purple-heartland of grunge. The only X generationist to do a passable Dylan imitation, and who knows who Hunter S. Thomson was. And then I nearly fell off my chair when he did strange and unusual things to Don McClean's "American Pie" ...

I drove out to Nimbin on a tip that I'd find good musicians to jam with and some good "herbal inspiration" if you know what I mean. When I get to town, my bass player's gone off to Sydney and I find myself alone in the coffee shop next door. Suddenly, a sound catches my ears... It's NIM FM 102.3 and it's really groovy! I ask the barista "Where's the local radio station, man?" He points me across the street and I'm on my way. When I walk in the door, this punker chick introduces me to this gawky, strange looking guy with two turntables and a microphone. "I've got a disc here you might want to play, man..." He replies "A disc? Dude, how about you come down to the station tomorrow and play live on the air?" What else could I do? He sat me in front of a microphone the next day, threw some heaphones on his head, and man... I thought I was sitting next to Howard Stern or something! Sheesh... It was awesome. Besides, he liked Bob Dylan and knew all about Hunter S. Thompson. The whole radio show went great (except when I fell out of my chair while trying to play Don McClean's "American Pie".)

NimFM News  Monday 7 May 2007.

It's been a big Mardi-Grass weekend.

 Most of the big time media ask Michael Balderstone & other stale old names like that about what happened, so I decided to ask somebody different for a change.

  I take you now to the Oasis Cafe for an interview with Pot Art Tattoos guru, Space.

Tk 13

 NimFM's Paul Skull was on the ground @ Peace Park @ the Bong Throwing @ the Hemp Olympics on Saturday, to report that the
Winner was Nim-FM's own Gary from Pigphattandbumnutts

(See Skull's full report including photos at NimFM's newly renovated website at www.nimfm.org/news , then click on Saturday 5 in the archives.

 Skull was also at the Grand Parade on Sunday & was blown away by the color of the event. The particularly good weather over the weekend enabled him to get 3 stunning photos. My favourite was the Ganja fairy stiltwalker in a spectrum halo from the lens. (see photo at top of podcast posting)

 & today on Monday morning he got some pic's of the clean-up.

 A picture paints a thousand words, so listeners should go to NimFM's website to view them all on

Nimbin

Recently we reported that the Hemp Embassy was undergoing a facelift. So how's it going? I went down there today to bring you the latest.

Tk 12 ... talking to artist Elsbeth Balderstone 

 & speaking of Mardi-Grass

The new program has turned up, even a few days before the start of Mardi-Grass which is good.

This program was the cause of intense stress at Hemp Embassy HQ, but now it's done & out. You can pick up a free copy from the Embassy & just about everywhere else in town.

 New film features the tragic end of a well known Nimbinite.

At a solidarity function in Canberra, Saturday April 10 Lisa MacDonald talks about the last Australian brigade to Venezuela. Part of the brigade's agenda was to observe the Presidential elections last December.  Lisa describes the fraud-proofed voting system developed by the Venezuelans, making one wonder why it has not been adopted universally. Then she describes her experience of the now famous "Barrio 23 de Enero", a suburban neighbourhood that has become a self managing community after running the police out  of town. Lisa tells of how they cope with social problems without police intervention.

The colorful street trade is THE main attraction of the village. If that element gets removed, Nimbin indeed will lose its main income, tourists spending considerable dollars while in Nimbin. Legal foods, drinks, accomodation, bakery, general store buys, hotel, entertainment, the list is long enough to claim that almost every business needs the tourist dollar to stay open.

What happens when Bono meets old Australian rocker Normie Rowe? Normie is impressed by Bono's canny investment in a computer war-game and wants a piece of the action, along with a few Indonesian Generals. An acoustic version of the 'Bono Song' by American country blues singer, Daddy Cool follows. 5 minutes,

Bono's company, Elevation Partners, has contributed 300 million dollars to develop this game which is a simulated invasion of Venezuela with a high level of ultra-violence. Pandemic is also funded by the Pentagon to develop computer simulated training exercises for the US military.

Sahe da Silva is the official spokesperson for Timor Leste's governing Fretilin Party in NSW Australia. He was motivated to work with Fretilin after the misrepresentation of that party and its top officials in the Australian Press, after the riots and forced resignation of the Prime Minister in the middle of last year.  Community Radio station 2NimFM caught him on the phone just before he left for East Timor, and only a few hours after the news of the trial and sentencing of Rogerio Lobato broke. Sahe deals with some of the myths and misconceptions about East Timor in the Australian media.

Mari Alkatiri, General Secretary to East Timor's governing Fretilin Party, and former Prime Minister, grants an exclusive interview to community radio station 2NimFM. Mari Alkatiri says he is pursuing legal action against the Australian ABC Four Corners program for the defamatory story that he was 'arming death squads', and which led to pressures which forced his resignation as Prime minister last year. He will also be providing evidence of two attempted coups against him, and foreign involvement in these attempts. He talks about his confidence in the Fretilin party's ability to win the upcoming elections, his willingness to stand for Prime Minister, if requested, and the success of his administration in securing the best possible outcome for East Timor to exploit its oil resources, and how the East Timorese economy is about to take off.

(Unfortunately there were some problems with setting the correct sound levels for recording an international phone call, so the sound quality leaves something to be desired. The interview can be heard well enough to be transcribed, however).

(2NimFM Webcrawl Interview Dec. 10 2006) http://nimbinradiomedia.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=161113#
Depending on how one defines a coup, Fiji last Tuesday had its
fifth or sixth coup (depending on what you call a coup), this time led by Fiji's military commander,Commodore Frank Bainimarama.
But in Fiji, things are never quite what they seem.
Specialist in Pacific media and journalism and their contexts, Dr
Mark Hayes, is a very close observer of the Pacific Region and Fiji,
as well as a frequent traveller Out There. Back in late April, 2006, Mark predicted the outcome of the 2006 Fiji election, a return of the government led by now ousted Prime Minister, Laisenea Qarase  who was himself installed as Interim  Prime Minister by Commodore Bainimarama in the middle of 2000.

Dr Hayes does a weekly Pacific News Wrap - 'Mo oe mai i le Pasifika (For you, from the Pacific)' - on Mondays for the subscriber-only alert and digest service, The Daily Briefing. Last week, he did daily UpDates on the developing Fiji crisis, drawing on his extensive sources and contacts.

Dr Hayes never goes to the resorts in Fiji. He plunges into Suva and surrounds, talks with and, more importantly, listens to, his array of well placed and astute local observers, and with  a lot of
historical, anthropological, political, and sociological reading,
stirs the mix, and tries to make accurate sense of it all.

This homecoming Queen doesn't have a gun, but she has a enough attitude to take care of a dozen country towns like Nimbin. She wields emotional honesty with a talent for strong lyric. A raw, unplugged live performance with several of her signature tunes, that make her a favorite to a new generation.

MP3 version of Peter Murphy's outline of the shadowy forces destabilising East Timor, (see below) with an interview Celine (who spent 15 months in East Timor) on how Timorese women are trying to deal with the distortions imposed on East Timorese society in a post conflict setting.

Peter Murphy, director of the SEARCH Foundation, talks about the destabilisation of East Timor. This deliberate destabilisation has finally been recognised by the Fretilin Central Committee which issued a report and a press release to that effect on November18, 2006.

"A pattern of deliberate destabilisation is emerging from the ongoing violence in Timor Leste over the past 4 to 5 years. What are the dynamics of this instability, and who are the shadowy figures behind it? What is Australia's true role? Peter Murphy of the SEARCH foundation gives a careful, sober analysis, informed with the expertise of experience as a worker for Timorese independence extending back to the Indonesian invasion in 1975 Part of his involvement was a role in setting up  the clandestine transmitter  just outside  Darwin in 1976  which enabled international supporters to maintain a communications link with Fretilin guerillas inside East Timor, for several years. Peter talks about the Fretilin Party, whose supporters have been the main target for the recent violence, and the prospects of the Fretilin for next year's elections."]]> Interview Tue, 21 Nov 2006 02:04:00 GMT http://nimbinradiomedia.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=153716# East Timor, Timor Leste, Women 2NimFM The struggle of Timorese Women Clean Latin Radical Nov. 11 4-pak news roundup - Cuba and Venezuela - 4 interviews http://nimbinradiomedia.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=153712# Week ending November 11

"Bono's Creed of Greed"  -  a pilot launch of one of several songs being generated around Bono's tour of Australia in November 2006. Politically and socially aware Australians are preparing a very warm, and politically controversial, welcome for the mega-pop-star of the Band U2. Bono is an active member of the board of a company("Pandemic") that develops war game simulations for the Pentagon to train its troops. One of the spin-offs is a game about to be released commercially to civilians, called "Mercenaries II - World in Flames". It simulates an invasion of Venezuela by xternally financed mercenary bands with detailed maps of Venezuela and the capital city, Caracas. The motive is oil, and the game encourages players to think that they are overthrowing an oil hungry 'dictator', very obviously modelled on Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Chavez, far from being a dictator, commands huge popular and democratic support. At every constitutional crisis provoked by the US (including coup attempts) he has bounced back merrily with elections, Since the turn of the century, he has consistently improved his majority vote, now rating somewhere between 70 and 80 percent. His popularity ratings are still rising. (Might have something to do with the fact that he is investing oil revenues into social programs and sustainable devlopment ...and the consistent 10 percent growth rate of the Venezuelan economy since he introduced 'socialistic' programs of government investment,since the 1990s ... ).

Clearly the game  is part of a massive Psy-ops operation by the US government establishment to crank up support for an intervention in Venezuela.

Bono refuses to respond to requests to rethink the release of the game. Despite claims to having 'social activist' credentials, his endorsement of this game proves that really, it's all posturing. Bono has disgraced himself and alienated fans on earlier occasions: Once (during the 90s) by taking his huge earnings offshore to avoid paying taxes that could go to the Irish people, (perhaps to build schools and hospitals?) and again by becoming one of the heaviest copyright cops on the Internet. ('We don't want anyone hearing us before they've paid ... !").  We know where he is coming from, so don't be confused by where he says he's been;  he certainly doesn't want us to know where he lives. Watch this space for more developments, more deep background on Bono, more musical sketches for him and his fans and the very, very, warm welcome being prepared for him on his Australian tour.

Our host John's back from the ABC for this Grand Final edition.

There's Frank too, even tho he's a little bit late, plus another voice makes an appearance in his absence the Demon's humble podcaster, me, Ian.

                This is the last footy show for a couple of month's, until next footy season, so tune in.

                There's news of all the AFL Grand Finals thru-out the land of Oz, plus how your favourite player went in this year's Brownlow medal for the 'Best & Fairest' player in the land. 

                However there is one language warning mid-program as things go all wrong, but the lesson from this for all you up & coming community radio presenters is 'wear your headphones'.

                The Demons footy show says 'Thank you' to our loyal listeners plus a fond farewell till next footy season.

 

PS for all our overseas listeners who may not be up on the latest AFL; West Coast won the Grand Final against the Swans this year in yet another thrilling finish between these 2 teams.

In an interview with the Portugese magazine "Expresion", Ana Pessoa, a senior Minister in the Fretilin government of East Timor expressed  her misgivings about the an Australian intervention in East Timor a month before the resignation of the then Prime Minister, Mari Alkatiri. Until recently, the background to the destabilisation of East Timor went unreported in the Australian press, and the blame unthinkingly laid on Mari Alkatiri. A recent SBS Dateline documentary, led by John Martinkus, finally gives Alkatiri his voice, and seems to vindicate him, supporting suggestions that he was 'set up' by foreign interests. Much of the Dateline documentary follows the lines of investigation indicated by this interview with Ana Pessoa.

2NimFM Latin Radical, Sunday September 3.

Lara Pullin responds to the latest update on the Death Squad killings in El Salvador. 13 more terror killings of FMLN community workers and activists in as many weeks. The conservative ARENA party minority coalition sees and hears no evil. But this is not surprising as its founder, Roberto D'Aubuisson set up the Death Squads of the 1980s and ordered the assasination of Archbishop Romero in 1980. The FMLN is calling for the UN to intervene and review the failure of the ARENA government to comply with the terms of the peace agreement negotiatied with the FMLN in 1992, atthe end of a 12 year civil war.

An exclusive interview with James Dunn who has recently returned from East Timor. Jim was invited by the new, recently appointed East Timorese President Jose Ramos to come to East Timor as an experienced advisor and negotiator for the new East Timorese government, controlled by the Fretilin party. Jim has worked in East Timor before as a human rights observer for the United Nations, and has written a book about East Timor called "East Timor - a rough passage to Independence". Jim Dunn was the Australian Consul General in East Timor shortly before the Indonesian invasion in 1975 that curtailed its attempt to become independent.

Interview with Lara Pullin shortly after news that ultra-right wing death squads in El Salvador have returned murdering the family of a famous FMLN radio announcer. Mariposa was the code name for a teenage announcer on the clandestine guerilla Radio Venceremos. For 12 years the portable radio transmitter and the FMLN guerillas running it, evaded capture during the  Civil War in El Salvador through the 1970s and 1980s.  Mariposa ('The Butterfly') boosted the morale of the FMLN guerillas who fought the corrupy Salvadoran military (backed by the US government to the tune of 2 million $US a day). In the November 1989 offensive they fought the Salvadoran government military forces to a stalemate. In 1992 a peace was negotiated and the FMLN participated in the political life of El Salvador as a legally constituted political party. The party presently controls around 40 percent of the seats in the National Congress and many of the Municipal councils. The right wing ARENA party, whose leaders and founders financed death squads, assassinated an archbishops, and ordered the massacre of entire villages during the 1970s and 1980s is in government today as a minority party leading a coalition government. But the situation in El Salvador recently seems to have reverted to the worst days of the so-called civil war, with police firing on demonstrating students. Death Squads, have made a comeback with deat threats and ritual murder employed as a tried and true tactic of the Right wing neo-conservatives. Hear how the friends of legendary radio announcer Mariposa around the world are reacting to the news of the gruesome torture and murder of her parents, and to the present day wave of repression against the long suffering people of El Salvador.

Cat and Mouse with a Cheezy grin. Michael has been prescribed some legal prescription drugs and is late again. The show waits with Bobalong and Goddess passing titbits of informative information on the Art of Feeding Mice.

More advice from 8th time 'drug offender' Rock, reporting back from the first Court appearance. He invokes the 'religious defense'.

Michael has read the coverage by the regional media monopoly rag which took time out from cattle shows and roads to do a piece on the foundation of the Church of the Holy Smoke. Michael is incensed at the form of conservative outrage. The international 4:20 Dateline driven 4:20 ceremonial lightening up is equated (in the local rag) with 'burning money'. The Goddess picks up the ball and begins to run with it. "Couldn't we ask for donations from our acolytes?" the Goddess suggests. Is this the beginning of a Sacred Herb Tax? Watch this space. Suggestions on the various currencies that might be burned. Israeli sheckels are out (remember the Golden Calf), rendered immediately soggy.

Moving on to the Muslim refusal to do Sports Drug Tests ... and the Drug News rolls on with Michael's seemingly inexhaustible supply of Drug Stories. Does he have a drug fuelled Think Tank working for him?

Nimbin Poetry World Cup 2006. Preview. Watch this space for a podcast of the Grand Final.

Miles Merril performs "The World Cafe"

Performance Poet Miles Merril master of slam, with Hip-hop fan and technophile Donne Restom and World Poetry Cup finalist, give an exclusive interview to community radio 2NimFM. These two dazzling performers (who travelled from Sydney for the event) share their thoughts on the differences between performance and written poetry, the future of poetry, technological change, hip-hop and the Sydney scene. Not to be missed.

The interview is preceded by a 4 minute recording of Miles Merril's live performance in the World Poetry Cup heats, of "The World Cafe" - where a negro, an Australian, and an Aboriginal meet ... sounds like a  one of those jokes, or a scene from Crocodile Dundee ...  but wait for the punch line ...

Just a small sample of the stupendous, outrageous, irreverent and sublime performances that filled the streets last weekend in Nimbin.

Douglas Broad, Bush poet didn't quite make the finals, which gives you some idea of the quality of the performances at the Nimbin World Poetry Cup this year. This is a classic 'bush' poem, based (according to Doug) on a true story; an account of a two-up game that had the audience on the edge of its seat. If you haven't ever experienced a two-up game, this is the next best thing to being there.

Venezuelan Viewpoint.

GreenLeft Weekly stringers Jim and Coral report each week from the capital of Venezuela Caracas, with progress reports on the development of the Venezuelan Bolivarian Revolution, under the tutelage of the government of President Hugo Chavez.

In this week's report, Jim gives us the real story on the tumultuous National Trade Union meeting, where apparently, chairs were thrown, and the presence (and tolerance) of anti-government trade unions is still a factor in decision making processes, that are now, increasingly, in the hands of  the people (workers) who are the most critical to maintaining the processes of production.

We hear the latest policy decisions by the Venezuelan  government on OPEC. The Chavez government is using Venezuela's access to huge oil reserves, to favour  Third World countries in an attempt to break the hegemony of the developed Northern hemisphere over the less developed South, and guide them into more sustainable economic models.

Jim translates and summarises a statement by Venezuelan President Chavez about the nature of US capitalism and a wonderful explication of how the fate of earth's future may well depend on the future of the Bolivarian revolution - sustainable economic models are essential to global and environmental survival. The remaining oil reserves on the planet should be committed to this principle.

A quick run down on how the 'old school' of Venezuela's plutocratic elites is provocatively, trying to generate student unrest in the Universities, in an attempt to (yet again) destabilise the Chavez government before the upcoming OPEC conference and Presidential elections.

Hemp Show Pt. 1. The Big Joint goes to Canberra!

Michael, Gerard, and Sam get back from their week in Canberra, in the nick of time to give a hot hot hot report for this week's show. The Hemp Ambassadors and Diplomats were warmed by their reception at Parliament House, where they were feted by the cream of the Australian political system. (Some muttered asides about the contrast with north coast NSW attitudes ... ) The Goddess knocks 'em out on the lawns of Parliament House, where the Big Joint is reassembled for a benign and friendly, interested crowd. Friendly campfire conversations with the Canberra cops, who seem to be quite human, compared to their north coast brethren.

More of the unholy meeting of the Ambassadors of the Nimbin Hemp Embassy, bearers of the Big Joint, with the Movers and Shakers and Makers of Australian political decisions, at Parliament House, Australia. Why did the security personnel Parliament House in Canberra ask Sam to drop his trousers, and why doesn't he wear underpants?

    Inspired by the impact of their encounter with Big Politics the Hemp Ambassadors and Diplomats decide to start a new Religion. Find out how to join the Church of the Holy Smoke.

PlaySpace, and Jack's back from his Easter 'break' at Lake Cowal where Barrick's mines are heading for a big bust on their mining venture. Jack has the real dope on the company, the lake, and the sacred land of Lake Cowal.

Bob moves us on to the latest outrage against the police presence in Nimbin, after some post-Anzac Day ruminations. While we celebrated the iconic history of Anzac, local authorities were planning the removal  of the last surviving remnants of an iconic piece of local Nimbin history - under police protection, of course.

Bob rarely needs an excuse to study the behaviour of the police, and he shares his observations of the behaviour patterns of the imported swat squad uniforms  - which seems to be becoming assimilated into a kind of driftward mindset.

A bit of sci-fi speculation on human behaviour in general, and not quite snide comments of Australian fashion week, winding up with the latest update on the Mulgum House affair. Great radio!

The full interview with Ian Brown. Ian takes us on a tour of Australia's tropical North. With a background soundscape of tropical rainforest storm sounds we hear his travelogue and experiences of life in the far north of tropical Australia, and images of the rich and varied flora and fauna as seen through the sensitive eyes of a trained environmentalist. Click here for a text version of his Cape York Peninsula experience.

" ...Cape York  -far northern Qld. Hi, I'm Ian Browne, also known at Nimbin Radio as Shamrock. Having spent many a heat rash filled day in Darwin and the surrounding tropical savanna and glorious monsoon rainforest ecosystems, studying, playing-rejoicing in Australia's extreme diversity, I can only lick my lips at the thought of indulging in a journey through Cape York's sparse tropical landscapes. From its sparkling snow like sand dunes, to its tropical; almost equatorial type rainforests and wetlands, reminiscent of nearby Papua New Guinea with its shared flora and fauna species. Yes, sheer paradise indeed, but not for the faint hearted. Suffocating tropical heat, sinister fiery storms and crocs the size of a pair of the surfing King of Tonga's long boards."

Bob does the Easter Playspace solo this year, while Jack is away at Lake Cowal trying to save sacred aboriginal sites and wildlife from the multinational corporate gold mining desecration taking place there.

Respectfully irreligious, Bob does some delving of his own, into the vestiges of the Gnostic tradition in the history of the Christian Church   -  who was Philip? Why don't we hear a 'Gospel according to Philip'? Surely this exclusion wasn't politically motivated. Or was it?  And surely the persona of Mary Magdalen wasn't 'doctored' to fit official doctrine?  Keep your fingers crossed and hold your buns.

Bob and Jack in top form. Comment and coverage on the important and the bizarre  - like Uranium, and the mining thereof, aaand the police presence in Nimbin! Bob, obviously inspired (possibly by his eclectic choice in music) weighs in with some weird and wacky news items  - Genital piercings in the cemetery(!?)  - the historical meaning of Easter in the Coptic Church? Some observations from Jack on Windfarms vs uranium, and the Chinese way, and some absurdities concerning Plutonium.

More absurdities radiating from the YellowCake Planet of Plutonium, and a walk with Jack on 'The Wild Side'  - he reviews a 50 year old novel with a contemporary presence, spiced with Latin American Literary references. The boys drift off into speculation on Alien lives and coexistence with the bizarre, until Jack brings us back to earth with his fine vision of Lake Cowal as sacred Aboriginal land, and the current corporate desecration.

Larrikin sensibility at its best.

The Blue Knob Community, just outside Nimbin makes radical protest fun, with this wicked fundraiser for the aboriginal elder whose sacred sites are being trashed by one of the most venal mining companies in the world. And a busload of Nimbin activists are hitting the road to Lake Cowal for an Easter Corroboree and radical action. Get the real low down on the criminal vandalising of Lake Cowal  - a few ounces of gold in exchange for 1000s of tons of Cyanide, and a handful of jobs that will disappear as soon as the mining company moves on to track the next vein. Get the views of local activists and enjoy splendid musical talent, which forms the sonic backdrop to powerful statements of outrage:
