Pro nuclear marketing push under way in Australia
I really thought that it wouldn’t start until March 2011. Seeing that the ALP national conference is not on until later this year.
But – it’s off and away already. The push to market the IDEA of nuclear power to Australians has now begun, with top marketing men Martin Ferguson and Paul Howes leading the way. And of course, BHP Billiton is right in there. But at least it is CEO Marius Kloppers’ paid job to market uranium mining. The other two are supposed to have the interests of the Australian workers and their families at heart, not the interests of the nuclear lobby. – Christina Macpherson

The Road to War brings a sharp focus to why it is not in Australia’s best interest to be dragged into a war with China which will almost inevitably go nuclear very quickly. The filmmaker has interviewed some of Australia’s senior foreign policy analysts who have vast experience behind them in analysing what really is going on here as the United States rattles its sabres with China. And sets us up to be its proxy, like the poor Ukranians have been fed into the Meatgrinder. So America can remain the Top Dog. The Road to War reveals how the United States through its spy base at Pine Gap and by stationing six nuclear capable B52 bombers in the Top End (without permission from the traditional owners) is making Australia a prime nuclear target if the current war of words suddenly melts down into full scale war.
The Road to War shows the implicit connection between Carbon emissions (the US military uses a whopping 70% of America’s annual petroleum to move its armies and vast War Machine around the globe to its 800+ military bases..but under a loophole wangled at Kyoto, the US military does not have to report its C02 annual emissions). The Road to War starts screening at selected cities and regional centres in March. See the trailer end for details.
