    INDIGENOUS GENOCIDE, CLIMATE GENOCIDE AND HOLOCAUST DENIAL BY WHITE AUSTRALIA

    Australia has an over 2 century history of involvement in
    genocide. However this appalling genocide history is kept hidden by
    a sustained process of Australian holocaust denial and genocide denial

    Before going further it must be clearly stated that the term "Genocide"
    used here is "Genocide" as precisely defined by Article 2 of the UN
    Genocide Convention as follows: "In the present Convention, genocide
    means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy,
    in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group,
    as such: a) Killing members of the group; b) Causing serious bodily
    or mental harm to members of the group; c) Deliberately inflicting on
    the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical
    destruction in whole or in part; d) Imposing measures intended to
    prevent births within the group; e) Forcibly transferring children
    of the group to another group" (see: http://www.edwebproject.org
    /sideshow/genocide/con vention.html ).

    Further, in assessing deaths from particular policies of invasion,
    occupation and dispossession one notes that deaths can be violent
    (from bombs and bullets) or non-violent (from deprivation and
    deprivation-exacerbated disease). Both kinds of avoidable death (death
    that should not have happened) are included within the term "excess
    death" used below (see "Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since
    1950", G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 2007: http://mwcnews.net/Gideon-Polya/
    and "Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950 (2008
    lecture)": http://globalavoidablemortality.blogspot.com/2008/ 08/
    body-count-global-avoidable-mortality.html ).

    The following catalogue of Australian involvement in Genocide - as
    defined by the UN Genocide Convention and notably in British- and
    American-imposed genocides - is given below in roughly chronological
    order from 1788 (the year of European Invasion and First Settlement)
    to 2009. A key reference is my book "Body Count. Global avoidable
    mortality since 1950"; other relevant books are Chalk, F. and
    Jonassohn, K. (1990), "The History and Sociology of Genocide. Analyses
    and Case Studies" (Yale University Press, New Haven & London); Tatz,
    C. (2003), "With Intent to Destroy. Reflecting on Genocide" (Verso,
    London); Blum, W. (2006), "Rogue State, A guide to the world's only
    superpower" (Zed Books, London); and my book "Jane Austen and the
    Black Hole of British History. Colonial rapacity, holocaust denial
    and the crisis in biological sustainability" (GM. Polya, Melbourne,
    1998 & 2008: http://janeaustenand.blogspot.com/ ). The following list
    is an updated and amplified version of that originally published in
    MWC News as "Australia's secret genocide history. La Trobe, "Bundoora
    Eucalyptus" and black crimes of white Australia" on MWC News, 30
    April 2008: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/22128/42/ .

    1. 18th-19th century Aboriginal Genocide (the Indigenous Aboriginal
    population dropped from about 1 million to 0.1 million in the first
    century after invasion in 1788).

    2. Tasmanian Aboriginal Genocide (the "full-blood" Indigenous
    population dropped from 6,000 to zero in 1803-1776; however there are
    several thousand "mixed race" decendants of Tasmanian and Mainland
    Aborigines still living in Tasmania today).

    3. British Indian Genocide (post-invasion excess deaths 0.6 billion,
    1757-1837; 0.5 billion, 1837-1901 under Queen Victoria; 0.4 billion,
    1901-1947, and 1.5 billion in all - or 1.8 billion if you include
    the so-called Native States of the British Raj).

    4. European Chinese Genocide (10-100 million deaths in the European
    imperialism-driven Tai Ping rebellion period; Australia was involved
    in suppressing the Boxer rebellion).

    5. Maori Genocide (the Maori population dropped from 0.1-0.2 million
    in 1800 to 42,000 in 1893; Australia was involved in the 19th century
    Maori wars).

    6. African Genocide (scores of millions perished over 5 centuries
    of European slavery and colonialism; Australians participated in the
    Sudan War, 1881-1898 and the Boer War in South Africa, 1899-1902).

    7. Pacific Genocide (there was a catastrophic population decline
    due to introduced disease and slavery; thus 40,000 Fijians died
    from measles out of a population of 150,000 in 1876; "blackbirding"
    slavery was conducted by Australians in the late 19th century, with
    the Melanesian slaves - "Kanakas" - being taken to sugar plantations
    in the Australian state of Queensland).

    8. Boer (Afrikaaner) Genocide (1899-1902; 28,000 Afrikaaner women and
    children died in British concentration camps; Australians participated
    in the Boer War as immortalized in the movie "Breaker Morant" ).

    9. Armenian Genocide (1.5 million killed; the Australian invasion
    of Gallipoli as part of an Anglo-French force in 1915 helped to
    precipitate this atrocity; indeed April 24 is Armenian Genocide Day
    and April 25 is the day of the Australia invasion in 1915 and also a
    sacred war dead remembrance day for Australians and New Zealanders -
    it is called Anzac Day after the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps
    (ANZAC) which stormed ashore on that first Anzac Day at Gallipoli
    in 1915).

    10. Bengali Genocide (6-7 million perished in the "forgotten" man-made
    Bengal Famine atrocity in Bengal and adjoining provinces in British
    India, 1943-1945; Australians were there and indeed the Governor
    of Bengal in 1944 was an Australian, R.G. Casey; for a recent BBC
    broadcast about the WW2 Bengal Famine involving me, Nobel Laureate
    Professor Amartya Sen of Harvard University, medical historian Dr
    Sanjoy Bhattacharya of University College London and other scholars
    see: http://www.open2.net/thingsweforgot/ bengalfamine_programme.html
    ).

    11. British post-1950 Third World Genocide (1950-2005 excess deaths
    in countries subject to British occupation as a major occupier in
    the post-war era totalled 727 million; Australia has the same Head
    of State as the UK and continues to be a loyal military ally of the
    UK in Occupied Iraq and Occupied Afghanistan).

    12. US post-1950 Third World Genocide (1950-2005 excess deaths in
    countries subject to US occupation as a major occupier in the post-war
    era totalled 82 million; Australia participated in all post-1950 US
    Asian Wars in Korea, Indo-China, Iraq and Afghanistan with Indigenous
    Asian excess deaths now totalling 25 million).

    13. Australian Colonial Genocide (1950-2005 excess deaths in countries
    subject to Australian occupation as a major occupier in the post-war
    era, namely Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands totalled 2.1
    million).

    14. 20th century Aboriginal Genocide (total excess deaths are
    clearly of the order of 1 million; 0.1 million Stolen Generations
    Aboriginal children forcibly removed from their Mothers in the 19th
    and 20th centuries; excess deaths in the 11 years of the Bush-ite
    Howard Coalition Government totalled 90,000 for 1996-2007; currently
    about 9,000 Indigenous Australians die avoidably each year out of a
    population of about 0.5 million as detailed in item #18 below).

    The following Australian genocide involvements in this catalogue of
    horrors are ongoing.

    15. Palestinian Genocide (post-1967 excess deaths 0.3 million,
    post-1967 under-5 infant deaths 0.2 million and 7 million refugees;
    with bi-partisan agreement Australia provides diplomatic, financial
    and haven support for Israeli state terrorism - even when directed
    against tens of thousands of Australian citizens as in Lebanon in
    mid-2006 - and up to life imprisonment for anyone giving support
    to the Hamas Party that overwhelmingly won the 2006 Occupied
    Palestinian elections; Australia makes contributions to racist Zionist
    colonization - i.e. to the Palestinian Genocide - tax deductible:
    http://www.greenleft.org.au/2008/745/3 8562 ).

    16. Iraqi Genocide (4.1 million excess deaths 1990-2009; 1.3 million
    post-invasion violent excess deaths and 1.0 million post-invasion
    non-violent excess deaths i.e. 2.3 million post-invasion violent and
    non-violent excess deaths; 0.6 million post-invasion under-5 infant
    deaths; and 5-6 million refugees; Australia has been militarily
    involved in the Iraqi Genocide since 1990; for details as of
    March 2008 see "Iraqi Genocide": http://www.brusselstribunal.org/
    Messages190308.ht m#polya ).

    17. Afghan Genocide (3-7 million post-invasion violent and non-violent
    excess deaths, 2.3 million post-invasion under-5 infant deaths, and
    4 million refugees; Australia was involved militarily in Occupied
    Afghanistan from after the US invasion in 2001).

    18. Ongoing Aboriginal Genocide (9,000 excess deaths annually; 90,000
    excess deaths in the last 11 years of Bush-ite Coalition rule;
    for details and documentation see "Aboriginal genocide. Racist
    White Australian child abuse and passive mass murder":
    http://mwcnews.net/content/view/1514 0/42/ ).

    19. Biofuel Genocide (16 million die avoidably each year but this is
    increasingly biofuel-impacted as the legislatively-mandated US, UK
    and EU biofuel perversion forces up global food prices; Australia is
    a major sugar cane grower and sugar exporter with 60% of sugar going
    to bioethanol production worldwide; Australia has biofuel-promoting
    legislation and is a major canola grower, this being a major source for
    biodiesel; for detailed and documented analysis see my Biofuel lecture
    notes: http://globalavoidablemortality.blogspot.com/2008/ 05/
    biofuel-famine-biofuel-genocide-meat.html
    and http://climateemergency.blogspot.com/
    2008/04/biof uel-famine-biofuel-genocide-and.html ).

    20. Climate Genocide (16 million die avoidably each year already
    from deprivation and deprivation-exacerbated disease; Professor
    James Lovelock FRS says that only 1 billion will survive this
    century i.e. about 10 billion (2 billion being Indians) will perish
    this century due to unaddressed climate change; on a per capita
    basis Australia is among the very worst greenhouse gas (GHG)
    polluters - in terms of 2004 figures for "fossil fuel-derived
    annual per capita CO2 pollution" Australia is about 40 times
    worse than India and 160 times worse than Bangladesh if you
    include Australia's world number 1 coal exports; for details and
    documentation see " "Climate Disruption, Climate Emergency, Climate
    Genocide & Penultimate Bengali Holocaust through Sea Level Rise":
    http://sites.google.com/site/yarravall eyclimateactiongroup/
    climate-disruption-climate-e mergency-climate-genocide-
    penultimate-bengali-hol ocaust-through-sea-level-rise ).

    Of these Australian-complicit genocides, the already-commenced Climate
    Genocide is most likely going to be the worst - with the likelihood
    of 10 billion non-Europeans perishing due to First World inaction over
    First World GHG pollution. Australia is a disproportionate contributor
    to this man-made holocaust that is largely confined to the non-European
    World. Australia is the world's biggest coal exporter, the OECD's worst
    per capita greenhouse gas (GHG) polluter and a remorseless world leader
    in annual per capita GHG pollution. "Annual per capita greenhouse gas
    (GHG) pollution" in units of "tonnes CO2-equivalent per person per
    year" (2005-2008 data) is 2.2 (India), 6.7 (the World), 11 (Europe),
    27 (the US) and 30 (Australia; or 54 if Australia's huge Exported
    CO2 pollution is included).

    Just as Australia has made Palestinian Genocide tax deductible,
    so the latest Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) of the extreme
    right wing, pro-coal, pro-war Rudd Labor Government provides
    massive, "business as usual" subsidies for GHG polluters (see
    "Pro-coal Australian Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) devalues
    Australian lives, threatens Biosphere and ignores Science ":
    http://sites.google.com/site/yarravalleycl imateactiongroup/
    latest-pro-coal-australian-emiss ions-trading-scheme-ets-devalues-
    australian-lives -threatens-biosphere-and-ignores-science-
    and-clim ate-emergency ).

    Yet politically correct racist (PC racist) Australia steadfastly
    "looks the other way" and its past and present involvements in
    the above atrocities are overwhelmingly not reported by racist,
    lying, holocaust-ignoring Mainstream media nor taught in Australia's
    schools and universities. PC racist White Australia just cannot see
    the "elephant in the room" - its continuing involvement in over 2
    centuries of horrendous genocide.

    Remarkable evidence of this Australian Holocaust Denial and
    Genocide Denial is obtained when one does a Search for the various
    genocides, specifically for the phrases "Aboriginal Genocide",
    "Indian Genocide", "Bengali Genocide", "Iraqi Genocide" etc, on
    the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) search device (see:
    http://www.abc.net.au/ ) - the result is essentially ZERO (0) related
    links found, whereas searches for these phrases on Yahoo or Google
    variously reveals hundreds to tens of thousands of URLs.

    The Australian ABC is generally regarded as the most "liberal"
    of the Mainstream media of Australia - and indeed is regarded as
    "left wing" by the generally extreme right wing journalists of the
    Murdoch and Fairfax media empires that dominate "news" reporting
    in holocaust-complicit and holocaust denying, "look the other
    way" Australia - the Land of Flies, Lies and Slies (spin-based
    untruths). It is not hard to imagine the awfulness of the other
    generally pro-coal and pro-war Australian Mainstream media in relation
    to holocaust commission, genocide commission, holocaust-ignoring
    and genocide-ignoring.

    Peace is the only way but silence kills and silence is
    complicity. Decent people are obliged to (a) inform others about these
    continuing atrocities and (b) ensure that they are not complicit
    in these crimes of genocide commission and genocide denial through
    avoidable dealings with the people, corporations and countries
    responsible for these outrages.

    Australians are trapped in a Mainstream media-imposed Orwellian dream
    and will only conceivably stop doing Genocide when they are informed
    that they are doing it. Sanctions and boycotts are urgently required
    because Australia is committing these crimes for money - and money is
    the only thing that amoral, wealth-obsessed Australia will understand.
