Here is just a further example of how Australian Law is succumbing to USA jurisdiction.
The Australian Council for Civil Liberties has called on the Federal Government to confirm a change in policy relating to extraditing suspects who face the death penalty in the United States.
Eventually this could lead to further erosion of human rights.
In the future, if a US citizen were to be murdered in Australia, what is to stop the perpetrator from being extradited to the USA (to a state where the
death penalty exists) to be tried, convicted and sentenced to death?
Pushing the envelope further, if the US makes abortions illegal with prosecution equating to murder, doctors in Australia would be mad to risk conducting the procedures.
Despicable!
Anyone care to help with a push for a change to the Australian Constitution to explicitly exclude subservience to the US? Failing that at least WA could try and push for secession again! And if it comes down to the conservatives and the bible-toting rednecks ruling this land, Australia might just have to endure some civil unrest that would make the Vietnam protests look like a Kirribilli tea party.
