December 12th 2013 Glue meat, Iraq & Afganastan Wars and WHY?

The club apologizes for not posting a notification of cancellation of its November 2013 meeting.  This due to the secretary's absence overseas and lack of time for others to substitute adequately, for reasons not needed here to be aired.

The last offering for the evening and lasted for more than an hour and a half.  The two things to bring to our attention from this film were:-

• The abhorrent incident in 2007 when alleged camera men were gunned down on instruction to the crew of an Apache gunship in Baghdad.  This led to the public awareness of Wikileaks ...

•  In 2010 a flotilla of relief  ran the blockade of Gaza -- food, medical supplies etc. -- being intercepted in the Mediterranean for the relief of a Palestinian territory by the Israeli army.  The brutal treatment of the ships complement.

 The thought provocation after the viewing, relates to what our secretary said commenting on an earlier meeting's related topic.   People with questionable claim to refuge, running from parts within the equatorial zone where conflict is an everyday event.   The secretary's opinion these people are not made of the stuff advantageous ... when they won't defend their Home Lands.  Also, the dubious sincerity of their coming ... and modes of arrival; Manus Island's internee Reza Berati's death and the Iranian government's reaction, causes one (specif. an Australian born national subject)  to wonder if these would be insurgents  are not sponsored (or assisted) by foreign governments.
Since the influential "left field" media has imbued us (dumb downed gentiles) with the wonderful endowments of multicultural diversification.  Why question immigration, boarder protection and internecine(sic) conflicts ... this film at least prompted reflection.

CONCLUSION with a vote of thanks for the secretary evenings events. 

ADDENDUM.
From 2014 sound files will be downloaded from "FreeMediaGuide.com".  The format will be Mp3, how long sound files can be accessed from there has become uncertain. The club has been supported till now, but indication after proceeding to login ... shows a subscription may be required -- the free trial period is coming to an end, or a change of conditions to host.

Ever since blogging the meeting 11th July last, google.sites has been a frustration.  Disallowing uploads of voice files for replay.  Could it be an article "Stop The Snoops" APC (magazine) Sept. 13 gives explanation.  If so, some where within earlier files(?) because of apparent umbrage, causation for time wasting annoyance imposed trying to achieve -- at what conspiring level (access point) an by whom(?) -- the unachievable.    

The cheapest hosting (above) plan is well(!) beyond what the club can afford.  Disappointing if termination eventuates as the club's contribution surely is not extravagant of that(!) media's resources.
