More Curious ... Oz Bomber faces more charges.

More interesting news from Oz , no, not the welcome news that Prime Minister John Howard will be in Washington next week and will find time in his busy schedule to receive the prestigious B'nai B'rith International Presidential Gold Medal for his "outstanding" support of Israel and the Jewish people at a ceremony in Washington on Tuesday, May 16. (Pic of Andrew Broe, and materials taken from Amundsens Home, Lord Patel's agents took)

A spokesperson for the prime minister said that Howard was "deeply honored" by the award, and that "Australia's consistent support for the State of Israel is based on principle and a profound respect for the courage and achievements of the Jewish people".

No not that ...the main interest is that non terrist bomb maker Amundsen's lawyer Andrew Broe was on ABC TV saying "It's not at all useful for anybody, including him, nor the community, for me to be speculating about the evidence and for this degree of, I think, over interest into these charges.

As I said yesterday, it is not part of the allegations of the Commonwealth Crown or the state police that he's got any affiliation with any terrorist organisation.

These offences, whilst they're under that legislation, it does not follow that even if he was convicted that he's some sort of terrorist
."

To which an unidentified journalist reasonably remarked.." How can you say it's over interest when he was found with 53 kilograms of powergel?

ANDREW BOE: "Well, what I'm saying is, whilst you're entitled to have a role in publishing matters going before the courts, there is a greater interest in the community that people charged with most serious offences are entitled a fair trial and are entitled to have the evidence that is admissible against him being led in the court and not being speculated about by either police disclosures to the media or media speculation."

This guy should come over and teach the Met about Press relations and leaking, just as Lord Stevens when he was in the Met, imported Israelis to teach his men how to kill terrorists with a single throat shot... and forgot to tell the Government, Parliament, the Press, the Public about it.

Anyway where was I ?

Ah ! John Amundsen the non-terrorist bomber (with a houseful of explosives and bombs) appeared in a Brisbane court Dressed in a brown tracksuit with his head shaven,evidently relaxed,with a slight smile as his entered the room.

The 40-year-old is facing three new charges under the Commonwealth's anti-terrorism laws of (1)preparing for a terrorist act, (2)making a threat and (3)making a hoax threat (?).

John Amundsen will re - appear in court on May the 26th.

The ABC has also learnt he allegedly sent a threat from an internet cafe.

The Queensland Government is already moving to change the laws, looking at tightening identity checks and requiring sales of explosives to be reported to authorities fortnightly.

Deputy Premier Anna Bligh said to the sound of slamming stable doors, said on ABC, "we need to find something that's workable in an everyday context, but we almost need something that's as tight as it possibly can be."

If it was a UK Minister they would have added de riguer ..."so that this sort of thing doesn't happen again".

MORE GOOD ANTIPODEAN NEWS
