I understood that the Labor Party policy in 1966 was that, as a means of bringing the war to an end, Australia should forthwith stop the bombing of North Vietnam, it should recognise the Liberation Front as a party to negotiations and it should transform the operations in Vietnam into what are called ‘holding operations’.

For a time this was obscured by the appearance of communist dictatorship as the main source of revolutionary ideas; but communism has only been able to extend beyond the tanks of the Red Army where it has allied or identified itself with a national liberation movement. [More…]
I refer to the recent sentencing to 6 months gaol of the Arab guerrilla leader, Abdul Azzam, a member of the Palestinian Liberation Front Al Fatah. [More…]
He said: ‘Does that mean that you will no longer support the national liberation front in my country?’ [More…]
Chou En-lai answered this question by saying: ‘Well, support for a national liberation front is not interference’. [More…]
But when similar action is taken in other parts of the world it is regarded as the action of liberation forces doing what they are entitled to do. [More…]
Arab organisation, I do not find them any more appalling than the murders that took place in Beirut only recently of the leaders of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation. [More…]
Ultimately, we received acknowledgment from the Chinese officials with whom we were travelling that we ought to understand that China’s support for insurgency movements or liberation movements was a complete exception to the principles of peaceful co-existence. [More…]
In order to find out, the South East Asian diplomat said: ‘But what about the communist liberation movement that you are helping?’ [More…]
Chairman Mao said that helping a communist liberation movement was not interference. [More…]
Where indeed are the discussions on the role that China may play in the future in terms of the national liberation fronts? [More…]
If he is an honest broker, not for China, as he is reported to have said, but for Australia he should have gone to China and said: ‘It is pre-eminently in the interests of the people of this region and the world that South East Asia should be stable; that countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Burma should have the right to separate sovereignty and separate existence and not have the fear that by subversion, by the inducing of liberation fronts, that they can be destroyed; that we as their good neighbours respect their right to co-exist. ‘ [More…]
They have always sympathised with the insurgent communist liberation fronts which have created the basic insecurity of South East Asia. [More…]
In 1949 the people’s liberation army succeeded in affecting a change in government in the land mass of China. [More…]
There has been talk about recognising the National Liberation Front in Vietnam. [More…]
The National Liberation Front is talking to us now. [More…]
I presume you will no longer countenance the National Liberation Front’. [More…]
Chou En-lai said: ‘Helping a National Liberation Front is not interference ‘. [More…]
His Party has done nothing to deny the proposition put forward by some of its leaders that Australia should recognise the Palestinian Liberation Movement, which is a bloody revolutionary lot of international murderers. [More…]
Let Senator Wheeldon, by way of interjection, say now where he stands on the Palestinian Liberation Movement issue. [More…]
There is no acknowledgement of the left wing infiltration of ideas in terms of movements such as the Palestinian Liberation Movement. [More…]
-I invite Senator Mulvihill to extend his interjection by saying whether he believes that there should be representation in Australia of the Palestinian Liberation Movement. [More…]
I direct my question to the Minister for Foreign Affairs and refer to the invitation extended by Mr Hartley, a member of the Federal Executive of the Australian Labor Party, to the Palestine Liberation Organisation to set up an office in Australia. [More…]
I refer again to the provocative statement by left wing Australian Labor Party official Mr Hartley that a terrorist organisation, the Palestine Liberation Organisation, which is responsible for murder and violence in many parts of the world, is considering establishing an information office in Australia and that it would be accorded diplomatic privilege. [More…]
Does the fraternalism extend to copying the so-called liberation suit worn by West and East Africans, Maoist Chinese and Cubans? [More…]
The undersigned men and women of Australia vigorously protest against your Government’s reported provision of Government funds amounting to $150,000 to African Liberation Movements this year, which amounts to contravention of United Nations Charter and is direct interference in internal affairs of African countries. [More…]
-My question to the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs relates to a recent editorial which referred to possible aid from the Federal Budget for the African Liberation Committee. [More…]
We had some furtive report that the Government- I think that the Minister had to acknowledge this- is providing aid to the liberation movements in Africa to overthrow their colonial yoke and injustices. [More…]
But if this Government were consistent, if it believed in the right of self-determination, if it really believed in the role of self-determination, then it would be giving aid to the liberation movements in the Baltic States so that they could overthrow the savage yoke of the Soviet Union. [More…]
Apparently, the Government has one standard for the countries that have liberation movements that have Communist Chinese support and another standard for those countries that wish to overthrow the brutal yoke of the Communist countries. [More…]
We encourage ethnic and political liberation movements from Vietnam to Bangladesh to Guinea-Bissau. [More…]
As Senator Greenwood conceded, the only hope that these Baltic people have of being independent of their present oppressors- I freely concede that the Russians are their oppressors; I do not mince words about that- is in the aftermath of some cataclysm which I trust none of us here is barracking for, because the consequences of such a cataclysm would be not only the liberation of the Baltic peoples but also more likely than not the destruction of Western civilisation. [More…]
Is the Government aware of the existence of an organisation called Terrorist International, which is the fraternity of national liberation movements around the world? [More…]
Is the Government also aware that organisations such as the Black September Movement, the Japanese Red Army, the Irish Republican Army and liberation movements which have been granted financial assistance by the Commonwealth Government are members of Terrorist International? [More…]
Is the Government concerned that its policy of granting financial aid to African liberation movements raises the possibility that Australia will become tainted by association with this terrorist group? [More…]
The notes which were provided for me by the Minister state that in an article by Denis Warner in this morning’s Sydney ‘Morning Herald’- it may have been yesterday- the decision to give assistance to African liberation movements was attacked on the grounds that it would lead to support of terrorist movements. [More…]
In meeting these social and economic needs in areas such as medical assistance, education, agricultural extension services and temporary housing, Australia would be joining Canada, the Netherlands, West Germany, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway and other countries, together with the specialised agencies of the United Nations such as the Food and Agriculture Organisation, the United Nations Childrens Fund, the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organisation and the World Health Organisation in giving humanitarian assistance to the African national liberation movements. [More…]
I ask: Is not the admission by the United Nations of the Palestine Liberation Organisation into a United Nations debate a regrettable recognition by the world body that international terrorism pays? [More…]
Has the Minister read the description in the editorial of one of our Australian newspapers of the Palestine Liberation Organisation as responsible for more murderous terrorism outside Northern Ireland than any other organisation in the world? [More…]
Why did not the Government vote against the admission of the Palestine Liberation Organisation into the United Nations? [More…]
A resolution which provided for the Palestine Liberation Organisation to participate as ‘the representatives of the Palestinian people’ in plenary session during the General Assembly’s deliberations on the question of Palestine was put to the vote on 14 October. [More…]
He added that if a representative of the PLO had addressed one of those committees he would have been listened to just as closely, whether or not he was speaking for the whole of the Palestinian Arab Liberation Movement and whatever views we may have about some of the methods of that Movement.

9 titled ‘Australia’s External Aid 1 974-75 ‘ allocated $ 1 50,000 for ‘humanitarian assistance to National Liberation Movements in Africa’; [More…]
Let me give some examples which spring readily to mind: The Outward Bound Movement, the Boy Scouts Association, the Returned Services League, the Association of Manufacturers of Canvas Goods, the Girl Guides, Gay Liberation and the Aboriginal Advancement League. [More…]
9 titled Australia’s External Aid 1974-75 allocated $150,000 for humanitarian assistance to National Liberation Movements in Africa: [More…]
I preface it by referring the Minister to the statement he made during the sitting of Estimates Committee B on aid to African liberation movements. [More…]
While we sympathise with the aims of the National Liberation Movement in southern Africa we ourselves stop short of endorsing the use of force to obtain its and indeed any other objectives. [More…]
The first thing is that we will allocate our aid through multi-lateral channels to projects that are jointly administered by United Nations agencies, liberation movements and host governments and which are sponsored by the Organisation for African Unity. [More…]
We will consult of course other countries such as West Germany, the Scandinavian countries and New Zealand, which are also giving aid to African liberation movements. [More…]
One area in which it seems that the agency may have some responsibility came up for discussion in the deliberations of Senate Estimates Committee B, and it was raised again during question time this afternoon. [More…]
It relates to the line in the estimates which refers to the allocation of $150,000 for the liberation movement in Africa. [More…]
However, I have some doubts and questioning in my mind when sums of money are provided under the terms of international aid and which can be used for what are called national liberation movements which could have a strong relationship with organisations of a terrorist or guerrilla nature. [More…]
It could well be that national liberation movements of varying kinds arise in our part of the world. [More…]
Will the new agency when it is established recommend to the Minister of the day that aid be given to liberation movements in this, that or another country? [More…]
Will the Minister invite the agency to undertake research or inquiry into various countries where he feels that there might be some national liberation movement which is in sympathy with the government’s various political philosophies and then decide to give it some aid for what might be called humanitarian purposes but without too much difficulty can be related, one way or another, to purposes with which the Australian community may have some serious disagreement? [More…]
I wish also to make a comment on this question of aid to national liberation movements. [More…]
It is all very well to express sympathy for the aims of some of these liberation movements. [More…]
We have seen what I believe is the disgraceful conduct of abstaining on the question of whether the Palestine Liberation Organisation should be represented at the United Nations. [More…]
One that concerns me is Australia’s decision to support the right of the Palestine Liberation Organisation to speak at the [More…]
It reflects this double standard when we are willing to accept under any circumstances the Palestine Liberation Organisation with all that it stands for in terms of terrorism, torture and murder and its avowed aims which are the destruction of the State of Israel and the genocide of the people. [More…]
The Palestine Liberation Organisation says that it will talk to anyone provided he accepts as a basic tenet that Israel must give in and give way. [More…]
But this decision to support any recognition of the Palestine Liberation Organisation is a disgrace. [More…]
I rise in this debate only because I think we all respect in many ways the feelings of Senator Baume and other honourable senators who have raised this issue of the recognition of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
This Government either did not have the courage of its convictions or it was completely misled in regard to the voting at the United Nations on the Palestine Liberation Organisation where Australia abstained from casting its vote. [More…]
9 titled ‘Australia’s External Aid 1974-75 ‘allocated $150,000 for ‘humanitarian assistance to National Liberation Movements in Africa’; [More…]
My question, which is directed to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, refers to the growing threats to the future survival of the State of Israel arising, amongst other ways, from inflammatory statements by the Palestine Liberation Organisation and other Arab sources that Israel must be destroyed, and also to the increasing financial and military capacity of Middle East areas to mount substantially larger military campaigns. [More…]
The Palestine Liberation Organisation has been recognised by the Arab countries as the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people. [More…]
Does the Australian Government condemn the stated policy of the Palestine Liberation Organisation to eliminate Israel as a sovereign independent State? [More…]
-The Palestine Liberation Organisation is not a state. [More…]
It is not a case of recognising the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
Does the Minister for Foreign Affairs believe that the Australian Government could, with any useful effect, call on the Palestine Liberation Organisation to renounce violence and terrorism so that a basis for peaceful negotiation with Israel could be established? [More…]
There is no doubt that the Palestine Liberation Organisation and everybody else know where we stand on the question of violence. [More…]
I refer to his answer today in which he stated that he would welcome from the Palestine Liberation Organisation a statement that it is prepared to co-exist with Israel. [More…]
There is no doubt that the Palestine Liberation Organisation knows where we stand on it, as I think does every decent nation in the world. [More…]
Did the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation vote recently to exclude Israel from certain activities of that Organisation and at the same time to include the Palestine Liberation Organisation? [More…]
The leaders of Rhodesia’s four nationalist organisations- Zanu, Zapu, Frolizi and the African National Council; the only one not mentioned is the Front for the Liberation of Zimbabwehave signed an accord which unites them under the African National Council. [More…]
The itinerary of the mission was determined before any decision was made in relation to visas to enter Australia for members of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
Did it come to his notice by Press photograph following the appearance of Arafat, the representative of the Palestine Liberation Organisation, at the General Assembly of the United Nations in New York, that at the time Arafat addressed the Assembly he was wearing a holster for a gun and that in the course of his speech he stated- apparently metaphorically- that he was bearing a gun. [More…]

Has the Leader of the Government in the Senate seen the report in the Australian’ newspaper of today’s date that the Prime Minister has indicated to the Palestine Liberation Organisation that its representatives should be able to visit Australia soon? [More…]
Since the terrorists are from countries which already have diplomatic missions in Australia will the Minister urge on the Prime Minister the view that these missions are better able to publicise the views which might be expressed by the Palestine Liberation Organisation and that this group, which has been internationally condemned, has no place in this country? [More…]
-I understand the Prime Minister has indicated that the Government would be prepared to look at a fresh application by the Palestine Liberation Organisation in respect of a visit by such a delegation to Australia. [More…]
Max Wechsler also relates that there are contracts between the Socialist Workers League and various revolutionary and terrorist groups throughout the world, and that the Palestine Liberation Organisation and the Japanese Red Army have had personal contact with members or supporters of the Socialist Workers League. [More…]
It refers to the disclosure yesterday that the Government is considering making available visas for a visit by members of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
I gave an answer to a question concerning a renewed application by the Palestine Liberation Organisation to send a delegation to Australia and the Prime Minister himself has made a definitive statement about the matter. [More…]
Mr Weschler believed that the Government was not concerned- as from the action it took with response to the Palestine Liberation Organisation and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and the demonstration against the Shah or Iran, he saw that the Government was concerned about those matters. [More…]
Contacts have been made in Australia with terrorists from terrorist groups- with representatives of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. [More…]
how regularly the Arab members of the Palestine Liberation groups called up the SWL? [More…]
3)1 wish to refer to the estimates for the Department of Foreign Affairs and particularly to the question of any proposed visit by members of the Palestine Liberation Organisation to this country. [More…]

Further, in answer to a question by Mr Berinson, he offered some justification of the stand taken by the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]

This group is part of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
The third report indicates that the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine- General Command- has claimed responsibility. [More…]
This group is also part of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
The Palestine Liberation Organisation today has launched an attack upon the civilian population of a city in Israel. [More…]
lt is worth looking at some of the recent history of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
In 1 968 the 14 groups making up the Palestine Liberation Organisation met and issued a covenant, a document of common principle. [More…]
The Palestinian Arab people, in expressing itself through the armed Palestine revolution, rejects every solution that is a substitute for complete liberation of Palestine, and rejects all plans that aim at the settlement of the Palestine issue or its internationalisation. [More…]
The Palestine Liberation Organisation has as part of its covenant’ armed struggle and the destruction of the State of Israel. [More…]
The Palestine Liberation Organisation is, on past history, a terror group. [More…]
The PLO is not a legitimate national liberation organisation. [More…]
We are criticised when we say we make contact with the other side, but when there is a fighting situation such as there is in so many countries of the world today- not the old wars that we grew up with, where half the world was on one side and almost half on the other- where we have wars of liberation, and where we see guerrilla movements, it is quite impossible to be blaming one side and not talking to the other, isolating it, and driving it into a corner. [More…]
What honourable senators do not seem to appreciate is that the very forces, the very people, the very leadership they now condemn were our allies in World War II, and that the Vietminh, which constituted the liberation armies of Vietnam, were the people who collaborated with the South-East Asian command. [More…]
If Senator Sim is prepared to open his mind and his eyes and become intelligent he will find that former President Eisenhower in his memoirs said that if there had been an election at the time when the Geneva Agreement was signed the forces of Ho Chi Minh who was a communist and a popular liberation leader, would have won 80 per cent of the popular support. [More…]
The history of Vietnam has been told so many times: That Vietnam was once an independent country, a country very proud of its independence; that in the 1840s it became a French colony; that the resistance to the French colonialists did not cease through all the time it was a colony; and that when the Vichy French collapsed and did not fight, when the Japanese invaded Indo-China in 1942, our allies in resistance to the Japanese, the comrades in arms of Australian soldiers, were the Vietnamese National Liberation Front, the Vietminh under the leadership of Ho Chi Minh, who carried on the fight as our allies against the Japanese while the French colonial governors collaborated with the Japanese. [More…]
‘I am hiding from the Palestine Liberation Group’. [More…]
I was concerned, as other people have been concerned, about the activities in this country of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]

Then there is Air Vice-Marshal Ky who was once the President and who was wined and dined and hosted and toasted as a national leader of liberation when he came to Australia. [More…]
One of the first papers that was issued by the United States Administration concerning its intervention in Vietnam referred to the weapons that had been captured from the forces fighting for the so-called Vietcong, the National Liberation Front, and only 2V4 per cent of those weapons were manufactured in a country with a communist government, such as the Soviet Union, China or Czechoslovakia. [More…]
The remainder of the arms either were primitive, home-made weapons, weapons which had been captured from the corrupt junta in Saigon, or weapons which had been handed over by the hundreds and thousands of troops in the Saigon army who refused to go on fighting for their corrupt bosses but who went over to the side of the people, the side of the National Liberation Front. [More…]
He is also a representative of the Palestine Liberation Organisation in Cairo. [More…]
Will he say why Wilfrid Burchett has been allowed into Australia, why supporters of the terrorist organisation, the Palestine Liberation Organisation, have been admitted into Australia, why countless other supporters of revolutionary movements and insurgencies throughout the world have been admitted into Australia, yet Mr O’Donnell, an Australian citizen, is denied the opportunity of visiting friends and relatives in his own country? [More…]
The Government has no indication whether the Palestine Liberation Organisation or other organisations will request visas for further visits to Australia. [More…]

I ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs: Why did the Government delegates at the International Labour Organisation Conference and the World Meteorological Conference vote in favour of the Palestine Liberation Organisation, a notorious terrorist organisation, being allowed to participate in those conferences? [More…]
Ever since, firstly, the decision of the United Nations last year to admit spokesmen for the Palestine Liberation Organisation to the United Nations and, secondly, the recognition that that organisation is regarded by most of the Arab countries as their representative, the PLO has been admitted to various organisations. [More…]
Did Mr Gamal El-Surani, a senior Palestine Liberation Organisation official, who is at present visiting Australia, state in a press conference on Sunday, 8 June 1975, that he felt sure the Australian Government would give approval for the Palestine Liberation Organisation to open a diplomatic office in Australia soon. [More…]
Is there any basis of fact in Mr El-Surani ‘s claim that the terrorist organisation, the Palestine Liberation Organisation, will be able to open an office in Australia. [More…]
Does the Australian Government recognise the Palestine Liberation Organisation as the representative ofthe disparate groups of refugees in the Middle East. [More…]
1 ) Mr Gamal El-Surani is reported by the Australian Press to have stated on several occasions during his recent visit to Australia that he felt confident that the Palestine Liberation Organisation would be allowed to open an office in Australia soon. [More…]

Can the Minister give assurances to the Senate that the Australian delegation to that intergovernmental oceanographic conference will vote against any motion to expel Israel and against any motion to admit the Palestine Liberation Organisation to the conference? [More…]

[More…]
I hope that the Australian people will realise in future how important it is for us to have good diplomatic relations with these people as human beings on the march forward to a great future after the liberation of their nation from the domination and surveillance that it has suffered over the centuries.

In view of the fact that the Women’s Liberation Movement believes that women and men should be equal and that the Government has appointed a women’s adviser at a salary of $24,000 a year, following the silly nonsense of the previous Government, will the Government consider appointing a special men’s adviser to the Government on such problems as abandoned husbands in order to spend more of this country’s money and to bring about equality of the sexes, as desired by the Women’s Liberation Movement? [More…]
This Bill will, in an economic sense, work towards the liberation of women in a way which has not been tried in Australia previously. [More…]
How can the Federal Government expect to maintain credibility with women as mothers when it not only refuses to recognise their rightful occupation, but actively promotes discriminatory propaganda against them such as that currently displayed by Commonwealth Employment Service on a poster entitled ‘Mother’s Liberation urging mothers to leave their children (with whom whilst they enjoy the ‘liberation ‘ of going out to work ( at what?

Because of the encouragement of the Soviet Union and the intervention of Cuban troops, the present regime- the Angolan Popular Liberation Movement- has been established. [More…]
Those who like to support the Palestine Liberation Organisation no doubt will sneer at the honourable senator who asked the question. [More…]
There is no need to explain such two-faced explanation of the Helsinki Declaration, whose humanitarian Articles are directed towards liberation of emigration policy, which is supported and confirmed by the members of the Helsinki Conference, to act in conjunction with the aims and principles of the Declaration of Human Rights and the pact of civil and political rights in which there is a definite confirmation of every man to leave any country including his own. [More…]
There was no reason why he should not be allowed to visit America and improve his skills with the General Dynamics Corporation, but he would not give an assurance to the Labor Government that he would not get involved with the HOP- the Croatian Liberation Movement- and other groups in West Germany and other countries.

One could not fail to be impressed with the progress that was being made even 3 short years after the People’s Liberation Army had succeeded in taking over Peking and the whole of China. [More…]

In view of the imminent admission to Australia as conference observers of members of the Palestine National Council with which the Palestine Liberation Organisation is affiliated, I ask the following questions: Will the Minister confirm that admission of the Palestine Liberation Organisation members as observers in Australia does not constitute recognition either now or in the future of the Palestine Liberation Organisation? [More…]
The admission of the Palestinian National Council representatives in no way involves any recognition of the Palestinian Liberation Organisation. [More…]

I refer to the reported decision of the Federal Government to issue visas to a 3- member delegation from the Palestine Liberation Organisation to attend the InterParliamentary Union conference in Canberra in April 1977, and ask: Is this not a conference of representatives of the parliaments of recognised states? [More…]
It has been claimed recently by a number of people that the recent conference of the Palestine National Council, the governing body of the Palestine Liberation Organisation, has been a victory for the moderates. [More…]
The decision it took- apparently it is alleged to be a compromise between the moderates and extremists, whoever they are; it is sometimes difficult to disentangle them- is to the effect that the Palestine Liberation Organisation would be prepared to accept an independent Palestinian state on the west bank of the Jordan as a transitory step towards the complete demolition of the state of Israel and the establishment of one Palestinian state. [More…]
What they have shown by this decision is that, despite the hopes which had been expressed by some people that there was a movement in the Palestine Liberation Organisation towards the acceptance of Israel on reduced borders as a sovereign state, it has now apparently been re-affirmed by all of them that they are still just as determined to destroy Israel as they ever were and that the only purpose that the so-called independent Palestinian state on the [More…]

If liberation is to be the result of infiltration, if liberation is going to be the result of the promotion of a particular super power in an under-developed area, that in itself has within it the essence of a new and perhaps more dangerous imperialism. [More…]
the promotion of a particular developing nation or particular ideology, on the grounds of liberation, through third and fourth parties. [More…]
While we are talking about even-handedness in the Middle East, I want to reiterate the point about the Palestine Liberation Organisation that was made by Senator Wheeldon here this afternoon. [More…]
But this cannot happen while the Palestine Liberation Organisation rejects Israel’s right to exist. [More…]
After all the Palestine Liberation Organisation has armed forces. [More…]
Like other honourable senators I was attracted to the committee set up in the United Kingdom following the Angolan exercise when, I think, 160 citizens of the United Kingdom enrolled as mercenaries following advertisements in Great Britain and took up the cause, I believe, of the FNLA- the National Front for the Liberation of Angola against the MPLA- the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola in the Angolan conflict. [More…]
Having done that, do we then consequently wish to allow involvement in certain Arab or Palestine Liberation Organisation army groups? [More…]
Over the last couple of years there have been unfortunate events in Norway where it is alleged that members of the Israeli secret service killed members of the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
How do we deal with wars of national liberation? [More…]
In the worldwide context it is accepted these days by the communist parties and some fraternal socialist parties of the Communist Government in Russia, and in the so-called democratic countries in Africa, that any declaration that a particular war or activity of violence is ipso facto a war of national liberation and it becomes a war de jure.

Saudi Arabian Mail: Palestine Liberation Organisation Super-frank (Question No. [More…]
The most recent mail despatch from Saudi Arabia, received on 22 April 1977, did not contain any articles bearing indications of a Palestine Liberation Organisation ‘superfrank’. [More…]
But the case which is presented by every one of the Arab countries without exception- not one of them has ever said anything to contradict this- and the case which is presented by the Palestine Liberation Organisation, which apparently is now accepted as the spokesman for the Palestinians, and most recently by the Palestine National Council, the socalled parliament of the Palestine Liberation Organisation, which I regret to say is recognised as a parliament by the Inter-Parliamentary Union, is that the state of Israel has to be destroyed.

It was meant to be a psychological warfare project against the liberation movement in Thailand. [More…]
The continuing fight for liberation by the people of West Irian to a large extent has gone unnoticed due, I believe, to a couple of factors: Firstly, the attempted Indonesian blackout of the area; and secondly, because of our ignorance of the aspirations of our neighbours whom we still see to some extent as fuzzy wuzzys or primitive tribesmen. [More…]
Yet changed circumstances have arisen which provide a new context for movements of liberation and which made actions like that of the East Timorese possible. [More…]
Perhaps the white man is in greater need of liberation, in greater need to be freed from fear and liberated from the threat which race and colour discrimination is to our future safety. [More…]

As emerges from the Committee’s inquiries, to a very large extent the conflict which took place within the Lebanon was a conflict between members of the Palestine Liberation Organisation and other people- indigenous people- living within the Lebanon. [More…]
Liberation Organisation representing a number of Palestinian political organisations of some differing persuasions. [More…]
The Palestine Liberation Organisation itself and every affiliated organisation within the Palestine Liberation Organisation- whether it is the El Fatah or Mr Yasser Arafat or the much more extreme organisation, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine- however they may differ on the methods they would apply to the elimination of the state of Isreal all of them are united in their belief that the State of Israel has no right to exist. [More…]
Nonetheless the fact remains that for as long as the Palestine Liberation Organisation and the Arab countries continue to say that they will not recognise the existence of that state and that it is their objective to destroy it, I do not believe that one can object in any way to the Israelis continuing to occupy the West Bank and refusing to negotiate with the Palestine Liberation Organisation. [More…]
As yet, there is nothing clear and unequivocal to this effect in any statement which has been issued by the Palestine Liberation Organisation or the other neighbouring Arab countries. [More…]
In conclusion, I suggest that it should be the goal of those people who are friends of Israel, people who wish well and who do not wish ill to the Arab population of the Middle East, people who are trying to avoid bloodshed and to achieve peace in the area, to do two things: We should be urging on the Arab countries, and by whatever influence we can have on those countries which in turn influence the Palestine Liberation Organisation, that there can be no peaceful settlement without their recognising the sovereignty of the state of Israel and its continued existence within secure boundaries.

For a mixture of reasons, including, I think it is fair to say, the genuine humanitarian convictions of people such as Mr Young, the present United States Ambassador to the United Nations and probably Mr Carter and Mr Mondale, the United States feels sympathy for the various national liberation movements in Africa- a sympathy which I do not doubt is accentuated by the fact that those people know that there is a 20 per cent non-white electorate inside the United States of America which would also have some views on this subject. [More…]
Such organisations include the Irish Republican Army, the Palestinian Liberation Organisation, the BaderMeinhof gang and the Ustasha. [More…]
In view of the incident for which the Palestine Liberation Organisation has claimed credit and about which it actually received the right to speak over the Australian Broadcasting Commission’s national network last night, I ask the Minister representing the Minister for Foreign Affairs whether he will consider the appropriateness of making representations to the appropriate organ of the United Nations to expel or cancel the recognition of the Palestine Liberation Organisation as an observer to that body while ever these tactics of terrorism are boasted to be the achievement of the PLO? [More…]

I draw the attention of the Minister to an article in the Melbourne Age which stated that Australia had abstained from a United Nations Human Rights Commission vote which declared that Israel was guilty of war crimes and supported Palestine Liberation Organisation military action to gain its objectives, while the United States, Canada and Britain voted against the resolution. [More…]
The bombing could have been perpetrated by an organised urban terrorist group such as the Baadar-Meinhof gang, the Palestine Liberation Organisation, the Red Brigade, the Japanese Red Army or any of those other extreme groups. [More…]
There has been a highjacking of a plane and I think only last week there was a bombing attack on the United Nations for which a group calling itself ‘Croatian Liberation’ or some similar name in fact took and claimed responsibility. [More…]
They were headed ‘Mothers’ Liberation ‘ and urged mothers to leave the home and become part of the paid work force. [More…]

Were any Australian aid projects in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam damaged or destroyed by the invading, occupying or withdrawing armed forces of the Chinese People ‘s Liberation Army? [More…]
It is very interesting indeed to notice that one of the other front runners in the stakes of national liberation, the People’s Republic of China, has so far been studiously silent on this issue; studiously silent. [More…]
Our major task in dealing with these issues is to try to avoid these absurdly simple categories to which people have subscribed down through the years; that is, that people are either in favour of the West, which means that they support Smith or Vorster, or they are in favour of liberation, which means they support any liberation movement or any movement that has the word liberation’ in its title, whether it be the Palestine Liberation Organisation or the Irish National Liberation Army. [More…]
As I understand it, under resolution 33/41 of the General Assembly passed on 13 December 1978, all specialised agencies of the United Nations-that is, including the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund- were called on to increase their assistance to national liberation movements recognised by the Organisation of African Unity. [More…]
In the last report by UNICEF to the Economic and Social Council, reference is made to assistance to children and mothers cared for by liberation movements. [More…]
This assistance was extended to refugee mothers and children under the auspices of the liberation movements in Angola, Botswana, Mozambique, Swaziland, Tanzania and Zambia. [More…]
In the case of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation, for example, the contribution in 1979-80 to educational, training and cultural assistance to national liberation movements will be only 0.69 per cent of UNESCO’s total budget. [More…]
I said on 1 1 September, in answer to another question, that a tiny proportion of the Budget provision of some United Nations agencies which receive Australian Government contributions is used to provide relief to South African refugee mothers and children who are cared for by liberation movements. [More…]
I think he asked a question about alleged assistance from the United Nations Children’s Fund to liberation movements in southern Africa. [More…]
That is an extraordinarily uninformative statement and does not amount at all to any justification for the highly unfortunate, unwarranted and, I would believe, unconscionable decision of the Australian Government, after very large sums of money had been spent on initial preparation for that conference, to abandon it simply because of the prospect of a visit from a Palestine Liberation Organisation delegation. [More…]
I refer him to a recent statement by Mr Farouk Khaddoumi, head of the Palestine Liberation Organisation’s political department, that the Arab oil producing states would use the oil weapon to influence next year’s presidential elections in the United States. [More…]
Can the Government assure the Australian people that it would not allow itself in any way to be party to the kind of oil blackmail suggested by the Palestine Liberation Organisation? [More…]
I think it is worth noting, as it is clear from what the Palestine Liberation Organisation leader said, that the PLO has no control over the production or marketing of oil. [More…]
I can see no relationship between the answer I gave, which related to some report that the Palestine Liberation Organisation would use oil as a weapon, and whether or not good neighbour countries- OPEC countries- have made some attempt at reciprocal arrangements. [More…]
