But this doesn't mean the state itself has been subjugated; it's actually a protector of rampant capitalism at the expense of social equity and democratic freedoms. Increasingly we're seeing valid dissent suppressed as the leaders of the free world call for "total war" against terror and pass the most draconian legislation in histo- ry. In depicting the plight of Iraqis, who have suffered a decade of sanctions and a few million deaths since the Gulf War, and of Afghanis, several thousand innocents killed from October to December 2001, Pilger makes us ask why we should tolerate a UN Security Council whose five perma- nent members have the power of veto. In the final chapter, Pilger returns to his Australian roots to focus on the ongoing struggle of the Aboriginal people as well as "illegal" asylum seekers in the face of "one of the most intransigent and meanest politi- cal establishments"—the Liberal govern- ment of John Howard. Here, as everywhere, freedom-loving people must make a stand if we really value human rights. Pilger's book is a wake-up call to us all. 70 = NEXUS www.nexusmagazine.com AUGUST - SEPTEMBER 2002
