Somebody named FOSP added this to my Houston Indymedia version of the Parkin story.

Yep, if people start getting organised in their protests, the Bush Regime in both countries might indeed have something to fear.

I've just received this from Friends Of Scott Parkin:

Dear Friends-- Very exciting news!  Yesterday, Justice Ross Sundberg granted my lawyers access to the contents of the Australian Security Intelligence Organization's security assessment  which resulted in me being removed from Melbourne in September last year.  Furthermore, it grants access to the security assessments of my 2 co-plaintiffs, Iraqi asylum seekers Mohammad Sagar and Muhammad Faisal, who have been in an Australian detention centre for the past 5 years.

This is a fantastic 1st step towards me clearing my name and winning the freedom for my co-plaintiffs, but we still have a long way to go as the legal battle is only beginning.

We need funds to keep the legal challenge and political campaign going.

Please donate to support the campaign by visiting http://scottparkin.org/give.htm.

Also this is a very small list and forwarding this message to your ends and communities would be a great help.

his has been a long process, but I want to thank everyone for all their support over the past year.  It has meant so much to my and my family.

Peace,

Scott Parkin
