Doing Washington’s Bidding: Australia’s Treatment of Daniel Duggan – » The Australian Independent Media Network

It doesn’t matter which country you’re in if America deems you’ve broken their law they can extradite you from anywhere or even as they once did have you rendered. They have done it to Australians already. Kidnapped and sent to locations like Egypt and then on to Guantanamo. Habib and Hicks are just two we know of. The fact you have an Australian passport means sweet FA, Assange and Duggan are current examples.

The increasingly shabby treatment of former US marine Daniel Edmund Duggan by Australian authorities in the service of their US masters has again shown that the Australian passport is not quite worth the material it’s printed on.

In January this year, Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court heard that Australian Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus accepted a request from the US before Christmas to extradite Duggan. Duggan holds Australian citizenship, but Canberra has often regarded this as irrelevant when it comes to the US-Australian alliance.
