here's australian spies wiretapping the government of timor leste to defraud them out of gas resources in the timor sea.
means they have their eyes off anything even vaguely related to national security. they're doing industrial esionage. #4Corners
the timorese government finds out about it. moves to invalidate the treaty. and then the bipartisan lying begins to protect "national security" #4Corners
this isn't national security. this is institutional organised crime. #4Corners
how often we see this pattern. the criminals hold high office. the truth-tellers get prosecuted. #4Corners
prosecuted in closed courts to help shroud that vast abuse of the term "national security" #4Corners
and now xanana with the mic-drop #4Corners
that was a sharp example of how #4Corners can go to work on something big: can we put in a request for episode 2 tracking alexander downer's role from cabinet to woodside. would watch.
