The ‘new world’ and genocides against blacks: Part Six

Published on

IN 1919 CE, Billy Hughes who came from the party that once called for an outright ban on all non-whites from Australia became the Prime Minister.
During the First World War, Australia sent 300 000 troops to fight on the side of the Allied powers (Britain, USA, France and Italy).
60 000 of them died in battle and Hughes lobbied their deaths as proof of Australia’s devotion to the preservation of the British Empire and Australia’s all white policy.
At the Paris Peace Conference of January – June 1919 CE which was attended by 72 delegates from 32 nations and led to the formation of the League of Nations, Billy Hughes tried to sell the Australian all-white policy and also proposed the mass migration of the British to Australia.
General Makino Nabuwaki who led the Japanese delegation had been sent by his nation to protest the racist Australian immigration laws.
The Japanese delegates argued strongly for racial equality to be a crucial part of the agreement that would be made.
In this respect, many non-white countries agreed with Japan.
However, to their disappointment, this meeting that was initially thought to be crucial in ensuring peace for generations to come proved only to favour the white nations which had fought on the side of the Allies during the war.
Japan’s proposal for racial equality was mocked at by Billy Hughes who threatened to leave along with the Australian delegation if the nations in attendance were to accept it.
The British Prime Minister, Lord George and the American President, Woodrow Wilson aligned themselves with Hughes, but pretended to be sympathetic with the Japanese argument.
In the end, the Japanese proposal for racial equality was shot down and the Australian proposal for the organised mass migration of British nationals to Australia was passed.
This awoke the Japanese to the barbarism and injustice of the Western nations. They left a very bitter people.
It was Japan’s anger and frustration which persuaded it to strengthen its military and to embark on military conquests in the Pacific to register its dominance in the world.
The Japanese had thought that the whole point of forming a ‘League of Nations’ was to create a more just and fairer international order for all nations.
The plea for racial equality in this respect had been viewed by the Japanese as a basic requirement and necessary principle.
It is therefore safe to say that it was Australia, USA and Britain that gave Japan a motive to fight and consequently enter the Second World War.
It is also important to note that China too was in attendance.
At the conference, the Chinese tried to reclaim Taiwan from Germany which had lost to the Allies in the war.
The Western nations refused to give Taiwan back to China, but instead, forced China to sign Taiwan over to Japan.
The Chinese refused, but it was the bullying of China by the West and the endorsement of the taking over of Taiwan by Japan that greatly contributed in making China an enemy and target of the Japanese war machine in the Second World War.
The Paris Peace treaty was signed on June 28 1919 CE and Hughes returned to Australia bragging that he returned with the all-white policy more firm than before.
In 1921 CE, the mass migration of the British to Australia began.
The British took care of all the expenses and Australia was marketed in the same way the Americas were to the Spanish conquistadors in the days of Columbus.
The British emigrants were promised free transportation and free land on arrival. Thousands of volunteers from the poor peasant families joined the migration in search of better opportunities.
In 1929, non-whites were virtually banned from entering Australia.
The once prosperous China towns shrunk and deteriorated.
Some of the non-white immigrants that tried to enter Australia were kidnapped and ransomed by the white settlers.
Only the first few British immigrants that came found fenced farms with livestock and houses as was promised, otherwise the great majority of them had to tame virgin lands that had been previously inhabited by the indigenous blacks.
They also found that the crops they were accustomed to farming were not suitable for the hot and dry climate of Australia.
The organised mass migration soon stopped after the economic depression that hit Britain.
After the Second World War, Europeans from all around Europe emigrated to Australia.
In 1938 CE, 5 000 Jewish whites from Germany entered Australia as refugees and they were given certificates of exemption from the dictation test.
The Australians planned on a massive migration programme as a measure to strengthen its defences against countries like Japan that had attacked it during the war.
Australia’s policy was ‘populate or perish’.
Hundreds of thousands of displaced war victims from Europe migrated to Australia and neighboring New Zealand.
Over a million British whites entered the country under what was known as the ‘assisted migration scheme’.
Even whites from outside the Commonwealth were accepted into Australia after the war and these included the Jews, Dutch and Italians.
The only requirement for the European migrants was that they were under 45 years of age and in good health.
Today, Australia and New Zealand claim to be white nations, but this is only so because they deliberately wiped out the population of the indigenous blacks and forcibly made themselves a majority by importing whites from Europe on numerous occasions.
This is also the case with the USA which claims to be a white nation when they embarked on similar programmes as the Australian whites to become a white majority.
Whites reduced the indigenous populations of the Americas, Australia and New Zealand to a minority in order for them to be the majority.
In Tasmania, the British wiped out each and every black Tasmanian and today there is not one of them in existence.
These and more are the gruesome acts that the Europeans undertook to establish the current world order that continues to favour them at the expense of the indigenous people of the lands that they stole.
