Rhiannon: Buts, butts and bullocks
For years Lee Rhiannon has been using the calumnous of Buts, butts and bullocks excuse in attempting to defend herself for being herself.
Her rationale for being involved with the so - called truthers is predicated on the classical 'but' based excuse.

I condemn false accusations of anti-Semitism designed to silence legitimate criticism of Israeli government abuse of Palestinian human rights.
What chutzpah: claiming enemies are trying to victimize / silence her distortions!
Yet the Senator organizes arguably illegal primary / secondary boycotts against Australian / Jewish businesses - never protesting / boycotting any entity in any Islamic country. With the ostensible blessing of the ACCC. All Israel’s enemies in the ME are totalitarian regimes of course. No problem for Rhiannon.
It is a Palestinian victimhood - the raison d'etre of the extreme left that she champions.
Under the aegis of her self - claimed multicultural views.

'Senator Rhiannon did not deny she had met Mr Bursill or other
members of Truth Action Australia although she distanced herself from the
truther movement.'
"I meet regularly with a wide range of constituents but I do not
support the ideas of Truth Action," Senator Rhiannon told The
Australian.
Then in her letter of

Her favourite moniker for inexplicable anti Israel bias is the
pathetic claim her views are all about ''fair criticism of
Israel''
No. it is not. It never was and does not pass any
reasonable test and can be seen for what it is. Unfair and
demonstrating an irrational hatred of Jews. The simple meaning of
AS.
Furthermore it this claim of insisting that her's is merely simple political debate under the aegis of ''fair criticism of Israel'' that has to be called for what it is.
I think Martin Luther King said it very well

Letter The Australian 14/9
Arthur Sinodinos's attempt to link me with anti-Semitism is another example of his use of false suggestions that have become his trademark ("Rhiannon under fire for truthers", 13/9). I reject such implications. The Greens have a track record of opposing racism and supporting multicultural issues. I condemn false accusations of anti-Semitism designed to silence legitimate criticism of Israeli government abuse of Palestinian human rights.
Lee Rhiannon, Senator for NSW
##################################################################################################################################################################Rhiannon under fire for truthers
- The Australian
- September 13, 2012
In a blistering parliamentary attack, John Howard's former chief of staff linked the NSW Greens senator to the group Truth Action Australia, which denies Islamic terrorists were responsible for the 2001 terrorist attacks in New York and Washington.
Senator Sinodinos quoted internet postings by John Bursill, a self-described aircraft engineer and member of the Illawarra Greens, in which he referred to meetings with Senator Rhiannon.
One on the 911 Truth Now forum from 2008, when Senator Rhiannon was a member of the NSW Legislative Council, read: "Today on May 11th at a Greens public forum at their Erskineville (Sydney) head office, Truth Action Australia was in attendance in strength.
"We had a very interesting time and made some real ground with the staffers and elected members present including the formidable Lee Rhiannon NSW MP who has agreed to view the DVDs given to her and she said 'she will be in touch'.
"She was fully conversant with 'false flag terrorism' and was really genuinely interested! Numerous people within our movement and the Greens have been working on this issue for two years now and maybe it is now paying off?"
Senator Sinodinos referenced a second posting from August 6 that year on the 911oz Forum from Mr Bursill stating: "We have now met 'officially' with Lee Rhiannon at the NSW parliament a few weeks back. These discussions were very successful and we are hopeful of a breakthrough."
Senator Sinodinos reminded senators of footage of former Greens leader Bob Brown addressing a 2003 rally outside Parliament House in front of a banner reading "Why? -- whatreallyhappened.com".
"This banner promotes a particularly repugnant, conspiracist, anti-Semitic website that argues that the September 11 terrorist attacks were a US-Israeli conspiracy," he said.
Senator Sinodinos also pointed to comments by the Greens candidate for the seat of Flinders at the 2010 federal election, Robert Brown, who told a local newspaper: "The 9/11 commission was not conclusive that al-Qa'ida was responsible . . . There are huge questions that need to be answered."
Senator Sinodinos said it appeared Senator Rhiannon had "flirted with, given comfort to and aided the wacky, anti-Semitic conspiracy theories of the truthers. The common thread with her previous support for the old-style Soviet Union, for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, or BDS, campaign, and for the Truthers is their extremely hostile positions on Israel."
Senator Sinodinos warned that the Greens risked being "a magnet for all sorts of loopy fringe groups on the Left who think that they are a convenient vehicle which they can reach for broader power."
Senator Rhiannon did not deny she had met Mr Bursill or other members of Truth Action Australia although she distanced herself from the truther movement.
"I meet regularly with a wide range of constituents but I do not support the ideas of Truth Action," Senator Rhiannon told The Australian.
Her colleague Peter Whish-Wilson, a former New York-based investment banker, also attacked the senator's speech. "Senator Sinodinos, as someone who's worked in the World Trade Centre . . . in that context I find your words very disturbing today, as do all my Greens colleagues."
