Governments use "increase in terrorism" to fund more militarized police, more oppressive legislation, but make sure their terrorism increases by redefining terrorism to include "holding a sign" and "telling the truth" ... like "sayinig genocide is bad"

It wasn't just Bibi who was warned (by other West Asian Leaders) about Oct 7 but did nothing. IDF now honoring NCO who warned senior intelligence officials that also did nothing. There's a pattern here. Cui bono. And the pattern stinks of rat.

Those berating Shoebridge for wanting a rethink of the US "alliance" don't want people to know that qualified people generally considered on the right, PM Malcolm Fraser and highly respected strategist Hugh White, called or are called for exactly that.

Why would America want it's vassal on the Security Council? I'm guessing for much the same reason Sir Humphrey wanted the UK in the EU - "Now that we're on the inside, we can make a complete pig's breakfast of the whole thing". We obviously hate international law, how better to screw it?

When an Israeli jewish newspaper reports Israeli legal scholars from multiple Israeli institutions wanting probes into suspected Gaza war crimes by the IDF - I'm sure that Segal and her lackeys in Australian parliaments will call re-posters antisemitic. www.haaretz.com/gaza/2026-09...

Remind me, when you aren't allowed to mention the word "sex" in sex education policy papers, have we got a Labor party government, or a pack of reactionary ultraconservative fossil-fuel-loving warmongering prudes led by the Mad Monk Tony Abbott? www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/educati...

If Sir David can't run around after wild animals for the cameras any more - you just sit him in a chair and the wild animals will, of course, come to him. "Wild London" (2026) is on ABC iview. iview.abc.net.au/video/ZW5162...

michaelwest.com.au/appeal-aband... Now it's time to remove the perverse, not just illogical, abomination of the English language that is the IHRA definition from all agencies of Australian governments, anything that affects Australians. Then flush out from office all those who promoted it.

The ALP will use the WA by-election loss to lurch more to the right, create more disappointment, more movement of the electorate to the right ... and more excuse for the ALP to follow more, rather than be a force for the good. They know this. independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...
