text US Forced to Abandon Program to Train and Support 'Moderate' Terrorists in Syria Deirdre Fulton via gail, Saturday, Oct 10 2015, 7:56am
For all the tax-payer money that was spent the return has been abysmal as was the original idea to utilise al-Qaeda affilitates as a proxy fighting force in Syria to oust Assad. The end result of this gross incompetence is that it forced a dormant superpower to LEGALLY intervene to quell the violence and chaos -- well done American DUNCES. Is there no end to American stupidity and the wanton violence, destruction and chaos it causes?

Elitist PM Malcolm Turnbull, "leave," if you dislike Australian values image Insidious American Propaganda and the Demonization of the Australian Muslim Community darcy, Saturday, Oct 10 2015, 12:30am
A recent ‘terror’ event in Parramatta Sydney perpetrated by an alienated, impressionable and clearly disturbed 15yo Muslim youth, which resulted in the death of a police accountant and the ‘suicide by the other,’ death of the perpetrator has sparked various forms of mindless community outrage and appalling announcements by the current unelected PM Malcolm Turnbull, who immediately announced to the press that if some people dislike Australian values they should ‘get out, leave the country,’ piss off in other words, which amounts to a monumental cop out and flags the INABILITY of the new PM to effectively deal with OUR social problems, which, as will be explained, have been created by US propagandists to serve their own interests of global hegemony and plunder.

It has recently been revealed that Mr‭ “‬transparent‭” ‬government,‭ ‬Oz PM,‭ ‬Malcolm Turnbull,‭ ‬is using a private email server,‭ ‬a la Hillary Clinton,‭ ‬to communicate with colleagues,‭ ‬journos and‭ ‘‬others,‭’ ‬who knows their identities and the content of those emails,‭ ‬hackers of course‭? ‬But security is not the issue here it is the usual lying and searing hypocrisy of conservative politicians.

text The Pope is a Socialist jude, Thursday, Oct 8 2015, 9:49am
The truth is I cannot say one way or the other, however, what is clear is that if the Pope followed the teachings of Christ he would be, as the overriding theme in the Gospels is Jesus’ detestation of wealth and privileged ruling elites that exploit the masses; indeed, Jesus was a man of the underclass, the oppressed and abused. However, to distract from the dominant social reform message of the New Testament Christian religious institutions focus on the miracles and absurdities, walking on 'water' (unruly emotions), curing the 'blind,' raising the 'dead' and other 'miraculous' misinterpretations, fodder for the mentally bereft, while elite religious leaders of today enrich themselves exactly like the priest class that Jesus detested and constantly railed against.

text Australian Democracy and the TPP claire, Thursday, Oct 8 2015, 2:00am
By definition democracy is MAJORITY rule either directly or by political representation, as is most often the case. Representation occurs by political hopeful’s spruiking their support/policies in favour of the public/MAJORITY interest, as it is the majority that votes representatives into power, granting support or a mandate from the majority to rule in their interests – the entire procedure is open and transparent, an absolutely critical factor in democratic systems of government.

Deputy Police Commissioner Burn image Preventative Crime and Inept Policing in Australia shane, Tuesday, Oct 6 2015, 10:47pm
Murdoch rags are in full sensationalist swing over the tragic death of an accountant working for the NSW police. The Daily Sensationalist (Telegraph) is portraying the perpetrator, an obviously disturbed impressionable, deluded, underage youth, as a “terror gunman” but clearly the perpetrator was far from a man responsible for his own actions, but why let a rational perspective get in the way of sensationalist news and reporting when the bottom line is PROFIT, isn’t that right Mr Murdoch, who incidentally should be arrested for incitement to cause community unrest and perhaps violent retaliatory action from the morons that read his rags.

puppetstrings.jpg image Obama: who is this traitorous puppet trying to kid? jess, Tuesday, Oct 6 2015, 8:15am
Almost immediately after Obama delivered his jaw-dropping HYPOCRITICAL address at the UN General Assembly, Obama delivered yet another one of his divorced from reality, classic hypocritical diatribes this time addressing the nation and the latest mass shooting of innocents. Feigning concern -- he has none – as he himself admitted that ‘killing’ was his ‘strong suite,’ he took aim at the Constitution and the right to bear arms, which the founding fathers wisely included in the Constitution as they were aware of the forces from WITHIN that could threaten the liberties and freedoms of their new nation.

Unelected PM Malcolm Turnbull cosy with Washington representative FM Julie Bishop image Julie Bishop A Trained Washington Parrot jaxie, Monday, Oct 5 2015, 12:05am
Oz FM Julie Bishop, did herself and SOVEREIGN Australia a huge disservice on the ABC Insiders program on Sunday. She virtually spouted verbatim Lewis Carroll’s Washington rhetoric, that Russia’s LEGAL intervention in Syria, which has been spectacularly successful to date, has “complicated” matters, she stressed ‘complicated’ a number of times during the interview but useless/GUTLESS journo/interviewer, Barrie Cassidy, did NOT press her for an explanation, as there is nothing complicated about a SUCCESSFUL direct attack on bloodthirsty terrorists, in fact, Russia has done more to weaken ISIS and other terrorist groups in a few days than the US has done in years of mindless civilian killing bombing!

text Russia Uses High Tech Smart Bombs to Wipe Out US Sponsored Al Qaeda Terrorists. Panic in Rebel Ranks Stephen Lendman via stan, Sunday, Oct 4 2015, 8:03pm
The entire free world wants terrorism defeated. Russia leads the effort to confront it head-on,

On October 3, Tass said Russian aircraft conducted over 60 sorties so far, bombing 50 ISIS targets, causing consternation in its ranks. National Defence Control Centre Col. General Andrey Kartapolov said “aircraft have been taking off from the Hmeimim air base (night and day), targeting the whole of Syria.”

text The Trans-Pacific Free-Trade Charade Joseph Stiglitz, Adam Hersh via dulcie, Sunday, Oct 4 2015, 10:51am
As negotiators and ministers from the United States and 11 other Pacific Rim countries meet in Atlanta in an effort to finalize the details of the sweeping new Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), some sober analysis is warranted. The biggest regional trade and investment agreement in history is not what it seems.

americangun.jpg image President Obama is wrong: Australia is not like the US Michael Pascoe via cyd, Friday, Oct 2 2015, 8:16am
Well, bravo Mr Pascoe, Obama is not only wrong about Australia, he is wrong on just about everything, but you should never forget he is America's well deserved president. Perhaps real Oz journalism is taking a breath of fresh honest air. I sincerely hope your article reminds all Aussies that we are a unique culture/nation that many other nations envy and that insecure, un-Australian conservative politicians should cease attempting to create a little America in the South Pacific. We are the envy of the world and we should never forget it -- are you reading this Mr ‘G Sachs’ Turnbull? If you wish to succeed you had better pay more attention to our culture of a fair go than your predecessor did -- "ISIS is coming to get every one of us;" a Yankee ploy that may get traction over there but not a hope in Oz. Abbott truly is the "suppository" of all wisdom as are his remaining Libs that continue to emulate the USA and its appalling, unfair policies and mindless violent culture. (story and 3 images)

Conservative Oz treasurer Scott Morrison, politically appointed by the new unelected PM Malcolm Turnbull, an undisguised elitist, former merchant banker and former MD of Goldman Sachs Australia, stated plainly in one of his first media interviews in his new role that “we do not have a revenue problem ...” the fact is we do have a MAJOR revenue problem, Mr Morrison and here’s why.

As a poet and writer who instinctively utilises the power of words as a painter utilises the colours on his/her palette, I am acutely aware that words, unlike colours, do NOT possess any intrinsic meaning -- meaning is invested by culture and culture is a human creation.

Notwithstanding the fact that Putin ran rings around Obama's feeble scripted speech and highlighted his tenuous grip on reality, it is worth viewing the video of his fantasy-laden, denialist and ultra-hypocritical address to the UN General Assembly, populated by world leaders and members that know better. Indeed, US disconnect and its persistent opposition to reality are now the major reasons for American decline -- who is that disgraceful Uncle Tom trying to kid? (story and 1 image)

It is known by any ranking military person that ISIL could be routed almost overnight by a real military, it hasn’t occurred to date simply due to the FACT that ISIL is a created and supported US/Israeli/vassal Gulf States proxy fighting force deployed in order to redraw maps of the Middle East and install Washington compliant puppet governments in the ‘new’ Middle East, but check by master strategist Putin!
