'Blue tie' puppets, Obama and dubya Bush image “Mission Accomplished” sam, Saturday, Jun 20 2015, 2:57am
For those citizens that remain impervious to the effects of the 24 hour ‘news’ cycle/memory wipe, it is a simple matter to recall and remember how then puppet of the corporate-banker elite, president dubya Bush, stood on the deck of a US naval vessel and touted that the Iraq mission was accomplished! However, prior to that buffoon reading from a prepared script, neocon and sociopath Paul Wolfowitz stated publicly that the invasion and takeover of Iraq would be a “cakewalk” and that the Iraqi population would welcome mass murdering American troops with “bouquets of flowers,” probably in gratitude for US embargos and sanctions which killed over 500,000 innocent Iraqi children due to the lack of essential medical supplies.

Barack Hussein Obama image Puppet Obama's Libya Fiasco Andres Cala via stacey, Friday, Jun 19 2015, 10:47am
It should be noted that everywhere the US and its NATO ally have intervened over the past decade the result has been the ruination of the interfered with nation and countless lost innocent lives. These criminal interventions, under one pretext or another, must cease as they have clearly proven disastrous for not only the intervened nation but for world stability and security. The refugee problem has exploded and various extremist groups have been spawned as a direct consequence of the vandalism and sociopathic policies of America and its NATO ally. Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan have proven that these interventions have destabilised the ENTIRE world. The principals behind these interventionist policies should be arrested and held to account for contravening international law and the obvious crime of mass murder. (story and 2 images)

Julian Assange image The Tragic case of Flawed Personality Julian Assange zed, Friday, Jun 19 2015, 5:34am
Fellow Australian John Pilger has recently written another overtly biased article in support of Julian Assange, whose situation is largely the result of his own making, notwithstanding the known behaviour of criminal lackey governments that overtly flout justice and serve the interests of the most criminal, mass murdering government of them all, Washington.

Lying Abbott image A Message to Australian Drongos re: Abbott, “The Boats” and “Border Security” baz, Friday, Jun 19 2015, 2:18am
All we hear from Abbott lately is, “the boats, the boats, the boats,” meanderings on stripping citizenship from nationals and the (miniscule) ISIL terrorism ‘threat’ to the nation. (story and 2 images)

Dunce PM and corporate errand boy, Tony Abbott image Golden Retriever Tony Abbott Runs with elite Bone – ISIL is coming to get YOU/Everyone! baz, Friday, Jun 12 2015, 11:16am
Soon after conservative treasurer Joe Hockey displayed his total disconnect with average Aussies, his elite trained boss, Tony ‘woof’ Abbott, has gone one better/worse, ISIL is coming to get everyone, “submit or die,” completed his failed, fearmongering, mad hatter proclamation. But few fell for it and even fewer are listening to that duplicitous, lying errand boy for the corporate elite. (story and 1 image)

Treasurer Joe Hockey, couldn't give a shit image Hockey blows it! louise, Tuesday, Jun 9 2015, 4:11am
The insular, elite serving Abbott conservative government is noted for its many callous, unfair policies – corporate tax avoiders continue to rip off Australia while burdened, underpaid citizens and the vulnerable suffer. So it is to be expected that ministers let revealing attitudes slip with gaffes on occasion. Living with Alice Oz Treasurer, Joe Hockey is in denial regarding real economic ‘growth’ the stock market floundering and money leaving Oz hand over fist, all indications of government managerial incompetence.

text Australia: Adopting the Corporate "Greed is Good" U.S. Ethic Binoy Kampmark via gail, Monday, Jun 8 2015, 3:41am
The recent passing of Alan Bond, a notorious billionaire and bankrupt who destroyed the life savings of thousands of Australians is remembered as a flamboyant "likeable" rogue. A man of the 80's that saw a deregulated banking opportunity and milked it for all it was wortth, and it was worth plenty to a callous conman.

text Regarding Enlightenment, Nirvana sadh, Sunday, Jun 7 2015, 10:56pm
It should clearly be stated at the outset that we are all Enlightened beings, as we are born spontaneously Aware. However, superimposed cultural learning or socialisation veils our understanding and creates a type of amnesia of the fact. We are then faced with a paradox if we decide to pursue Enlightenment, how do we achieve or gain what we already have? The problem amounts to the absurdity of attempting to locate something more immediate than the nose on your face. Nonetheless, countless people attempt to solve that impossible paradox by utilising the means – culturally learned behaviours -- which created the amnesia in the first instance, needless to say they fail miserably in the attempt?
