How about suicide in FIFO . Our son has told me of three in the past month of his acquaintance…
I am a reasonably good Catholic, Rosie, these people are better than me. I should do better in the forgiveness…
FMD indeed.
Yep. That “OK, we’re busted” look.
I have some.
We often forget that there are many many people that are incapable of reasoning.
Still, pray for them, pray for peace.”
Absolutely.

What sort of moron believes some Air Tasking gnome is ordered by Vlad the Terrible to put this preschool and that puppy orphanage on the daily frag list?
Don’t worry. Any minute now ScoMo will put his foot down and McGowan will do as he’s told.
For Ukraine War watchers, if you haven’t been already, see Maj Gen Mick Ryan’s twitter feed.
https://mobile.twitter.com/WarintheFuture
He’s a bit lefty (eg. writes for SMH) but is tracking various strategy think tanks and what not, and as a previous Commandant of the ADC is no slouch. Quite a lot of interesting stuff from an ADF ex-general officer.
Interestingly he doesn’t have a wiki page, which I take as a point in his favour.
By rights he deserves it. Trump was a great president until he listened to Fauci. And then he proceeded to destroy Western civilization. If it wasn’t for DeSantis, every country on the planet would be like ours.
If this bloke is against Russia, who is the most dangerous to your life?Klaus or Putin?
Who’s more dangerous to Canadians?
Some particularly good memes here. Apparently putin is still on Twitter but Trump is still banned
Did you expect Putin to leave the ethnic Russians in the Donbass that declared independence unprotected while Azov units operated with impunity?
They’re not going to. That should be obvious by now.
The “emergency” has passed, but if they haven’t relinquished the “emergency powers” by now and downgraded to a management position (which they should by rights have been able to do all along if properly prepared – or not always intending to destroy the joint under their SOE), then they’re not going to relinquish those powers, just morph the “emergency” into something different and continue as planned.
Marise Payne.
Meanwhile, Australia is sending $70m worth of missiles and bullets to Ukraine.
As I’ve noted before, we can’t guarantee that some of this won’t be passed on to neo-Nazi militias who would not hesitate to use it on Russian civilians.
In seven years of doing the same thing the US hasn’t been able to make such a guarantee.
The hypocrisy of our government is damning.
It was fitting that Martyn put this up on youtube on Ash Wednesday.
It brought to my mind an article I read this morning from First Things:
Marked by Death.
Colonel – I hope not. I’d have to go and find my lead-lined undies.
ACT Policing has publicly stated that the Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs) in question were only used to convey spoken-word messages.
“Ok, you got us. We did have loaded assault rifles at the protest but we only fired off a few rounds to get people’s attention at the back of the crowd.
Honest…”
Dover – I may have inadvertently reported Tom’s post at 04:02.
Please ignore. Error on my behalf.
Perfection.
Thanks cohenite!
It’s too coherent. Should be something like “I’d like to give them Ukrainians weapons, but I left them all in Iran’.
The same morons that think the Russian air force has the same doctrine, combined-arms integration and level of equipment sophistication as the US and partner air forces. Just with Migs rather than F-16s.
As a fellow Cat linked yesterday, this is not the case.
What Russian civilians?
The Donetsk and Luhansk regions are recognised as ‘independent’ by Russia, but are not actually Russian.
Ethnic Russian, indeed. But not formal citizens.
More importantly, the obsession with nazi adherents oppressing russians is confusing.
Slavs are Slavs. If they hate each other and wish to annihilate those who are not quite like them, they will. Actually, I’ll go one further- ALL humans are like this, and will do it if they think they can succeed. Whatever badges, flags or marching songs they employ while doing so has no bearing on the situation.
Ethnic Ukrainians monstering ethnic Russians is what the real fuss is about. The nazi tag is just a thing unique to the Azovs, but I am sure that in this day and age someone would have called them a pack of ‘nazis’ or ‘fascists’ anyway. As it is now just a term for someone we really don’t like. Whatever the reason.
What if you agree with Russian Toady that the Ghost of Kiev was a fake?
Awful stuff. Literally life in prison for telling the truth.
Cohenite – He’s good! I like this one. And just for balance I’ll add this New York Post story via Instapundit, which, since it has photos is probably not safe for work.
War is heck.
1. They rapped? (“Spoken word”).
2. “Conspiracy-fact”?
If Kafka was around today, and he experienced “Service NSW”, then his novel The Trial would be twice the length.
Mrs TE and I just spent (our first) two hours there.
Had a poke back at the site nurse yesterday after she gloated I had to be booked for my 3rd shit shot.
I innocently asked “does this mean ill be immune then” and followed up with “well i cant pass it on now”…
She didnt like it “they were never going to provide immunity/stop you passing it on” she replied before wanting me to drop the topic when I asked what was the point of them then.
Long time ago 1 year…. when vaccines would “stop the spread”.
Look at this horrible over-reaction by Putins thugs.
Its not like she was protesting against lockdown laws or mandatory vaccinations!

Rex,
Russia has issued 700 000+ passports to residents opf those regions in the last few weeks.
So not only are they ethnically Russian, they are now Russian citizens.
Inside Donetsk, the separatist republic that triggered the war in Ukraine

Prophetic.

The sped Strela comes not back.
Old jungle saying.
And given the history of the region I can’t dismiss the lingering spirit of Nazism so blithely (definitely no ‘Hail to thee, blithe spirit’ here!)
These aren’t people we are labelling as Nazis, they self-identify as such.
Roger – There’s an election in about two months time.
The MSM have been very Ukrainophilic.
The internal polls are saying SEND STUFF THAT GOES BANG TO UKRAINE NOW.
Not possible to avoid. Labor is on side too.
If you have an hour and a half to spare listen to the podcast of Victor Davis Hanson speaking to John Anderson on the issues in Ukraine and later – on why the West is in rapid decline. He is a wonderful classical historian who puts his stupendous intellect and insight into interpretation of modern times.
Scary – but SO important.
https://johnanderson.net.au/direct-victor-davis-hanson-v/
Funny, Hunter’s Laptop, the one the MSM wouldn’t let us see before the Dem Theft of the US Govt, wasn’t just about his crack addiction but his Ukraine ties and other corruption he did for his father.
Then bang, we get the Wu Flue diversion.
Lied to, lied to death even, for two years and finally people on all sides wake up to lies to the point where they have to stop selling the the Wu Flu lie.
Then bang, we get the Ukraine diversion.
Now all the same [fill in all the worst words you want] narrative pushers who wouldn’t let us see Hunter’s laptop & lied about Wu Flu, tell us that their personal blood money laundry that is the Ukraine (and has been for over 8 years, before they got Ukrainian Nazis to blow up Ukrainian civilians), is somewhere they want Westerners (who they haven’t killed & maimed with Wu Flu Jabs yet), to go and fight & die for, on their own dime, like bargain basement mercenaries.
Think whatever you want of all other players but the Ukraine Govt, it’s literal Nazi terror squads & it’s Western controllers, ARE THE BAD GUYS.
Bruce, it’s certainly convenient timing for Morrison.
But the truth is a Liberal PM never saw an American sponsored war he didn’t like.
Entertaining.
So, an excuse and pretext and goad to Ukraine all at once.
Are we still only bashing on the Ukraine because debbil-debbil string-pulling Western oligarchs, or are we looking at the bastardry on both sides?
De facto claiming someone else’s people as your own (regardless of the cries about Minsk I/II, etc.) while you do not control the territory they live in would be reasonably described as an act of war if, say Germany did it to France (again). But it’s okay because it’s on the Russia/Ukraine border, and the Ukrainians have a bunch of folk who describe themselves as nazis?
I said yesterday that people are making Ukraine the sacrificial proxy and scapegoat for their hatred of the elites here in the West who screwed them over. And ignoring every little sub-nuance of the post-Berlin Wall history of both Russia and Ukraine.
And name-dropping dilletantes and ideological stooges in the Biden administration who have previously been heavily involved there doesn’t denote any particular degree of understanding. Corruption and dealmaking of the sort we are all pissed off with is a rich man’s game.
Look at the little people and their history, feuds and take on the matter. For all the fuss about string-pulling, the little people would not have backed Euromaidan if they thought it was just a bunch of rich folks in Kiev having a LARP.
The claim was posited here that Western elites have made the mistake of thinking that other elites are just like them, and been surprised by the Russian elite.
I put it to the Cat that We the People here make exactly the same mistakes when we assume the little people like us over there are exactly the same as us and make good/bad pronouncements about them, their actions and intent.
In these times? I would prefer Mike Pompeio. Sure, he was a CIA boss. But he was also in the US army in his earlier life – how many US Presidents can claim that? If you have seen recent photographs of him ….he is fighting fit, having (it looks like) lost half his body weight.
He has been very quiet of late…….
Only because you want them to be, Queen of the Nuffies.
You wouldn’t give a shit otherwise, and if it were, for example Romania v. Bulgaria, you’d be screaming your tits off about whichever one your Nuffy networks told you were bad.
Makes it sound like she was boiling shoe leather for sustenance
or sledding supplies across Lake Lagoda.
Not a one year old when the siege was lifted.
sounds like someone has bested Tim Blair
A favourite point I make:
If I asked you three years ago what a vaccine does you would have said it stops you catching a disease. Had I followed up by asking how this worked you would have said something along the lines of having a calibrated small dose of the disease against which the body produces antibodies – then when it encounters the disease again it is ready armed.
So the question becomes – what superseding science have we learned over the last two years that convinces you now that you can take a vaccine which does not fight the disease in your body where the vaccine is, but will protect other people’s bodies?
I don’t know of anyone here who’s made that assumption. Russians (and Ukrainians) are different from us religiously, culturally & in the way they do politics.
But they are human beings.
When one can’t defend one’s country, and needs the US to do it for you, that is the inevitable result.
We could defend our country if we were prepared to.
We’re not.
Not much of a country, eh?

The Christian position on the Russian/Ukraine conflict is to demand that Zelenskyy immediately stops using Ukrainians as human meat shields to protect the Clinton laundering state from a superior power and to just surrender already.
See T.E.’s comment upthread on what would make a good start in that direction.
“…sparking debate about whether she was endorsing his homophobic messages.”
I see.
So when someone in the majority expresses their sincerely held belief that some minorities actions are immoral, and do so without demanding that they are prevented from living as they see fit, without demanding that they be silenced, and most certainly without call to violence against them of any sort, said “targeted” group is within their rights to denigrate that speakers beliefs, ban that speaker from “polite society”, and ruin that speakers career.
And this is “democracy”?
This is “tolerance”?
This is clearly some new meaning of those words, of which I have previously been unaware.
Or perhaps I am able to to apply the same standard to those who profess hatred of the white patriarchy and I will be supported? No? Thought not – hypocrite.
Here is but one answer:
The Wussia Wussia Wussia will not die….
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/mar/02/time-to-confront-trump-putin-network
In 2014, the Putin regime invaded Ukraine’s Crimea. In 2016, the same regime invaded the United States. The former took place as a conventional military operation; the latter was a spectacular case of cyberwarfare, including disinformation that it was happening at all and promulgation of a lot of talking points still devoutly repeated by many. It was a vast social-media influencing project that took many forms as it sought to sow discord and confusion, even attempting to dissuade Black voters from voting.
…
On 30 October 2016, then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reidput out a furious letter to then-FBI director James Comey, charging “it has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and coordination between Donald Trump, his top advisors, and the Russian government – a foreign interest hostile to the United States, which Trump praises at every opportunity.”
…
The Republican party met its new leader by matching his corruption, and by covering up his crimes and protecting him from consequences, including two impeachments. The second impeachment was for a violent invasion of Congress, not by a foreign power, but by right-wingers inflamed by lies instigated by Trump and amplified by many in the party. They have become willing collaborators in an attempt to sabotage free and fair elections, the rule of law, and truth itself.
Daniel Greenfield is extraordinary. Putting Blair up on a level with Mr Greenfield is a serious credit to Tim Blair.
Do not miss FPM, and especially Greenfield’s blog on the RHS sidebar. And Sultan Knish.
Are we still only bashing on the Ukraine because debbil-debbil string-pulling Western oligarchs, or are we looking at the bastardry on both sides?
Some people get way too complex and smart about these things.
Both sides are bad. But, which side has the potential to rub out or further expose a fair amount of corrupt goings on that a party of our perhaps greatest ally has their fingerprints all over. This same party and their cohorts have corrupted media globally and influence political parties in many countries, like Australia.
If any good comes from Russian involvement in Ukraine then that may just mean the US becomes a leader and beacon for the west again. God knows it’s not now and every other western country takes its lead.
Robert James Lee Hawke cares to differ
Only disagreement I have is on 3 fleet carriers.
4 or 5 might be better- 1 for each ocean, 1 for regional cruises, ‘good neighbour’ business (e.g. disaster response) and emergencies, and 1 in refit/workup at any one time.
I meant the assumption that Ukrainians and Russians are just like us.
Roger – I’ve advocated the Swiss model for some time now.
Hard sell to the Tik Tokkers though.
The Russian speaking people in those regions have been waging an eight year civil war to separate from Ukraine and the the western puppet junta that overthrew the “pro russian” president they elected in 2014, you dumbshit.
God spare us these boomermencucks!
Uranium One or Bursima.
Decisions, decisions.
Thank you, Evil Elvis.
The side-picking over the last 2 or so weeks here has been irritating. Especially as everyone loudly (or otherwise) declaring themselves for Vlad Bae would link even a single decent Slav video to prove their devotion.
#AllHardAss,NoHardbass
He didn’t differ, he bested them in his enthusiasm.
When I was at uni in the stoned age some lefty wag cut the Union Jack out of the flag and substitued the Stars & Bars and ran it up a flagpole. I thought it was a bit sophomoric at the time but on looking back it did serve as quite pointed commentary on our foreign policy, or the lack thereof, as demonstrated by successive primer ministers.
Having our own foriegn policy does not mean jettisoning the US alliance; but it does mean evaluating foreign military interventions according to our sovereign interests and not America’s. Or China’s, for that matter. As stated above, that means we also need military power to protect our interests. It’s never been clearer that we can’t rely on the US for our security indefinitely.
Especially as everyone loudly (or otherwise) declaring themselves for Vlad Bae would NOT link even a single decent Slav video to prove their devotion.
Dammit…
Grrr…prime ministers…own foreign policy….
Don’t we have problems supplying enough sailors to man current subs never mind the 12 in the future and carriers.
Being a unionised rail worker sure seems to get you a lot of time on your hands.
I’ve been put out of work by Palaschook and still can’t get the 24/7 thing happening like ol’ choo choo man.
And all he does is try to ingratiate himself into the gang by poking his digital tongue out at those who they deem not in the peer group.
“We” when no one has agreed with him.
It reminds me of those scenes in movies where the timid gang member, way above his depth, decides he’ll step out in front and say “so there” “ner ner ner” only to shit himself when the others aren’t behind him anymore.
You can’t trust your freight to these people.
They’ll charge like wounded bulls of course, but cowardly, behind your back via taxation.
And doesn’t he pipe up from his toy soldiers and spitfire model kit when talking about military equipment.
That glue can be overwhelming.
Dumb as a bag of hammers, this one will go straight to the forgettery.
It’s getting serious.
Joe Hockey and Dan Quayle have resurfaced.
Pundit futures are up.
You would not have cared, but for the fact it has suddenly become politically fashionable into care. And to unquestioningly back the Little Green Men from over the border who fomented and escalated that spearatist fight in the first place.
Submariners are a special breed, but yes, that does highlight that recruitment needs to be addressed.
Like building a defence deterrent in general, that’s not an insurmountable problem but clearly we need a rethink & a new approach.
Just killed a brown snake hiding under the grain bag we are unloading. Too near to the work zone to be left alone.
Between the eyes with my Cyclone shovel.
I wonder how the manlet ever managed to get into or back out of SA, given that socialism sits him on his arse so frequently. Does his Nuffy network have some sort of untraceable donation system so almighty-but-unemployed Heroes of the Highways like himself can have the funds to move places?
I am so sorry that practical knowledge on a subject of interest overwhelms you, manlet.
If talk on the Cat ever turns to however many gearsticks you have to play with to make a semi-trailer move (aside from your own), you will be duly summoned…
What’s worse is how few dare call out such ill willed idiots.
I really do miss the days when all cats called out all idiocy & lies rather than let it sit as if legitimate, for fear of the wrath of the mob.
Again, a classic example of the job of social media propagandists; spend years building up respect for integrity so that when The Big Lies have to be sold, very few think to question their ‘trusted friends’ and if those still reasonable friends don’t even bother questioning, let alone correcting, the big bullshit pushers, the bullshit is accepted as legitimate.
“…“Service NSW”, then his novel The Trial would be twice…”
That’s because you neglected to recognise that “service”, in this instance, is in the, ummm, “agricultural” or “animal husbandry” sense. And once you recognise that, it all becomes much clearer.
You’re welcome.
Now remember Cats, if you do not give Struth his demanded quota of upticks for ‘destroying’ this debbil-debbil unionised koala and other-random-gibberish-Struth-thinks-sounds-cool-to-denounce-and-rubbish-the-people-he-doesn’t-like-because-they-once-upset-his-hyperinflated-and-fragile-ego, he will just continue to wordwall you until he does.
Give the man his 90 upticks and let him get on with his day.
The wordwalls will continue until the upticks improve…
useful idiots.
Wow- The most vehement anti-groupthinker on this site demands groupthink because there are people who do not agree with hers…
I drive this thing with a sterring wheel.
Does his Nuffy network have some sort of untraceable donation system so almighty-but-unemployed Heroes of the Highways like himself can have the funds to move places?
I did it with the money from working I saved and didn’t have to surrender to the government to pay for unionised, useless general freight rail systems.
Oddly enough, when one of your communist/socialist 1890’s transport system derailments occur that closes the entire line for weeks, sometimes months, we got to work twice as hard carting the freight to pay the taxes to fix the rail…………
There seems to be no difference in being unemployed as far as time on your hands compared to being employed by the railways, except for salary.
Let’s all sing….
“You can’t touch me, I’m part of the union, you can’t touch me I’m part of the union.
No you can’t touch me, I’m part of the union, ’cause I am a union mann”

Ah geez. That reminds me – it’s almost time for the cyclical internet rumour again, to wit: ‘A mate of a mate knows a tradie on the RAAF base in Darwin. He reckons lots of transport planes came in overnight, and now there are thousands of troops with blue berets said to be ready for deployment south….’
Assisted by technology, no doubt, but unassisted by spellcheck.
Seriously, do you actually do anything, Comrade?
Besides Hobbytek?
Now why would a lard head from Vicpol want to know about the rifles of pig shooters for?
Got some mates to report back to, KD?
Why so desperate to isolate me, manlet?
Did a nasty meany-poobum train once delay you really badly when you were rushing to get home?
I’d like five carriers but trying to see what might get through the addled minds of the taxpayers.
Re submariners, just pay them twice the salary of surface fleet people, and then stand back in the rush. For that matter, if you want to increase the size of your defence forces – and of course we should – then up the salaries across the board, while closing down all of the woke nonsense.
Railways, when it comes to general freight, are the ABC of transport.
Reduce you from the barnstorming Performance Artist for FREEEE’M you claim to be, to the nasty, petty little anklebiter you really are.
And I’m really quite good at it. 🙂

How dare you speak sense, Top Ender! 😀
The problem being that all the other public servants will try to demand a pay rise, too.
Yeah St. Ruth. I’ll be on the phone. Because you’re soooo important to the resistance – so much so you’ve proclaimed yourself to be an ASIO target before. The conversation will go like this:
‘There’s a bloke on the internet saying he met 20 pig shooters at an undisclosed location in another State.
‘Yeah, it’s as though he’s met up with the French Resistance, an underground heavily-armed guerrilla force ready to take out the Establishment. Yes, I know that you have all the guns already.
‘You’re right. It does sound like he’s in an episode of ‘Allo ‘Allo.’
Ha ha ha. Sooooo important.
Get over yourself, Tickets St. Ruth.

Interesting statements from some of the heavyweights of American strategic thinking, dating back to shortly after the collapse of the Soviet union.
The 1970s called, Struth.
They’d like their anachronistic attitude back, please.
They’re also quite happy to take you and your illegal fatigue logbook-fudging Road Warrior ways back as well…
Facts are a problem for you aren’t they comrade?
See, I never complied with tyranny to keep my union job that gives you time to spend 24/7 on the net.
You did.
Let’s face it.
You’re in dept up to your eyeballs because you thought you were set for life, a union job in the choo choos and couldn’t knock back the jab.
You even started a hobbyteks military models hobby with your big train set in the garage.
You’ll take boosters, heck even a government cock up your arse (probably less deadly) than sacrifice anything.
Yet all the while exposing the contempt you have for yourself by taking it out on those that didn’t submit.
Sorry, but you did deserve that.
Cheif idiot KD.
Try to follow with your plod brain.
I just thought it might be good news to know there are young men with guns very resistant to the jab and what is going on.
I never spoke about myself.
I spoke about them.
So now here’s a question.
Did you quit the force or were you booted for not being able to look at evidence and analise it while getting yourself all confused and brain hurty?
it’s a good one
The DNC-WEF-Washington War Machine wanted a war and they were going to make it happen one way or another
Don’t laugh! When Malcolm Fraser gave the Services a major pay rise in the early 80’s, I was gravely assured that “the rest of the public service will be entitled to a similar pay rise…”
don’t forget the other grinning idiot- Harris.
Roger is correct- with proper leadership Australia could defend itself and produce everything it needs- even Nerada tea is better than Twinings.

No responsibility taken, but there’s a lot talk about this around
Smart Cities”, “Resilient Cities”, This is how the NWO is Forcing YOU in them Wake Up!!!
I don’t know whether any of this is feasible, but I’m 100% certain that, if it is, they would do it because there is absolutely nothing that they draw the line at.
It might well outperform Pfizer in that regard… 😉
Look, as much as I appreciate you pumping your ancestral – albeit barrel-stuffing – home up, the news that people with guns are not happy with the current shit state affairs is not in fact news.
I would be more concerned if they all genuinely believed that millions of people in this country will start dropping off the twig en masse in April 2023. That is 13 months from now, as you would have everyone believe.
Or, if those people genuinely believed that they would be loaded onto cattle cars and shipped to extermination camps already pre-fitted with gas piping into the showers. Which is something else you would have everyone believe.
Speaking of which – where are the leaks, the whistleblowers from the tradies putting the shower gas pipes in?
Or is this another one of those things that aren’t true but you say anyway to – and I quote – ‘shock people into taking action’?
bing bong st ruth is irate
What? Analise it?
Do you mean stick evidence up my arse, like drug mules?
With analising sterring wheels, perhaps it might be best if you stop with ‘I can read plain English’ when talking about your glove box copy of the Constitution you wave at taxi drivers.
Because that was another bullshit story. Tickets.
Without WEF traitors in government and the swamp for the last few decades, Australia could have, and should have been a superpower.
Scoffers here, who, as you see above, I can get a little short with, are typical of many in Australia, who when the reality and facts are stark and overwhelming, like to play the “sensible” middle of the road guy, when in fact, what they are ,are a disaster for our nation and filled and filled with fearful denialism.
THE WEF IS AT WAR WITH THE WEST and is attempting a socialist gov/corp fascist takeover with the people they have inserted into governments world wide. Especially in the west.
Especially in Canada and Australia….where those same resources to produce everything we need and the ability to defend ourselves gets stolen and we become enslaved.
By digital control.
Klaus and his mates are salivating at the level of tyranny they’ll be able to achieve with new digital technologies, which the likes of comrade choo choo above have been scoffing at for two fucking years.
The damage they do in attempting to sooth themselves by denouncing the bleeding obvious as conspiracy theory by “nuff nuff’s” while the last two years have made them look like the idiots they are, does a very great diservice to our nation.
There comes a time when the psychological collapse of some cannot afford to be tolerated for your nation and for your freedom’s sake.
I am?
You’re a forensic auditor now too, eh Struth? Shame you can’t spell…
I think you’re lying to us all about how you’re a non-compliant hero.
Your projection skills are so accomplished, it is quite clear that you’ve actually been working for Hoyts on the sly this whole time.
And I’m pretty sure that Hoyts require all their staff to be fully vaccinated…
Submariners are a special breed, but yes, that does highlight that recruitment needs to be addressed.
The biggest problem with ADF recruitment is the “what the fuck are we defending?” factor.
Put my neck on the line so I can continue to be treated like livestock?
And while I was writing that, they went ahead and proved me right, yet again.
Awww… Struth’s got a real class enemy to project all his Nuffiness onto.
Innee cute? 🙂
Just as well I have broad shoulders and I’m on an RDO today. Else he’d be wasting his time trying to anklebite at everyone else…
Only someone who doesn’t want to deal with the facts start on the spelling.

I don’t give a fuck if I mispel u werd hear and their, the arguments I present are sound, so those retreating to spelling nazis are quite pathetic.
After two years and so much wrongology and scoffing….
Wake up to yourselves.
Have you no shame?
RDO’s in the choo choo’s are rare and only occur consecutively with days ending in Y.
RDO’s……how fucking unionised.
Struth needs someone to be Stunning and Brave at, or life has no meaning.
Poor Struth.
I’d invite him to come be a unionised Comrade on the dratted communist choo choos that keep this country rolling, but given he hates being up at night and away from his bed (even when he was allegedly a real Hero of the Highways) and his understanding of the logistical networks of this country he proclaims he was once a part of is outright cartoonish, I think he wouldn’t last very long…
Which is why you constantly resort to personal insults, correct?
I have some pride, thanks.
You do hate yourself, don’t you?
Feel like a failure?
Like you gave in and resent the people that didn’t?
Don’t worry, it’s not obvious or anything.
trains don’t go choo choo anymore- they growl and purr
Tickets.
What are you going to do when this is over – not that it’s been good, and it’s not over yet – but when it’s over, the cattle cars haven’t come to take The People to the death camps, when not everyone dies 13 to 43 months from now and when the chemtrails haven’t killed the remainder?
And when the next crisis develops?
I mean, aside from a handle change.
Serious question.
You keep using these words- I do not think they mean what you think they mean…

From RT:
Some 498 Russian servicemen have been killed and nearly 1,600 wounded during the ongoing assault on Ukraine, Russia’s military claimed on Wednesday.
The Defense Ministry refuted reports that there have been “countless” casualties, branding the claims as deliberate disinformation originating from the adversary. According to Russian military estimates, Ukrainian army units and far-right paramilitaries have reportedly lost at least 2,870 soldiers, while a further 3,700 have sustained various wounds. Some 572 Ukrainian servicemen have been taken prisoner, the ministry added.
Russian units involved in the offensive are comprised solely of professional soldiers, the military has said, refuting allegations that the invasion force consisted largely of “conscripts.”
The official casualty figures announced by Moscow differ drastically from the claims voiced by Kiev, which said more than 5,800 Russian soldiers had perished since the invasion began.

Russian cats slapped with sanctions
The International Feline Federation (FIFe) has weighed in on the Ukraine crisis, banning Russian-owned cats from competing in its shows as a sanction for Moscow’s military attack on the former Soviet republic.
“The FIFe executive board is shocked and horrified that the army of the Russian Federation invaded the Republic of Ukraine and started a war,” the Paris-based federation said on Tuesday. The group added that it “cannot just witness these atrocities and do nothing.”
As a result, cats belonging to Russian residents will be banned from entry at FIFe shows. In addition, no cats bred in Russia can be imported and registered in a FIFe pedigree book, the group said.

But if we don’t win that is exactly what is planned.
It’s not conspiracy theory, and there is no way you can argue it is.
They started building those camps the very first week of two weeks to flatten the curve, when they claimed to know nothing of covid.
Any cop with half a brain should have been able to put that together, hence I asked you if you were sacked….you either are in denial, or you couldn’t put the bleeding obvious together and they had to keep you on traffic duty.
But before we can win, first things first, we have to get scoffing denialist idiots like yourself to see it is already happening.
People are already dying from the jab now.
And it’s still being forced on people.
That makes those doing it murderers.
But you seem to trust these types.
Is that a left over from your training that has turned other dumb bastards in vicpol into stasi?
Look, what’s eating you two up, I get it, is that what I’ve been on about for two years has been proven true.
It really sticks in your craw.
I get that.
You know this is not about a virus and never has been, you do by now, but you prefer to take the lazy, concerned how you appear to the other sheep, position and scoff away.
What I don’t get is that you delude yourself.
You virtually had to take a bullet to see your mother interstate, and yet you want to deny it was anything to be up in arms about.
People are dying all over the place from the jab, it’s happening already, and for the very reasons the inventer and others said they would die.
Insurance companies are seeing massive increases in deaths and nearly everyone knows someone who has become seriously ill with side effects or died from the jab.
Yet you scoff at this.
Have some fucking responsibility about yourself and stop denouncing the bleeding obvious, smacking you in the face, as conspiracy theory to make yourself feel better.
Dot just got hinself jabbed.
I know it wasn’t me that made him feel like it’s nothing to worry about.
Walker’s no longer described as “a troubled teenager….”
WA records one COVID death as 2,423 new cases reported and hard border comes down
I would put money on this “one Covid death” being a death with Covid rather than a death from Covid. No one is or was in ICU with Covid, and loads of the active Covid cases are really old.
How petty can the anti-Russia pressure groups get? Putin has his judo black belt revoked, and now Russian cats can’t enter cat shows? What next – is Russia going to be removed from atlases and maps?
All this is just ensuring more enemies for the Weston overlords. So woke, so much virtue signaling.

Which one was that, Struth?
Wellcamp, which had been fought over for planning permission as general-purpose transient worker accommodation for some time before last year’s polocy change on international arrivals?
The hastily repurposed immigration detention facility in the NT, that had been there since Rudd-Gillard-Rudd-Abbott-Trumble times?
The myriad hotels hastily pressed into service by on-the-fly policymaking?
Or have you imaginated something else you cannot (or will not because you cannot) link to, and will call me more names about instead to distract from the fact you cannot do anything to support that claim?
No.
No, this is all been about you, comrade.
Give up the idiocy of the scoffing.
It’s been two years, and whatever you think of SRR and people like her, you call nuff nuffs, the truth is she’s been a thousand times more correct than you, and you’ve just shown yourself to be a denialist.
You may have your reasons, but make no mistake, it’s so abundantly clear what is happening now, that your continuing scoffing just looks like fear.
You can’t be that thick.
The reality is not nice, but scoffing at it doesn’t change it, and doesn’t make it go away.
And as a man, you have a responsibility to stop acting like a scared teenager.

I know a bloke wot knows a bloke, and he says the BRS defamation case is getting down to the true facts of the story – “BRS was awarded a V.C. and I wasn’t.”
“This case and the BRS defamation case are watersheds. If either guy loses serious shit has hit the fan.”
You forgot another case and if it succeeds then such things as evidence and innocence until proven guilty has been completely chucked out the window…and that’s with the accused in the Higgins case.
I reckon BRS will lose his defamation case. As for Rolfe….I don’t know.

Denmark to allow citizens to fight in Ukraine
Copenhagen has said that Danes are free to “contribute directly” to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
Copenhagen has revealed it will allow Danish nationals to join the international military force Kiev plans to set up to aid its own military in the conflict with Russia.
“It’s a choice that anyone can make. This goes for all Ukrainians who live here, but also for others who think they can contribute directly to the conflict,” Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen told a press conference on Sunday.
“There is nothing at first sight that would legally prevent someone from going to Ukraine to participate in the conflict, on the Ukrainian side,” Frederiksen added. Earlier, the PM took part in a massive protest against Moscow’s operation in front of the Russian embassy in Copenhagen, telling the crowd that “it is all of you and all of Europe who are threatened by Russia.”
It comes after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced the creation of Ukraine’s International Legion of Territorial Defense, which would make it possible for foreigners to join its ranks and fight alongside the Ukrainian military against Russian and Donbass forces.
Many countries have their own laws that prohibit its citizens from fighting in foreign wars unless part of a proscribed military force from that nation. But Zelensky’s call for foreigners will attract plenty of mercenaries and guarantees that Russia will not cease their push until they get to the far western border of Ukraine. Russia cannot stop ‘half way’ lest the other half be filled with EU and US supplied weapons and many thousands of Ukrainian and international fighters.
so ugly too

Shes just appealing to a more discriminating audience.

You want atrocities and people shot out of hand.
Because this is how you get atrocities and people shot out of hand.
Of course the scoffing denialists can’t deny facts when put on the spot.
So it’s attempt to shoot the messenger, which always fails.
However, facts are facts, and when they are so, they are not conspiracy theories.
I call them facts.
However, there are conspiracy theories, and I’ll state they are conspiracy theories, that may be scoffed at, or researched further by the smarter amongst us.
Drones are handy little things and the Australian government have been seeding clouds, just like many countries very successfully.
With little rockets and planes and now drones as well.
The weekend just passed was going to be a massive one as far as protests were concerned.
Again this is a conspiracy theory, I do not claim otherwise.
But what do we really know anymore?

Don’t we have problems supplying enough sailors to man current subs never mind the 12 in the future and carriers.
Also, the USN has under a dozen fleet carriers, I somehow doubt (however desirable it might be) that we are going to build up to three (or more) in the next half century. Better (and probably faster) to take the nuclear option.

Cassie you can download An Officer and a Spy from this site. http://bayareahealthpsychology.com/dreyfus.php I’ve checked it and it works.
We did quite OK with HMAS Melbourne in the time we had her. So a fleet of smaller ‘Jeep’ or ‘Light’ carriers with Hornets or a suitable light multi-role fighter (heaven forbid, some of them unmanned) and some decent ASW helos or patrol drones onboard would fit the bill.
Even China’s Russian-derivative designs are not true fleet carriers, but they and their task groups will have a strategic effect beyond proportion to their numbers and actual capability wherever they turn up. So why not have similar?
your government loves you, this guy is a fruit loop…..or is he?
I dunno?

Because this is how you get atrocities and people shot out of hand.
Yes, and I am appalled at the Ukrainian government arming civilians and providing the most rudimentary training in weapon handling over a couple of days. The government itself has been posting video/photos of the program.
The fact is that if a Russian soldier sees you with a gun, you will be a target. He won’t care that you are just some well-meaning civilian. You are toast.
And if this international coalition of international fighters actually gets off the ground, then it may promote a blood bath.
In an address to the people of Ukraine, Mr Zelenskyy said everyone who could “join the struggle against the invaders must do so.” And he meant everyone.
He said prisoners with combat experience would be released from jail, and told them to “compensate for their guilt in the hottest spots of war”. Ukrainian men and women have volunteered in droves to get weapons and learn how to defend their country. Authorities have handed out weapons to anyone willing to fight, teaching them how to use assault rifles and throw grenades.
On Tuesday Mr Zelenskyy signed a decree temporarily lifting the requirement for entry visas for any foreigner willing to join Ukraine’s International Defence Legion. Already, Poland’s Border Guard has reported more than 22,000 Ukrainians from across Europe have travelled into the country to fight.
Meanwhile, in Thailand….
Hundreds of Thai citizens have sent the Ukrainian Embassy emails to apply to sign up for the international section of Ukraine’s territorial armed forces, according to a Facebook group created about the endeavour.
This was after the Ukrainian Embassy posted a notice on its premises appealing to foreign volunteers to enlist in the international legion of the territorial defence force.
The sign said “all volunteers with military experience who want to join the defence of Ukraine, Europe and world can come fight side by side with the Ukrainians ….”

Real Australians drink Bushells. Can you even get it now?
Rex, “jeep” carriers probably aren’t much good with modern jets. They weigh far more than WW2 aircraft and require far higher takeoff and landing speeds. With a ski jump a carrier doesn’t actually do much. A blogger called Neptunus Lex wrote about this over 10 years ago. He died in an F-21 near Fallon in a snowstorm in 2012.
Bwah ha ha ha.

A Hornet is not going to be able to operate off a Melbourne sized carrier. Nor is any modern jet fighter, other then a VTOL one (and then unlikely to be in useful numbers). Helos and patrol drones, yes, but that would not be a fleet carrier.
International Brigades anyone?
Thats the fantasy.
Reality can be a bummer though.
