For the Democrat filth to openly state that Israel has a Right to Self Defence, to my mind seems they were caught unawares big time and are scrambling to save some sort of face. I wonder if, for the first time in Israel’s modern history, the US had no foreknowledge that an attack was planned?
If so, the US government must be absolutely shitting itself that the Genie has smashed the bottle. Strings cut, no more control. An indicator of what could happen at home, in the States?

Pretty shocking stuff. At least this rucksack of shit which is Democrat meddling in the 2020 and 2024 is now fraying at the seams.

Israeli Amb.: ‘This Is our 9/11’ and We Will ‘Change the Equation’ of Gaza as a ‘War Machine’ — ‘Never Again Is Today’
Reminds me of an aphorism by Nietzsche:
I’m all ears if someone can explain to me the state of play between Hezbollah and Hamas, who now backs whom and if this has any shift in the regional powers client state base or their relative position & strength.
but again
i thank god theres none of that goin on round here
Iran finances both Hezbollah and Hamas.
I have been reading here and there that Iron Dome was basically “down”. If this is true, I dearly hope and yes, pray, that Netanyahu goes Biblical on the traitors.
No city on earth has suffered actual carpet bombing since 1945.
Gaza is an excellent opportunity to break that streak.

In light of events in Israel, Ben Roberts-Smith looks even better.
Channel Nein, you pack of leftist w@nkers.
Israel may have to do what they have often held back from doing against Hamas in Gaza and that is totally destroy the place.
Back to Jordan for the ‘occupiers’ of Gaza. Except Jordan doesn’t want the troublemakers either.
I hope the vile invaders get to have their 72 roots pretty quick.
Okay thanks. I think the regime and their military assets are deserving of reprisal. I wonder if that is what those lunatics want though?
Strong horse Dot. The MB is much diminished due to Al-Sisi and the war in Syria.
Hamas boss Haniyeh went to Soleimani’s funeral in Tehran.

NZ Foreign Minister refuses to condemn attacks
ANNE BARROWCLOUGH
New Zealand’s Foreign Minister has refused to condemn the Hamas attacks on Israel, instead calling for an “immediate cessation of violence.”
Nanaia Mahuta said on X this morning: “Aotearoa New Zealand is deeply concerned at the outbreak of conflict between Israel and Gaze.
“We call for the immediate cessation of violence. The protection of all civilians and upholding of international humanitarian law is essential.”
The above is the essence of woke, leftist, progressive ideology, siding with evil.
Well, at least it’s out in the open now, the progressive left are the supporters of Nazis, we here knew that anyway.
Hey pervert apologist, go punch those Nazis, there are lots of Nazis for you to punch in Gaza. Hop to it big boy, I know you’re lurking, you despicable grub.
As for “Aotearoa New Zealand “, I’ll correct that…….New Zealand
Who is this “Pence” person? I vaguely remember someone by that name having an uncanny knack of disappearing when most needed and reappearing when the coast was clear.
Classical decision making error where participants use simplistic technique to solve a complex or complicated problem.

Israel has to start throwing some nukes: first one on Tehran and then Lebanon. Palestine has to be destroyed. There are no civilians there. The lefties in Israel have to be treated as traitors. I’d be looking closely at that walking POS biden too.
I’m sure Hamas will see sense now they’ve heard the calll from the country formerly known as New Zealand.
The ridiculousness of these simple minded droolers in charge is limitless. Sadly for us.
I stand with Israel and NZ can eff right off with its gratuitous and pointless advice.
You have to be impressed with the surgical nature of the Israeli artillery/missile attacks:
https://twitter.com/CollinRugg/status/1710687477265252615
Cassie,
I am surprised the Kiwis haven’t back pedaled on their announcement. Many other self-appointed commentators attacked Israel before they had it pointed out to them what actually occurred.
To wit, Laurence Tribe’s furious back pedaling. All these morons still can’t comprehend “the Internet is FOREVER”.
The Israelis must be about ready to level Gaza. Soldier to soldier fighting is one thing, but kidnapping old people is downright evil.
See also: The Voice as an example of what I mentioned in my 9.33 comment.
Plus almost every brain fart the left have tried to implement.
The second objective, at the same time, is to exact an immense price from the enemy, within the Gaza Strip as well.

A comment by @JohnSmith-zo6ir caught my attention, reproduced in full below:
The Voice in NUMBERS for EVERYONE. Share to educate.
Please explain why we need a Voice to Parliament when Aboriginals are already over represented in parliament and enjoy benefits other Australians don’t get. The Voice is the very definition of SYSTEMIC racism.
Here are the numbers which most Australians don’t know:
• 3,278 Aboriginal corporations.
• 243 native title bodies.
• 48 land councils.
• 35 Regional Councils.
• 122 plus Aboriginal Agencies.
• 3 Advisory Bodies.
• 145 Health Organisations.
• 11 indigenous Federal MP’s.
• 12 culturally important indigenous days (even though Aboriginals come from Africa and are settlers, not indigenous).
• Tax payers give $30 Billion annually for 984,000 people (3.8% of the population).
• Expenditure per Aboriginal person in 2012/2013 was $43,449 on indigenous Australians compared to $20,900 on other Australians, which is a ratio of 2.08 to 1, an increase of 1.95 from 2009.
• Senator Price says Australian tax payers pay $100 million per DAY on direct support for indigenous Australians.
• Every year there is $39.5 Billion of direct government support to indigenous Australians. The figures are based on the 2017 Indigenous Expenditure Report produced by the Productivity Commission.
Where has all this money gone, because it definitely has not improved the lives of Aboriginals?
All the Voice is going to achieve is to add a new costly tax payer-funded unproductive, ineffective, corrupt “Elitist Canberra-based bureaucracy” embedded in the Constitution with zero accountability.
VOTE NO to Australian Apartheid, which is exactly what the Voice is.
It is SYSTEMIC racism without accountability.
Brilliant!
Apart from the Africa bit (Carpentarian Aboriginals are genetically related to the Veddas from Southern India/Sri Lanka) and the 30 – 39.5 billion discrepancy (the latter is the more correct amount) it is a brilliant summary. I think all will agree.
Emailed it to my NO campaign contacts, asking for a short information leaflet which can be spoken-to or preferably handed out (but would first require AEC approval) to the many low-or-no information voters out there.
Please distribute as widely as you can.
What I don’t understand is why western ‘media’ advertise or even suggest the West is running out of ammo? For farks sake, surely that’s an invitation for other nations with grudges to think about attacking each other. Serbia/Kosovo, now Israel. Who is next.
Further proof that the Third World War has started.
A waning Empire (the U.S.) has suffered a couple of humiliating defeats (Afghanistan, Ukraine).
Coupled with weak U.S. leadership, other countries/rising empires will seek to expand their interests in the coming years.
Those of us left once the dust settles will see that the official start to WW3 will be traced back to the Nordstream pipeline bombings…
Over 200 Jews dead, mainly civilians, not counting those taken into Gaza. This isn’t a war against an army, this is a war against a people, the Jewish people. This is about Nazis in 2023 annihilating the Jewish people. Read my lips.
Never again.

You go girl!

Further proof that the Third World War has started.
Nothing would have happened if Trump had not been cheated by the swamp: biden, obama and the rest of them have literally destroyed the US and started WW111.
I can’t understand why the aboriginals are even wearing clothes and shoes, driving cars. drinking beer and eating potato chips. All these things are “cultural appropriation”. I myself stay right away from items decorated with dot paintings. Of course, when reparations are due, there will be an accounting on our side of all the benefits accrued to aboriginals since 1778, won’t there. Should balance out, depending on the judge – oops, probably won’t then.
I know the pervert apologist is lurking this morning. Here’s a though, can we all chip in and send him to Gaza, coz in Gaza he can get to punch lotsa Nazis, he’ll be in heaven. Oh that’s right, I forgot, this is the same pervert apologist who wimped out on going to Malmo, in Sweden.
“The Jewish-American and Israeli left are as disgusting as every other leftist.”
Yes.
I suspect Hamas and IJ are doing this in an attempt to get Hezbollah to commit. That would be very dangerous if they do. We’ll see.
Trump:
“We Brought So Much Peace to the Middle East – Only to See Biden Whittle It Away” – President Trump Releases Statement on Hamas War on Israel (7 Sep)
Yep. He should’ve gotten the Nobel Peace Prize.
Things were pretty bad all during the Cold War.
Hamas is expending a lot of energy taking hostages – instead of just shooting them and continuing on.
Are they going to be human shields to protect Hamas assets?
What I don’t get regarding the grubs that seized power in the US in 2020, is that they are systematically wrecking the place both economically and socially but still behave like the world policeperson.
That was their aim.
Let’s not go overboard here. There are a few issues to contend with, but I don’t think things will go Kaboom. Hope.
Sit a few in front of a Hamas rocket launching site for example, rather than simply saying ‘if you do such and such we will kill hostages’.
It is the numbers that prompt this line of thought.
One would have to fear that the poor hostages will have to become collateral damage.
Of course, Hamas will not be blamed for their loss, Bibi will.
A disgusting but clrever strategy by Obama’s Hamas.
I’ll blame them. Even if I’m the only person on the planet who does.
Yappers will yap, the truth remains the truth.
Good on twitter & TikTok letting all this horrendous footage to be seen on their platforms.
Stops the deniers saying it never happened.
It was pretty worrying in those days. I recall just arriving in NYC and while ambling around you’d see a sign with the skull&bones atomic symbol colored in black and yellow to signify an atomic shelter in case of “rain”. They appeared to be spread out every 250 yards and were the basement levels of high-rise buildings.
I was in the trading room once, in Sydney, and a headline over the Reuters dealing systems suddenly appeared that air-raid warnings were going off in Seoul. Everyone thought it was on.
Trade goods, to be swapped for Hamas prisoners in Israeli jails.
Has Alcosleezy and Wong condemned Hamas yet? Wouldn’t surprise me if these commie scumbags haven’t.

I spent more than 20 hours on a pre poll booth this week, wearing NO hat and t shirt, handing out NO how to vote cards. I was only called a “moron” once and had a few disparaging head shakes. Nearly all people were polite and friendly and I never felt threatened. The only people who were really obnoxious were a number of volunteers for the YES side, while sprouting tosh about “democracy” they were very rude to anyone who intimated a NO position.
It was clear to me that the NO vote was winning at this booth. ( that may have contributed to the YES camp being grumpy)

Europe is being invaded by Muslims – a Hamas-style incursion of barbarians that is destroying nations one by one – at the invitation of Brussels. Meanwhile, Brussels is encouraging the mass slaughter of white Christians in the east on the invented pretext that the invasion will come from Russia. The US is also being invaded – again, by invitation.
Last week, Macron announced that he wants the ‘right’ to an abortion in the French constitution.
We are booked in to man “No” Vote next week. But there are desperate calls for more volunteers.
If anyone has some time please call the “No” camp to volunteer. Thanks people.
Which was their plan. I keep harking back to the 16 year plan meme (Obama/Clinton) I saw years ago. It included war and nuclear war.
Part of the reason Israel was attacked:

Meantime, we are praying for Israel.
I travelled to Israel on my own for Christmas decades ago. Family wasn’t really interested – so, I thought, OK, I will go on my own. What a revelation (literally, as I was hoping for some “epiphany”) – a stunning land, the living embodiment of our early Christian education, and a wonderful, “straightforward” people.
I hope they can unite again after their year of political division over the High Court appointments. I am sure they will. And yes – they should never have given up Gaza. You can never give then Palestinians enough…..
The UN convened an emergency meeting to vote on a motion submitted by Iran condemning Israel for gaining support by assuming the role of victim.

Well…..that “rave for peace” has quickly morphed into “rape for peace“, hasn’t it? Those girls and women have been RAPED and then murdered. I doubt many are alive.
Raping Jewish women is a time honoured and very pleasurable tradition for Muslim males. But remember, according to a cockroach who lurks here, they have “legitimate grievances”.

That’s it. The nukes have to fall. Palestine first, then in quick succession lebanon and iran.
I do not understand why Israel such restrictive gun laws.
“Further proof that the Third World War has started.

The defeats were expertly choreographed by the Swamp.
This apparently is the girl killed and videoed by the muslim scum.
Turning Gaza into rubble would be satisfying but the hostages complicate everything.
You can’t just abandon them.
Thing is, nothing is sacred to the other side. Certainly not their own people; they’re just pawns. You could even threaten to demolish Al Aqsa and they would not see reason. They are fanatics.
The IDF doesn’t seem to be in a mood to accept complications…
A lot of “neutralized” is going to be coming their way methinks.
It’s disappointing the Israeli government sent weaponry to Azerbaijan which helped the Azerbaijanis defeat the Armenians recently – forcing 100,000 Armenians to flee their enclave. I guess that’s the cold reality of geopolitics with Armenia being Russia-aligned and Israel using Azerbaijani oil.
This is an interesting article by Steve Waterson apologies if it has been posted previously:
Don’t tune into the BBC.
You’ll be enraged at the cavalcade of blame shifters and butchers assistants they are presenting as analysts.
Too many generations of faux “palestinians” have been coddled and brainwashed by their fellow Arabs for political gain against Israel for them to be redeemed. The evil is too deeply rooted in their souls for reason to penetrate.
Which is why they need to be crushed with extreme prejudice, the remnants sent back to Jordan from whence they came, and a hard-line border policy imposed to prevent their return.
In the meantime, I’m afraid the hard truth is that the likelihood of any hostages coming home alive is minimal. An object lesson of why borders are so important and must be defended.
Celebrations in Sadiq Khan’s London:
https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1710741314831093871
No arrests.
Firstly my thoughts are with Israel and the Jewish people around the world.
Listened to first 20 minutes of Spencer Howson 4BC show today. He started off with a round up of the news. Mentioned about 12 stories from Qld and around the country. Clearly going off the newspapers. No mention of Israel at all. Even if not in papers could have at least mentioned it briefly.
The shocking thing is how well planned it has been. How does a top Israeli General even get captured? Then there are the multiple hostage takings.
Obviously the IDF and politicians would have wargamed what to do in event of multiple hostage taking back into enemy territory. Problem is they are going to be held in multiple locations and there is so much going on that it will be hard to focus on rescue even if know where some are.
The Israelis are well known for their efforts in recovering their people and this is one of the aspects I admire about them. However unfortunately the hostage aspect is going to drag on for years and some have probably already been taken to other “friendly” countries. We know which country would like to talk to the General.
Another trait I admire about the Israelis / Jews is their ability in relation to retribution. As hostages are mistreated or killed this will be more severe and I will be hoping those who planned and took part in the attacks get their just reward.
In terms of leadership Netanyahu is going to have to make some very tough decisions which are going to cost lives. Hopefully more theirs than his own people. Unfortunately the enemy does not respect the lives of their own people as much as Netanyahu and his military does.
I hope Israel can get through this and wish it’s people peace and a safe existence again in the not too distant future.

I still remember very, very well the celebrations in the detention centre compound on 9/11.
Vast majority of whom were granted refugee visas into Australia.
Pallis were front and centre of the celebrators there as well.
I’d suggest the IDF go into Gaza and grab as many community leaders as they can find.
The terrorists can only survive if civic and local political leaders support them. Remove the administration.

Was that 1983? The KAL 747 shoot down? That was the kind of event that has the guidance systems on the ICBMs warmed up, and the silo door tested.
“Restraint” is the last thing that is needed or should be called for, against these scum.
Contrast the attitude of “progressives” like Wong’s on Ukraine vis-à-vis Israel; the former is allowed any means to defend itself, Israel virtually none at all.
Tinta, many thanks for posting Steve Waterson’s article on the Voice. It’s just opinion, so wouldn’t have read it otherwise, but it was extremely well written and argued.
Mention was made of a sports star at a polling station by Piers Akerman.
Last night saw a Tweet in relation to Adam Goodes at a polling station that fits Piers article. Did not register where it was.
Did anybody notice the PM at Lakemba mosque on Friday gathering support for the voice? Seems the word went out to all mosques to mention supporting the Voice during Friday prayers. There has been a concerted effort by the Yes campaign to elicit Muslim leader support with Noel from Noosa doing the same in Qld.
A week earlier PM had posed with religious leaders who were supporting the Voice. Add it to the list of “whatever it takes” by desperate Albo.
Clearly what this country needs is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Israel. In the Constitution.
The Liars tend to put uniting the country to one side when it comes to voting matters.
Another complication – Israeli forces have trained for and fought in urban settings like Jenin with hidden snipers, booby trapped roads, laneways and houses. They probably have less training and no experience in removing terrorists from their own townships.

I think it later than that- around 1985 or 1986. It was a headline saying their attack warning sirens had gone off in Seoul.
Impressive! Albanese and Wong should parachute into Gaza and ask the Palis to make peace. With such persuasive talent it would be a cinch.
Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong has come under fire after she called for Israel to act with “restraint” in the face of an unprecedented attack by Palestinian militant group Hamas.
Probably, just a late “thank you’ note to Qatar ( home of the HAMAS leadership) for not throwing “her” off a tall building during last week’s a**e -licking visit …….!

Why does BoN want to kill hostages?
Been rereading the George Smiley series. In Smiley’s People, Connie Sachs, the Russia watcher, has a dog called Trot. I immediately thought of Luigi the Unbelievable. Thing is Luigi is much further down the food tree than a dog.
Armoured bulldozers are you friend in such matters.
Hopefully the link works.
Unfortunately, I don’t have much hope for the hostages. I recall reading back about 15 years ago, that when islamist loons take hostages, it never turns out well for hostages. I kept that in mind and it’s held up reasonably well – not 100% but up there.
No Colonel I don’t want to kill hostages. It’s Hamas that kills hostages, not me. I don’t even want to kill Palis. However Israel should herd all the people in Gaza up one end of the place, raze every building, then let them live in the remaining rubble. UNRWA can feed ’em.
Turn off the services to Gaza, remove any Pali’s in Israel to Gaza, destroy Gaza infrastructure and no services returned until the Pali’s give up Hamas. Any rockets fired into israel from Gaza send two back. Eff Em.
So very generous of you, Mr fvcking Albanese.
Uploading gonzo videos of atrocities committed on the civilian population of Israel, featuring mostly women, children & the elderly, for viewing of vicariously thrilled & enthused supporters in Gaza & around the world.
Hamas does not yet realise this is an own goal.
“ London’s Metropolitan Police says it is aware of a “number of incidents” in connection to Hamas’s terror attack on Israel and will bolster “policing patrols” across the English capital, Sky News reports.
“We remain in contact with partners and community leaders to listen to any concerns,” the police says. “Anyone who experiences threatening behaviour or is worried about their safety is urged to contact police.”
“We will ensure that an appropriate policing plan is in place in order to balance the right to protest against any disruption to Londoners,” the adds.”
The last line above says it all. Prepare for a real life version of London has Fallen.

Meawnhile in idiotic Tasmanian news:
Classical music enthusiasts have expressed their disappointment at a decision by the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to scrap a planned “musical celebration of British pageantry” due to it falling on the night before the Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum.
The TSO had been set to perform the Last Night of the Proms concert at Federation Concert Hall on Friday, October 13 but decided to completely change the format of the event when the date for the referendum was announced as October 14.
but
Instead of the Last Night of the Proms, the TSO will now stage a family-oriented concert featuring some of the world’s most popular musical pieces.
Some concertgoers are not happy:
John Hammersley, of West Hobart, had been booked in to attend the original concert and while he plans to go to the new event, he said he was “a bit lost to know how [the TSO] could come up with cancelling [the Last Night of the Proms]”.
“I just thought it’s more of this ‘world gone mad’ [stuff],” he said.
“[It’s] stupidity, I think, where people seemingly think they need to be ultra-sensitive about a whole range of issues. In days gone by, it wouldn’t even have appeared on people’s radar.”
Melegueta Mattay, of Geilston Bay, said she had been set to go to the Last Night of the Proms but wouldn’t be heading along to the family-oriented concert, adding that she “didn’t see the point” of scrapping the original event “because it’s not signifying anything”.
“The referendum is quite separate, I would have thought,” she said. “It’s got nothing to do with anything. If they had Greeks dancing in the street and Italians dancing in the street, they wouldn’t have changed [it].”
Hobart Mercury
The State Department also furiously deleting and denying tweets.
Breitbart has an excellent ongoing timeline of news and information.
Youtube has all of the series, Tinker Tailor, Smiley’s People, and Karla, in one continuous three and a half hour video.
It is a bit of a trial. The clever dialogue and even the superb Alec Guiness become wearying after a while.
A touch less subtlety and a few more people being tossed out of windows would reduce the soporific quotient.
As much as I should like to see the Hamas mob staggering about trying, with desperate oaths to camel-arse stinking Allah, to staunch the flow of blood from their pudenda, recently gored by Israeli grandmothers and dogs…what I want most, and what I hope Bibi is alive to, is that whatever is done the agreements with the Saudis et al go ahead.
I am sure that Hamas’ actions are designed to disrupt or even kill the process, trying to drag everyone back to the baser level of Muslim solidarity.
I was thinking that Trump would have been the perfect President at this juncture but, of course, Iran would not have got such money with a free hand and Hamas been so quarantined from responsibility if he had been President.
It has taken a particularly baleful alignment of the planets – probably worst of which is planet Biden, where the only recognised laws of nature are cupidity, avarice, financial gain and bribery without dimensions of transcendent zealotry and fanaticism – for this to happen.
SATP – It’s on purpose. They’re trying to get Israel to react in such a way as to force the Hezbies and other muzzies to weigh in. Already we’ve seen Qatar, Saudi and Kuwait condemn the Israelis. Those regimes are scared of their people, for good reason. UAE was a little more careful in what they said, but the problem is the proles are full on from-the-river-to-the sea behind-rocks-and-trees genocidal maniacs.
I don’t know how the Israelis can thread the needle. It’s going to be tough.
Colonel, totally insulting evil garbage. You should know better than to say that. It is a window into your psyche that is very revealing. If you have read what I have written about the Pali-Israeli conflict for the last 15 years on this and Sinc’s Cat you would realize how disgusting your comment is. Go jump in a long drop toilet son, where you deserve to be, you are nasty and revolting.

Wonder how much of the weaponry left behind in Afghanistan is being used by Hamas.
In the last year, around here, horse poo has gone up from $2 to $5.
Nah. Let the Arab League feed them. They’ve kept this dangerous fiasco alive for over 75 years, they can clean up their own mess.

To clarify the last paragraph. I don’t think Biden and his cronies wanted this to happen. The possibility was as invisible to them as if it were written in ultra-violet reactive ink.
And even now his response will be to look at how he can enrich himself and his various leeches.
The weird thing is that he has gathered to himself such money that he could easily live out his last days like Tiberius on Capri with his ‘little fishes’ (look it up), his capriciousness can no longer driven by need as much as habit which – given his now fully disintegrated cognitive faculties would be all that is left.
ML – Yes, Tacitus was very caustic about Mr Tiberius Caesar. Biden is actually worse.

An older tweet from Adam Kredo is also looking like a harbinger (with hindsight).
@Kredo0 · Jan 21, 2021
That may have explained the initial “stand down” tweet.
It put the US apparently in a position of being more clearly against Iran and other supporters of Hamas than being with Israel.
The usefulness of Yet Another Foreign War as distraction for USA politics cannot be overestimated. Hence recent chatter being all about broadening the discussion to Iran, rather than some limited support focused on Hamas.
Fruit juice at $8 tastes much better than horse poo at $5.

Meanwhile in South Australia…..
A decision to cancel a Russian-themed children’s dance troupe from the line-up of an upcoming South Australian multicultural festival has prompted accusations of “discrimination”, but has been defended by the state’s multicultural affairs minister as “difficult” but “necessary”.
Zoe Bettison has confirmed she asked the Kalinka Russian Ensemble, which is for all age groups but is largely composed of local young people of Russian heritage, and the Russian Women’s Association not to attend the state’s Multicultural Festival in Victoria Square/Tarntanyangga on Sunday, November 12.
The minister said she was not at all “concerned about” either group, and that she has “high regard” for both of the associations which she had “asked not to come”.
But she said her decision, which followed lobbying efforts by the state’s Ukrainian association, was out of respect for Ukrainian refugees who had fled Russia’s invasion and who would also be in attendance.
She said it also anticipated the possibility that the event would be “hijacked” by proponents of the war.
“This was a necessary decision and I really know that it wasn’t easy for them to hear,” Ms Bettison told ABC Radio Adelaide’s Stacey Lee and Nikolai Beilharz.
“I had very strong advocacy from the Ukrainian association, to ask me to make sure that it was a safe space for our refugees from Ukraine.
“Hundreds of displaced Ukrainians will be at the event and … having the Russian associations perform would be incredibly distressing for them.
But the move has been slammed by some, including the organiser of an online petition to overturn it, who described it as “discrimination”.
“The Kalinka ensemble primarily consists of Australian-born children with Russian cultural heritage seeking to display their cultural heritage through performance,” the petition states.
“Unfortunately, the Minister [for] Multicultural Affairs of South Australia has denied us the opportunity to showcase our cultural roots.”
In a written statement, the Kalinka Russian Ensemble Association’s Parents Committee said they felt the “decision is in violation of fundamental legal principles and statutes of Australia”.
“The minister’s decision is discriminatory and contrary to the ethos of multiculturalism,” they said in the statement.
“It appears to have been influenced by lobbying from one ethnic group, which raises serious questions about fair treatment and representation of all ethnic groups.
“Deliberately choosing to support one culture over another is a form of discrimination that goes against the core principles of equality and inclusivity.”
The group said concerns about the impact on displaced Ukrainians attending the festival could have been addressed by scheduling performances by Kalinka and Ukrainian groups with appropriate time gaps.
“Similarly, the issue of potential political activism could have been handled through event rules and security measures, rather than singling out a cultural group,” the statement reads.
“Connecting the potential appearance of political activists to the innocent act of cultural performance is a misguided and unreasonable association.
“It’s essential to separate political affiliations from cultural expressions.”

But truckies wanting to go to work have their bank accounts frozen.
Likewise the bank accounts of anybody who sent them $10 to feed themselves.
The backdrop to that text I’ve quoted above was of rockets launching towards Isreal and/or Iron Dome interdiction fire.

“Unfortunately, I don’t have much hope for the hostages. “
You are right, they’ve already butchered the men, raped the women and girls, and probably already cut their throats. You see, that’s Islam, hate to break it to those who think it’s a “religion of peace”. This is what Israel has to deal with every single day, this is what Middle Eastern Christians also understand, and this is what the West forgotten, like everything else, and has allowed now into western countries. Do I think every Muslim is a murderer? No, but I regard the religion of Islam as a death cult.
I’ll repeat what I said earlier, that there is NO moral equivalence between Israel and the scum in Gaza. ZERO.
For four thousand years we Jews have experienced endless persecution, pogroms, massacres, discrimination, culminating in a genocide which virtually wiped us out, Just remember at the Wansee conference they accumulated data of Jews in every country, ready to exterminate. Hamas has long expressed the same sentiments of wiping out Jews across the planet.
NEVER AGAIN.
After going to synagogue last night, I have spent a lot of time thinking of what the rabbi said as he tried to calm and console us. He reminded us as to what has sustained the Jewish people for four thousand years, and that is the Torah, given to us by God, something we gifted our to the Christians. He said it is the most beautifully perfect template ever handed to mankind. If we live by Torah, we will be safe. But when we forsake Torah, evil happens, and we will be punished. I write this as I learned, before I went walking this morning, that there was a “rave for peace” on the Israel/Gaza border, which as I wrote earlier, clearly descended into a ‘rape for jihad’. So, young secular Israelis had a rave party on the holiest day in Judaism, the Sabbath and also yesterday was Shemini Atzeret. The utter desecration. I know someone, a Sydney Jew, who together with other men tried to pray in a square in Tel Aviv a few days ago, and were assaulted by secular Israelis, one of these assaulters was draped in a LGBTQI+ flag. I can’t describe my despair, my anger and my bewilderment that young Israelis would do this. But we know why they’re doing this, because of progressivism, wokeism, and affluence, combined with Soros and Biden money and malfeasance.
Well the good wife and myself have arrived in Dubai after a 14 hour flight from Melbourne (it’s 6.30am here in Dubai). Flew with Emirates, outstanding service on such a long flight.

We have 4 hours in Dubai before we catch our next flight to London – just 7 hours this time.

I’m not going link to it , but unfortunately I did see it.
The lifeless body of a young girl in her 20s lying face down in the back of a ute.
Her clothes appear to have been removed except her underwear and up-ended bra. It looks like she was raped. Her leg broken by all appearances. An animal is holding her hair and another is calling out the Akbar chant.
She’s German apparently. Shani Louk shouldn’t be forgotten.
The place needs to be razed.
Best wishes Wolfman, the Middle East is looking like a great place not to be in right now. And be careful in London too.
Nobody should be surprised about what is happening in London. The UK has fallen.
Back in May 2021, cars of Muslim males drove through the predominantly Jewish suburbs of North London exhorting, using loudspeakers, that they were “coming to rape Jewish women“.
I’m not aware of any subsequent arrests, of course though, in the UK of today, you will have the police on your doorstep and be arrested and charged if you post a transgender critical tweet, if you support the vandalism of Ulez cameras and so on. Just ask Caroline Farrow, Lozza Fox, Kellie-Jay Keen, Harry Miller and hundreds of other ordinary Brits who’ve had the police on their doorsteps for “thought crimes”. But threaten to rape Jewish women…nothing to see here.
They’re all in on it too.

No need to use them yet, but were Israel to announce they were going to nuke Tehran, Isfahan, Karaj, Ahvaz, Mashhad and Qom, in 24 hours, the chaos of civilians and government fleeing these cities will wreck Irans government beyond repair.
It may just be enough to create a regime changing movement because the Iranian people are over these nutters – only the threat of the religious police are keeping them in line even when water and food supplies in these cities are contaminated and expensive.
A threatened second strike can take in Mecca and Medina. That should get their attention.
I have had and have my differences with BoN, but I know whose side he’s on when it comes to Israel. I don’t doubt his support for the Jewish people for a nanosecond.
“This giant mountain of steaming excrement, an msnbc talking head, has placed the blame squarely on Israel.
I won’t link to the article. It is head-exploding vile. If anyone wants to see it, it as Breitbart.

Someone needs to try harder to keep up. Israel has declared war on Hamas.

Milton, nobody does Doublethink like the Left.
“Acts have consequences” is something they cannot understand.
The humanitarian solution is targeted strikes against the Iranian regime, the conquest of Gaza, the destruction there of Hamas, Hezbollah and Fatah etc, and resettlement in the West Bank for those who want it, not nuking millions, particularly where thousands are still hostage to the regime (Iran) or a newly friendly country (KSA).
Israel can do it again to the West Bank, Golan Heights and Sinai if necessary.

You are most likely correct. However, the Israeli government may just go with the policy of “Captured military and civilians are considered to have been killed or undergoing conditions worse than death.”, and just go ahead attack the weapons aimed at them.
Not a nice picture, but extreme situations require extreme solutions.
One thing I’ve found interesting about the Hamas attack on Israel is that I haven’t heard a peep out of the Palestinian Authority about it.
As the nominal government of “Palestine” one would have thought they would have fronted up to the microphones by now. Unless of course they are quite happy with the prospect of the troublesome Hamas faction being wiped out.
Curious though.
Cassie, sadly I think you are right about the hostages. I’m old enough to remember Munich.
Whether or not they are paraded will be a function of how bold they think they can be in the light of world condemnation. I imagine they will be disposed of discreetly now that the triumphalism has subsided slightly.
The triumph will be shortlived. They will have the “pleasure” of meeting the one they serve sooner rather than later. Sadly children will be caught up in it, but that is the cost of wickedness and war.
I wish I hadn’t look, but sometimes you have to, to see the true face of evil inhumanity.
The lady at St Mary’s prays for peace in Israel.
This is not the time for peace.
A better prayer of the faithful would have been to petition God for victory.

I get the impression that progressives are very fond of international law because it binds first world (I.e. guilty) nations more than others. They will see it binding Israel, but not Palestein, or even Iran.
International law is not created by democratically elected representatives. It is not done in the open. It is not done in consideration of a nation’s particular circumstances. It is a game currently run by progressives who see it as a way to impose their agenda on nations.
Muslims do not fit in anywhere even their own countries. They are worse than disease. The crazies are the ones that run the countries. Of course they are good Liars voters.
Reference the raid on “Eagles Nest”, the bombers that flew the missions that day were Lancasters, of numbers 1 and 5 Group.

Scroll down to 25 April 1945, Target-Wachenfeld.
My dad’s brother, was a Pilot, (RAAF), with 550 SQN RAF. He flew that mission also.
Many years ago, (in another life, it seems), I was a Public Servant with Dept Aviation.
When I joined the Dept, from Uni, every Assistant Director, (AD), was ex Military.
All bar one had served during WWII. The other one was ex CO of 3SQN, Mirages.
The Director was WGCDR K. M. Barclay DFC.
At one stage or another, he commanded 452, 453 and 457 SQN’s.
(All Aust Spitfire squadrons). My position had minor involvement with him and I always found him professional and courteous.
I have a book(let) on 453 SQN when they were still in Red Hill, UK.
One of the Pilots writes:
“We have a new CO, Kel Barclay from S.A. His idea of a good time, is to cross the channel and shoot up anything with a black cross on it!”
Every AD spoke in reverence of Kel Barclay and they ALL saw a lot of action,
eg Keith Collett 22 SQN, Beaufighters.
Lest we Forget.
Progressives like to make ignorant claims about International Law as if it was written to support their feelings.
Rather like they claim damned near anything they want, but are being denied, as a “Basic Yuman Right”.

This was the Tweet I mentioned. By Tweeter David Davos. Similar story but different location. A further post suggests witnessed by 2 people. No idea where Goodes lives but he might be helping out at polling booths.
“Adam Goodes abused a female No campaigner at the Randwick Town Hall pre poll on Thursday 5 October.
Goodes in an unprovoked attack called the woman a “racist” and that she was standing on his land and she needed to remove herself from stolen land”.

Here’s a thought. Intels around the world are strange, creepy organizations. What if Israeli intel knew it was coming and kept it from the government. It let it occur once and for all, allowing some leeway to break Hamas? Just pure speculation on my part.
In order to coordinate this massive attack, the phone chatter, etc., would have to have been huge. Neither Mossad nor the CIA knew about any of this and didn’t hear a single word.
Where are the Stupid Frigging SA Liberals?

Afternoon all.
Wowee on what’s going on in the middle east. Was at a pub yesterday where a few ex defence boys were around. They reckon seeing all the civi hostages likely mistreated, there’s going to be some serious retribution. Meh, Hamas aren’t even wearing uniforms so I am unperturbed what happens to them if they are caught alive.
As one Mid East vet said Israelis don’t muck around. Even if the kinetic action doesn’t take out leaders watch for safehouses vaporising at a hint said Hamas or Hezbollah member is around years into the future. In the short term they reckon a short sharp overwhelming counter offensive in Gaza & maybe the Golan Heights/Syria if needed…
Haven’t read too much of yesterdays commentary but looks like a serious intelligence failure to miss this.
That said, know it was discussed her to depth but the recent strategic review came up. Looks like the ALP has returned to fortress Australia, the boys were talking about these littoral groups and the fact they seem to be set up to stabilise neighbouring island states rather than say a Taiwan situation. They were saying pretty well much set up for Solomon Is, PNG & East Timor should they fall behind China if/when a conflict does come. Apparently 2 battalions are being downsized as well.
Hamas looked at the Ukraine War and seeing that the ‘West’ is distracted decided to start a war with Israel. It probably thinks that the US and its allies have depleted their military reserves so Israel’s ability to wage war is more limited. Also they feel that their weapons supply lines through Iran and others should not be too effected.
I wonder how proportionate Israel’s response will be?
At this point, anything less is failure.
I heard 5 and 7RAR are going to be re-integrated.
It’s a good point.
America had intelligence on Pearl Harbour and 9/11, but siloing of information and a lack of discernment made it useless; more so if any information is incomplete and seems not to warrant further investigation or being sent on to a superior, let alone slow-walking stuff that seems serious but a low likelihood.
Yep. The Israeli left appears to have made hay in the year or so that Bibi was off the scene.
Netanyahu has some serious security questions to answer from Israelis at home. Bluster won’t be enough.
Shani Louk, German. This hasn’t the same German ring to it as, say, would “Lieselotte Braunschweig”. Shani did have an Israeli passport.
This does not devalue her German citizenship, however likely means Germany (were it so inclined) won’t have grounds to declare “Hamas has killed & desecrated a German”
Yup KD, my dad being 7 RAR Viet vet and in the battalion when 5 & 7 initially linked. That I do know, the light fighters from Adelaide are being moved to Darwin.
Apparently the battalion doing the marine type role is downsizing. As well as apparently the one with the Helicopters.
The big winner is the tanks and water transport squadron apparently. Bit of an expansion going on with new kit.
If that’s what these boys say is true. Pub talk being all that.
