“I’m not an expert so how do I know if he is an expert? There’s a vicious circle to go nuts about.”
Relax Brother if you haven’t gone nuts already, likely you wont soon .
… it is the same for all of us…. Think about what you do know something about … then ask yourself why ?
Then if you have to rely on someone else’s expertise you need then to explain ” so how are you so sure?” ..it helps to be dealing with honest objective and an actual expert.
They can tell you …
There are certain things about which we can never be sure… my kink is propaganda. …

As far as I know second guessing Redemption is the snare … to think too hard … to over egg the custard….
Redemption is not some distant race run ..it is right here and now… and it doesnt even have to involve being supportive of those around you …. those brave enough to come within your range of fire … but of course and etc … sometimes you can be your own Saviour … lets face it .. it you are in a together crowd possibly the all have their …pearls on a string … sometimes that might make the most sense … but you gotta settle down enough to understand the questions and address them …

Partly tongue in cheek Mark. The problem with youtube and blogs is that often we have to trust the person’s assertions but I have to check their arguments and that takes time. If they fail a few times I’m done with ’em. I’m wary of people who express much confidence and little doubt.
I like Crick’s idea:
“At times I even persuade myself that I can glimpse some of the answers, but this is a common delusion experienced by anyone who dwells too long on a single problem.”

What is funny about that is his former protege Koch in 1998 made a bet with the Aus philosopher Chalmers that by 2023 year the mystery of consciousness would be solved. Koch lost that bet. I’m not even sure about Chalmer’s hard problem argument and I’m certain we don’t understand consciousness but on other hand it may admit to a trivial solution. IIT and GWT (theories about consciousness) are not even wrong.

3) Before the ottoman empire there was the Islamic mamluk sultanate of Egypt, Not a Palestinian state .
4)Before the Islamic mamluk sultanate of Egypt there was the ayyubid dynasty, Not a Palestinian state .Godfrey of bouillon conquered it in 1099.
5) Before the ayyubid dynasty there was the christian kingdom of Jerusalem, Not a Palestinian state .
6) Before the christian kingdom of Jerusalem there was the Fatimid caliphate, Not a Palestinian state .
7) Before the Fatimid caliphate there was the byzantine empire, Not a Palestinian state .
?? Before the byzantine empire there was the Roman empire, Not a Palestinian state .
9) Before the Roman empire there was the hasmonean dynasty, Not a Palestinian state .
10)Before the hasmonean dynasty there was the Seleucid empire,Not a Palestinian state .
11) Before the Seleucid empire there was the empire of Alexander the 3rd of Macedon, Not a Palestinian state .

This is absolutely correct. The losses are staggering. The fronts have barely moved. Ukraine however have breached the Dnipro. “It was just a feint!” carries on.
The idea that the front can hold forever with staggering losses, it is planned this way or eliminating Russian forces somehow benefits Russia is pure cope.
Now we’re going to get a lecture how F-16s are bad planes (LOL, literally the most successful modern multi role fighter plane) and how the joke Black Sea fleet (sunk by a far inferior force) somehow still exists.
In order to reunite Russia, Putin has turned Ukraine into a wasteland and demographically ruined the motherland of Russia proper. He has crippled the Russian economy and made actual reunification of a greater Russia unpalatable for generations. He’s no Peter the Great. He’s no statesman. He’s just like our worst politicians but with unconstrained power.
He’s failed in every objective he made out he had bar one, eliminating the Azov regiment for President Zelensky. RIM and Rusich will continue on of course. Russian Nazism is acceptable – what do you expect from a Hamas supporter?

As I and others said before October 14th it is structurally more difficult to fix an election here than in the US, and to hide the fix afterwards.
Our voter rolls are far tighter in terms of interstate address changes and relieving deceased persons registrations.
And compulsory voting makes massive voter dumps more easily detected. Imagine if the referendum turnout was, say, 12 million out of an enrolment of 17.6 million, and Yes trailed by 2,000,000 votes?
I am not saying it can’t and didn’t happen, but fixing a referendum is really difficult.
You basically have to fix the national vote and fix it in the right states.
The risk is far greater in a Reps election where the fixers target 5-6 marginal seats for vote fraud, as they did in Indi a few years ago.

Firstly, I don’t think that necessarily says 1.9 million people didn’t vote, although you wouldn’t think they would have stacks left to count.
A no-show of 10% doesn’t surprise me. It was definitely an emotive issue for some, but there was also a sizeable “couldn’t give a shit” cohort as well. Also, in their death throes, the Yessirs put it out there that the fine for not voting was only $20, in the hope that undecided voters (who would likely vote No if they weren’t sure) would stay home.
And the abstainers now have an irrefutable excuse which is dripping in Soshul ‘Sponsibility … “I woke up on the 14th with a sore throat and did a RAT test. It was positive for Covid so I stayed away from the polling booth.”
And the 2010 election was certainly perverted by Windsor and Oakeshott.
If I was going to execute that robbery, I wouldn’t have Oakeshott and the Old Lezzo driving the getaway car.
“Don’t forget claims to justice.”
Oh yes, raping Jewish women, burning alive Jews, beating old Jewish grandmothers with sticks, mutilating Jewish corpses, decapitating Jewish babies, are all essential tactics to their “claims to justice”.
The war in Ukraine is over. Russia won.
Everybody knows this – including Kirby. What’s happening now is that the military-industrial complex and the DNC are seeing out the balance of the Biden ‘administration’ before the loss is made official.
It will be made official when a Republican is elected President.
Yeah, no doubt they went against the wishes of their electorates if you examine Senate figures for booths in their electorate.
However, that wasn’t a manipulation of electoral rolls or AEC sanctioned cheating.
It was good old-fashioned vindictive pay-back politics on the part of the Old Lezzo, whilst Oakeshott thought the Liars presented the best lifetime meal-ticket opportunities.
It’s perverse.
Israelis are ” colonisers” to the modern left.

“MB” refuses to answer any questions about “claims to justice” and has some shitty tells like 200 push ups and Random Caps. Of course it could be skin suit Sep/Ed/Grigs mucking about too. “MB” hasn’t taken some rather tasty bait but admits to being medicated for mental illness.

Israelis are ” colonisers” to the modern left.
yes and I can remember back in the days when I watched the ABC they were characterizing the foundation of Israel as a revolt against British colonialism. I guess the narrative changes or the orders from the Columbia skool of germalism do.
That depends on what Russia’s objectives were.
I’d call it a stalemate.
At best, and being charitable, Russia is scoring a Pyrrhic victory.
They have ” won” to such an extent it will be 20 years before they could score a similar ” victory”
Ukraine has inflicted losses out of all proportion to what anyone expected, but have almost wrecked their nation as a going concern for anything more than cheap Euro hookers and demographic replacement.
The Left trying to fit history into its Procrustean bed of dogma again.
Over 60% of Israelis are descended from Middle Eastern & North African Jews whose situation in their Arab majority countries of origin (and Iran) was always precarious, to say the least, including pogroms, expulsions and laws which prevented them from fully participating in society.
Post-1948, the UNHCR twice declared these people to be refugees according to international law.
Unlike today’s country shoppers, they fled to the nearest country of refuge, Israel.

This ugly history gives rise to the question of the source of Arab anti-semitism, which an Egyptian Arab intellectual who lives in the West recently described (critically) as the pillar of Arab identity, since it pre-dates the establishment of the modern state of Israel.
It’s a mystery…

And that is fraud at the electoral roll level, not the count.
The only other type of fraud I am familiar with is the registration of fake parties such as the “Liberals for Trees” whose preferences were the difference between Justine
Elliotidiot taking Richmond (Tweed Heads & Murwillumbah) off the SFLs many many years ago. The AEC has made this type of fraud harder, but not impossible, by upping the deposit and signature count requirements.Whether or not the the 3000 senate ballots going missing in WA was fraud I will leave to the conspiracy theorists.
Losing vast swathes of your nation forever isn’t a stalemate.
The Ukrainians can’t get out because the CIA and BlackRock now own their country. So they’re given just enough ordnance to skirmish pointlessly until Joe Biden is out of the picture. This is killing tens of thousands of men.
Which brings us to the latest neocon ShamWow: the Ukraine-Israel Bundle.
But no. If you want a Hamas analogy in Ukraine, it would be Kiev’s exterminationism in Donbas from 2014 – the tip of the spear being a motley ensemble of Nazi ‘battalions.’
Israel is not Ukraine.
As for Russia – foolishly re-demonised for 20 years by Langley loonies but also the same Orthodox sourpuss it always was – it has reverted to the worst of its form. This showcases why Putin has never been great and never will be. He cannot build the bridge that needs building between East and West. Being incited to a border war doesn’t mean there is strategic justification of any kind in making common cause with communist Celestials and Mohammedans against Israel.
Cameron Miller has an article about Voice defeat in the Australian.
Is he trying to do a Mocker style article or is he serious?
The sovereign reigns from her tower!
The liege!

No noblesse oblige.
I was referring to the military situation.
Politically, as with most wars, no one “wins.”
The main reason for that is that Putin doesn’t give a stuff about Russia or Russians, except as the source of the trillions of dollars he has stolen from the Russian treasury.
Putin is far more corrupt than Joe Biden.

$20 Fine for not voting?
Yep! On the last day of Pre Polling with the queue over an hour long, 3 “Tradies” turned up and walked along the line asking how long it was going to take to reach the booth – then they “decided” that as the fine was “only $20” they wouldn’t waste their time voting, just pay the fine and they laughingly walked away.
Then again on polling day, at another booth, the “Yes” campaigners were ‘chatting’ amongst themselves about the fine being just $20.
This Referendum has been an ‘eye opening’ experience.
Psst, wanna buy a 155mm artillery round?

Fascinating how the King of the Battlefield is again the King of the Battlefield in the 21stC. Maybe battlefield lasers will dethrone him again.
Clearly Tartarian craftsmanship, Western Civilisation simply not capable of doing anything really, stop relying on the MSM!
I’d say he cares about his people about as much as Zelensky cares about his.
The same Zelensky named in the Pandora papers as a foreign money launderer.
Too close to call.
Professor Thomas Sowell’s new book ‘Social Justice Fallacies‘ appears another cracking read if the link is anything to judge by. This is a recent Hoover Institute interview with the Prof. regarding the new book (which is about number 40 I think?).
Rosie,
I had exactly the same thought about that writing desk. 😀
Magnificent piece though.
The Palestinian narrative on Twitter is that Israel is populated by European Jews who they, with great kindness, allowed to move there after WWII, they then abused Palestinian hospitality and stole their land.
Never mentioned are the approximately one million Jews lucky to be expelled (many were murdered) from Arab countries after the humiliating 1948 loss, usually with just the clothes on their backs.
No intergenerational status as UN recognised refugees though.
I remember once asking why Israeli Jews just didn’t buy West Bank properties and the response was, any willing sellers know they will be murdered if they dare to sell to Jews.
Prof. Sowell re government:
The Chook is not for turning. Queensland is not a rotisserie.
Putin is far more corrupt than Joe Biden.
Too close to call.
I’m not sure how anyone, let alone in the sthn hemisphere, can claim to know. My feeling is Putin is somewhat pro Russian while the old perv will and does sell out his country at the drop of a hat.
Geez you’re funny Bear.
For any Cats at home on such a windy day today, World Movies is showing Charlie Chaplin’s “The Great Dictator” at 3pm. Interesting choice at this time, no?
I have never seen it in full, will take the opportunity.
Exactly, it’s always no skin on the game when you can make laws that impinge personal freedom and spray other people’s money around.
And even if, for example, a Green Labor type has to fork out for an Aboriginal Heritage ‘survey’ I’m sure there are mate’s rates, not the $200,000 minimum Melbourne based Aboriginal Corporation’s charge country suckers.
Not claiming that Putin is not corrupt btw
Between no cause pre- polling, no cause postal the AEC continues to weaken the protection (more imagined than actual) in the Australian electoral system. We are a long way from US style abuses but all trends are moving in the wrong direction.

The true “colonisers” of the 21stC are the Third Worlders moving to the advanced West, and trying to impose their cultures there, assisted by the Quislings of multiculturalism.
You got that right hon
Stewart says he thought No voters were not convinced that a Voice to Parliament was the right model to address systemic disadvantage.
“They have not voted No because they’re racist. I categorically reject that. They have voted No because I think there’s a better pathway than constitutional enshrinement.”
Who’s to blame when our political class invites them to do so?
Constitutional enshrinement was all about placing the Aboriginal Industry outside Parliament and ensuring it couldn’t get ATSICed. It was rightly rejected.
That and that there would never be another Intervention.
In a democracy you would suggest the voters. I’m not sure that is actually the case though.
Putin’s mistake was not getting himself crowned as Tsar ten years ago.
The Tsar owned everything anyway, so the corruption question goes away.
It may be the succession problem, as his official kids are both daughters who’re both sciency types of people. If he’d had a formidable son maybe he could’ve made such a move stick. Succession issues have laid waste to many a dynasty.
530 000 this year. Madness! Nobody voted for this.

For any Cats at home on such a windy day today, World Movies is showing Charlie Chaplin’s “The Great Dictator” at 3pm. Interesting choice at this time, no?
I have never seen it in full, will take the opportunity.
It was also broadcast earlier this morning. A very clever film taking the piss out of Adolf and Mussolini to a certain extent. The Jews obviously have a big part to play in the film. Yes, an interesting choice of film at this time, however, SBS has shown the film quite a few times over the years.
Coming soon to a suburb near you. Oh wait, it’s already here in Lakemba and on the steps of the Opera House and in the Sydney CBD.
Our “elected representatives in Australia are beyond a disgrace in their supine complicity.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12686125/Mob-Dagestan-Airport-Jewish-passengers-flight-Israel-incident-Russian-republic.html
A huge mob today stormed Dagestan’s main airport looking for Israeli citizens following reports that a plane was arriving from the country.
Hundreds of protestors stormed the Makhachkala airport in the Russian republic to protest the landing of a Red Wings airliner coming from Tel Aviv, Russian news agencies and social media reported.
The protesters, some carrying Palestinian flags, broke through doors in the terminal, with some running onto the runway while others broke barriers, aiming to check the cars leaving the airport, according to videos posted online.
The Red Wings flight was reportedly forced to divert from the airport following the presence of the mob and landed at a different destination, according to Israeli television network Channel 12.
However, riots had also broken out there too, with passengers told to stay in their seats while riot police were called in to protect them, the broadcaster added.
Many people in the crowd that stormed the Makhachkala airport were reportedly chanting ‘Allahu Akbar’ while others were shouting antisemitic slogans, according to Russian news agencies.

I’m still seething over Betts’s smart arsed ‘good try’ comment to Matt Canavan. iirc Betts is an ex punk rocker imported by Kennett to ‘reform’ the Met in Melbourne. Split it into Hillside Trains and Bayside Trains. National Express got the ‘franchise’ to run Bayside (and V/Line) but ran away. Decamped to NSW for a while-during the O’Barrell-Parrot era. Supposed to be some kind of transport eggspurt. In what capacity I wonder?
The intent was to create a new aristocracy.
Estimated Putin net worth $200 billion.
Also, could you link the accusation of Zelensky’s money laundering.
A while ago, we had Dover suggest Putin had cleaned up the oligarch corruption. Do you agree with that?

Also among the anti-Israel protesters are Aboriginal race-mongers such as Senator Lidia Thorpe, who wore a Palestinian scarf in parliament when she likened white Australia to Israel as an ‘illegal occupier”.
There it is in plain sight.
The bullet we dodged.
Exactly
Is our PM so stupid he really thought it was all about listening to a bunch of people with a new and cunning plan to “Close the Gap” by giving us advice? Years of failure and mountains of funds haven’t done it because there is no responsibility or accountibility placed or expected from the recipients of our largesse.
A Modest proposal .. what utter patronising BS
Or is our PM more cunning and clever than we ever imagined and knew he was handing over the destruction of our country and society?
More likely it is as many say, he didn’t want a bipartisan approach to this because it was a be a Labor victory, his victory, his place in the Labor firmament, along with Goeff who started all of this disaster with his self determination policies. Look how well they have worked here and also PNG, another victim of Labor egos.
Illegal occupiers indeed, but clearly we need to be awake constantly to this or the left will just hand it all over because that’s how they think things are solved, by equality and diversity and making sure everyone, except your ideological enemies, is happy.
We will never Close the Gap, because the very people who could do that, are not interested as it means hard work, and responsibility. That’s not in their hunter gatherer culture and maybe that’s harsh but it is a fact they eventually have to face. It’s a tool to be used against us forever as if it is our fault, it’s not.
Same with Reconcilliation, there is no effort whatsoever in this regard, it is just another complaint in the big book of whining about Australia.
A major problem for all of us is the financial accountibility and knowledge dodging now going on.
We need to find out where the money has gone, who to and did it work or not, not just continue pouring money down the drain so precious egos are not hurt.
We need a Royal Commission into child protection, for ALL Australian Children and not some half arsed study of a few potemkin “prepared for the event” sites.
We cannot go on allowing children in Australia to be at risk, regardless of cultural mores, bruised egos or worrying about being accused of racism.
We pander far too much to the hurt feelings industry, we have to get hard nosed and push back, push back hard too.
Prof. Thomas Sowell:
Albanese 6 months out from the last election:
‘Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese has indicated Labor won’t back the government’s plans to take on 160,000 new migrants each year.’
Instead, he promised a multi-billion dollar investment in upskilling Australian workers.
Lying turd.

I have no comment on this, except to say what a sh*t mess is looming..
Iran-Russia set a western trap in Palestine
The only country that could possibly distract the west from Ukraine is Israel. But the US and its allies are walking into an existential trap if they think a West Asian victory will be more easily won than a European one.
Prof. Sowell:
Blackrock? Blackrock as in the fund management firm?
Blackrock is a dickhead organisation but running Ukraine? What’s in it for them?
Israel has already won. Several major Hamas honchos are dead.
Where is, or what’s the trap makka?
Read it JC.
Credence isn’t veracity. Whether or not something is true will have nothing to do with whether the its reported in the mainstream press or on Twitter. Credence will be established by their reliability over time.
Of course you can prevent leaks in the short term. The reports of serious injuries where sourced from Telegram and then repeated on Twitter. If they are right or wrong we’ll find out in the coming weeks or months just as we did on other occasions.
There are photos on Twitter/ Telegram of larges fires and attacks at multiple US bases in Syria and Iraq. They’re not hard to find.
It’s certainly possible but why imagine that their position is always optimal? It is just common sense that there are real strains on the armaments and munitions side currently and counting on them having a secret stash is reckless.
Why would China need to protect those sea lanes if it simply remained neutral? Russia gains from any disruption of oil supply from the ME without doing anything because its stock becomes even more valuable and the sanctions regime even less sustainable.
How about redistributing them all to the other five states?

I am loving Tony Moclair on 3AW.
A couple of weeks ago (as a fill-in host) he described the plan for limiting flights to four per lifetime as “a nut-job plan put forward by a dangerous religious sect”.
Today is his first day as permanent afternoon host.
Within five minutes he described green-left characterisation of landlords as “profiteering” as “having a very Soviet feel to it, and then called the State Government housing policies as “Socialist”.
Go you good thing!
For certain meanings of several.

Our political caste are the Quislings, and the compulsory preferential voting system, combined with the limits on member influence on pre-selection, make them effectively unremovable.
