As the dawn light glinted off the fixed bayonets, the prison doors opened and the rioters came out with their hands in the air.

I remember that example, given on a promotion course I was on.

The first three rounds in each magazine were blank, the rest were live. Not a shot was fired, live or blank, and some of the most hardened criminals in Canada had their hands in the air, begging to surrender.

I am not on the “side of either” belligerent … in this ME conflict .. just wanting to look at the bigger picture .. Do Laws of War mean nothing?

It would seem they do not mean a bluddee thing.
7th October 2023: Breaches amounting in number to 1400 + 250 + lots more examples of clear & deliberate breaches of laws of war.

As China Backs Hamas, Israel Finds Out Who Its Friends Aren’t

Communist China, together with Russia, was one of the first countries to recognise Palestine’s self-declared statehood in 1988.

What we’re seeing presently is the re-opening of political fault lines merely papered over by globalisation for a few decades.

Excellent work. He certainly reminds us of the cocksuckerism associated with the Labor Party and the Greens.

I also noticed from the hostage taking video that Hamas have subcontracted their dirty deeds to Africa.

I noticed that the day after the attacks when the recordings were put online by Hamas. There were quite a large number of blacks among the usual Arabs which means they were paid well enough to leave their own massacre zones in central Africa.

‘Arrogance’: Chalmers slammed for announcement on ‘great global warming crusade’

What was the comment Lizzie? Can’t recall at this time

Rita Panahi:

After 18 months of gallivanting around the world and talking endlessly about his toxic Voice proposal, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has decided to focus on the cost of living crisis.

This belated awakening to the single biggest issue in the country has only come about after the Voice was emphatically rejected in every state and territory, except the ACT, and Airbus Albo’s popularity took a hit.

Post-referendum polling shows that support for Labor, their unofficial coalition partner the Greens, and the prime minister is heading south while the Coalition and other centre-Right parties are seeing greater support.

Even the latest Left-leaning Essential poll, courtesy of the Guardian, demonstrates the shift in the national mood.

The data this week shows Labor’s primary vote falling further from 33 to 32 per cent, while the Greens fell from 14 to 10 per cent.

Meanwhile, the Coalition’s primary vote went up from 32 to 34 per cent, with One Nation, United Australia and other minor parties also seeing an increase in support.

Also interesting is the surge in support from female voters who now prefer the Coalition over Labor in both primary (34 to 29 per cent) and two-party-preferred (47 to 45 per cent).

Among men the parties are tied on the primary vote and Labor are ahead on a two-party preferred basis.

Essential also measured the national mood and found only one in three Australians believes the country is heading in the right direction, with about half saying we are on the wrong track and 18 per cent unsure.

The data is in line with polling by Roy Morgan last week showing primary support for Labor down 3 points to 32 per cent and support for the Coalition rising to 36 per cent.

The Coalition leads Labor 50.5 to 49.5 on a two-party preferred basis.

And, again there was a clear majority of 53.5 per cent saying the country is heading in the wrong direction, with only one in three saying we are on the right track.

We are likely to see a different prime minister in the coming months as he works to convince Australians he understands and shares their concerns for the country.

At a speech at The Australian-Melbourne Institute Economic and Social Outlook conference on Thursday, the prime minister vowed to make cost of living his top priority.

“We know a stronger budget position serves as an important buffer against international shocks and it helps put downward pressure on inflation,’’ he said.

But we are outsourcing our destiny including our energy security.

The push for unreliable, expensive renewable energy is not only seeing costs soar for businesses and households alike but we are becoming increasingly dependent on supply chains largely controlled by China.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers also spoke at the conference warning that we cannot meet our bold emission targets without greater intervention from governments.

“Without more decisive ­action, across all levels of government, working with investors, industry and communities, the energy transition could fall short of what the country needs,” Chalmers said.

Translation: these dud projects are not commercially viable and more of your hard-earned tax dollars will go into propping them up and enriching the .01 per cent.

It’s time the Coalition recognised the enormous error it made, under Scott Morrison’s leadership, to embrace net zero. They signed up to the same economy-destroying lunacy offered by their opposition.

One of the many lessons from the Voice debate is that Australians deserve a true contest of ideas and the Coalition will only prevail when they clearly articulate their position and differentiate their policies from Labor and the Greens.

It’s a point former prime minister Tony Abbott emphasised in a speech on Wednesday telling a London audience that when energy and climate policy had been a big election focus, the electorate always opted for their hip pocket

“On every occasion, when the Australian public have been asked to choose between reducing emissions and protecting their cost of living, they’ve put their cost of living first,” Mr Abbott said.

“Now, at the last election, energy wasn’t an issue. Both sides were committed to net-zero.”

In recent months I have spoken to a number of senior shadow ministers and Liberal/National MPs, on and off the record, and the message is clear; the Coalition must abandon its net zero pledge.

If the Coalition did dump any pretence of net zero policy, it wins the next election handily. Let’s see.

The prime suspect in the triple-death mushroom poisoning case has been charged with three counts of murder and five of attempted murder after being dramatically arrested at her home on Thursday.

Hmmm.
That is interesting.
I was expecting mudder x 3 and attempted mudder x 1.
Does this suggest she’s had an unsuccessful attempt previously?

He just doesn’t get it and keeps at these mad schemes to become a Labor god, to be up there with Goeff and Hawke, oh and Rudd/Gillard.

The rate he is tracking billie, Albo isn’t fit to wipe Gillard’s arse. A true mediocrity.

Shit a brick. Andrew Koubaridis in the Hun on a most terrifying development:

Hamas is using a $2.8 billion fortune – some of it laundered by real estate agents and Middle East companies – to finance their terror campaign, a former Mossad agent has revealed.

Hundreds of millions of dollars are flowing to the leaders of Hamas through the companies based in Qatar, Turkey, Emirates and Sudan, former security agent Uzi Shaya said.

“Hamas may look like a very small terror organisation but their funding network is widespread,” Mr Shaya told The Sun.

“A significant portion of their budget stays with the heads of Hamas, their terrorists and all their families”.

Additional cash – also stretching into the hundreds of millions – is coming directly from Iran, on top of what Hamas would have collected through taxation, extortion, and border control.

Days after the October 7 attack where Hamas terrorists broke through the security border fence and slaughtered 1400 people, Israeli police revealed they had located and frozen accounts linked to Hamas that sought “to solicit donations on social networks” via Binance, the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange.

The Israeli Government accused Mousa Abu Marzouk, a senior Hamas figure, of being worth billions of dollars.

“Hamas spends most of its money on building tunnels and terrorism. The rest lines [Marzouk’s] and his friends’ pockets,” a post on the official government X account said.

“His net worth is 3 BILLION dollars. Wonder why there’s a humanitarian crisis in Gaza?”.

The terror group’s former Chairman Khaled Mashal is believed to be worth an estimated $5 billion with Arab Media listing his extensive portfolio including banks in Egypt and real estate projects in the Arabian Gulf countries, while himself living in Qatar.

And according to the BBC, the current head of the Hamas political bureau Ismail Haniyeh – who is also living in Qatar – is said to be worth $5 million.

The BBC reported Haniyeh used his wealth and connections to acquire a Turkish passport which he has used to amass extensive property portfolio – many of which are in the names of the his 13 children. He is said to have recently bought 27,000 square feet of land along the Gaza beachside for $4 million.

Other Hamas chiefs estimated to be worth millions include Yahya Sinwar, the terrorist groups boss in Gaz, and Mohammed Deif, head of the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, with a fortune estimated at $5 million. Both men have been named as the Israel Defense Force’s prized targets.

A US State Department report published last year revealed Hamas terrorists were known to pass cash through the labyrinth of tunnels underneath Gaza and used cryptocurrencies to bypass international sanctions.

Analysts with the Association of Certified Financial Crime Specialists – a network of experts investigating financial crime – found terror groups such as Hamas were using donations from expatriates, which were funnelled through crypto currencies.

It found there were noticeable spikes in fundraising following attacks involving Hamas, who often use charities as cover – often asking for donations to help innocent civilians but pocket the funds themselves.

Hamas terror chief Ismail Haniyeh was recently seen celebrating the shock attack that killed 1,400 mainly Israeli civilians and triggered the ongoing war, by smiling and praying in a an airconditioned office with large televisions beaming news of the atrocities unleashed by Hamas.

And the Wong Chap (I know Top Ender is watching lol) saw fit to give $25 million to these khunts. FMD

Does this suggest she’s had an unsuccessful attempt previously

Three prior separate attempts at her ex.
Not clear but I think plus one attempted for Ian Wilkinson and one attempted for her ex who didn’t turn up on the day.

Gaza tiktok man sure does get around…

Looks like he’s posing with a dead hamas fighter.
I saw a couple of pre 7 October youtubes of his, not exactly a huge following, he’s clearly very keen on maximising his social exposure within the islamic world.
Whatever it takes.

The “lower classes” have not lost their moral clarity.

The trio was part of a group of people who armed themselves with weapons including axes, knives, machetes, nulla nullas and iron bars before travelling to an address where Mr Presley was at the time.

Didn’t it emerge during the trial of Constable Rolfe that Aboriginal men, in those Third World sh!tholes like to carry weapons, to show their women how macho they are?

she was trying for equivalence. What the stupid moll would never grasp is, Jews would NEVER do that sort of thing.

Have taken the opportunity to watch the segment.

Pro-Palestine factions split at WA ALP conference

Rival factions of the West Australian Labor Party are locked in debate over a proposed motion to condemn violence in Gaza, ahead of a potentially heated state conference this weekend.

The Left faction of the party, which was split over the elevation of Roger Cook as WA Premier in July, is weighing how to make a public statement against the fighting and in favour of refugees at the event. The ongoing conflict is a particularly fraught issue for Labor, given the deep divisions within the party over Israel and Palestine.

One Labor source with knowledge of the discussions between the party’s Left and Right factions said nailing down a set of words that were acceptable to all sides of the debate was proving difficult.

The source said there was recognition by both factions of the need to tread carefully and avoid making a statement that was “too provocative”.

“There are some passionate people and there are some cooler heads and they’re all together on this,” the source said.

The vocally pro-Palestine Sue Lines – the party’s most senior senator for WA – is not taking part in the talks and will skip the state conference altogether, instead travelling to Canberra ahead of the resumption of parliament.

Fremantle MP Josh Wilson, who is a member of the Parliamentary Friends of Palestine group of which Anthony Albanese was a founding member, will also be ­absent as he is returning from a delegation to the US.

He delivered a speech in parliament last month urging an end to violence and a return to peace, and expressing his sympathy for both the Israeli and Palestinian people.

No formal motion on the matter has been submitted ahead of the conference, but motions can be moved from the floor, and the party’s Left, home to some of the most passionate pro-Palestine voices, could use its majority numbers to push through any motion.

Fight you useless b@st@rds, fight. I hate peace!

US Marine Corps Officer Scott Ritter

He claims special expertise, on the basis he “understands” Israelis & has spent lotsa time there, etc etc. Because of his experience he knows Israelis are two-faced hotheads, etc etc.

By that yardstick Palestinians/Hamas would be downright unhinged spinning tops whirring at 11,000 rpm.

Ritter seems to think Palestinians/Arabs are the calm, rational, sane voices of reason in this.
If he actually believes that, the bloke needs locking up again, possible with the addition of medication & a straighjacket.
