qldoilspill.jpg image Take a good PATHETIC look at yourself, Australia yarra, Monday, Jul 6 2009, 12:08am
The cowering, CRINGING, cultural imprint that identifies Australia/ns today probably found its genesis in the brow-beaten, downtrodden, ‘subjected’ Anglo convicts forced onto this off-shore continental jail in the very dim past. The ‘free’ administrative officials required to govern and regulate the oppressed convicts and early settlement found solace in their very British identities -- the ruling elite of the time were constantly at pains to identify with the distant Imperial Crown!

masonic.jpg image Is Lucifer a racist? Go South young man, go South! Chris McGreal via krill, Saturday, Jul 4 2009, 11:11pm
Occasionally, I shake hands with a Mason and detect that tell-tale grip, thumb on first ‘fuck-knuckle;’ I choose not to respond though I could. Boaz! And for all those racists ‘on the square’ this piece is dedicated to a failing quasi-Jewish, Lucifer-honouring, not so secret, organisation that once ruled most of the world. Today it is a shadow of its former self; however, it struggles to maintain some of those ol’ fashion racist and elitist values. Ed. (story and 1 image)

We announced the death of laissez-faire capitalism when that system ingloriously failed – yes, Virginia, regardless of how they dress up the free market corpse, it’s DEAD! So too we must join the voices heralding the success (and failures) of the first REAL cyber war, the one currently being waged in IRAN -- for the benefit of those that live in wombat burrows!

text Home of the Lobbyist, Land of the Corporation talya, Tuesday, Jun 23 2009, 9:44pm
Large Transnationals and other Corporations have ruled western democracies for decades. Amounts spent Lobbying major political parties by the world's largest Corporations are listed below and what a revealing picture these lists make!

The bottom line; western democracies have been PURCHASED by interests that only have one over-riding, driving principle, PROFIT -- at any cost to YOU or the Environment!

'Government of the Corporations by the Corporations FOR the Corporations' -- that is the hard, cruel REALITY of today, sheeple!

Without any evidence, many U.S. politicians and “Iran experts” have dismissed Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s re-election Friday, with 62.6 percent of the vote, as fraud.

text John Faulkner accepts Defence portfolio but is he right man for the job? Kingfisher, Thursday, Jun 4 2009, 11:13pm
Perhaps a chance for REAL INDEPENDENT LABOR POLICIES in our dealings with allies or will Faulky adopt the new SERVILE, COWARDLY, LACKEY position made infamous by shameless cowards, John Howard, Kevin Rudd and ‘knee walking’ Stephen Smith (pewk!) It’s not too difficult to be a good ally and avoid being a slave; Bob Hawke once remarked that ‘good friends and allies would at times have different views, priorities, opinions AND policies!' It’s only natural when two INDEPENDENT parties work together. Did you hear that, Howard, you unspeakable, GROVELLING piece of rodent excrement?

text Swine Flu and draconian social bio-management policies finch, Friday, May 29 2009, 11:29pm
Australia, in its role as a test site for the broader western world, is currently undergoing two major assaults on traditional freedoms – freedom of movement and association [now] threatened by swine flu bio-management policies; and freedom to access all available information via the internet. I need not remind readers whose interests are best served by these new laws/policies – not those of the democratic majority by any stretch of the Orwellian imagination! (story and 1 comment)

In December of ’04 a small group of poets, philosophers, linguists, historians, meditation/yoga experts, mathematicians and computer hackers, came together to work on a revolutionary new project. The radical nature of the project attracted sneers and condemnation from many at the time. Nevertheless, it was eventually approved, funded and given external assistance whenever the group required.

9obama.jpg image Obama: the Smiling Assassin budgie, Tuesday, May 19 2009, 11:14pm
After receiving endorsements from Cheney, Powell, Rice, Kissinger and numerous other AMERICAN EXTREMISTS, TERRORISTS and WAR CRIMINALS it is hardly surprising Obama is what he IS; a lying, despicable fraud and expeditor of a status quo that was set in motion long before even Bill Clinton’s Balkan invasion and deregulation of the financial/banking sectors – the reader will note that today’s US militarism and financial catastrophes are the result of Clinton’s deregulation policies and his attack on a sovereign Balkan nation -- notwithstanding America has not yet seen a retaliatory response from the persecuted Serbs.

text Who Rules America? Paul Craig Roberts via reed, Thursday, May 14 2009, 8:13pm
What do you suppose it is like to be elected president of the United States only to find that your power is restricted to the service of powerful interest groups?

A president who does a good job for the ruling interest groups is paid off with remunerative corporate directorships, outrageous speaking fees, and a lucrative book contract. If he is young when he assumes office, like Bill Clinton and Obama, it means a long life of luxurious leisure.

text Be careful what you wish for, Kevin Rudd! peptide, Wednesday, May 13 2009, 11:34am
It wasn’t too long ago a disillusioned Australian nation elected a new leader with the hope the new leader would represent the electorate NOT the elites the previous PM served! However, it soon became apparent the new leader, Kevin 07, was just another servile lackey walking in the subservient footsteps of the previous leader, John Howard. The Australian population was sorely disappointed, to say the least. (story and 1 comment)
