Australia's Border Force fails

Australia’s Border Force has failed in its stated purpose of keeping Australia’s borders secure. Following on from allowing Coronavirus - infected passenger from travelling around the country after disembarking in Sydney from the cruise ship Ruby Princess. Hey have allowed a Middle East livestock carrier to dock at Fremantle. 27 crew members were allowed off the Al Kuwait even though six of the 48 crew tested positive to COVID-19. Border Force, under Peter Dutton’s control seems unable to control our borders. Whatever happened to the mantra ‘Stop The Boats’.

The stupidity of war

Image
People throughout the world are letting the panic surrounding the COVID19 virus and our politicians send us all into a tailspin from which we may never recover. What is clear, is that the longer we keep ourselves locked up, the less likely economies are to recover. In this scenario it seems utter stupidity to talk of war (Cold or otherwise). With a belligerent Donald Trump in Washington, it will need cool heads in Beijing and Moscow to keep the world from rushing headlong into catastrophe. Pentagon Generals are rather like Lemmings.One of thwe only alternatices will be a currency war, with the US slashing the value of its dollar to manipulate the market. The sad facts are that US strategists may see war as the only way out of their economic malaise and they may urge Trump to push the button. It’s the last thing the world needs now with already shattered economies struggling to service their populations. But there is a no shortage of stupidity amongst our politicians.

Directed Energy weapons

The United States navy has tested its first directed energy laser weapon, a Technology Maturation Laser Weapon System Demonstrator which is expected to match Russian technology already in service. Lockheed Martin is the main US armaments maker to develop electromagnetic energy weapons. the U K's BAE Systems has also been at work but Russia developed its key lasaer weapons during the Cold War and is beleived to be at least five years ahead in its capabilities. While Ronald Regan and the Pentagon were grand-standing about a 'star Wars' missile system. Russia's military machine was getting on with the job.

It's the economy stupid!. Gullible leaders hand control to global bankers

Many governments around the world are still fixated on growing their economies by borrowing money. Australia owes at least $1.6 billion and the US national debt is an incredible $23 trillion and still growing. It really is La La land created by global bankers who know how to manipulate world leaders into falling for their scams. As a result, national debts will never be repaid. The three card trick is to monetize the debt at negative interest rates. printing money, or quantitative easing helps the illusion of winding down reinvestment, but it isn't real – just different books of accounts with enough zeros to make heads spin. Negative interest rates will force people to pull savings from banks. Everyone will stop buying and hoard cash, forcing economies to a halt. These global bankers want governments to blindly keep spending their way into bankruptcy The coronavirus pandemic has furthered their agenda – Bankrupt central governments and take over all financial control.

Govt should have sacked this bureaucrat

At last a senior Department of Foreign Affairs bureaucrat Dr Julie Delforce has resigned after it was revealed that she had not disclosed her links to an anti-farming website set up by her family u to discredit farmers. Some argue she should have been sacked immediately rather than continuing for months to draw her huge salary. Dr Delforce was a senior sector specialist in DFAT's Agricultural Development and Food Security section. She is the mother of Chris Delforce who founded the vegan activist Aussie Farms website which published the addresses of thousands of Australian farms and abattoirs,

Australia needs to cancel US fighter jet

If US President Donald Trump meddles with contracts to buy F35 Joint Strike Fighter aircraft, Australia should immediately cancel its order. The Australian Government placed orders for the plane on the basis that a significant proportion of work would be undertaken in Australia. He now says he is thinking of changing arrangements so that all work on the plane is carried out in the US. In the past he has ranted about the exhorbitant cost of the F35 which should have sent a clear message to the Australian Government that it should not waste taxpayers money on a dog of a plane that is unable to meet it design performance or its costings. His earlier comments came shortly after the 100th F35 rolled off the Lockheed Martin production line. There were huge misgivings about cost overruns and the jet's lack of performance. Australia is committed to pay $20 billion for 72 of the planes. The F35 will be almost useless as an addition to Australia's air defence and attack capabilitie...

New domestic spying laws for ASIO

The Australian Government is drafting legislation which will limit the rights of citizens. Legislation introduced by Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton will allow the spy agency ASIO to question children as young as 14 without supervision and will make it easier to install tracking devices in a person's bag or car without approval. Using the COVID19 pandemic as an excuse, Dutton is trying to ram through wide powers to let ASIO detain and question kids as young as 14, track ereyone’s movements without oversight and prevent people from having a lawyer present when being questioned'. Dutton and his department goons could investigate journalists and any activists on trumped up allegations of espionage . Is it any wonder that many Australians refuse to install the so-called Covid Safe app on their smart phones. No one trusts the Government to restrict access to tracking information.

Time to change Australian politics

Long-term repercusions of the COVID19 pandemic and the associated monstrous debt are certain to lead to calls for changes in our system of Government. Faced with the prospect of generational debt and a strong feeling that we are over-governed, dsrastiuc cuts need to be made to the cost of Government along with fundamental change to our constitution. A large part of the problem will be to abolish the extravagance of a Federal Parliament with all the costs associated with duplicating Ministers and Departments when each State already has working bureaucracies in place the States are responsible for education, health and a large part of the justice system. Let COAG run the country., The Council of Australian Governments has the expertise and the existing departmental bureaucracy to take on all roles – saving taxpayers billions of dollars every year.

US acknowledges COVID19 is a manufactured virus

Claims by US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, that COVID19 originated in a laboratory in Wuhan, China are nothing new. More than three months ago, a top US legal expert, Dr. Francis Boyle, who drafted the Biological Weapons Act has acknowledged that the 2019 Wuhan Novel Coronavirus is an offensive Biological Warfare Weapon. Dr.Boyle is a professor of international law at the University of Illinois College of Law. He drafted the U.S. domestic implementing legislation for the Biological Weapons Convention, known as the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, that was approved by both Houses of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President George H.W. Bush. Dr. Boyle said the virus escaped from a secure laboratory in Wuhan, He believes the virus is potentially lethal and an offensive biological warfare weapon , which is why the Chinese government originally tried to cover it up and has taken drastic measures to contain it. The Wuhan BSL-4 lab is a specially designated World ...
