Daily Telegraph - The Sunday Telegraph can reveal the Prime Minister personally wrote to the industry umbrella group only days before the 2007 poll to re-assure them he would maintain existing arrangements with the levy in government. Yesterday, however, Treasurer Wayne Swan revealed major changes to be unveiled in Tuesday’s Budget, where the income threshold at which the surcharge applies will double from $50,000 to $100,000. The decision to raise the threshold means up to 2.4 million Australians will no longer need to join private health funds to avoid the penalty. Read the rest of this entry »

The recent takeover of Lebanon by Hizbullah has a number of sickening implications, explored in excellent detail over at Monkey in the Middle. The Lebanese army is looking on helplessly…passively. Meanwhile the U.N. has basically ignored the incursions of the terror group on a legitimate democracy. As Katie says, “UNIFIL kept finding Hezbollah arms and did nothing to stop the flow.” That is, until last month, when the U.N. actually caught them with a truckload of weapons and called for their disarmament.
Hizbullah will now begin the takeover of Lebanon’s army in order to march on Israel. Katie makes some sobering observations on a Hizbullah/Lebanon attack on Israel: Read the rest of this entry »

AhMADinejad is, quite possibly, as mad as a two-bob-watch. We’ve previously posted about this man’s bizarre messianic delusions in which he believes himself to be some sort of prophet of the 12th Imam and a significant religious figure in ushering in the global caliphate. And it’s clear that he is at the forefront of a network of nefarious entities, such as Hizbullah and Gaza now firmly enstated as puppets of his grandiose scheme to ‘wipe out Israel from the face of the planet’ and, no doubt, the west after that.
So when you get a group of Iranians who PEACEFULLY oppose his insane proliferations and profanities against humanity, you’d think we’d support them…right? RIGHT, Gordon Brown? RIGHT E.U.? Hello??? In 2005: Read the rest of this entry »

Absolutely brilliant piece of writing. I wish I had written this. I’m not adding or subtracting a word:
[population] food and water will control it
If you were to ask yourself what is the most pressing issue of the next ten to twenty years, you might not say the credit crisis as most think it will be solved in the short term. I say nothing.

News.com.au - Treasurer Wayne Swan has confirmed that his Budget on Tuesday will include a provision to lift the tax on luxury cars above $57,000 from 25 per cent to 30 per cent, affecting 105,000 car purchases a year.
Yeah baby, yeah, finally the proletariat get to stick it to the filthy bourgeoisie, all hail the glorious new leadership and fresh ‘new’ taxing ideas. First was the tax on the alcopops and now this, it’s coming baby, these slimeballs are just getting started.
Mr Swan defended the rise, saying he needed to find savings following years of unsustainable spending by the Howard government. “We don’t think it is unreasonable for people who have done well in recent years from government decisions in terms of top-end tax cuts - just pay a little more for a luxury car,” Mr Swan said.
Because let’s face it, all those bastards who can afford those $57K plus fancy gas-guzzlers didn’t get the money to buy them through years of hard work did they Swannie, not holding two or 3 jobs or anything, we all know those filthy bastards did something nasty to get that money.

Back in February this year…
European Commissioner for Justice, Freedom, and Security, Franco Frattini, who is the European Union (EU) official responsible “for combating racism and Antisemitism in Europe,” as reported by The Jerusalem Post 2/2/08, has revealed that Muslims are responsible for fully half (50%) of the documented Antisemitic incidents on the European continent.
Demographic data from 2007 indicate that the total number of Europeans is 494.8 million; estimates of the number of Muslims in Europe range from 15-20 million, or some ~3.0-4.0% of the total European population. Thus, on a population percentage basis, Muslims in Europe account for roughly 24.0 to 32.3 times the number of Antisemitic incidents as their non-Muslim European counterparts.
Clearly Muslims are responsible for the lion’s share of these crimes, but why is this tolerated in the west? Maybe because we tolerate the neo-Nazis in the white community and even the respectable person next door who likes to blame all and sundry on the Jews. Convenient. Read the rest of this entry »

“If I wanted to create a surveillance society, I would start by creating dossiers on kindergarten children so that the next generation could not comprehend a world without surveillance.” - Andre Bacard, author of ‘The Computer Privacy Handbook’
Australia is sneaking in Orwellian legislations which will place every school child onto a central student register. Every member of staff will be able to track the movements of your child at any time and will know all about him/her; whether he/she has been to court and why etc. etc. I know this because I know someone in the system. Ironically, the only reference to this new bill pushed through just weeks ago, was on the Greens’ site. The Greens try to maintain their unique ’supportive though critical’ approach of Victorian Labor: Read the rest of this entry »

BREAKING NEWS: The Dark Side has just burst down the dam. A free, democratic country is falling under the steely fingers of totalitarian violence. Mayhem reigns.
God help those Lebanese who dream of a free country. I have heard from even a Muslim Lebanese how they hate and fear Hizbullah! And God help, all the more, our vulnerable Christian brothers and sisters in that place.
Beirut has fallen under the yoke of Nassrallah militiamen. A victory some are calling it. Hordes of militiamen running in the streets shooting at civilians and residential areas. TVs, newspapers and magazines are being closed down. Checkpoints are being built. Welcome to the new age, the age of Hezbollah iron grip! Read the rest of this entry »

Until now, plucky Ireland has been one of the last bastions of resistance to the Lisbon Treaty, stubbornly maintaining a ‘no’ vote, but the pressure has been relentless and the ‘nos’ may soon give way to the E.U.S.S.R. Amongst the powerful elite of the big business world, putting irresistible pressure on the grassroots Irish, is Microsoft:
‘‘Every single business and professional organisation who has come out is behind Lisbon. I’m not aware of a single business group who is against it,” said Ibec director, Brendan Butler. Read the rest of this entry »

Daily Telegraph - A man who allegedly shot his former girlfriend at Star City Casino had been convicted of stalking her four years ago, a court has heard. Todd William Devaney, 37, was not brought up from the cells below Central Local Court this morning as he faced five charges arising from yesterday’s alleged shooting in Pyrmont, including attempted murder and maliciously inflicting grievous bodily harm. [snip]
Court paperwork revealed the alleged victim of yesterday’s shooting was Holly Graham, a fitness instructor at the Star City Casino’s gym, who Devaney had previous been found guilty of stalking in 2004. She had taken out an apprehended violence order against him at the time. [snip] Documents tendered to the court stated Devaney had a string of convictions for firearms offences, stalking and armed robbery dating back more than a decade. Read the rest of this entry »

China, who has been buying up North American debt at ‘breakneck speed’ whilst neglecting their own populace, has now set their sights on South American farming land. . It seems that China can no longer feed its own vast legions via its own farmers. Via Financial Times:
Chinese companies will be encouraged to buy farmland abroad, particularly in Africa and South America, to help guarantee food security under a plan being considered by Beijing. Read the rest of this entry »

Madman Ahmadinejad has been out inspecting his glistening nuclear facilities. By next year, it’s estimated that he will have his first weapon.
Nukes, the ultimate weapon…they strike fear into the heart of the infidels. And for good reason. They can do this…

And this…
A person who has been known to discuss the annihilation of Israel and who has clear issues with other western nations is not a fit person to possess nukes to say the least.

Reports of one million Burmese homeless and predictions of 100,000 fatalities are emerging in the wake of Cyclone Nargis.
Burma’s China-backed Junta government, denying the traumatized Burmese the aid they so desperately need, clearly hates its people:
“Running the country on a combination of internal repression and xenophobia,” writes Kenneth Denby in the Times (London), “the junta seems not to have made up its mind that this is a tragedy that it cannot remedy on its own.” The government’s craven disregard for the survival of its own people in the midst of this catastrophe, the worst since the 2004 tsunami, should surprise no one. It is the easily predictable reflex of a brutal and paranoid regime–aided and abetted by U.N. apologists and a culture of human-rights hypocrisy. Read the rest of this entry »

SMH - Police have arrested a man suspected of shooting a Star City casino worker this afternoon, briefly holding up a visit to the area by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. The 25-year-old woman, who is understood to be a fitness instructor, was shot three times in the stomach and hip in the gym on level five of the Pyrmont complex in Sydney this afternoon. The man was carrying three guns, one an automatic pistol, said Inspector Lee.
Oh my godless, you mean there are bad people out there with mean, nasty guns, I thought everyone handed in their guns and was dealing with their violent urges by sitting in the lotus position and humming quietly. Somebody call a pollie, pen an angry letter to your local member, get them to pass tough new laws and call passionate press conferences condemning violence and weapons, that’ll do the trick and take all those nasties off the streets.

NOTE: see our second story (at the end of this one) about Microsoft pushing Ireland into ratifying the E.U. Lisbon Treaty!!
The third world rice planters and factory workers: they already live on next to nothing.
So this is surreal: Western leaders getting miffed that the third world has started eating too much;
Europe hogging the food of the third world to create bio-fuel;
The Swiss regulating the consumption of vegetables, because, well, plants have feelings too (all this at a time when the daily necessities of millions are drying up).
The people of the third world could be forgiven for wanting to cull the murderous first world. What a disgrace! Read the rest of this entry »

The BBC, quotes Medvedev on his first comments as Prime Minister elect of Russia:
“We will be able to preserve the course of President Putin,” he said at a celebration in Moscow’s Red Square.
His mentor is now set to become prime minister - and in that role will continue to wield substantial power.
It’s common knowledge that Putin, unable under Russian law to continue in the role of president, has carved himself out a power niche as prime minister, placing the lapdog Medvedev in the role of figure head.
Putin is Europe’s richest man. Read the rest of this entry »

You’ve probably heard of E.U.S.S.R. enabling Common Purpose UK, the organization that has been training a network of leaders who are consequently being promoted into positions of power in the political and law enforcing circles of the U.K. Julia Middleton is the CEO.
On the subject of Julia Middleton, the comrade journalists over at the Guardian are full of praise, painting her as a wise guru on success, the article ending with a smattering of bullet points, bland in language, offering insights to achieve your potential. Her book, Beyond Authority: Leadership in a Changing World, looks set to sell like hotcakes. Besides being an author, she’s also the CEO of founded in 1989. She’s also been on several other think tanks (such as Marxist DEMOS) and societies. With her obvious wealth and international education at all the very best schools, Middleton is a modern day Aristocrat-Marxist. Read the rest of this entry »

We almost always have excellent commentary on TMS, but every so often there is a comment that really stands out. One posted just today is worth bottling. I present to you Black Sheep’s views on political hypocrisy, freedom, the rise and fall of Empires, the waves of disease that march across our planet, the frailty of humans, the futility and the hope of blogging, himself, myself and the hope of a better day one day:
I’ve seen the fall of Hitler and Tojo and Mussolini, I went about my business as Stalin murdered millions of his countrymen, I’ve seen my own government, that fought Fascism and won, turn around and prop up ruthless dictators one after the other and always with the same result. The dictators were toppled and America was hated for supporting them.

Faith News Network - According to a CNSNews.com article, in her Earth Day news release, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) attributed this quote to the Old Testament: “To minister to the needs of God’s creation is an act of worship. To ignore those needs is to dishonor the God who made us.”
However, many biblical scholars cite a problem with that quotation: it doesn’t exist in the Bible.It was not the first time Pelosi has used this alleged biblical passage. The California Democrat has used it on several different occasions, and has even attributed the passage to the Old Testament Book of Isaiah. Dr. Raymond Bohlin is president of Probe Ministries, a non-profit apologetics ministry. He offers his findings. Read the rest of this entry »

Is the Islamic community hiding the ‘honor’ killer, Yaser Abdel Said? Since he murdered his two beautiful daughters, he has evaded police, despite a reward out on his head and numerous pictures of him posted around. Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs believes he’s being hidden:
Yaser Abdel Said had two passports, a USA passport and an Egyptian passport. Yaser Abdel Said had over $9,000 in cash hidden (from State welfare investigators.. no checking accounts) in his rental house that he shared with his wife Patricia, son Islam and the two murdered girls.
Patricia Said had taken $5,000 when she split on or about 12/25/2007 with the two girls, Sarah Yaser Said, 17, and Amina Yaser Said, 18, when she returned on or about 1/01/2008, she brought back most of the $5,000. Read the rest of this entry »

Back in November, I posted on the U.K.’s rising star, David Miliband. I don’t normally do this, but I’m resurrecting that post in its entirety. I believe it’s relevant now more than ever as Gordon Brown is at about rock bottom in the popularity stakes:
November: A break between America and the U.K.; a dagger in the heart of Europe’s economy and a host of other nefarious consequences might ensue once Brown’s successor, David Miliband gets into power. Miliband is looking to be the leader of the new U.K., an anti-American, extreme socialist Europhile who is bent on bringing Turkey into the E.U. This could effectively consign the other E.U. member states to economic disaster and an unrelenting flood of Turkish immigrants.
A couple of days ago, we posted a story about Miliband’s address to an E.U. assembly, in which he spoke about the desirability of the expansion of the E.U. to who knows what kind of a global conglomerate. You can check that out here. Read the rest of this entry »

You are probably entirely unaware that a major virus has broken out in China and Vietnam. At least 5000 people (12,000 by some estimates) are infected and (according to official figures) 26 have died so far. And now it has spread to Beijing, the city hosting this year’s Olympic games in August. Just think about that. The athletes and spectators of the world are going into a city so polluted that it needs to be cleaned up for the games, and infected with a highly contagious disease. Guardian says that it is ‘yet to peak’…In other words, it’s expected to spread. Read the rest of this entry »
