FAREWELL to the NOBLE SAVAGE.......

SUBTITLE:  Frustrated Aboriginal Women Spill the Cultural Beans !

Which race is the more ancient and primitive? Islamic or the Australian Aboriginal? If you said Islamic you had better buy a history book because the answer is the Aboriginal race by around 50,000 years. So why do we still expect a sophisticated response when trillions of dollars is thrown at an Aboriginal race to try to drag it into the 21st century?
Alice Springs councillor Jacinta Price (below) has finally put aside PC bullshit to uncover a culture of Aboriginal child cruelty, partner bashing, and female subjugation to demand a national task force to combat the epidemic of family violence in Aboriginal communities.
“In remote communities, traditional culture is shrouded in secrecy which allows perpetrators to control their victims,” Ms Price said. “While my own family could suffer a violent backlash to my speaking out, it is a national shame Aboriginal male perpetrators are able to use traditional culture to excuse their crimes.”
It is not only the males, as Ms Price says. Females can be equally violent and cruel but that's the feminist angle seeping out.
She continued, “One is expected to pretend that these perpetrators are decent human beings and ignore the fact that they have committed acts of physical and sexual violence against those you love, because to speak out is to create conflict,” she said. “It is apparently far more important not to offend than it is to speak honestly about Australian citizens being killed in this country.”
Aboriginal culture is steeped in ancient barbaric practices, as is Islamic culture, yet neither can be lawfully discussed under our wonderful Discrimination Act. Now that Aborigines themselves have pried open a can of witchetty grubs to display the atrocious acts their family members perform on each other with impunity, poor Gillian Triggs, our Australian Human Rights Commissioner, must be having a seizure.
No white person of European heritage can say these things without copping a ‘please explain’ letter from the HRC, but now, when an Aborigine explains it, we might finally begin to understand the depth of Aborigines’ difficulties trying to survive within a white legal system... and who gives a stuff if Triggs gets her ovaries in a knot.
I have said for years in PP that Aborigines cannot be allowed alcohol or any other drug and they must never be locked up. For 60,000 years they have never experienced four walls and a bolt on a door that prevents escape.
They understand punishment, yes, but not the white man’s enclosed punishment where they are often found hanged or asphyxiated by their own hands. Pointing the bone will result in death, but that’s a cultural death in the open and under the sun, or it can be banishment that will also end in death. A culture borne over 60,000 years cannot be bridged in a brief 200 years.
The horrible truth is that the Aboriginal culture will never survive the 21st century and will slowly die through inbreeding. So what’s the answer in the interim? Well, it’s certainly not throwing more billions of dollars at it! And it’s certainly not shifting them into our inner suburbs. Don’t even suggest taking their kids from them or we’ll still be saying sorry in 2080.
Why are urban Aborigines attracted to Islam? Is it because there are cultural similarities? I mean both cultures see their female children as sexual beings at the age of nine, both use the outrageous disfigurement of children as a gateway to adulthood.
Both cultures sexually demean women as mere objects for self satisfaction. Both are violently tribal, and like Bedouins, they are nomadic without a permanent base where crops could be grown and plentiful water reticulated.
The old Aboriginal men of the tribe “educate” the young girls while the old women sexually educate the young boys. Why would they change this practice simply because some white dudes turned up in a boat and forbade it?
The Aboriginal women who spoke of the crisis at the Press Conference yesterday have drawn a line in the red sand. They described reality. But unfortunately it's a circular line  because the Aboriginal race is arguably the most primitive on the planet. No bows and arrows, no wheel, no numbers (except the number “one” and “lots”) no intertribal currency, no common language and no answers. It is simply a case of use up what’s here and shoot through to where there’s more.
The Way I See it.....of course we would die in a week in their environment as surely as they are dying in ours. 
The answer is there is no answer except that Aborigines will eventually disappear through inbreeding with Europeans. Eventually they will be so few in number so as not to be a political force. 
The opposite is the case with Islam.
Larry Pickering says; ''The answer to Islamic culture is WTF did you allow them to settle here in the first place for?''

The Leftists Cry For a Foul Dictator while Miami Cubans Celebrate His Death !


IF only Donald Trump was a dictator who killed and jailed his opponents and enslaved his people.
Maybe then the ABC would give Trump the respect it’s now showered on the belatedly dead Fidel Castro.
To the ABC, Trump is a racist, sexist, neo-fascist demagogue whose election as president of the United States, said ABC boss Michelle Guthrie, was “a bruising experience for women everywhere”. A “nightmare”, agreed ABC host Barrie Cassidy.
In contrast its vitriol changed to the sickening sweetness of the ABC’s coverage of Castro’s death.
More tears for Castro from Left-wing politicians, and a perfect description of exactly this kinds of idiot.

Greens Senator and rabid unashamed Communist, Lee Rhiannon, Twittered, yesterday:

Fidel Castro liberated Cuba from corruption, exploitation. From opposing apartheid to bringing healthcare to Third World, he inspired so many.

Among them, Canadian wuse Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, November 26:
A legendary revolutionary and orator, Mr Castro made significant ­improvements to the education and healthcare of his island nation. While a controversial figure, both Mr Castro’s supporters and detractors recognised his tremendous dedication and love for the Cuban people who had a deep and lasting affection for “el Comandante”...

The Perfect Latin American Idiot, Mendoza et al, 2000:
“ ... (the idiot) will still gyrate in excitement like a dog seeing a bone if during a visit to Cuba he finds before him the hand and the bearded, exuberant and monumental presence of the “Maximum Leader”. And, naturally, being a perfect idiot, he will find plausible explanations for the worst disasters created by Castro. If there is hunger on the island, the cruel US embargo is to blame; if there are exiles, it’s because they are incapable of understanding the revolutionary process; if there are prostitutes, it isn’t due to the poverty on the island but rather because ­Cubans now have the freedom to use their bodies as they wish.”


Donald Trump gives Fidel Castro the send-off he deserves. Will the ABC now dry its tears for a dictator - and will Malcolm Turnbull follow Trump's lead?
Trump tells it just as it is:
''Today, the world marks the passing of a brutal dictator who oppressed his own people for nearly six decades. Fidel Castro’s legacy is one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights.

While Cuba remains a totalitarian island, it is my hope that today marks a move away from the horrors endured for too long, and toward a future in which the wonderful Cuban people finally live in the freedom they so richly deserve.

Though the tragedies, deaths and pain caused by Fidel Castro cannot be erased, our administration will do all it can to ensure the Cuban people can finally begin their journey toward prosperity and liberty.

I join the many Cuban Americans who supported me so greatly in the presidential campaign, including the Brigade 2506 Veterans Association that endorsed me, with the hope of one day soon seeing a free Cuba.''
Tony Abbott also tells it like it is:
''In a column back in 2014, I noted that living standards in Cuba and Hong Kong were identical in the 1950s.

But the two nations then conducted an experiment. Hong Kong chose laissez-faire capitalism while Cuba chose communism.

The result, as you can see in the graph (http://freedomandprosperity.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Hong-Kong-v-Cub.jpg) is that Hong Kong has enjoyed decades of strong growth while Cuba has stagnated.''

I’m not alone in noticing the onerous economic cost of Cuban oppression. This academic article has a devastating summary.

We examine Cuban GDP over time and across space. We find that Cuba was once a prosperous middle-income economy. On the eve of the revolution, incomes were 50 to 60 percent of European levels. They were among the highest in Latin America at about 30 percent of the United States. In relative terms, Cuba was richer earlier on. 

Income per capita during the 1920s was in striking distance of Western Europe and the Southern United States. After the revolution, Cuba slipped down the world income distribution. Current levels of income per capita appear below their pre-revolutionary peaks."

There was even Praise for a dictator from Britain's contemptible Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn: (right)
''Fidel Castro's death marks the passing of a huge figure of modern history, national independence and 20th Century Socialism. Castro's achievements were many''
The Way I See It......it's amazing how preachers on "social justice" can excuse enslaving a whole people and murdering thousands. Provided it's all done by one of their own.

Bill Shorten is a Deadman Walking and in DEEP Shit !


There’s a look of death in Astralian Opposition Leader Bill Shorten’s eyes. His unconvincing anti-Abbott bravado, his confected grin and his repetitive, hollow claims that he tirelessly struggles to improve the conditions of the working man have become distant and meaningless echoes of past Labor Prime Minister, Julia Gillard. 
Bill Shorten is finished, he knows it, and even his formerly sympathetic pro-Labor Fairfax Press knows it. Australia's national broadcaster, the ABC, is still in denial phase but even it too must soon accept the inevitable.
Bill Shorten is the last of the Mohicans, he carries the stench of Labor’s decomposing union carcasses and, as surely as the Longshoremen’s links to the Chicago Mafia mob were broken, so too must Labor’s connection to the union mob here. 
Labor leaders tried to break the connection, but the Rudd experiment failed miserably and they returned to recruiting possible Prime Ministers from the ranks of crooks in the union movement... the ones who relentlessly pillage their workers’ wages to build power bases from which to launch themselves into the Parliament.
Oh, Labor knows it needs to break the criminal union link, it says so, but it knows no other way. It’s a well-worn path from Marxist uni politics to criminal unionism with stints in either of the two major Labor law firms before seeking pre-selection in safe Labor seats.
The spotlight is exposing the flimsy rule of loyal union brotherhood as comrades cannibalise their fellow comrades before disappearing in a vortex of fecal matter.
Union members have been ruthlessly shafted over decades, millions were stolen from workers with cover-ups arranged by Shorten from the Gillard/Wilson scam to ALP President Michael Williamson’s theft of $20 million from the HSU
A plea bargain of guilty to a mere theft of $1 million meant we will never know where Williamson has secreted the remaining $19 million or exactly how it was obtained (there is some evidence much of the money was transferred to his wife).
Shorten’s filthy deals with employers strengthened his position and bolstered his factional numbers to be used at National Conferences and in future Caucus battles. Those same numbers were used to callously knife two Labor Prime Ministers, paving the way for his own elevation. 
But those deals were always attained at a huge cost to the workers he claimed to support. One employer claimed his company was in a $2 million better position against his competitors due to a deal signed off by Bill Shorten. Hmmm.
So, can Shorten make it to the next election? No, and here’s why: His Caucus numbers may have secured his leadership but the rank-and-file voted against him and for Anthony Albanese.
Shorten eyes his Brutus.....Albanese
... the rank-and-file know Shorten too well. 
Kevin Rudd, as a last hurrah, shored up an ALP Opposition leader’s position by changing ALP rules to require a 60% Caucus majority vote to oust him, or her. 
In a fit of pique, Rudd also raised to 75% the majority required to oust a sitting Labor Prime Minister (reference Rudd) and that’s what will bring Shorten down. 
He will now slowly drag Labor’s polling figures toward panic levels and if it takes a difficult 60% Caucus majority to get rid of him now, a 75% majority will be nigh impossible in the unlikely event he became Prime Minister.
The Way I See It......the ALP is wallowing in an agonising state of flux; do they dump Shorten now or keep him there and hope like hell he doesn’t win the next election? Anthony Albanese is sitting pretty and it appears he only needs to stay out of Thai massage parlours.  
Rudd has unwittingly created an incentive for Caucus to rid themselves of Shorten now, rather than risk taking him to the people.
The phones are already running warm. 

CLOWNFISH Are Breeding Again On The REEF !!


As the corrupt IPCC sees their global warming hoax begin to collapse it has beefed up its expensive propaganda to new fraudulent heights attacking our Great Barrier Reef as “under threat” from “Climate Change” and re-scripting all of Sir David Attenborough’s wild-life docos to include a warming dimension. He would have received millions to have his name made a sickly warming joke like that.

How much international media attention will it take to get direct action to protect the Great Barrier Reef?” 

........screamed the Left's sexually confused Ellen Degeneres. Ellen has sufficient
researchers to easily establish that the Earth is not warming, that our reefs are not dying, that our seas are not rising, that ice caps are not shrinking, that New York is not yet under water and that the Himalayas have not melted ....all predictions of the corrupt IPCC and our own unqualified national buffoon, Tim Flannery.
The "settled" science of the IPCC is claimed solely by the charlatan "scientists" who are all individually employed by the IPCC itself and who indirectly get their wage packet from you and me. So why would anyone believe their "settled" science, especially when 30,000 fair dinkum scientists say it is all bullshit!

Natural, seasonal coral bleaching is how we get our white sandy beaches that surround our beautiful reefs.
Dead coral gets pulverised during constant cyclones to replenish those beaches while new coral replenishes the reef. Why don't simpleton uni Lefties understand how the world has operated for four billion years before they were born?
Coral bleaching is to our reefs what bushfires are to our bush!
Every living species on Earth must suffer regular migrations or in situ ordeals that allow for survival of the fittest to continually enhance the strain. That's how stuff gets better not worse, (as the dishonest IPCC would have you believe).   
He had been in power barely a month when Tony Abbott oversaw the sacking of two departmental heads who were the driving forces behind climate change “initiatives”. The scrapping of the Climate Commission, which had been established to provide public information on the “horrific effects” of, and potential solutions to, “global warming”.
The Climate Change Authority responsible for investment in renewable energy was also abolished. Only for most of it to be reinstated by the dimwit Malcolm Turnbull.
It’s a shame the Turnbull government hasn’t yet seen the light and stopped pandering to the inane Left’s outrageous aims.
The incessant footage of glaciers falling off into the sea does not indicate warming, in fact the opposite, as glacial ice increases at its source pressuring the old ice into floating bergs.

Senator Pauline Hanson arrived on the reef to show how healthy it was at the same time as the Green clown fish arrived on a small area that was bleached to show how "damaged" it was.
It's really quite laughable as a fresh army of undergraduate marine biologists stream out of publicly funded universities intent on creating themselves jobs... No reef damage, no jobs! No government trough to put their pretty little snouts in!
Donald Trump has set off alarm bells at the UN by denouncing “Climate Change” as an economy destroying fraud. Abbott has said much the same, so it’s no wonder the UN-adoring stick insect, Julie Bishop, blurted out that, “there is no vacancy” when asked if former PM Tony Abbott should have a place on the front bench.

At least the clownfish think it's safe to keep breeding an oversupply of
overpaid university clowns in bleached coral.
The Way I See It........at least Abbott would bring to the front bench some sanity to the warming debate that went missing at the same time as his knifing was arranged by his deputy, the stick insect. The problem now is an ineffective Turnbull and there is an insufficient (or just plain scared) number of Party roomers to kick him out and replace him in time for the next election with someone who has Australia at heart.
But yippee, it looks I will disappoint a lot of people and live long enough to see the world change as the loony Left is put back into its mouldy crypt for another 50 years until it can come up with something more convincing than “climate change”, wind mills and solar driven airliners.
Oh well, at least I can be certain my grandkids will see it.

Finally, Warmists Find a Real Threat !




Whatever else he does, President-elect Donald Trump can be counted on to shoo those green snouts out of the climate-scare trough -- first by repealing Obama's executive orders, then by re-directing from the UN to domestic environmental concerns. It's a beautiful thing.

“I’m feeling very flat today,” snuffled Amanda McKenzie, CEO of Tim Flannery’s crowd-funded Climate Council.  As she should, given that  President-elect Trump will  end  the trillion-dollar renewable-energy scam so beloved by the council.
McKenzie continues, “Progress on climate change can feel hopeless and it’s tempting to give up and turn away.” But instead, she rattles the tin for donations of $10 a month “to allow us to undertake some massive projects next year that will power communities and everyday Australians to spearhead our renewable energy transition.” Good luck with that, Amanda.
Throughout the Western world, green lobbies are likewise oscillating between despair and self-delusion over the Trump election.
Trump’s agenda – as per his election website –  includes:
  • Unleash America’s $50 trillion in untapped shale, oil, and natural gas reserves, plus hundreds of years in clean coal reserves.
  • Declare American energy dominance a strategic economic and foreign policy goal of the United States.
  • Become, and stay, totally independent of any need to import energy from the OPEC cartel or any nations hostile to our interests.
  • Rescind all job-destroying Obama executive actions.
  • Reduce and eliminate all barriers to responsible energy production, creating at least a half million jobs a year, $30 billion in higher wages, and cheaper energy.
Trump says Obama’s onslaught of regulations has been a massive self-inflicted economic wound denying  Americans access to the energy wealth sitting under their feet: “This is the American People’s treasure, and they are entitled to share in the riches.” ore than that, the president-elect’s  common-sense policies make the 20,000 climate careerists and activists in Marrakech, led by Vice-President John Kerry, seem comically irrelevant. They were supposed to be implementing the feeble Paris climate accord – notwithstanding that China has just announced a 19% expansion of coal capacity over the next five years.
But with the US leadership no longer concerned about climate doom, the rationale for these annual talk-fests (22  to date) has evaporated. Robert McNally, energy consultant and former George W. Bush adviser,  says climate change policy “is going to come to a screeching halt. The Paris Agreement from a U.S. perspective is a dead agreement walking.”
The agreement now has only the EU’s backing in terms of actual and significant cuts to emissions, although Australia is also now pledging to do its tiny bit for foot-shooting insanity. The EU’s continued subsidies to renewables will merely worsen its competitiveness vis a vis the new energy powerhouse across the Atlantic.
Trump has pledged not only to rip up the Paris deal, but to withdraw all US climate funding to the UN. The UN climate fund is supposed to build to $100b a year for Third World mendicants. Obama has given $500m so far and pledged $3 billion to the UN climate fund,  but Trump will divert those billions to domestic environmental projects such as the Florida Everglades. As he told supporters,  “We’re spending hundreds of billions of dollars. We don’t even know who’s doing what with the money.”
Obama, unable to get his climate legislation through the Republican-controlled Congress, used regulatory powers instead to get the job done. Trump can now neutralize those efforts simply by reversal or non-enforcement of the regulations.
One of the climate war’s best-kept secrets is that there is no real constituency for renewables, other than vested interests and noisy green groups.[1] That’s why both candidates gave global warming so little prominence in the campaign. Nearly a third of Americans think the global warming scare is a total hoax.
It’s a similar story internationally: a UN annual poll last month (9.7m respondents) had “action on climate change” rating dead last among 16 issues, with top ratings going to education, health care and jobs. Even people from the richest nations rated climate action only 10th. The poll in 2015 got the same result.

Trump’s personal view on climate-change science is that  CO2 is probably causing some warming but the scare is vastly exaggerated.[2] He will therefore reverse Obama’s assault on the coal and coal-fired power sectors and give them a better chance to compete with natural gas.
Trump’s choice of key climate advisers is a nightmare for the warmist establishment. To transition the US Environmental Protection Agency from climate activism, he’s picked outspoken skeptic , director of the Center for Energy & Environment at the conservative Competitive Enterprise Institute, Myron Ebell. The CEI is equivalent to Australia’s Institute of Public Affairs.

Ebell laughs at his leftist critics and cites to congress his Greenpeace listing as a leading “climate criminal”.  He thinks warming will not be a problem for one or two centuries; meanwhile we should expand access to all types of energy – on an unsubsidized basis.
Canadian climate scientist Tim Ball told a Melbourne seminar this week that Trump is getting science advice from satellite meteorologist Dr Roy Spencer. Spencer’s  data has demonstrated that orthodox climate models have exaggerated actual warming by a factor of two to three. His own readings from satellites showed no significant warming for the 21 years up to the 2015-16 El Nino spike. He emphasises the vast uncertainties about climate forecasting and the still-unknown roles of natural forces.
Dr Spencer, who holds a NASA Exceptional Scientific Achievement Medal for global temperature monitoring, believes  the near-universal funding of climate research by governments causes a bias towards catastrophic forecasting, since governments won’t fund non-problems. He wants funding to be at arm’s length from political interests. For the Department of Energy, Trump has picked energy lobbyist Mike McKenna, with ties to the industry-backed American Energy Alliance and Institute for Energy Research.
The Way I See It......Trump’s election is rocking the climate-scare industry to its foundations. Four decades of madness is coming to an end.

Judith Curry: Climate Models can't be Trusted !


Climate scientist, based at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Judith Curry reviews the performance of climate models used to predict future temperatures and blame past warming on man's emissions.
She concludes they are "not fit" for the purpose and have failed to predict even the past.
Climate models infer that all of the warming since 1950 can be attributed to humans. However, there have been large magnitude variations in global/hemispheric climate on timescales of 30 years, which are the same duration as the late 20th century warming. The IPCC does not have convincing explanations for previous 30 year periods in the 20th century, notably the warming 1910-1945 and the grand hiatus 1945-1975. Further, there is a secular warming trend at least since 1800 (and possibly as long as 400 years) that cannot be explained by CO2, and is only partly explained by volcanic eruptions.
Given the uncertainties in equilibrium climate sensitivity and the magnitude and phasing of natural internal variability on decadal to century timescales, combined with the failure of climate models to explain the early 20th century warming and the mid-century cooling, I conclude that the climate models are not fit for the purpose of identifying with high confidence the proportional amount of natural versus human causes to the 20th century warming.
As for predicting the future, Curry said the models are "warming too much":
The IPCC’s projections of 21st century climate change explicitly assume that CO2 is the control knob on global climate. Climate model projections of the 21st century climate are not convincing because of:
  • Failure to predict the warming slowdown in the early 21st century
  • Inability to simulate the patterns and timing of multidecadal ocean oscillations
  • Lack of account for future solar variations and solar indirect effects on climate
  • Neglect of the possibility of volcanic eruptions that are more active than the relatively quiet 20th century
  • Apparent oversensitivity to increases in greenhouse gases
There is growing evidence that climate models are warming too much and that climate sensitivity to CO2 is on the lower end of the range provided by the IPCC...
The 21st century climate model projections do not include:
  • a range of scenarios for volcanic eruptions (the models assume that the volcanic activity will be comparable to the 20th century, which had much lower volcanic activity than the 19th century
  • a possible scenario of solar cooling, analogous to the solar minimum being predicted by Russian scientists
  • the possibility that climate sensitivity is a factor of two lower than that simulated by most climate predictions.
  • realistic simulations of the phasing and amplitude of decadal to century scale natural internal variability.
... Hence we don’t have a good understanding of the relative climate impacts of the above or their potential impacts on the evolution of the 21st century climate.

The Way I See It........
It was easy to predict that when 20,000 world leaders, officials, green activists and hangers-on who convened in Paris for the 21st United Nations climate conference, one person you did not see much quoted is Professor Judith Curry. This is a pity. Her record of peer-reviewed publication in the best climate-science journals is second to none, and in America she has become a public intellectual. But on this side of the Atlantic, apparently, she is too ‘challenging’

What is troubling about her pariah status is that her trenchant critique of the supposed consensus on global warming is not derived from warped ideology, let alone funding by fossil-fuel firms, but from solid data and analysis.
Some consider her a heretic. According to discredited Professor Michael Mann (the idiot father of the debunked ''Hockey Stick Curve'') who festers at Pennsylvania State University, a vociferous advocate of extreme measures to prevent a climatic Armageddon, she is ''anti-science''.Curry isn’t fazed by the slur.

‘It’s unfortunate, but he calls anyone who doesn’t agree with him a denier,’ she tells me. ‘Inside the climate community there are a lot of people who don’t like what I’m doing. On the other hand, there is also a large, silent group who do like it. But the debate has become hard — especially in the US, because it’s become so polarised.’ Warming alarmists are fond of proclaiming the bullshit fact how 97 per cent of scientists agree that the world is getting hotter, and human beings are to blame. They like to reduce the uncertainties of climate science and climate projections to Manichean simplicity. They have managed to eliminate doubt from what should be a nuanced debate about what to do.
Professor Curry, does not dispute that human-generated carbon dioxide warms the planet. But, she says, the evidence suggests this may be happening much more slowly than the alarmists fear.

UPDATE:  Meanwhile, the obsessive focus on CO2 as the driver of climate change means other research on natural climate variability is being neglected. For example, solar experts believe we could be heading towards a ‘grand solar minimum’ — a reduction in solar output (and, ergo, a period of global cooling) similar to that which once saw ice fairs on the Thames. ‘The work to establish the solar-climate connection is lagging.’

Malcolm Turnbull is right about the link between immigration and terrorism


Malcolm Turnbull is right about the link between immigration and terrorism and the Belgian ambassador is completely wrong.

From Turnbull's Lowy Foundation address:
European Governments are confronted by a perfect storm of failed or neglected
integration, foreign fighters returning from Iraq and Syria, porous borders and intelligence and security apparatus struggling to keep pace with the scope and breadth of the threat. Bernard Squarcini, a former head of France’s internal intelligence service, described these factors as creating a favourable ecosystem for an Islamist milieu.
For all intents and purposes there are no internal borders in Europe, that has been a great achievement of openness, and the external borders are difficult to manage. Recent intelligence indicates that ISIL is using the refugee crisis to send operatives into Europe.
True enough. But still left unsaid by Turnbull is the clear and critical link between the numbers of Muslims in a Western nation and the danger to the host. More Muslims tends to mean more radicals tends to mean more terrorism.

Simply criticising Western countries for “neglected integration” is to falsely assume that their Muslim minorities can be integrated or even want to be.
So Belgian Ambassador Jean-Luc Bodson is in hopeless denial when he criticises Turnbull’s very mild remarks:

It’s dangerous because it’s precisely what ISIS wants — that we would make a confusion between terrorism and migrants and between terrorism and Islam…

My view is that the terrorists who committed the latest attacks and in Paris and in Belgium are European-raised and born. Maybe from foreign origins, but they are Europeans. So it has nothing to do with the refugee crisis...
False !  This has everything to do with immigration and Islam.
The fact is that the all the terrorists behind the slaughter in Paris and Brussels were Muslim immigrants or the children of them, killing people in the name of their faith..
That has urgent lessons for us:
Counter terrorism expert David Kilcullen suggests we’re not as vulnerable as some European
countries, but his final caveat is critical and undermines his argument:

Australia’s circumstances differ greatly from those in Europe. Australia’s border protection agencies are vastly more effective than the European frontier agencies overstressed by the twin impacts of massive refugee flows and an ongoing financial crisis.
Our police and intelligence services have a much better track record of detecting and wrapping up terrorist plots before attacks can mature.
Australia also lacks the common land border with serious conflict areas in the Middle East that makes Europe more vulnerable, and Australian society is vastly better integrated than some European societies, where marginalised and unemployed youth in poorly serviced housing developments become vulnerable to grooming and recruitment by radical Islamic extremists.
These are differences of scale, though, not of kind — Australia is much further down the spectrum than Europe, but the threat is still real.
Former Islamist radical Maajid Nawaz admits it’s the ideology - a popular version of Islam - that is the real problem:
-For many years, small ‘l’ liberals — and I speak as one — have refused to acknowledge the ideology of Islamism…
-Fearing a politically incorrect debate on values with Muslim communities, these same liberals preferred to view the problem as merely criminal, to be dealt with by law, or militaristic, to be dealt with by war…
-And as jihadist attack after ­jihadist attack came, liberals slowly, reluctantly, took to euphemistically naming the problem “violent extremism’’. They used nauseating, insipid phrases such as “al-Qa’ida-inspired extremism” to refer to what was an ideology… [I]t was not al-Qa’ida that had “inspired extremism”; it was extremism that had inspired al-Qa’ida…
-In fact, this struggle is first and foremost an ideological one..  Extremism certainly has something to do with Islam. Not nothing, not everything, but something.
-We can distinguish Islamist extremism from Islam by clarifying that whereas Islam is simply a religion, Islamism is a theocratic desire to impose any version of that religion over society…
-By failing to name the Islamist ideology and isolate it from everyday Islam, we are depriving these reforming voices of a language to deploy against those who are attempting to ­silence their progressive efforts within their own communities.
Nawaz (below) may be right to say Islam is just a faith, without a theocratic desire to impose it on others.
More likely, though, he is wrong, as the terrorists and leaders of Iran would insist. It might make sense for the rest of us to assume the worst while we wait for the Muslim community itself to demonstrate which view is right.
But together, the two points underline why we cannot be smug about how much better we assimilate Muslims.
The key issue here is critical mass. It is easier to assimilate immigrants or police the radicals when there are fewer of them - and when their numbers are not so great that they can form self-sustaining colonies.
So let’s compare.
France, which has suffered horrific mass-murders by Islamists, has more than 5 million Muslims - at least 7.5 per cent of the population.
Belgium, who has just suffered its own mass-murder by Islamists, has around 700,000 Muslims - 6.2 per cent of its small population.
Australia has 500,000 Muslims - about 2.1 per cent of the population.
If we had three times as many Muslims here to match the proportion in Belgium, or three and a half to match that in France, the danger here would almost certainly come close to the matching the danger there. Imagine radicals here having three times more supporters around them to support, supply and hide them.

The Way I See It......we, here in Australia, have the advantage of having the world’s biggest moat around us, but we would be utter fools not to recognise the key factors of this grave danger: the numbers of believers and their faith.

To limit the first and insist on change in the second is thus urgent. Yet both have been fiercely rejected by the Left, and even now Turnbull cannot speak frankly about either and neither will he back his Immigration Minister, Perter Dutton for mentioning. Trump-wise, that we need to be selective in our migrant intake in future to keep Australians from further danger.

NOTE: Dutton finally admitted that prime minister Malcolm Fraser in 1976 made a dangerous mistake by lowering our entry requirements and letting in many illiterate and unqualified Muslims fleeing Lebanon’s civil war. Yes, Dutton conceded, “Fraser did make mistakes in bringing some people in the 1970s and we’re seeing that today”.

Oops ! Too late. See the extraordinary crime wave we’ve since imported with Sudanese refugee gangs as well? The carjackings, home invasions and brazen thefts?
Will we never learn?

Hey LGBT Community, Resistance to You Has Nothing To Do With Being “Phobic”!


I can’t count how many times I’ve heard the accusation thrown at me.

“You’re homophobic!” says the gay, or lesbian.

“You’re transphobic!” says the transgendered.

This assumption usually comes smack dab in the middle – or if they’re lazy, at the beginning – of an argument against the latest in the long line of you-will-be-made-to-care attempts at bringing the culture at large to heel. Sometimes, the accusation is thrown out – not to silence an opponent in an argument – but to no-platform someone who they feel needs to be silenced before he or she even opens their mouth.

But how accurate is the label of homophobic, or transphobic when thrown at others, and the public at large when they, like me, resist the agenda? Not very. Sure there may be some who are so disgusted by the idea of gender bending, or homosexuality that it sends them into a quivering mess of fear and anxiety, but I don’t imagine they are very many. In fact, I imagine there are more people out there actually suffering from gender dysphoria than there are “transphobes.”

The dictionary defines a phobia is “an extreme, or irrational fear of something.” A good visual example would be someone’s fear of snakes, dogs, or heights. The person, upon being introduced to the very sight of these things, is reduced to something like a cornered animal with his or her primal fight-or-flight instinct hammering at the mind.

You can see how the “phobe” accusation is a ridiculous one. “Phobe” hardly fits those who disagree with homosexuality or transgenderism, or it’s activist community’s agenda, but that’s not the point. The point is to paint the opposition as irrational, and/or hateful. This way the opposing person, or persons, is viewed with an initial level of contempt, and their words and points are automatically worth less, or not even up for consideration.

Somewhat humorously, many people with the label leveled at them are accused of being phobic as they share friendships, and maybe even strong familial ties with the LGB, and maybe even the T. I know my LGBT friends would find the accusations leveled at me surprising.

So if it’s not phobia (id est, hatred or irrational fear), then why would we resist the LGBT community’s march on the culture? The answer is simple:

We’re not a part of that culture!

Reports differ, but the LGBT community makes up something like less than 4% of the total population in America. It has its allies, but outside of this small bubble, the rest of the country at large has little interest, or investment, in the LGBT community.

And we can’t be blamed for this. The hard truth about humanity is that if someone can’t relate, then they have a hard time investing in the cause or issue. A straight person should be no more expected to interrupt his or her life for the LGBT community, as a lesbian should be expected to for the local frisbee golf league. Unless she’s into that sort of thing, of course.

The American culture at large is very accepting of the LGBT community. Gay and lesbian characters are in movies and television are somewhat common, and some of the most popular programs have had gay or lesbian leads as characters. Modern Family, Will and Grace, and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, just to name a few. Ellen DeGeneres is openly lesbian, and has one of the most famous talk shows in America. This live and let live mentality toward homosexuality is generally pretty static.

But every now and again, the LGBT activist community will attempt to force itself on the culture at large by injecting its issues into places where it doesn’t belong. A very recent example came in the form of a hashtag campaign called #GiveCaptainAmericaABoyfriend, where the community rose up to declare that the “fans” wanted Steve Rogers to have homosexual urges, preferably for his longtime friend, Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier. The hashtag was celebrated by all the usual media suspects, such as E Online, LA Times, and even TIME.

Naturally there was a resistance, and that resistance was labeled with all the usual “phobes” and accusations of hate and disgust. But the resistance wasn’t there for any of those reasons. Once again, it comes down to the simple issue of relating, or finding common ground. People across the nation love Captain America because he is the quintessential American archetype. He’s straight, a Christian, and a patriot. He hates fascism, nazism, and communism. He loves freedom, etc etc etc. He is who many of us aspire to be.

Only a small fraction would relate to ''Cap'' if he suddenly became concerned with closeted homosexuality, or his relationship with his former war buddy. Hell, judging by some of the responses on Twitter while this hashtag war was raging, even a fraction within that fraction wouldn’t want to see a Captain America concerned with homosexuality because they think the concept doesn’t fit for ''Cap'' either. Despite the media’s overblown reporting, very few people want to see a Captain America concerned with identity politics, and this applies to all characters, and even other media.

Even the channel known as Logo, which was aimed directly at the LGBT community, began introducing content that didn’t focus so much on the identity issues of the community because they found out it’s viewers were less interested in shows highlighting their identity. If the LGBT channel doesn’t want it all that much, why would the general public?

Remember that this issue concerns, at most, 4% of us. Naturally, when a demographic this small tries to force its concerns and views on everyone else, there’s going to be resistance. But this isn’t because of hate, it’s because it’s not our view or concern. In fact, when it’s made to become our concern is when you generally see a fight erupt.

And the fight is tiring. Every attempt to strip freedoms – like being able to fine someone exorbitant
amounts of money for misgendering someone – or every attempt at pirating pop-culture – like injecting social justice into movies and video games – results in someone like me having to rise up and stand athwart. The more straights resist and fight, the more they can stack the up “phobia” argument.

The Way I See It........that’s what really happens when the LGBT community forces itself on everyone. It causes division, when it was an attempt at bringing forth acceptance. A forced attempt to get more acceptance, but the acceptance nonetheless.

But the vast majority of us aren’t the LGBT community. We’re not concerned with it, nor should we be expected to. We don’t deal with their problems in our everyday life, nor do we wish to. We can be friends, and family members, and we may care for their happiness, but that doesn’t mean that our world has to become theirs.
