Fri 12th March 2021 Current Affairs

In 2018 I posted a video I'd made for FB, titled 'a moving heart.' I'd posted over a hundred personal videos there, thousands of personal pictures and memorials for friends past, as well as hopes for the future. Soon after January 6th, Facebook blocked me and so now I cannot access any of my personal items. I cannot use the FB app to access any other app that uses it as ID. FB has given me no specific reason as to why they blocked me, saying that my previous 'transgressions' they had clocked meant I was not a good FB citizen. I'm not a bad citizen. I'm gracious and kind. I'm not given to profanity or abuse. However, I vigorously oppose AGW alarmism, and that transgresses some FB political 'facts'. Similarly, I oppose irrational COVID statements which also transgress FB's political position. FB are not supposed to censor me for politics. I'm conservative, not radical. I don't endorse violence. 

However, FB endorses violence for political reasons. FB has no problem cheering illegal immigrants to death as weak borders claim hundreds of thousands of lives of the poor and desperate. FB endorses racism and violence surrounding race. They allow extremist right wing and left wing groups to espouse hatred, including anti semitism.  FB has claimed such abuse is within their community standard. FB allows and promotes sexual degradation. They allow an exposed breast, but not a baby feeding. FB was part of a cabal promoting Biden for President from his garage, and cheating the 2020 Presidential election. I was blocked from Twitter circa 2015 for writing that Obama should face justice and be hanged. Need I point to the threats Twitter has posted regarding Trump, since? Note well, I did not call for any violence against Obama. In a fair world, neither FB nor Twitter would have blocked me. 

Remember when progressives opposed racism? 

Bill Leak was hounded to death

Now, racism is promoted by FB

Important Things from It’s a Wonderful Life
Every life has important things. Things we want to achieve. For me, it was the privilege of being around as two fine young people grew up. Or being needed by my daughter to help with her education needs. But also I need job satisfaction, to live within my means, to point to God using scripture. I have lots of ambition, but sometimes, I’m humbled when something really important happens. Just like George Bailey.

Further to the Pope Francis question posted the other day, I ask, who was Phil Haney and why is he dead? Haney was critical of aspects of Pope Francis' spearheading an Abrahamic Faith initiative. As with much touched by the Pope and other globalists, the worthy concept is a shell for distracting the Muslim Brotherhoods terrorist activity from exposure as domestic terrorism from BLM gets called conservative terrorism as a red herring. Why is the Pope going to bat for terrorists? Haney questions the inclusion of terrorist faith as representative of Islamic faith. It had been a mistake of the Obama administration which Haney had resigned from DHS over such issues. But a week after Haney tells a colleague to keep digging, he is thought to have suicided. Yet Haney was near completing a book and risk averse, avoiding flying because he felt it was dangerous. Yet the FBI treated the death as if Hunter had pulled the trigger. 

Pope calls violence in the name of God the greatest blaspheme. Couldn't he have just said it was bad? Poor King David, Moses, Joshua, and Joseph all come acropper on this one. Maybe if Francis had called it the worst Blaspheme we'd have a better sense of his intent? He is saying it is bad, right?

If liberals are correct, and government spending and high taxes make us all better off, then why not spend and tax even more? In this episode, I address these questions and the anti-intellectual nature of liberalism.

Here is a video I made Good News Week

Hedgehoppers Anonymous were a 1960s beat group from the United Kingdom. They formed in November 1963 as The Trendsetters, and became The Hedgehoppers the following year. Jonathan King took over their record production in 1965, and added "Anonymous" to their name when they said they were popular in Peterborough, and did not want to change their name completely.
Their major success was the King produced and written "It's Good News Week", issued on Decca. This song has also been used as the theme music for Good News Week, a satirical news-based comedy quiz show on Australian television which ran from 1996 to 2000 and has subsequently been revived in 2008. Four other singles were released by the group before the final line-up dissolved. Lack of further chart activity leaves them labelled as one-hit wonders.

Don't give up on hope. Al Gore profiting from hysteria over AGW. He is not the smartest of men, having been gifted a ride in a top university and graduated a 'c' student. He is worth over a $hundred million and yet it is not from his own hard work, but for his advocacy, which is flaky and does not stand up to casual scrutiny. Imagine were a Republican to advise a government panel to take a course of action that would profit them and hurt the poorest in the world? Writes NB "He might not be that intelligent , but like all conmen, he is gutter rat cunning, and he knows all the ploys of playing on basic human fears, eg survival. And he manipulates these fears and human herd mentality by creating panic."

Class warfare by Bill Shorten has the ALP leader calling for the removal of franking credits. The argument is it hurts the rich not the poor. I am among the poorest in Australia, yet I get those credits as my few shares are set up that way. Shorten would have everyone pay tax twice. And Malcolm Turnbull has no plans to stop Shorten from being PM next election. 

Racism is harming Aboriginals. In response, activists are calling for more racism. It is an absurd situation. The intervention has improved things, a little, but with some 60 times more likely Aboriginal children with STI, something is very wrong inside the community. And activists demanding that Aborigines be treated differently by race does not address the problem, but exacerbates it. Meanwhile racism in South Africa is resulting in white farmers being killed. But international bodies which would criticise such things happening to others are being quiet.

Election promises in WA from ALP via https://thewest.com.au/politics/state-politics/promise-tracker


Election promises from WA ALP without meaningless increased spending, that targets infrastructure improvement and doesn't duplicate Liberal promises or promote a fad like AGW.

Empty list. ALP have been elected in WA to do nothing but spend tax dollars.

After six years of hiding, Molly Norris is still alive. But invisible. Unable to ply her trade of cartooning. She is in witness protection that she pays for. And this is because the West is cowed by Daesh Death Cult. This is because Obama is President and he does not like freedoms Americans used to enjoy. The left claim to support free speech, and they do, if it is from the correct tribe. Molly would ordinarily be in that tribe. But Molly, in an exercise of free speech, made a handful of MoToons and is now on hit lists published by Daesh. Where are those willing to stand for basic freedoms? What of the Presidential candidates? And where is the condemnation of a US President who was so weak it came to this?

 Race baiting is an atrocity. It shouldn't be banned, but must be addressed. In the US campaigners are looking to inflate tragedies involving people killed by police resisting arrest. Fighting with police is probably the stupidest thing anyone who wants to live can do. But success for the race baiters has resulted in two police being shot in Ferguson while rioters were protesting the tragedy of ones killed by police while resisting arrest. And Obama is the world's most famous race baiter. His throw away line that a violent thief could have been his son was needlessly inflammatory. Much as the Mayor of NYC disagreeing with an investigation into his police force's apprehension and tragic killing of a man resisting arrest. It has become popular to declare the police having a depraved indifference to the idiots. In Australia, race baiting means you can abuse the PM if they are conservative regardless of their history and practice. Mr Abbott has deliberately and tirelessly worked to improve the circumstance of Aboriginal peoples even living in the poorest communities and raising awareness at the highest levels .. the Australian Constitution .. much to the disgust of those who don't countenance the racism behind a constitution that differentiates on race. People that are race baiters should be allowed to speak .. and should be criticised. And those who agree with race baiters should be exposed for the bigots they are. 
From 2014
Belisarius is sometimes called 'The Last of the Romans' a general under Justinian of the Byzantine Empire, he reconquered a lot of what had been lost when Rome fell. He fought Goths and Vandals and won. But they weren't as pernicious as they are now. Belisarius designed a troop of heavy war horse which was a significant advance on earlier military organisations. It was on this day, in 538, Ostrogoth king Vitiges left Rome to the victorious Belisarius. 

In stark contrast, today in 1864 saw the launch of the Red River campaign. In Louisiana, a large union force of thirty thousand engaged with a confederate force between fifteen and six thousand and failed to  achieve any of their objectives. Central to achieving any goal is planning. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. 

One thing that cannot be planned yet, despite the technology, is family. Things happen with family which takes more than planning, it takes grace and compassion. An old joke about Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) is that given ideal STP conditions, an amoeba will do exactly as it pleases. I read an account today of a father raising a boy with autism. Not an entire account, but the salient point was the dad had had to start a school for autistic children because one had not existed and it was something his child needed, and other children. It takes money. It takes time, and there is not enough of either for everything. But such things take on a life of their own. between the ages of one and six is the ideal time to intervene in autism for development. Not to cure, but to support. It exposes the truth that failing to plan is not the same as not planning enough. There is always more to be done. But the journey of a thousand miles, still begins with a single step.

Today's Old Testament reading: Deuteronomy 13-15

Worshiping Other Gods

1 If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears among you and announces to you a sign or wonder, 2 and if the sign or wonder spoken of takes place, and the prophet says, "Let us follow other gods" (gods you have not known) "and let us worship them," 3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The LORD your God is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and with all your soul....

Today's New Testament reading: Mark 12:28-44

The Greatest Commandment
28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
29 "The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31 The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."

March 11: Morning
"Sin ... exceeding sinful." - Romans 7:13
Beware of light thoughts of sin. At the time of conversion, the conscience is so tender, that we are afraid of the slightest sin. Young converts have a holy timidity, a godly fear lest they should offend against God. But alas! very soon the fine bloom upon these first ripe fruits is removed by the rough handling of the surrounding world: the sensitive plant of young piety turns into a willow in after life, too pliant, too easily yielding. It is sadly true, that even a Christian may grow by degrees so callous, that the sin which once startled him does not alarm him in the least. By degrees men get familiar with sin. The ear in which the cannon has been booming will not notice slight sounds. At first a little sin startles us; but soon we say, "Is it not a little one?" Then there comes another, larger, and then another, until by degrees we begin to regard sin as but a little ill; and then follows an unholy presumption: "We have not fallen into open sin. True, we tripped a little, but we stood upright in the main. We may have uttered one unholy word, but as for the most of our conversation, it has been consistent." So we palliate sin; we throw a cloak over it; we call it by dainty names. Christian, beware how thou thinkest lightly of sin. Take heed lest thou fall by little and little. Sin, a little thing? Is it not a poison? Who knows its deadliness? Sin, a little thing? Do not the little foxes spoil the grapes? Doth not the tiny coral insect build a rock which wrecks a navy? Do not little strokes fell lofty oaks? Will not continual droppings wear away stones? Sin, a little thing? It girded the Redeemer's head with thorns, and pierced his heart! It made him suffer anguish, bitterness, and woe. Could you weigh the least sin in the scales of eternity, you would fly from it as from a serpent, and abhor the least appearance of evil. Look upon all sin as that which crucified the Saviour, and you will see it to be "exceeding sinful."
Evening
"Thou shalt be called, Sought out." - Isaiah 62:12
The surpassing grace of God is seen very clearly in that we were not only sought, but sought out. Men seek for a thing which is lost upon the floor of the house, but in such a case there is only seeking, not seeking out. The loss is more perplexing and the search more persevering when a thing is sought out. We were mingled with the mire: we were as when some precious piece of gold falls into the sewer, and men gather out and carefully inspect a mass of abominable filth, and continue to stir and rake, and search among the heap until the treasure is found. Or, to use another figure, we were lost in a labyrinth; we wandered hither and thither, and when mercy came after us with the gospel, it did not find us at the first coming, it had to search for us and seek us out; for we as lost sheep were so desperately lost, and had wandered into such a strange country, that it did not seem possible that even the Good Shepherd should track our devious roamings. Glory be to unconquerable grace, we were sought out! No gloom could hide us, no filthiness could conceal us, we were found and brought home. Glory be to infinite love, God the Holy Spirit restored us!

The lives of some of God's people, if they could be written would fill us with holy astonishment. Strange and marvellous are the ways which God used in their case to find his own. Blessed be his name, he never relinquishes the search until the chosen are sought out effectually. They are not a people sought today and cast away to-morrow. Almightiness and wisdom combined will make no failures, they shall be called, "Sought out!" That any should be sought out is matchless grace, but that we should be sought out is grace beyond degree! We can find no reason for it but God's own sovereign love, and can only lift up our heart in wonder, and praise the Lord that this night we wear the name of "Sought out."

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.

Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?


January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)

Editorials will appear in the "History in a Year by the Conservative Voice" series, starting with August, September, October, or at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/1482020262/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_dVHPub0MQKDZ4 The kindle version is cheaper, but the soft back version allows a free kindle version.
