Fri 26th November 2021 Current Affairs

My name is David Daniel Ball and I am Voice DDB dot locals dot com a voice of freedom supporting freedom around the world for all peoples. I write on historical and current affairs. I look for the conservative voice where mainstream media eschews it. Around the world media espouses liberalism orthodoxy and proclaims a history of liberalism that never happened. Liberalism of today is based on repeated lies that have been accepted from the past.

Consider these recent truths

Kyle Rittenhouse has been found not guilty by a jury. 


Following the verdict, mainstream press doubled down on lies which resulted in further riots.


It is unclear if defamation of Rittenhouse will ever be addressed


It is unclear if prosecutorial misconduct will ever be addressed


Words have power, but they should have meaning too. 


Viva Frie summarised the denunciations of Rittenhouse as Kyle being a White Supremacist active shooter who had shot black men at a BLM protest. It might also be worth adding the meme that Rittenhouse was driven by his mum across state lines to do it. It was illegal for Rittenhouse to own the gun he used. 


Following the media, one might not know the following truths


Rittenhouse is mixed race and the people he shot were all white with lengthy criminal records. 


Rittenhouse’ family are located in Kenosha and he grew up there. His mother’s home, ‘across the state border’ was a mile away, and closer than where one of Rittenhouse’s so called victims who lived in Kenosha was in relation to the riots that night. 


The so called BLM protest was a riot where police had withdrawn protection and businesses were stripped and torched. One such business owner, noting Rittenhouse was present, giving first aid to people, as he had wanted to become a nurse or policeman, and that was a practical application, had asked him and some friends to be on hand to protect their business. 


The sole survivor of the three Rittenhouse shot was illegally armed, while Rittenhouse was entitled to the rifle he carried. Many people at the riot carried rifles. 


Rittenhouse ran to rioters calling “friendly, friendly” so as to administer first aid during the meeting. 


Rittenhouse did not point his gun as to threaten. One person claimed he had, and the prosecutor seized on Rittenhouse’s answer which did not affirm that. Witnesses admitted Rittenhouse had maintained the gun pointed down. 


When Rittenhouse was confronted by rioters he ran and they chased him. When Rittenhouse fell, he was attacked by rioters. One kicked Rittenhouse in the face. Rittenhouse did not shoot them. One died after they tried to take Rittenhouse’ gun. One died after hitting Rittenhouse on the head with a skateboard. The survivor had attempted to run up to Rittenhouse and kill him by emptying his illegal firearm into Rittenhouse. Rittenhouse shot him before he could. At trial, after asking for ten million dollars for testifying, the survivor gave evidence that Rittenhouse only shot him after he charged him and pointed his gun at Rittenhouse. 


The FBI had recorded events using a drone. The prosecution were given better detailed drone vision than the defence. The prosecution had not passed on details of witnesses exculpatory for Rittenhouse. The prosecution made claims about Rittenhouse which were known to be untrue, or irrelevant, which were parroted by media. 


The prosecution had had two theories of what Rittenhouse had done that evening, which contradicted. One theory was that Rittenhouse had gone to kill people with his rifle. Another was that Rittenhouse had defended himself disproportionately. It turns out neither theory was right. 


The media memes of Rittenhouse being crazed and murderous, spread by Biden, trickling down through Democrat agency, through the FBI and DOJ, through irrelevant offices like the NYC mayor, seem to have been fed by the prosecutor. Why else should so many separate news agencies report on the faux ‘crossing state lines’? 


The trial for Rittenhouse is over. But the trial for USA to reclaim justice is not.

Today is a big day for trials. 

In 164 BC, Judas Maccabeus, son of Mattathias of the Hasmonean family, restored the Temple in Jerusalem. This event was commemorated each year by the festival of Hanukkah. In 1877, Thomas Edison announced his invention of the phonograph, a machine that can record and play sound. In 1894, Port Arthur, Manchuriafell to the Japanese, a decisive victory of the First Sino-Japanese War, after which Japanese troops were accused of the massacre of the remaining inhabitants of the city. In 1902, the Philadelphia Football Athletics defeated the Kanaweola Athletic Club of Elmira, New York, 39-0, in the first ever professional American football night game. In 1905, Albert Einstein's paper, "Does the Inertia of a Body Depend Upon Its Energy Content?", is published in the journal Annalen der Physik. This paper reveals the relationship between energy and mass. This leads to the mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc². In 1927, Columbine Mine massacreStriking coal miners were allegedly attacked with machine guns by a detachment of state police dressed in civilian clothes. In 1953, the British Natural History Museum announced that the "Piltdown Manskull, initially believed to be one of the most important fossilised hominid skulls ever found, was a hoax. In 1959, American disc jockey Alan Freed, who had popularised the term "rock and roll" and music of that style, was fired from WABC-AM radio for refusing to deny allegations that he had participated in the payola scandal. In 1985, United States Navy intelligence analyst Jonathan Pollard was arrested for spying after being caught giving Israel classified information on Arab nations. He was subsequently sentenced to life in prison.In 2006, anti-Syrian Lebanese Minister and MP Pierre Gemayel was assassinated in suburban Beirut.


From 2013

ABC pays 1 percenters to tell their viewers what to think. Now that has been revealed, the boss of the ABC wants an investigation. The ABC boss, who feels it is balanced to drown poor people who are desperate for asylum so long as the ALP appears compassionate, who is also willing to reveal any secret to embarrass the Libs even if it isn't about them, is paid twice as much as the ASIO boss who works impartially to protect all Australians. When you look at the 'talent' supporting the ALP, you can see they need lots of help. Young people should not drink any alcohol. Older people should not drink much alcohol. But what reason can be given for how ALP decides on policy? Chatham house rules doesn't quite cover it. 


Race hate laws aren't working. Kudos to the Jewish council of Australia on their statement regarding the Armenian genocide, but also that council is wrong to support these bad race laws. The laws don't protect Jewish peoples from harm, but do protect terrorists from criticism. The persecution of Bolt was a travesty of justice. 


From 2014  

Greens hypocritical in their support of US warming deal with China. The deal is not secure, as Australia's direct action policy is which Greens oppose. The US and China hope to achieve their ends by employing power substitutes the Greens will not accept in Australia, from fracking and nuclear. 


The federal government (in Australia) had legislation that was in the interests of consumers of superannuation, but opposed by Unions. Unions were given access to management of Superannuation by Paul Keating so as to compensate them for lost membership, as very few workers these days join with unions. However, the unions and banks have developed superannuation products that customers would not choose if they were aware of choice. Unions and banks have provided advisers to consumers who have a duty to their employers, not the consumers. The legislation would have given advisers independence, providing better, informed choice to consumers. Independent senator Xenophon, Motorist Muir and PUP Lambie have backflipped over the deal and scuttled the legislation, meaning vested interests can behave corruptly. They are doing so, so as to use the legislation as bargaining chip to get the government to compromise on more good legislation. The only way to get good government is to vote conservative. 


ABC find someone willing to criticise the Australian federal government over their climate change policy. The Fishing Minister from Belize. No doubt Belize's public service have kept their minister up to date with the latest. Belize has a population of about 342000. Note, the Minister offered no specifics, merely asking Australia to step up on commitment to negotiation. 


Academics suggest making petrol more expensive to keep poor people off the roads. They argue that fewer people on the roads means fewer deaths. Why not simply ban petrol?


WA food police canvass an idea that children found with chocolate or chips at school would have it confiscated until the end of the school day. No discussion is made regarding the refrigeration of said products. Will they at least promise not to leave the milk in the sun? 


The Age presents a piece on Global Warming attacking Mr Abbott without including facts for balance. They verbal-ed former UK PM Thatcher and neglected to mention vested interests. 


Is feminism merely a push for women to work and not have families? 


University of California, Berkely students show that Nazis have been successful in attracting the left to IS and distancing them from Israel. 


=== from 2015 ===

It is a truth of management that when an employee fails, the management have too. In banks, no one should feel they aren't being watched. Everyone should know if they attempt theft they will be caught. Jonathan Pollard showed the US security administration failed. He had attempted to sell secrets. Nothing like the security breaches of Snowden or Assange, which got people killed around the world for inflaming jihadism. Pollard was mentally weak according to prosecutors, as well as brilliantly duplicitous. They accused him of getting agents killed, until it turned out another CIA agent had done that. But Pollard is Jewish. An abuse of power denied Pollard a legal defence and 30 years have been taken from him. He is released at last. But those responsible for the abuse have power and authority. 


For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.


=== from 2016 ===

IPA Review (Nov 2016) features a Matthew Lesh article on “Australian Tax Mutineers” and it includes the 1927 Queensland farmer’s strike. Queensland had only one non ALP Government between 1915 and 1952. With a small, largely self sufficient population, government couldn’t mess up too badly. Only the ALP had managed to spend too much and tried to raise tax to cover their inept administration. The 1926 Queensland Water Act was an instrument. It involved fees for farmers using their own wells or water pumps. If the property wasn’t adjacent to a river, farmers were in a terrible position. It was a disincentive to improve land and produced costs the couldn’t be passed on to consumers. In 1927, farmers organised a tax strike. The legislation was repealed and the government changed for one term at the next election. Worth thinking about for any state or territory thinking of voting ALP when they have control of the upper house too.  


=== From 2017 ===

Don't give up on hope. Democrat Insurance used to cover so much more. Some fifteen sexual assault allegations involve Bill Clinton and yet MSM don't report on it. But now allegations surface regarding groping by Charlie Rose and the journalist is dropped by his network employer. In Australia, former disgraced parliamentarian Craig Thomson gets a free pass from the union he took member funds from, but the whistleblower, Kathy Jackson, is pursued through the courts. The draining of the sewer has begun, but there is a long way to go. News.com.au, under political editor Malcolm Farr, is claiming the US has not won a war since 1945, and feels Trump may do badly with NK. Almost as if the media want Trump to start a war .. and win it. Like Obama would have done if he could, cf Libya, Syria and Ukraine. 


Less than a week until Queensland faces election. ALP have no credible policy. ALP are divided and have members openly discussing aligning with One Nation, prior to election. LNP offer responsible government. One Nation is popular. Newspapers are saying it should be a strong ALP win. Polls are suggesting it will be tighter. Vote LNP if you want effective public transport, healthy industry, affordable power, effective policing. Vote ALP if you like corruption, are xenophobic and hate anyone profiting if they are the wrong gender or race. 

The culture wars go on, lefties advise that the English Breakfast of Bangers, bacon and eggs are 'bad for the environment.' They also say that children are bad for the environment. They are insane. 

Islamic leader Keysar Trad wants polygamy, but does not want SSM. How does that even work? 

Donald Trump promises huge tax cuts for Christmas and is cheered. Turnbull promises tax cuts for Christmas and it is pointed out he is in fact taxing those people more, according to his own detail.  


=== From 2020 ===

We know who voted for Trump. We saw them. Queues of people with hats and signs and cheering Trump in their thousands all over USA. We have not seen people in great numbers who supported Biden. There is no evidence they have ever existed outside of a riot or a hissy fit by a Democrat partisan election official. 


I watch Dan Bongino on Rumble and heard him on his Rumble cast say Trump should have addressed disloyal swamp creatures sooner. I disagree with it, and might have egg all over my face soon for saying so, but following is my reasoning. Trump has temporised on facing some of the swamp, not hesitated. Late last year, Trump said he was pulling troops out of Syria and was criticised for it severely. But then an ISIS leader stood up and special forces ran him to committing suicide rather than be taken. The operation, a sting masterminded by Trump had not included significant figures within his administration, and sparked a resignation of National Security Adviser Bolton, who had not been in the loop. Imagine the resistance if Trump had opposed more? But now, if Trump politically survives this, the swamp is exposed and has no support from conservatives. I'm reminded of former Premier of Victoria Jeff Kennett who had led a successful conservative government and had a crash or crash through election which he lost. Had Kennett won, he had clear air for a long time, but having lost Victoria is where the US will be if Biden is allowed to cheat a win. 


Trump cycle has it Trump is on his knees, before ... Media is cheering expected partisan court decisions to not support inquiry into voting fraud. However, they overstate the meaning of the shortfalls. The Trump campaign to have their electoral win restored was never going to be straightforward. They have the evidence. It points to multiple elections and undermines the credibility of US Democracy. Ultimately, aspects of it will be decided by SCOTUS. We do not yet know how SCOTUS will decide, or even what exact evidence they will face. But we know the evidence is substantial, and in an effort to suppress the will of conservative resistance, media are claiming that the evidence is not substantive and so the evidence is yet to be addressed. Maybe there is a good reason for a CIA asset being deployed to fraudulently control the US election. Let us hear what it is.


It is apparent that Dems committed fraud to steal the 2020 election. They may well have done similar in 2016. In 2016, Fox declared Pennsylvania early to HRC. The demand was made for Trump to concede. Trump won in 2016, but it surprised the establishment that did similar in their voter suppression as they have done in 2020. HRC had organised a victory party, but blessed marching vagina instead. Even her book did not say what happened. Trump has been very good at mobilising ordinary, decent Americans to support him in numbers greater than any GOP ever. Trump does not court race, or gender, like his racist, bigoted opposition have. Yet Trump has extraordinary minority support for a GOP, possibly the highest since Eleanor Roosevelt courted the Black vote as her husband exploited them. The Dem voting pattern and issues echo the Obama wins too. How long have Dems been using these fraudulent methods to obtain votes? Did they use them to bodgy the 2006 mid terms? It is not that the mysterious support of vapour for Dems is so clearly fraudulent, but, other than violent rioters, and #FakeNews, where is their support, really? How come there is no policy platform for Democrats? Why does Big Tech have to censor the truth? How many millions of Trump supporting votes have been given to Biden? The corruption is so apparent, and so pervasive, that if Trump concedes 2020, he will be conceding all elections that follow, and the flame of liberty will be extinguished in America. 


We have hope. It is incumbent on us to win back the freedom denied us. And to protect that freedom. We will do that democratically. We will take back our legislature. We will get our courts to return to protecting our constitution.

I have lost everything several times. And yet here I am. Behind me is an Australian flag and a MAGA cap. On my MAGA cap is an American flag. I will die, one day. But, I pledge allegiance to the flag (of Australia and) the United States of America. And to the republics for which they stand. One nation. Indivisible. Under God. With liberty, and justice, for all.

We are being lied to. But not by everyone. Our nations and their justice machinery are not broken, but damaged. Things are bad, but they are supposed to be bad, rather than merely breaking. We can't give up. We must reject the liars, and remove them from public office, and prosecute them lawfully. Things can get better, but we must persevere or risk losing hope. We must not fight the Devil by playing the Devil's game. Rather we must resist the Devil by being free. There is no law against doing what is right. Their utter depravity kills us. They target us and they seek to restrain us. But while the greatest among us a hundred years ago has died, their legacy has not. That which we are, we are. Lockdowns were ineffective in dealing with COVID. Effective medication has been denied whole populations. Herd immunity will prevail. Fraud deleteriously affected recent elections around the world. But, Democracy will prevail. Our oppressors will pass. For us to win, we must assert our freedoms. For us to lose, we must willingly surrender our freedoms forever. Our children will have to pay back our debt. We must sacrifice now so that they can. That means telling truth to power. That means pointing up when when some get confused and lose their way. Stand by the one who sacrificed their pension and freedoms to speak out. Prosecute the ones forgiven by a debauched and self interested administration. Vote for those who help you exercise your freedom. Don't wait for free speech. Exercise free speech.

Intro to Locals.com

My name is David Daniel Ball I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence. 

I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections. 

I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. I had reported the issue responsibly and had not known I'd blown the whistle. The embarrassed left wing government had responded by imposition of a nationwide ban on the use of peanut butter in canteens, despite failing to address the issue of peanut allergy appropriately. 

I've been de-platformed on Facebook and twitter despite not being an activist. Twitter did not like me asking for Obama to face justice in 2011. FB gave no specific reason for removing me following Jan 6th 2021 in Washington DC where a policeman killed an unarmed woman, so a crowd would know he was in control.

From the Bible, 1 Peter 2

Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.

The Living Stone and a Chosen People

As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him— you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says:

“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
    a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in him
    will never be put to shame.”

Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe,

“The stone the builders rejected
    has become the cornerstone,”

and,

“A stone that causes people to stumble
    and a rock that makes them fall.”

They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for.

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

Living Godly Lives in a Pagan Society

Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.

Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right. For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people. Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor.

Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God. But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

“He committed no sin,
    and no deceit was found in his mouth.”

When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly. “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

Here is a video I made "Something So Right"
"Something So Right" is a song by Paul Simon. It was originally featured on his 1973 album There Goes Rhymin' Simon. In 1995, the song was recorded by British singer Annie Lennox for her album Medusa. Later that year, Lennox re-recorded the track as a duet with Paul Simon, and it was released as a single, reaching no.44 on the UK charts.

It is not that the mysterious support of vapour for Dems is so clearly fraudulent, but, other than violent rioters, and #FakeNews, where is their support, really? How come there is no policy platform for Democrats? Why does Big Tech have to censor the truth? How many millions of Trump supporting votes have been given to Biden? The corruption is so apparent, and so pervasive, that if Trump concedes 2020, he will be conceding all elections that follow, and the flame of liberty will be extinguished in America.

Remember Joe Biden and Ukraine



Remember ABBOTT and COSTELLO? Hope you enjoy this one. In today's world, Bud ABBOTT and Lou COSTELLO's famous sketch "Who's on first?" might have turned out something like this:

COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT . . . .

ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?
COSTELLO: Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den and I'm thinking about buying a computer.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: No, the name's Lou.
ABBOTT: Your computer?
COSTELLO: I don't own a computer. I want to buy one.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: I told you, my name's Lou.
ABBOTT: What about Windows?
COSTELLO: Why? Will it get stuffy in here?
ABBOTT: Do you want a computer with Windows?
COSTELLO: I don't know. What will I see when I look in the windows?
ABBOTT: Wallpaper.
COSTELLO: Never mind the windows. I need a computer and software.
ABBOTT: Software for Windows?
COSTELLO: No. On the computer! I need something I can use to write proposals, track expenses and run my business. What have you got?
ABBOTT: Office.
COSTELLO: Yeah, for my office. Can you recommend anything?
ABBOTT: I just did.
COSTELLO: You just did what?
ABBOTT: Recommend something.
COSTELLO: You recommended something?
ABBOTT: Yes.
COSTELLO: For my office?
ABBOTT: Yes.
COSTELLO: OK, what did you recommend for my office?
ABBOTT: Office.
COSTELLO: Yes, for my office!
ABBOTT: I recommend Office with Windows.
COSTELLO: I already have an office with windows! OK, lets just say I'm sitting at my computer and I want to type a proposal. What do I need?
ABBOTT: Word.
COSTELLO: What word?
ABBOTT: Word in Office.
COSTELLO: The only word in office is office.
ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows.
COSTELLO: Which word in office for windows?
ABBOTT: The Word you get when you click the blue "W".
COSTELLO: I'm going to click your blue "w" if you don't start with some straight answers. OK, forget that. Can I watch movies on the Internet?
ABBOTT: Yes, you want Real One.
COSTELLO: Maybe a real one, maybe a cartoon. What I watch is none of your business. Just tell me what I need!
ABBOTT: Real One.
COSTELLO: If it's a long movie I also want to see reel 2, 3 & 4. Can I watch them?
ABBOTT: Of course.
COSTELLO: Great! With what?
ABBOTT: Real One.
COSTELLO: OK, I'm at my computer and I want to watch a movie. What do I do?
ABBOTT: You click the blue "1".
COSTELLO: I click the blue one what?
ABBOTT: The blue "1".
COSTELLO: Is that different from the blue w?
ABBOTT: The blue "1" is Real One and the blue "W" is Word.
COSTELLO: What word?
ABBOTT: The Word in Office for Windows.
COSTELLO: But there's three words in "office for windows!"
ABBOTT: No, just one. But it's the most popular Word in the world.
COSTELLO: It is?
ABBOTT: Yes, but to be fair, there aren't many other Words left. It pretty much wiped out all the other Words out there.
COSTELLO: And that word is real one?
ABBOTT: Real One has nothing to do with Word. Real One isn't even part of Office.
COSTELLO: STOP! Don't start that again. What about financial bookkeeping? You have anything I can track my money with?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: That's right. What do you have?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: I need money to track my money?
ABBOTT: It comes bundled with your computer
COSTELLO: What's bundled with my computer?
ABBOTT: Money.
COSTELLO: Money comes with my computer?
ABBOTT: Yes. No extra charge.
COSTELLO: I get a bundle of money with my computer? How much?
ABBOTT: One copy.
COSTELLO: Isn't it illegal to copy money?
ABBOTT: Microsoft gave us a license to copy money.
COSTELLO: They can give you a license to copy money?
ABBOTT: Why not? THEY OWN IT!

A FEW DAYS LATER . .

ABBOTT: Super Duper computer store. Can I help you?
COSTELLO: How do I turn my computer off?
ABBOTT: Click on "START".

Don't give up on hope. The vote in Queensland is not finalised. We don't know if ALP have majority or minority government. Either way, they will not find much opposition to disgraceful behaviour, except by LNP. Only a vote for LNP offers a conservative vision for the electorate. Press have scrambled the message, as they do, and there are calls for the sacking of the LNP leader, but there will be a leadership spill as is routine following a loss. No matter how competent a conservative, they must cut through, and that means the press will hate them. Abbott is the right model, Turnbull is the wrong model. The Queensland result illustrates yet again that Turnbull must be removed from the Liberal Party's leadership.

Press are crowing One Nation did not make the impact expected. In fact, they have undermined the conservative vote despite an appallingly bad Queensland Government that had delivered the highest power costs in the nation, taking the title from South Australia and Victoria, where Dan Andrews desperately wants that title. 

Judges in Australia seem reluctant to offer the biggest sentences available for convicted criminals. Partly the Australian system of justice is to blame with rewards for pleas or social justice issues. So a fat terrorist supporter who directs welfare to support IS might avoid a custodial sentence. To be fair on judges, they probably like to be popular. Bernie Sanders is front runner to oppose Trump in 2020 for Democrats. Sanders wrote in 1972 "A woman enjoys intercourse with her man-while fantasising about being raped simultaneously by 3 men." #FeelTheBern . 
=== from 2016 ===
Thanksgiving 2016 has given us a gift with the untimely death of Fidel Castro. The former Cuban dictator was not just responsible for the deaths of many Cubans, he exploited the Cold War and incompetence of JFK and was a thorn in the side of successive administrations of Presidents of the United States. Rumour had Castro behind the assassination of JFK, but the likely truth was that JFK was killed by an accidental discharge of a secret service gun. Lee Harvey Oswald was probably a KGB agent who couldn’t believe his luck as he cowered in a movie theatre. The Cuban missile Crisis was the high point in world affairs for Castro, where he almost succeeded in ending the world by nuclear conflict. The only thing preventing war was the bravery of US servicemen in the face of indomitable stupidity of JFK, and a statesmanlike Khrushchev in charge of the Soviet Union who had had to directly work with Castro. Khrushchev was rolled as a result. But after the Bay of Pigs and depravity of Che Guevara, Castro’s world influence waned. Cuba was left a broken basket case as communism collapsed world wide. Only North Korea and a compromised Chinese administration embracing some trade freedoms remain. Fidel’s brother will follow. And one day, a better Cuba will leave behind the corrupt and murderous excuse of government communism bestows.
=== from 2015 ===
Obama has been playing a sick game where he protects some jihadists. Russia has been attacking them in Syria. One jihadist camp is located close to Turkey to provide air cover. A Russian fighter is shot down by Turkey, allegedly for flying through Turkish airspace. Turkey's action is a breach of international law. US journalists, keen to protect Obama, claim that the jihadist camp is a refugee camp which Russia kept targeting. Nothing is produced to verify such claims, suggesting Obama was born there. However, we know the ground was so hostile that one pilot and one rescue helicopter pilot were killed by these so called refugees in a peaceful zone which Russia 'should not have attacked.' Just as with Ukraine, Obama has over reached and exposed the world. And journalists protect him with their mantra of not understanding. 

For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
From 2014  
Phil Hughes is still fighting for his life after being hit by a cricket ball during a match. Only twenty five years old, his potential loss to the sport is a terrible blow and all matches have been called off while administrators and players work out how to move forward. God loves you and has blessed you, Phil. May he hold you now, but return you healed. 

Daniel Andrews' plan for Victoria is to make it corrupt. He wants to sack Ambulance but take away legal shackles preventing union corruption. 

Clive Palmer has said he is the victim of an international conspiracy. Julia Gillard's defence that her word is better than an honest person's has been denied by a judge. 

The NRL have a history of failing the public and players. They were very quick to side with then Minister Jason Clare over the ASADA accusations that were demonstrably untrue on all points, where the players had been accused of taking performance enhancing drugs and wide scale endemic cheating. The NRL were equivocal in their support of Manly Captain Stewart over a rape allegation. Some ARL idiot thought excessive drinking was acceptable by players, and so a drunken Stewart had no defence against the allegation until the girl was medically examined. Now, the ARL have found a young man who had pled guilty to domestic abuse and had been judged to have been remorseful and rehabilitated, and they sack him faster than the ABC would a low paid regional worker. Maybe Auva'a will take up a real sport like AFL. 

All the commercial news media organisations have made cuts in recent years because of falling revenue from advertising as most of their work goes online for free. And now the ABC are being asked to make an efficiency dividend of only 5% and it fails. ABC protects the inept and cuts instead regional service which is its reason for being. And then ABC redirects the regional resources to compete with commercial companies in areas that aren't part of the ABC charter. One such online offering, Buzzfeed, is complaining of the cuts and the mental anguish felt by those competing for jobs with their colleagues. Tim Blair brilliantly describes the mercenary process made challenging by incompetent management. The ABC is not biased, but she is partisan, and fighting viciously those she is supposed to also support. 
From 2013
ALP love media are confused. Prior to the election, Libs promised no worse deal than the ALP. It turns out the ALP had cut spending buried in their documents. Libs will proceed, and love media are calling it a broken election promise and Lib cut. Even were that true, no program which will be cut for not being funded is essential. All essential programs are paid for. All that might happen is some teachers will have to do what they are paid for. The world will not end. But the ALP love media are confused. 

Paul Barry is paid for his credibility. He is now on three month vacation. Maybe he will learn to read? Great tyres are worth the cost. More on the slaves to marxism. I am waiting for Andrew to pay me. ABC fact checkers mistake on fact. Abbott solves ALP problems. AGW hysteria dying more slowly than Iago in Othello. Jenna Price gets snippy. Mark Scott, ABC guy, should resign.

An argument has been made claiming that Israel is partly responsible for some of the terrorist activity against it. The argument employed scans to the ignorant eye. A person who knew little, might feel it is balanced and Israel may in fact bear some responsibility. The truth is simple, that Israel is exemplary as a modern democratic nation deserving a prosperous future. But the lie excusing the atrocities committed by generations of terrorists is tempting to the ignorant because the alternative is that the ignorant have been complicit. And they have been. Ignorant people are responsible for terrorist activity. Including the Christians who become victims and some left wing Jews. Calling Iran's attempt to make an atom bomb 'peaceful' will not make it so. One of the few positives I can see from the agreement is that there is apparently bipartisan support (in the US) opposing it. Kerry isn't Neville Chamberlain. Chamberlain was a conservative who chose a path of least resistance because he didn't anticipate evil. Kerry is duplicitous. Kerry supports a socialist ideal. Israel doesn't fit in that ideal.

Today's Old Testament reading: Ezekiel 24-26

Jerusalem as a Cooking Pot
1 In the ninth year, in the tenth month on the tenth day, the word of the LORD came to me: 2 “Son of man, record this date, this very date, because the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day. 3 Tell this rebellious people a parable and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says:
“‘Put on the cooking pot; put it on
and pour water into it.
4 Put into it the pieces of meat,
all the choice pieces—the leg and the shoulder.
Fill it with the best of these bones;
5 take the pick of the flock.
Pile wood beneath it for the bones;
bring it to a boil
and cook the bones in it.
6 “‘For this is what the Sovereign LORD says:
“‘Woe to the city of bloodshed,
to the pot now encrusted,
whose deposit will not go away!
Take the meat out piece by piece
in whatever order it comes....

Today's New Testament reading: 1 Peter 2

1 Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. 2 Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.
The Living Stone and a Chosen People
4 As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him— 5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For in Scripture it says:

“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame....”

Morning

"To preach deliverance to the captives."
Luke 4:18
None but Jesus can give deliverance to captives. Real liberty cometh from him only. It is a liberty righteously bestowed; for the Son, who is Heir of all things, has a right to make men free. The saints honour the justice of God, which now secures their salvation. It is a liberty which has been dearly purchased. Christ speaks it by his power, but he bought it by his blood. He makes thee free, but it is by his own bonds. Thou goest clear, because he bare thy burden for thee: thou art set at liberty, because he has suffered in thy stead. But, though dearly purchased, he freely gives it. Jesus asks nothing of us as a preparation for this liberty. He finds us sitting in sackcloth and ashes, and bids us put on the beautiful array of freedom; he saves us just as we are, and all without our help or merit. When Jesus sets free, the liberty is perpetually entailed; no chains can bind again. Let the Master say to me, "Captive, I have delivered thee," and it is done forever. Satan may plot to enslave us, but if the Lord be on our side, whom shall we fear? The world, with its temptations, may seek to ensnare us, but mightier is he who is for us than all they who be against us. The machinations of our own deceitful hearts may harass and annoy us, but he who hath begun the good work in us will carry it on and perfect it to the end. The foes of God and the enemies of man may gather their hosts together, and come with concentrated fury against us, but if God acquitteth, who is he that condemneth? Not more free is the eagle which mounts to his rocky eyrie, and afterwards outsoars the clouds, than the soul which Christ hath delivered. If we are no more under the law, but free from its curse, let our liberty be practically exhibited in our serving God with gratitude and delight. "I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds." "Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?"

Evening


"For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion."
Romans 9:15
In these words the Lord in the plainest manner claims the right to give or to withhold his mercy according to his own sovereign will. As the prerogative of life and death is vested in the monarch, so the Judge of all the earth has a right to spare or condemn the guilty, as may seem best in his sight. Men by their sins have forfeited all claim upon God; they deserve to perish for their sins--and if they all do so, they have no ground for complaint. If the Lord steps in to save any, he may do so if the ends of justice are not thwarted; but if he judges it best to leave the condemned to suffer the righteous sentence, none may arraign him at their bar. Foolish and impudent are all those discourses about the rights of men to be all placed on the same footing; ignorant, if not worse, are those contentions against discriminating grace, which are but the rebellions of proud human nature against the crown and sceptre of Jehovah. When we are brought to see our own utter ruin and ill desert, and the justice of the divine verdict against sin, we no longer cavil at the truth that the Lord is not bound to save us; we do not murmur if he chooses to save others, as though he were doing us an injury, but feel that if he deigns to look upon us, it will be his own free act of undeserved goodness, for which we shall forever bless his name.
How shall those who are the subjects of divine election sufficiently adore the grace of God? They have no room for boasting, for sovereignty most effectually excludes it. The Lord's will alone is glorified, and the very notion of human merit is cast out to everlasting contempt. There is no more humbling doctrine in Scripture than that of election, none more promotive of gratitude, and, consequently, none more sanctifying. Believers should not be afraid of it, but adoringly rejoice in it.

=== Message ===

===

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.
