Riven, at War


 
Everywhere but this quiet place was in chaos, it sometimes felt. With the constant news of thousands, or tens of thousands, killed in Iran. Of the violent clashes on the streets of Sydney with pro-Palestinian marches and footage of police punching and abusing protestors. 

In those heightened scenes, familiar to anti-vaxxers and anti-lockdown protestors but essentially unfamiliar to the left, whose protests, on climate change or racism, normally jelled perfectly with government agendas and provided a cause célèbre 
to push their laws through parliament.

Even then. Even now. The wind whipping up a disturbance. The police repeatedly bashing prone protestors, pepper spraying people straight in the face, doing the bidding of a government doing the bidding of a Jewish lobby, and the government generated notion of social cohesion smashed into the concrete. 

Social cohesion: Nothing could be further from the truth. Riven from one end to the other with mass migration, the Indian Inundation as it was being called, the Australia of Old was already a distant memory. 

We were prone bewildered. The secrets laid bare. Old Alex had just become the grandfather to identical twin boys. The mystery of DNA buoyed the ancient spirits, who were laughing and joking up there along the clifftops, and the darkness that swept across a decaying country, those shocking shopping malls, the state of the population, all of it now surrendered to a steady stream of insults.

For much of what was happening was an insult to the existing residents, to the people whose forebears had fought for and built modern Australia, and to the intelligence of the left wing mobs that dominated government and academe and general public discourse. Until the inconsistencies became too obvious, anything was possible, and driven by despair and salvation, they took to the streets. 

And the secrets were exposed, as they should be, and the world became as one; riven, at war.

THE WEST REPORT

"Thank you friends" NSW Premier Chris Minns told Israel supporters to warm applause at the ICC dinner in Sydney. While, nearby, at the Sydney rally against Israel President Isaac Herzog, his police were about to attack peace protestors. We dissect perhaps the most ugly unprovoked attack in the history of Australian policing and the biased media reporting which is now trying to whitewash it. It should be said that the blame for the pro-Israel media circus lies, not with the reporters, but the bosses. It lies in the framing of the stories, the agendas, the headlines, the placement.

‘From Gadigal to Gaza, globalise the intifada!’ This cry rang out on Monday night at an angry protest in central Sydney (trendily-named Gadigal by radical Aboriginal activists). But it wasn’t simply the chant of an angry pro-Palestine mob. The firebrand demagogue who spat out this invective, which proceeded a violent protest against the visit to Sydney of Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, was no ordinary activist. She was Grace Tame, the 2021 recipient of one of Australia’s highest public honours: Australian of the Year.

Nothing says cohesion like a punch in the head: Violence of Minns’ goons exposes the lie of ‘social cohesion’

NSW Police’s actions against protesters in in Sydney was about the powerful dictating the terms of free speech — through state-sanctioned violence if necessary.

It Began

Image
  It began in cyclonic circumstance, with the wind whipping off Bondi Beach as he struggled through a gale up and down the beachfront. There was no life. The bars were all closed or closing. There were few people about. The gale was a dark force, or remained dark within him, as he fled sanity and constellations of connected intelligences and instead buried himself in the ordinary, a collapsed individual seeking abnegation.  It was hard to know what brought it on; although the Sense8 style hiding from other operatives was always a part of it.  He could hear them echoing in the land beneath the escarpment, propelled from the deep spirits of the forest, caring for what he did not know.  He really did not know. He moped around the house and lamented getting older, more ordinary, more convinced of deceit and abnegation and ordinary things; longing for purpose or confidence or identity, or just youthful determination. He prayed for courage, strength and determination, and ...

Fraud: Clamouring Dissent

Image
  Foul beasts stalked the Earth. Australia became the kingdom of liars. Dissent was quashed. Fraud was everywhere. The government lied, the politicians lied, the intelligence agencies lied, and deceit permeated every aspect of everybody's life. Taxed into oblivion, taxed into servitude, modern day slavery, overwhelmed by strangers, forced out of affordable accommodation, he'll be lucky to afford a van by the time we're finished with him, the cruel hoax these people represented was literally everywhere. A sharp dagger rammed up through their guts and disembowelled them. A sharp bird flew overhead, squawking with piercing eyes, knowing too much and avenging strangers.  The sacred and the profane. We are all guilty, chanted the Christians, while the spirits swirled in indifference, and time flowed over all of them. It was the injustice, and it was the dishonesty, it was the deceit, and it was the blatant fraud perpetuated by taxpayer entities, that's what got to him. MAINS...

Sensory Deprivation

Image
  Under attack from some of the most corrupt elements within the Australian government, or that's how it felt, he had no idea how to deal with the torment being inflicted upon him. They were dishonest. They were liars. They had gained advantage through their lying. They had been tormenting him for three years now. It had begun at exactly the same time as his mother was dying a sad sad death made worse by the Australian government's endless Covid restrictions.  And it continued to this very day, chasing him across Asia. It was his 73rd birthday. And they were determined to destroy even that. Cloak yourself in armour. Be strong. Be brave. Let the storm pass over you.  How was it that these things could be allowed? How was it that this dishonesty ran rampant through the system? Surrounded by the buzz of an Asian city, he ran into an old acquaintance, Robyn, who had been stranded in Australia for three years during the Covid era. And that's what he said about Australia, it wa...
