As The BFD reported recently, accused kidnappers and torturers Mohammad Sharab and Laura Allam are regulars at “pro-Palestine” protests in Melbourne. They’re also whooping it up, Brownshirt-style, on university campuses. At Monash University in Melbourne, students filmed pro-Palestine activist Mohammad Sharab as he swore at Jewish
He can threaten Winston Peters all he likes, but it’s undeniable that former NSW premier and ALP heavyweight Bob Carr is a vocal proponent of Communist China. In fact, the Financial Review in 2018 openly described Carr as “China’s pawn”. Yet, as the Fin Review noted, Carr was
The open-borders leftists love to preen and parade their supposed moral superiority, contrary to all evidence. These insufferable smugsters certainly don’t like being reminded that their virtue-signalling often has appalling consequences for the very people they profess to care so much about. Nowhere more so than when
I grew up in Victoria (don’t judge me, it wasn’t always the way it’s become), and lived through the dark days of the early 90s. Back then, it seemed that hardly a week went by without another economic calamity: the Pyramid building society collapse, the Tricontinental bank
It looks like Chloe Swarbrick is fast running out of threadbare excuses to hide behind: even a bog-standard lefty like Anthony Albanese admits that her favourite genocide chant is “violent” and “has no place on our streets”. Still think it has a place on the streets of Auckland, Chloe?
He’s a busy boy, is Melbourne’s Mohammad Sharab — and he’s rubbing shoulders with the elite of the Melbourne left. Sharab is, of course, on bail for his alleged part in a shocking kidnapping in Melbourne in March. Along with prominent Muslim activist, Laura Allam, Sharab is accused
Whenever Australians have to endure the dreary virtue signals of “Welcome to Country”, it’s highly likely that those waxing solemn about the so-called “world’s oldest living culture” have never had any real exposure to the culture they’re fawning over. Or, indeed, experienced anything other than some
It didn’t take long for the Albanese government to revert to Labor type. For all the hoopla over Treasurer Jim Chalmers’ two budget surpluses, what was ignored is that those were essentially windfall gains — due entirely to an unexpected surge in Chinese demand for iron ore, as well as
The wheels of justice grind slow, indeed. Still, a win against a corrupt, violent police force brutally enforcing unjust laws is a win for freedom, however belated. The only problem is that, in the interim, the fear of a police state is already instilled in the populace. After all, it
Here’s a first: a Muslim prayer room used as a hotbed of extremism. I’m sure that’s never happened before! I mean, it’s not as if places like Roselands Mosque in NSW have ever featured imams preaching, “Allah! Kill the Zionist Jews and purify al-Aqsa from
A newsreel shot during the North Africa campaign of WWII showed the famous Rats of Tobruk frying an egg on the hood of their vehicle. Even today, police on patrol in the Simpson Desert in Western Queensland can do the same. But all that’s a bit too much to
Back in the day, in my home town, a local financial institution collapsed spectacularly, leaving many working people out of pocket. Some of them, their life savings. Taxpayers in my home state were also stiffed nearly a billion dollars. Yet, as everyone in my home town knew, while the former
Many years ago, my wife and I were called to a meeting with the school principal, over an “incident” involving our son. He’d laid out another kid. Except, as it turned out, our son had been repeatedly bullied by the kid, given him plenty of warnings to back off,
History is littered with the corpses left behind by utopian revolutionaries. As Jordan Peterson points out, it’s pointless to condemn the grim toll of, say, the Maoists or the Stalinists, if we don’t forensically examine the ideologies that motivated their crimes and catastrophes. For instance, the Maoists insisted
An author acquaintance of mine recently put out a call for help: she’d been increasingly subject to decidedly creepy inquiries from ‘fans’. Put broadly, these covered everything from questions about her sex life to requests for photos of her young children. At the time, we thought she might have
