Some years ago, the ABC featured neo-Nazi Blair Cottrell on one of its interminable “panel discussions”. ABC management purported to be so concerned by what Cottrell might say, that they put the program on a ten-second delay. Fast-forward a few years, and they’re giving “pro-Palestine” advocates a national stump
Wow, you guys over the ditch thought you had landed a dud when Nanaia Mahuta finagled the Foreign Minister’s job? BFD readers, I give you Penny Wong. Wong’s plain uselessness at her job is only heightened by the fact that she is supposed to be the brains trust

Has there ever been a more useless, nasty bunch of wreckers in Australia’s parliament than the Albanese government and the Greens? The Greens at least have the poor excuse of being genetically programmed to blindly follow violent extremists, from the founding of the Green movement by ex-Nazis, to the
As naked anti-Semitic hate rages and marches by the tens of thousands in Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland and Wellington, the eagle-eared inquisitors who’ve been able to hear a so-called “dog whistle” at one hundred paces have suddenly gone stone deaf. They’ll know hate when they see it, they say

Let’s stop even pretending that the hateful, useless idiots marching around the world are anything but supporters of the world’s most disgusting terrorist group since ISIS, or the NSDAP. The media and the chattering left can call them ‘pro-Palestine’ all they like, but then, these are the same
Chlöe Swarbrick has apologised after using a pro-Palestinian phrase during a solidarity rally in [Auckland] on Saturday. Swarbrick told Newstalk ZB she apologised “to those who felt as though it has [offended them]”. In other words she’s just sorry that ‘some’ people took offence. Notice also the weasel phrase

There would have been outrage and condemnation then, and it would be remembered as a shameful anti-Semitic incident today. Yet, just such a shameful show of anti-Semitic hate is happening in Melbourne right now.
The atrocities that were committed on October 7th should never be forgotten, and the Israelis have established a brand new website to document the horrors of that day. But there are still many in the Western world that are attempting to deny what happened. Or they are trying to blame
Believe it or not, journalistic ethics exist, even if honoured more in the breach than the observance. Nonetheless, all journalists’ professional bodies have published standards of conduct that their members are supposed to observe. But, despite all that, the line between journalism and activism has become hopelessly blurred. In particular,
There’s been no end of blatherskite from the Hamas-fanciers about “innocent Palestinians”. Which seems to me about as useful as talking about “innocent Germans” in 1944. Which, of course, the socialist hand-wringers did. But, as George Orwell bluntly reminded them, you can’t accept war as a necessary evil
