Whenever the Liberals attack @AlboMP for the shortage of fuel, remember this: when Labor lost in 2013 we had 7 refineries. Over the life of the Liberal government (2013 to 2022) 5 were closed, leaving just 2. Breathtaking hypocrisy by @AngusTaylorMP and the Coalition.

Aboriginals have served at a higher rate per capita than European Australians in every major war, Yet not one Victoria cross has been awarded to an Aboriginal soldier.

The loony right blame Albo for Trump's fuel crisis and then attack him for going to Singapore (our largest trade partner in south-east Asia worth $48bn annually) ... to secure more fuel. Beyond help!

The Greens will fight Labor's cuts to the NDIS. Labor wants to cut the NDIS instead of taxing gas exports or the 1% as they think the disability community is an easy target. They’re wrong. Disabled people won’t stop fighting for basic rights, and the Greens will back them.

Something is really bothering me about the Ben Roberts-Smith case. Nobody likes being a hypocrite. Unlike most, I actually go for a walk when I suspect myself of being one. On one hand, this prosecution stinks of liberal bias. Out of thousands of potential war crimes cases the social justice warrior police chief could have pursued, she picked THE most decorated soldier on the entire continent. That isn’t justice. That’s a public humiliation ritual. On the other hand, I do believe actual war criminals should stand trial regardless of rank or honors. And I know what’s coming: “John, Roberts-Smith already lost the 2023 defamation case. Justice Besanko found he committed the murders.” Yes. On the balance of probabilities. 51 percent. That’s the civil standard. Criminal conviction requires 99 percent. The same fragile evidence that barely cleared a coin flip is now supposed to send a man to prison for life. Here’s why my post is not hypocrisy. When the school got hit in Iran weeks ago, I said mistakes aren’t war crimes, but if it was intentional or grossly negligent, someone should be court-martialed. That strike is recent. Physical. Investigable. The Roberts-Smith allegations are 20 years old. And here’s what the Brereton Inquiry, for all its 510 witnesses & four years of work, could never get: No crime scene access. The Taliban didn’t let investigators into Uruzgan. No Afghan witnesses interviewed. No secured scene. No blood-spatter analysis. No DNA No autopsies. No recovered bodies. No weapons tied to victims. The investigators themselves admitted they “lacked access to Afghan crime scenes and were missing the physical evidence that would normally anchor a murder prosecution.” So what’s left? Memory. Twenty-year-old memory from men in the fog of war. The science is unambiguous. Countless research studies confirms memory is reconstructive: later suggestion, media exposure, and repeated questioning distort it. This is the textbook misinformation effect. Confidence and accuracy decouple within months, let alone decades. Studies on soldiers who suffer PTSD show the gaps get even larger. I admittedly don’t know 🇦🇺 law but US courts admit decades-old testimony but warn juries it is inherently fragile, not scientific proof. Australia is treating it as load-bearing concrete. The media says “20 former soldiers testified against him.” Fine. Was all their testimony actually against him? How clear was it? Did 20 people watch him murder a civilian in broad daylight? And even if they did, you still have to prove the dead man wasn’t Taliban. In Uruzgan. In 2009. Without a body. Some will say I’m being pedantic. Yes. I. Am. Because Ben Roberts-Smith was charged with murder, and under war-crimes law the same act can be framed as murder, willful killing, or killing a person hors de combat depending on the framing. How it gets framed sets precedent for every future war. And here’s the question nobody in Canberra wants asked: Why is the trigger-puller in the dock while the officers who wrote the rules of engagement, approved the missions, and signed the after-action reports keep their pensions? The Victoria Cross winner hangs. The chain of command walks. Past “War crime” cases with more hard evidence remain “unsolved” That isn’t accountability. That’s a scapegoat ritual. You do not get a Victoria Cross just for killing. You get it for extraordinary gallantry, valour, self-sacrifice & devotion to duty in the presence of the enemy. And here is what Australia just told every soldier watching: the reward for a VC is fame which will make you a target for future show trials built on 20-year-old memories, prosecuted by a police chief with no combat but more ribbons on her uniform than you. If murder can be proven without hard evidence decades later. That isn’t justice even if he is guilty. Proof of guilt matters. That’s a Marxist humiliation ceremony leading to national strategic disarmament by lawfare.

He won a Victoria Cross, the equivalent of a Medal of Honor, for killing Taliban. Now, two decades later, he’s arrested for killing Taliban. His VC citation: As he approached the structure, Corporal Roberts-Smith identified an insurgent grenadier in the throes of engaging his patrol. Corporal Roberts-Smith instinctively engaged the insurgent at point-blank range resulting in the death of the insurgent. With the members of his patrol still pinned down by the three enemy machine gun positions, he exposed his own position in order to draw fire away from his patrol, which enabled them to bring fire to bear against the enemy. His actions enabled his Patrol Commander to throw a grenade and silence one of the machine guns. Seizing the advantage, and demonstrating extreme devotion to duty and the most conspicuous gallantry, Corporal Roberts-Smith, with a total disregard for his own safety, stormed the enemy position killing the two remaining machine gunners.

No murder weapon. No body. No access to Afghan crime scenes after 15+ years. No forensics, no post-mortems, no projectiles recovered. The witnesses are all battling PTSD, which will get ripped apart in cross-examination. Memory loss, faded combat memories, all the usual side effects and the defence will hammer that hard. And remember, it still has to be proven beyond reasonable doubt. Good luck with that. No jury's going to convict Ben Roberts-Smith on this evidence. And don't get me started on the timing… arresting him right before Anzac Day, in front of his family as he gets off the plane, with the cameras already there waiting like they knew exactly what was coming. Something here really doesn't add up.

I’m really enjoying the supporters of BRS coming out of the woodwork to abuse me today. I’m guessing it’s the same level of person who believes Pauline will be our next PM. Calling me a cunt, retard, looser, sook, poof to name a few just gives me more strength to fight, not less.

With cookers being wholesale manipulated to defend an alleged murdering war criminal (who 21 SAS soldiers testified against) this is very important context. The allegations are not “fog of war” stuff. In cold blood. theklaxon.com.au/7g07

What's truly embarrassing are the people who support Ben Roberts-Smith as if his actions were in fact those of a distinguished war hero Imputation 1: murdered an unarmed defenceless Afghan civilian by kicking him off a cliff Imp 4: Committed murder by pressuring a newly deployed inexperienced soldier to execute an elderly unarmed man in order to "blood the rookie". Imp 5: Commit murder by machine-gunning a man with a proesthetic leg, then celebrating his trophy kill by drinking out of his prosthetic leg He's now being charged for additional murders. Yeah, this sounds like an upstanding Aussie soldier. He's a piece of shit that needs to rot for life behind bars along side his tarnished Victoria cross medal. Maybe look up "defenceless" and "civilian" in his last trial before making shit up about how heroic he was for murdering these people: smh.com.au/interactive/hu…
Demoniaco@DemoniacoASX

This bloodthirsty piece of shit needs to be held to account for executing civilians. A complete stain on the Australian special forces.

@QuentinDempster You Idiot!! We have been in near recession since Alboliar and his extreme leftists took control. Inflation was the highest in the developed world BEFORE Iran was a speckle in Trumps Eyes - 14 interest rate rises under this horrid Liebor government and counting. Wake Up

Get ready for the Recession Australia didn’t have to have: inflation 5%+; mortgage %+; insolvencies up; unemployment up; punitive costs of living. Petrol/diesel rationing maybe by June. Thanks a lot Trump.

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme. The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality. This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme. A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

A teenager repeatedly kicked the seat in front of him, ignoring passengers' requests to stop. Finally, the man reclined his seat, which caused the teenager to be injured by the sudden impact.
