Why has the xploitation of fear by the likes of media go unrecognised and unprosecuted by our government? (ODT)

The real danger of the white supremacist fanatics to the Muslim community, stimulated by this exploitation of fear, has not yet been recognised by the authorities.
The New York Times reported that:
There were five white extremist attacks in Australia from 2011 through 2017, all of which were attacks on mosques and Islamic centers.
Experts say the same broad motives are at play whether the target is a mosque in Perth or an asylum seekers’ shelter in Dresden or a synagogue in Pittsburgh. Attackers who identify as white, Christian and culturally European see an attack on their privileged position in the West by immigrants, Muslims and other religious and racial minorities.

Bishop’s mad plan to make Labor’s worst PM king of the world

Link The Australian

How proud an Australian is Bolt? The uni drop out questioning Rudd's qualifications skills and intelligence. Rudd was after all  a senior was in the Australian Diplomatic Service. His wife a shining example of a free marketeer that Bolt admires so much. The family  fits Bolt's definition of Australian  even more than the  Bolt family. Bolt is little more than a shill for NewsCorp misinformation service. So if you go on any of  Bolt's measures Rudd stands head and shoulders above him.   The Rudds are "Team Australia" yet according to Bolt he is their better."It’s ludicrous for Julie Bishop to even consider backing Kevin Rudd’s bid to become UN secretary general, and Malcolm Turnbull should have more sense or guts than to go along with this frolic:"

This isn't by any stretch of the imagination a media man you'd want on your team let alone "Team Australia" because it's obvious all he is a cheer leader for Team Abbott. It's why Abbott's no longer PM but it's obvious his team is still there and has divided the LNP despite losing the team vote. They have never had their eye on Australia's interests only Abbott's and from their disinformation service we have "Bishop, a chronic leaker, seems to have once again briefed against Abbott for this latest report. But why is she drawing attention to her role in arguing for something so clearly wrong?" Bolt

This coming from Andrew Bolt is a joke "How on earth could a Liberal Government support a man with such a record, such a character and such a philosophy? Remember when he claimed he could start a Conservative Party with the snap of his fingers. Rudd's record never criminal Abbott's a long string of apologies dating back to being a student. Character Abbott's is as narrow and un-enticing and the polls showed it. Philosophy extreme to the max Conservative ready to leave his best mates as road kill if they got in his way. Abbott was a destroyer and he loved it. Just look at what he did to his mate Peter Slipper.

Is bringing them here really the cheapest and safest way to help refugees?

Link the Australian

Is Bolt trying to run an economic rationalist argument against Asylum? 1) Who is 'bringing' Asylum seekers here Andrew Bolt? To even suggest that's occurring is false. We have immigration policies . 2. Really?  "If we were still bringing in, say, educated Jewish refugees from Europe those platitudes would be true." Who says the Jews brought here post war were all educated and english speakers? They were working class .Traders, Jewellers Dress makers butchers and bakers small business people. They weren't doctors , dentists teachers and engineers. That unlike Bolt was left to their children children. What a false and ignorant picture Bolt paints of post war immigration here in Australia.  He needs to open a book. The truth is  we brought in much needed  labour and the country boomed. All classes came as did all nationalities but in the main it was a working class explosion. Bolt's father was a public servant and as such added very little to the economy  particularly when you consider his uneducated and elitist son Andrew.He certainly wasn't the free market hero that bolt admires so much.

“They ... have proved to be great contributors to Australian society.”

 Does Bolt really expect us to believe that assisted immigration didn't exist in the past that 90% of post war immigrants received no assistance on arrival. The man has a la la land mind when it comes to Australian History this country was built on forced migration. One way or another it was not America Canada or NZ. It was a settler nation yes but unlike the others there was a reluctance to comr to the other side of the planet. Assisted passage was the norm and necessity the driving force. 

Let's do a Bolt shall we he pulls examples out of the hat in order to to disparage ethnic immigrants against which he has a racial bias. We can do the same to show their journeys of success and there are more of these stories tha the ones Bolt likes to tell.

Bolt's approach to science and statistics has never changed it's always been one of exceptionalism. Find an exception not amongs all of us but among those you are opposed to and then throw wild emotional generalizations  to  prove unwarranted assumptions against them declaring them all potentially the same. Exceptions however  prove the rule  yes against Bolt rather than advance his arguments.  One could just as easily find the heroes among migrant communities. 

 Bolt's examples his exceptions fly in the face of logic but remain a tool for Bolt method of argument. Bolt's argument if applied to him is just as valid  an argument against immigration as any of his. Bolt the son of migrants. He is and extreme right wing ultra racist Neo Nazi so all Dutch must be or have the potential to be. So Bolt's an example of the distorted thinking of his kind allowed into this country and their  extremely divisive Un- Australian nature.

Remember when Bolt cried the reverse of "I do much the same, and wear orange when Holland, my parents’ homeland, plays soccer? No big deal. It’s just sport, and not a real war." When it was a big deal when Goodesy shined during AFL indigenous week. How big a deal was that for Bolt. He went racially ballistic. Bolt's want for Australia is amoebic single celled simplistic creatures as opposed to the reality of a diverse and complex nation whose character is still growing and developing. Toads like want to restrict it and in restricting it create the very tension they claim the want to avoid.

The hounding out of Abbott. Why does the Liberal Left fear him?

Link NewsCorp's Telegrph

A bad smell is a bad smell in anybody's terms it has nothing new to offer.  When the party is over you don't keep it in the corner of the room.What single new idea has Abbott to offer the current government? What refreshing insight has he provided since his demise? Is he working for the Liberal Party, his electorate or just himself? To date it would appear he has been purely self involved but at our expense. He's been doing the Abbott version of a Bronwyn Bishop making money for being Tony Abbott while we go on paying him to be an MP.

"A question for Vanstone: did you likewise demand Malcolm Turnbull quit politics when he lost the Liberal leadership in 2009?" Andrew Bolt

There is a significant difference in losing the Prime-ministership and merely losing party leadership when in opposition that difference doesn't even need explanation. Conservatives  and Bolt being an extreme one, when it comes to media, have an on going history of calling foul and poor us when it comes to the media despite the fact they have the largest private media organization NewsCorp on side. Where has Abbott gone not to give a speech in the US but to talk to and regain favour with Rupert. 

Why do the MSM hate us so much Bolt asks? Not for a second can he be reminded   of the the treatment he and NewsCorp paid Julia Gillard when she was leader of this country. The hate NewsCorp piled on her and joy with which Bolt did it will go down in political media history. The largest private media organization in this country put Abbott up on Cesarar's pedestal and he simply blew it. He fell off  his perch and it was his own doing. 

"If Abbott goes, the contest becomes more a traditional Labor vs Liberal one, with the media always sympathetic to the Left."What a load of bunk. NewsCorp will have to pull out a fresh conservative from the ranks because sure as hell Abbott is not fresh neither are Andrews Abetz or Dutton who Bolt will cry are being treated unfairly.

The party is being hijacked by the majority of it's members according to Bolt who tried to shut any dissenting voice to Abbott down when he was in power. Bolt was calling out traitors the day Abbott won the election he played whack-a mole for 2 years even when there were none. Yes here he is it's always about sides for Bolt not ideas to help the country whack-a mole for the side. Unfortunately he's always sided with the moles. On whose behalf was Abbott working when in the US while being paid by us? His own not even any side. Bolt has a dog in the race.Disunity is death and the Liberals have it in Buckets

John Hewson believes Dyson Heydon should have stepped down because of his messy handling of it all.

The Unions now have a permanent argument that the government generated $80 mill Commission and the Commissioner  are permanently floored and biased. 

Ultimately we have short term politics in preference   to facing long term issues. Two weeks ago Abbott promised to turn the public debate around to jobs and jobs growth. Instead we still keep seeing him concentrating on short term issues in which hes done terribly badly. Week after week he's shown to be out of control.

A them against us

Link News Local, Link News  Corp, Link Census

" And note: I say this without knowing or presuming the ethnicity of those allegedly involved in the latest incident." The last line of Bolt's blog not the first

When Bolt ends blogs with statements like this you can be sure he wants to present purely by innuendo quite the opposite. He is presuming the ethnicity and citizenship of those involved and wants to generalize and disparage an immigrant group. His last line is  merely his escape clause which says "I'm not saying anything but you make up your own mind with my help." Is it vilification of an ethnic group, yes but by stealth.

 
"There is a strong suggestion of an imported us-against-them tribalism in this:"

" A culture that treats police as the enemy even when they help is one that seems both dangerous and foreign. "

There were the most deaths by gun shootings here in Melbourne not so long ago all gang  related no immigrant associations unless Bolt wants to push a point about Italians. Which he doesn't.

 So Bolt selects a single Australian family incident that involved police being called and a cop was punched. That in itself is not unique. Does Bolt know the ethnicity of the cop or whether or not he had a closer connection to what occured no!! This is his incident has been selectively chosen. To be backed up by the worst nonsensical set of statistics ever.

As a statistician Bolt's a retard but he wants a suggested conclusion. So he takes a suburb of Sydney Guildford where the above incident occurred and tells us it had 12 instances of drive-by shootings supposedly equal 5th in Sydney since 2012 or in 4 years.  Auburn 34 and Merrylands 29 However they don't suit the profile  wants to make significant . He wants to connect  Lebanese with gun violence .  Guildford he thinks does that for him.  What do drive bys  prove other than the appearance of some possible gang war going on in a suburb by persons of unknown nationalities or even known residence. Bolt merely wants to suggest it's Lebanese suggest it's local and suggest it's ethnically connected and not just gang related.

 It could be the activity 6 hoons who belong to gangs not even fighting over Guildford turf. It's  statistically insignificant to the demographic Bolt pulls from the census bureau . Drive by crime occurs almost 3 time as much in Auburn and isn't because Bolt doesn't use it. It's not even comparative in any shape or form. 

If a Lebanese owned a burger joint at which there was a lot of trouble Bolt would make sure to tell us there is a lot of gang fights at the Lebanese Burger joint in Guildford and leave us to assume anything but people come from wide and far because it's the best in the surrounding suburbs. He wants us to assume the worst and climb onto his bigoted band waggon

"No, not biased at all. Just repeating Socialist Alternative speaking points as any professional, unbiased ABC presenter would do these days. "

Bolt is an idiot he's now playing Tony Abbott's media  court jester trying to distract us all from some trivial isolated press release put out by a nobody named person in government.  We should show compassion for Casper because he's a ghost.

However Bolt does put out a real sense of urgency about a real department fuck up by keeping on ringing his bells and making a noise about it. Maybe he should turn to real issues and the state of the economy instead running another side show.

The terrible shaming of John Brogden

Has anybody heard Bolt pull back from roasting a member of the other side or anyone he disagrees with? There's more than meets the eye going on here. Bolt is really sympathetic of Latham. When a politician behaves beyond the pale he should be named and shamed. If and when explanations surface at a later date. They become explanations from the man whose no longer the politician. Is Bolt suggesting he be reinstated. 

Bolt offers none of this sympathy for Aboriginals or others that suffer addictions or mental health issues. Neither does the law. It only provide for mitigating circumstances after the judgement is made and before sentencing. Brogden's story is an example how we have changed in as much people are coming out and revealing the extent of illness and the need to understand it  and not stigmatize it. Had Brogden physically accosted someone would Bolt be so generous?

Mental illness, drug addiction, and crime are largely classless they exist throughout society from Toorak to remote aboriginal communities. How it's dealt with is significantly different. Brogden seems to be no longer in denial from where the shame stems and maybe now he's moved along the path of the 12 steps as proposed NA or AA. We can only hope so. However he knows there was no excuse and shaming the Politician, Judge, or CEO is often very necessary.

Bolt's attempt at being humanist totally hypocritical and self serving.

 

 

Column - The real border farce are the critics

News Corp paywall.

 "Note from the start: this operation against illegal immigrants never took place. And was never going to take place as the media described."

The press release was signed off by a very senior person in the ABF a central part of our Immigration Department. The press release was sent to Peter Dutton's office and was seen by his staff. Dutton claims he never saw it. However that seems hardly likely as it was by no means intended to be a small and trivial action. It was even given a big action and the good luck name" Operation Fortitude." It must have been something discussed before hand just for it's title alone. So Dutton knew about it.

According to Bolt however it had as much substance as Casper. That's what the government wants us to believe now. So in  schoolboy debating fashion Bolt is trying  to flip the debate. He's trying to blame those asking the who's , where's and why-fores of gross incompetence. Tyrants are known to disappear people for questioning obvious cock ups. Democracies welcome the questions no matter how embarrassing. One need only ask how far right of center was the initial concept of Operation Fortitude?  Since discovered how forthright is the government being and now how right of center  is exercise of damage control assisted by News Corp and Andrew Bolt in salvaging Tony Abbott's from his Children over board Moment?

  If the named but not shamed critics Bolt calls out have not disappeared by the end of the day it can't be called a Pinochet or Franco event. Yet Bolt is treating it as such almost crying for the removal of their citizenship and the deportation of these insurgents. Bolt is not an Australian he has no understanding of irony or Australian political humour he cant laugh like an Australian or be seen publicly he's just far too right wing.

He reprimanded Gillard and Shorten for what he regarded as biased answers spurred by self interest on issues forgotten 6 years prior. His forgetfulness was a matter of months.

All of Bolt's blogs conveniently overlook this fact and are simply deflections away from the central issue whether what happened shows the  bias he accused Shorten and Gillard of. thus his competence to remain head of the Commission.

 

 

ABC trawls the Twitter sewers for anti-Abbott manure

Link Advertorial for the Bolt Report Link Chris Kenny News Corp.

Bolt's target the ABC is  News Corps's opposition to larger corporate profit.  Because it supplies trusted news  information despite thin ratings. It does it in the tried and true method of  real journalism as it was intended to be in a democracy and it does it without bias in the style of an independent and public broadcaster. 

Australia is a wide and broad palette of urban , rural, remote multi-cultural   tastes with a diverse range of political and social interest groups who don't all serve the business models of private media in their  simplistic search for ratings. The ABC shines it's light on a variety of groups and has a broader agenda. Like Choice or any other quality controller it assesses the value of our institutions and other diverse groups publicly for us. To say someone is not doing their job well is not being biased. To say that the public interest is not being served is an news and information service and is not bias. To invite these diverse groups on the ABC to have their say is not bias if one group out of petulance decides to go on strike.The government is only one of many institutions and groups the ABC examines. It's not bias.

Only weak governments, opaque governments, governments lacking transparency cry foul. They sometimes do it directly as Abbott did with his collectivist LNP strike. They expect the public broadcaster to serve them as  do some private media who act as quasi PR and advertising agents for them. News Corp being the prime example. It's where the business of media and politics intersect for mutual but not always the public interest but in a way that undermines any notion of democracy. 

" But the ABC seems only too eager to hurt this Government:" Bolt

In it's manic urgency to suggest that Operation Fortitude was only an error in a badly worded  press release by some junior  in the immigration department and not the intended deployment of Abbott's army on the center of Melbourne. New's Corp has tried to smother any natural questions or humour about the incompetence of a government department. It wasn't a government issue but only an "operational matter" according to Julie Bishop. Isn't that the term invented by Scott Morrison to now secret matters that can't be talked about?

 News Corp instead of asking the questions expected of any news organization the how,when, where and whys simply tries to shut those questions down or when they can't do that they  herald them as subversive.  As usual Bolt's employed to  deflect away from Operation Fortitude and try to distort whats actually happening.

Bolt diverts from Operation Fortitude to Captain Hastie and Canning it's a wonder he didn't turn to the Colombian contract on Mick Gatto to smother  any legitimate questioning of what appears to be a farce. Many however believe it was to be an intended show and tell operation by Tony Abbott to boost his ratings.  An operation that an ex cop and now Minister Peter Dutton  woefully botched.

Peter Hartcher’s vile smear

 

Link SMH

Why on earth has Bolt distorted  a media article only to bring it to our attention that he needs to protect Tony Abbot's good name? He does it so badly, he raises the suspicion that Abbott was being homophobic. The confusion developed because the Australian ambassador to France resigned and it caused a huge flurry in diplomatic circles . Had this not occurred Hartcher's attention would not have been drawn to it. Hartcher begins with the  fact:

"Australia's ambassador to France offered his resignation after an incident while greeting Tony Abbott as he arrived in Paris on Anzac Day."

 Bolt refers to this as his source and in it there is no reference whatsoever to any suggestion of homophobia.   The reference Bolt makes then is to  an interview on 2GB and an accompanied wink. This can't be regarded as a source for this blog as there is  neither a transcript nor an  interviewer mentioned. All we have is Bolt's word for what and how something might or might not have been said in what context we don't know.

What we do know Bolt has taken advantage of it to raise himself yet again as some dragon slayer on behalf of Abbott where I suspect there were only dragons of his own making. Hartcher refers to the confusion  as an issue over protocol in his SMH article. 

What do we get from Bolt? He embellishes it to the nth degree takes it to Timbuktu and back drawing in names from here there and everywhere making out it's been the issue of the month only to wind up in the end where Hartchers article does. That  the issue was  a matter of protocol. Hartcher doesn't even elaborate on the resignation. But Don Quixote Bolt demands an apology about some homophobic smear that certainly isn't in print and at best is rumoured to have been heard on 2GB . In doing so he's made mention that Abbott is not homophobic some three times. The man does protest to much.

That deed that exhonerates Abbott for everything he now does or will do. Even Bill Shorten has said it was a job well done and moved on just as Triggs did and in fact we have. What we want to know is

"When will the man do his day job and stop blaming everyone else, and start working in the long-term interests of Australia?…"

ANZAC day is over we don't celebrate it day in and day out as some unnamed Journalist want's to do. Shorten has moved on from the days of polishing Abbott's medals.

The shooters aren’t the victims 

Link Breitbart Ultra Conservative Ezine

I think Mormons were a good choice to highlight just how thick Breitbart is  along with Hawkeye P Bolt's troll and Bolt himself for posting it.

 Given the  core of Mormon faith is missionary work that exposes them to insults up close and personal,tolerance, peace and just having lots of kids. Breitbart's use of them as an example just shows what   a wacko ezine they in fact are. ” Nobody got shot for making that “brave musical.”. Of course they didn't so why state the obvious. Mormons may not be coscientious objectors but they just don't volunteer for a fight either. Have you seen the size of the bouncers in Scientology or the size of guns carried by some Southern Christian sects. Could you guarantee a KKK musical would have the same happy outcome?

Nobody has suggested that Draw Mahammed was illegal however if you know it might strongly offend and give rise to extreme reaction then due consideration should have been given to it's level of provocation and public safety. There's no justification in the words "I told you so" Two men are now dead. What pray tell is the definition of an ambush? Reports are now surfacing that, as is always the case, at least one of the idiots was known to the FBI before the attack.

Inciting religious hatred may not be an illegal act in the US however it is in the UK and a case of vilification might be considered here. It's not unusual for artists to be arrested in Australia because of a public complaint. We always here of police demands for art to be removed from public spaces and exhibitions . These complaints aren't generally from the left they tend to come from the tight arsed right conservatives in the main.  “When it got to the murders, I think I was surprised by that”: An abortion provider’s story -YOU WONT HEAR IT FROM BOLT

 

We cannot keep paying pensions to the rich

 Link Restricted to Murdoch fans only: This is not a blog it remains an unsourced rant.

 

" I say so as someone who will clearly be affected." Bolt bragging as always but says he cant afford the ART.... just a tight arse.

1) union funds out performed the CBA which I believe gave the LNP $ 4mill of our money which they in fact stole from us their clients recently. What did Corman say "forget about the past". That's over generous of him it's our money. 

2) Their CEO is paid more than $8mill and 12 CBA executives shared $50 million not including expenses outlayed on their behalf. Makes whatever Nick Carter is alluding to with the TWU whole board including expenses look like small fry.

The very modern Anthony Trollope

Link The New Yorker Vogue for the brain circulation for those who believe their they are the elite of America. Average age 47, income $106,000

 Bolt made it to the cover in his dreams. Anthony Trollope had "wisdom is to see the good in the bad, the bad in the good,". Bolt is a Trollope because he can't he has no understanding of the dialectic in life

 

 

Newspoll: Labor 52 to Coalition 48

How is it that Newspoll seems always out of wack with the other pollsters? Is it because it's News Corp sponsored? 

Will Clive Palmer sue Andrew Bolt for defamation? Clive won his case against Chinese company CITIC. Andrew Bolt however spent a lot of energy and time suggesting the opposite. YOU WONT HEAR THAT FROM BOLT

Qantas flies to the Left

When the economy struggles and Australia is trying to tell the world "We are open for business" There's nothing like having a Bolt in the bleachers slagging off the national carrier for what he perceives as political bias. Will he do the same for News Corp now that the editors of the Australian have let him down and have moved to his left? Somehow Bolt expects QANTAS  reveal all it's political leanings even  border control. All Bolt really wants is to perv on the hostesses a little longer as they deliver their on board safety message coupled with a vote for Tony song.

How personal can our man Bolt get? Inside leg measurement of male flgt crew to see which way they hang?

Memo to the Australian: blast Kelly, not me

Link Restricted

Bolt suddenly realizes some truths. He has limited 'free speech' as we all do. There is nothing special about the him other than the platform with which he's been gifted.. He's a corporate hack a puppet on a string with the misguided belief he's free. This says more about him than News Corp. The sludge that comes out of the man comes from a true ignorant. Thanks go out to Paul Kelly for bringing it into the open and thanks to the editors of the Australian for not intervening for the puppet. Alone again naturally
