Thoughts For The Week By Ron Owen.
Ironically, the Australia media are screaming for human rights, they want the
Right to Free Speech, not for everyone of course just protection for
journalists. They want exemptions to laws that keep government secrets, they
want protection from the laws of defamation and discrimination. When myself and
many others have been prosecuted and persecuted for speaking out about the laws
of discrimination, (suffered an 8 year court case) and I suffered a 4 year case
for having in my possession the recipe for manufacturing Black Powder (which is
in every good encyclopaedia it has been available for 700 years) the media
never came once to our defence. They manufactured stories that made me and
others comparable with serial killers.
I'm not saying that they are wrong in demanding the Freedom of Speech, it is a
Right of Free people.Even the High Court Australian ‘Capital Television Pty Ltd
v Commonwealth”case found that the “Political Broadcasts and Political
Disclosures Act 1991,[2]” which regulated political advertising during election
campaigns, invalid. The High Court found the laws to be invalid, since they
contravened an implied freedom of political communication in the Australian
Constitution. Chief Justice Mason expressed the view that the Australian
Constitution originally drew its authority from the British Imperial Parliament
and although it was not mentioned in the Courts final decision the Bill of
Rights of 1689 which is one of the documents that establishes the Rights of the
people and the Rights of the British Imperial Parliament was referred to and
discussed in the full transcript. Ironical, that the same Bill of Rights that
give the Freedom of Speech, the Freedom to Petition the Freedom of Parliamenty
Representation that won the case for the Australian media in the Capital
Television case is the same Bill of Rights of 1689 that give us all the Right
to have ‘Arms suitable for our defence’. (Protestants and Catholics) The
Australian Politicians will fly immediately to the Bill of Rights to defend the
Rights of Free Speech in Parliament, the Journalists will fly to the section on
the Right to Petition, (as without the Right to report its impossible for the
public to know a Petition is required, or what it is about, but when law
abiding Firearm Owners claim the Right to have ‘Arms suitable for our Defence’,
well both Politicians and Media laugh at us and state that the Bill of Rights
has no meaning in Australia or anywhere else. Law Abiding Firearm Owners have
been swung on the gibbet, hung, drawn, and quartered by the media zombies. Now
is the time that the should all be reminded of their hypocrisy.
“Treason doth never prosper, what’s the reason?For if it prosper,
none dare call it Treason.”
Sir John Harington (1560–1612)
What does it mean, When we have a society that betrays its country so
prosperously, so epidemically that our Chinese funded politicians can not be
criticised by our Chinese funded universities nor will the finger be pointed at
the Chinese funded media.. They have all been bought and paid for all are
‘Traitors’.
The New Chinese Empire Why would Julia Bishop contribute.
Why would Julie Bishop’s when Minister for Foreign Affairs DFAT
(Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade) donated taxpayer funds to support
China’s Belt and Road initiative.
If she is not being paid by them, is she a secret communist?
We can see why Communists would seek to infiltrate our University’s.
Their god like Messiah Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, otherwise known as ‘Lenin’
said,
“Give us the child for 8 years and it will be a Bolshevik
forever.” Taking the minds of the next generation of teachers, politicians
and journalist takes every country into his Communist International, but we do
not have a paradise to look forward to.
Lenin’s further quotes explain the forward planning.
“We must be ready to employ trickery, deceit, law-breaking,
withholding and concealing truth…”
“We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses
hate, revulsion, and scorn toward those who disagree with us.”
(Just see the re-action of hate when we expose the “Climate Change”
fraud.)
“The press should be not only a collective propagandist and a
collective agitator, but also a collective organizer of the masses.”
“The best revolutionary is youth devoid of morals.””A lie told often
enough becomes the truth.”
“There are no morals in politics there is only expedience.” “A
scoundrel may be of use to us just because he is a scoundrel.” “Our
program necessarily includes the propaganda of atheism.”
“It matters not if 90% of the Russian people perish so long as 10%
bring about a world revolution.”
Like Lenin, Stalin and Mao, and despite his more positive reputation
among Leftists, Lenin also wished to exterminate the peasant class, even
orchestrating famines to do so, in order to force his will on pure Communism.
This also proves that Communism, despite the PR, never cared at all for the
poor people.
In November 1917, at a meeting of delegates of the committees of poor
peasants, Lenin announced a new policy to eliminate Soviet peasants, known as
“kulaks”land owning peasants: “If the kulaks remain untouched, if we don’t
defeat the freeloaders, the czar and the capitalist will inevitably
return.” In July 1918, “Committees of the Poor” were created to represent
poor peasants, which played an important role in the struggle against the
kulaks, and led the process of redistribution of confiscated lands and
inventory, food surpluses from the kulaks.
All kulaks were assigned to one of three categories:
1.Those to be shot or imprisoned as decided by the local secret
political police
2.Those to be sent to Siberia, the North, the Urals or Kazakhstan,
after confiscation of their property
3.Those to be evicted from their houses and used in labour colonies
within their own districts
An OGPU secret-police functionary, Yefim Yevdokimov (1891–1939),
played a major role in organizing and supervising the round-up of peasants and
the mass executions.
This was so successful for them that they expanded the goal posts and
eliminated any area of society that they felt were against the Communist
ideals, Clergy, Cossacks, Intellectuals and professionals, Jews, Business
people, including doctors and engineers.
There were numerous reports that Cheka interrogators used torture. At
Odessa the Cheka tied White officers to planks and slowly fed them into
furnaces or tanks of boiling water; in Kharkiv, scalpings and hand-flayings
were commonplace: the skin was peeled off victims’ hands to produce “gloves”;
the Voronezh Cheka rolled naked people around in barrels studded internally
with nails; victims were crucified or stoned to death at Dnipropetrovsk; the
Cheka at Kremenchuk impaled members of the clergy and buried alive rebelling
peasants; in Oryol, water was poured on naked prisoners bound in the winter
streets until they became living ice statues; in Kiev, Chinese Cheka
detachments placed rats in iron tubes sealed at one end with wire netting and
the other placed against the body of a prisoner, with the tubes being heated
until the rats gnawed through the victim’s body in an effort to escape.
Executions took place in prison cellars or courtyards, or
occasionally on the outskirts of town, during the Red Terror and Russian Civil
War. After the condemned were stripped of their clothing and other belongings,
which were shared among the Cheka executioners, they were either machine-gunned
in batches or dispatched individually with a revolver. Those killed in prison
were usually shot in the back of the neck as they entered the execution cellar,
which became littered with corpses and soaked with blood. Victims killed
outside the town were moved by truck, bound and gagged, to their place of
execution, where they sometimes were made to dig their own graves.
According to Edvard Radzinsky, “it became a common practice to take a
husband hostage and wait for his wife to come and purchase his life with her
body”. During de-Cossackization, there were massacres, according to historian Robert
Gellately, “on an unheard of scale”. The Pyatigorsk Cheka organized a “day of
Red Terror” to execute 300 people in one day, and took quotas from each part of
town. According to the Chekist Karl Lander [ru], the Cheka in Kislovodsk, “for
lack of a better idea”, killed all the patients in the hospital. In October
1920 alone more than 6,000 people were executed. Gellately adds that Communist
leaders “sought to justify their ethnic-based massacres by incorporating them
into the rubric of the ‘class struggle'”.
“For every idealistic ‘peace-maker,’ willing to renounce his right of
self-defense in order to bring-about a ‘weapons-free world,’ there is at least
one malignant war-maker, more than anxious to exploit his naivety” Margaret
Thatcher
Members of the clergy were subjected to particularly brutal abuse.
According to documents cited by the late Alexander Yakovlev, then head of the
Presidential Committee for the Rehabilitation of Victims of Political
Repression, priests, monks and nuns were crucified, thrown into cauldrons of
boiling tar, scalped, strangled, given Communion with melted lead and drowned
in holes in the ice. Many scholars have estimated these civilian deaths at 20
million conservatively and approaching 100 million. In his foreword to the book,
Martin Malia noted “a grand total of victims variously estimated by
contributors to the volume at between 85 million and 100 million dead people.
So why would Australian Universities corporate with Communist China.
UNSW Professor of Artificial Intelligence Toby Walsh said Australian
universities were walking down a dangerous road and should consider carefully
who they collaborate with.
“We’ve seen such rapid advances in the last few years, that we do now
have to wake up and consider seriously the implications and how the technology
that we work on can be misused,” he said. Australian universities have also
collaborated with Chinese defence universities.
Researchers at the Australian National University (ANU) have worked
on dozens of such studies, including a 2019 study on covert communications with
the China’s National University of Defense Technology, which was blacklisted by
the US four years ago. The study authors said it could have military
applications, including “for a stealth fighter … to be able to hide itself from
enemies while communicating with its military bases.”
Is it because Chinese students seem to account for more than 50% of
all international students? In 2017, they relied on Chinese student course fees
for anywhere from 13% (Adelaide and ANU) to 22-23% (UNSW and Sydney) of their
total revenues. Even these figures likely understate their true China exposure,
since they generate substantial non-course revenue from Chinese students as
well.
Senior Australian security officials have reported that the joint
activities between UNSW and Chinese Defence companies are evidence that Beijing
is running a global espionage operation through technology companies.Australian
Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI) analyst Dr Samantha Hoffman has spent months
uncovering GTCOM’s global and Australian connections. She said the company’s
intent was to support the Chinese Communist Party’s security interests.“Whether
it contributes to a state security product or propaganda or military
intelligence, all of the data they’re collecting can then be turned into
information that supports those objectives,” said Dr Hoffman. “So immediately
that raises red flags.”
Professor John Fitzgerald, who served as a chair on DFAT’s (Department of
Foreign Affairs and Trade) Australia-China Council, said Chinese companies were
capitalising on Australia’s science and technology expertise.
“Australia’s science and technology priorities are being set by the Chinese
Government because we enter into collaborations that have really been designed to
support China’s goals, not ours,” he said.“Many universities are very
happy to proceed with whatever it is … because of the money and prestige
involved.” “There’s a possibility that some of this research will go
towards uses which could place Australia at risk.”
IT MUST BE THE MONEY as We Pay Them To BETRAY Us.
In January, Chinese media reported on Haiyun Data’s announcement of a new joint
artificial intelligence laboratory with the University of Technology, Sydney
(UTS).
UTS associate dean and director of its Centre for Artificial Intelligence,
Professor Jie Lu, was pictured holding a signed agreement with Haiyun.
Professor Lu was last month awarded a $3.2 million fellowship from the
Australian Research Council for a project to enable artificial intelligence to
learn autonomously from data.
The university has confirmed it has a research project with Haiyun Data to
develop technology for handwriting recognition.
Former head of the Australian Cyber Security Centre at the Australian Signals
Directorate Alastair MacGibbon said universities needed to understand the
implications of their international research deals.
Mao Zedong Competed with Stalin For the World Biggest Killer.
Who was the individual in charge of the largest mass murderer in the
history of the world? Most people probably assume that the answer is Adolf
Hitler, architect of the Holocaust. But more than likely Hitler, Lenin and Stalin
were outdone by Mao Zedong as one would have to split up the USSR mass murder
between Lenin and Stalin. From 1958 to 1962, his Great Leap Forward policy led
to the deaths of up to 45 million people, just within four years. Easily making
it the biggest one off episode of mass murder ever recorded.
Historian Frank Dikötter, author of the important book “Mao’s Great
Famine” stated,
“Mao thought that he could catapult his country past its competitors
by herding villagers across the country into giant people’s communes. In
pursuit of a utopian paradise, everything was collectivised. People had their
work, homes, land, belongings and livelihoods taken from them. In collective
canteens, food, distributed by the spoonful according to merit, became a weapon
used to force people to follow the party’s every dictate. As incentives to work
were removed, coercion and violence were used instead to compel famished
farmers to perform labour on poorly planned irrigation projects while fields
were neglected.”
It is not merely the extent of the catastrophe that dwarfs earlier
estimates, but these record the manner in which many people died: between two
and three million victims were tortured to death or summarily killed, often for
the slightest infraction. “When a boy stole a handful of grain in a Hunan
village, local boss Xiong Dechang forced his father to bury him alive. The
father died of grief a few days later. The case of Wang Ziyou was reported to
the central leadership: one of his ears was chopped off, his legs were tied
with iron wire, a ten kilogram stone was dropped on his back and then he was
branded with a sizzling tool – punishment for digging up a potato.”
Elderly villagers in one region of a quarter of a million Chinese
were banned from the official canteen because they were too old or ill to be
effective workers, so were deliberately starved to death.
Followed by Millions of Deaths in the Cultural Revolution.
The basic facts of the Great Leap Forward have long been known to scholars.
Dikötter’s work is noteworthy for demonstrating that the number of victims may
have been even greater than previously thought, and that the mass murder was
more clearly intentional on Mao’s part, and included large numbers of victims
who were executed or tortured, as opposed to “merely” starved to death. The
Great Leap Forward was followed by the Cultural Revolution which was also
organised by Chairman Mao again millions died
While the horrors of the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural
Revolution are well known to experts on communism and Chinese history, they are
rarely remembered by ordinary people even within China. When Westerners think
of the great evils of world history, they rarely think of this one. An even
bigger factor in our relative neglect of the Great Leap Forward is that it is
part of the general tendency to downplay crimes committed by communist regimes,
as opposed to right-wing authoritarians. Our bought and paid for mainstream
media are very reluctant to fully accept that a great evil is within Communist/Socialist
movement. The horrendous history of China, the USSR, and their imitators,
should have permanently discredited Communist socialism as completely as
Fascism socialism as both were socialism all have the same disregard for human
life and freedom.
But it has not.
In contrast to the numerous books, movies, museums, and remembrance
days dedicated to the Holocaust, we make little effort to recall the Great Leap
Forward, or the Cultural Revolution, or Lenin’ and Stalin purges. When we vow
“never again,” we don’t often recall that it should apply to this type of
political atrocity, as well as those motivated by anti-Semitism.
I have no wish to diminish the significance of anyone’s loss due to
Hitler the impact is on the individual and their families, if these dictators
kill more or less millions that the others is not the point of this
information, this is to remind us all of what Chinese Communist atrocities are
capable of and we have to consider that if they will do this to their own
people how generous, or compassionate would they be when Australians are at
their disposal?
War not just likely but inevitable.
In 12 of 16 past instances in history in which a rising power has
confronted a ruling power, the result has been War and bloodshed. Yet 100 years
after World War I we hear it said that “War is inconceivable”, this again
offers a sobering reminder of man’s capacity for folly.
In 1914, few could imagine slaughter on a scale that demanded a new
category: world war. When war ended four years later, Europe lay in ruins: the
Kaiser gone, the Austro-Hungarian Empire dissolved, the Russian Tsar overthrown
by the Bolsheviks, France bled for a generation, and England shorn of its youth
and treasure. A millennium in which Europe had been the political centre of the
world had come to a crashing halt.
Thucydides’s Trap
In the ancient text “History of the Peloponnesian War”, Thucydides
wrote, “What made war inevitable was the growth of Athenian power and the
fear which this caused in Sparta.”
The defining question about global order for this generation is
whether China and the United States can escape Thucydides’s Trap.”when one
great power threatens to displace another, war is almost always the result”. The
Greek historian’s metaphor reminds us of the attendant dangers when a rising
power rivals a ruling power, as Athens challenged Sparta in ancient Greece, or
as Germany did Britain a 100 years ago. Most such contests have ended badly,
often for both nations.
When King Edward VII died in 1910 Attendees at his funeral included
two “chief mourners”, Edward’s successor, George V, and his cousin Germany’s
Kaiser Wilhelm, along with Theodore Roosevelt representing the United States.
At one point, Roosevelt (an avid student of naval power and leading champion of
the buildup of the U.S. Navy) asked Wilhelm whether he would consider a
moratorium in the German-British naval arms race. The Kaiser replied that
Germany was unalterably committed to having a powerful navy. But as he went on
to explain, war between Germany and Britain was “simply unthinkable,
because “I was brought up in England, very largely; I feel myself partly an
Englishman. Next to Germany I care more for England than for any other
country.” And then with emphasis: “I ADORE ENGLAND!”
The World has Woken Up to A New Balance.
However unimaginable conflict seems, however catastrophic the potential
consequences for all actors, however deep the cultural empathy among leaders,
even blood relatives, and however economically interdependent states may be,
none of those factors is sufficient to prevent war, in 1914 or today in 2020.
The preeminent geo-strategic challenge of this era is not violent
Islamic extremists or a resurgent Russia. It is the impact that China’s
ascendance will have on the U.S.A. led international order, which has provided
unprecedented great-power peace and prosperity for the past 70 years. As
Singapore’s late leader, Lee Kuan Yew, observed, “the size of China’s
displacement of the world balance is such that the world must find a new
balance. It is not possible to pretend that this is just another big player.
This is the biggest player in the history of the world.” Everyone knows
about the rise of China. Few of us realize its magnitude. Never before in
history has a nation risen so far, so fast, on so many dimensions of power. To
paraphrase former Czech President Vaclav Havel, “all this has happened so
rapidly that we have not yet had time to be astonished.”
DF 41 Dong Feng East Wind would blow no one any good .
We have seen the USA pull out of Syria and leaving its Allies the
Kurds at the mercy of the Turkish Army. The Kurds have lost 10,000 soldiers
fighting IS (supported by Turkey) and the USA have not taken that into account.
We saw the US government pull out of South Vietnam which allowd the North to
take the South and settle the scores with 3 million South Vietnam ese. How can
Australia expect the USA to place its mainland cities in jeopardy to protect
Australia.
Useful Fools.
Idiots in the Peace and Green movement funded by George Soros and the Chinese
government have this notion, that if we do not have a Nuclear deterrent,
Nuclear missiles, Nuclear Bombs, Nuclear Submarines, Aircraft that can deliver
Nuclear warheads, Artillery that can deliver Nuclear warheads, that no other
Nuclear endowed government would ever attack us with Nuclear weapons. Worse
than that, even more “head in the sand”, most of the brain dead zombies that
parade about with flowers in their dirty ‘Dreadlocks’ believe that if we have
no Anti Missile Defence, no missiles to stop Nuclear armed Missiles attacking
Australia then that’s another reason why an enemy like North Korea or China or
any of the other Nuclear armed governments would not attack Australia. Vladimir
Ilyich Ulyanov, otherwise known as ‘Lenin’, called the British Peace Movement,
“Useful Fools” well ours are well paid fools and are useful to the enemies of
our Country. The largest majority do not even know or think that Australia will
ever be attacked by anyone. Where else in history has this innocence been
rewarded.
No Force Can Stop Us.
On the first of October 2019 in Beijing where Chang’an Avenue, meets Tiananmen
Square
Chinese President Xi Jinping looked on as roughly 15,000 troops, 160
aircraft, and 580 pieces of military equipment were paraded for the 70th
anniversary of the country’s founding
Mr Xi, who wore the distinctive “Mao suit”, delivered a speech
invoking the “Chinese dream” of national rejuvenation, his grand vision of
restoring the country to his perceived past glory.
“No force can stop the Chinese people and the Chinese nation forging
ahead.”
“There is no force that can shake the foundation of this great nation,”
Xi said
“Unity is iron and steel; unity is a source of strength,” Xi
said, according to an English-language transcript from the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs
The military parade showcased what’s claimed to be the world’s
longest range intercontinental ballistic missile, the DF-41 DF stands for
Dongfeng which means in English ‘East Wind’ which should be significant to the
United States as that the direction that they would come from. The missile has
a reputed range of up to 15,000 kilometres putting both Australia and the
United States within striking distance. Analysts say it each missile will be
able to carry as many as 10 warheads capable of hitting separate targets. So
one missile to Australia and ten major cities get a nuclear warhead worth a few
kiloton of devastation.
The DF-26 ballistic missile which are fired from land bases, is made
to have the accuracy to strike at the key element of US power projection, the
US Navy’s aircraft carriers in the Pacific.
HSU-001 underwater drones were on show for the first time the HSU-001
appears to be similar in size to Boeing’s Echo Seeker design and could be
equipped with explosive deapth charges.
The vehicle-mounted DF-17 (Dongfeng) missile was displayed and will
be capable of delivering both nuclear and conventional payloads,”the DF-17
missile successfully completed its ballistic flights and reentered the Earth’s
atmosphere, using the hypersonic glide vehicle system. It leaves the earths
atmosphere strapped to a DF-16 ballistic missile and then breaks away and
glides down to its target at 5 times the speed of sound. Currently there is no
defence for this missile. China’s military showed off these new hypersonic
ballistic nuclear missile believed capable of breaching all existing anti-missile
shields deployed by the US and its allies. These longer-range aircraft and
missiles seem designed with the U.S. military in mind, analysts say
The parade also included two new supersonic drone, suspected to be
the DR-8, which military commentators say could fly at maximum speeds of around
4,100 kilometres per hour. The
DR-8 unmanned aerial vehicle and the Sharp Sword stealth attack drone
which can reach as far into the western Pacific as the American territory of
Guam. More concerning for the USA is the Sharp Sword, is an attack drone that
is not just a UAV but a UCAV: an unmanned combat air vehicle. The aircraft can
carry missiles or laser-guided bombs. It is expected to enter service before
the end of the year.
The PLA Rocket Force has placed particular emphasis on developing
dangerous long-range anti-ship missiles that can keep the U.S. Navy at a safe
distance,” the Defence Talk industry publication reported, “so the Sharp
Sword’s ability to further extend that range only places enemy ships in all the
more peril.”
Pairs or small numbers of J-20s have appeared in previous parades,
but the fact the Air Force is ready to fly seven of them is significant and
suggests they are ready for combat, according to analysts”A considerable number
of units are probably ready to fly the J-20,” Wang Ya’nan, chief editor of
Aerospace Knowledge magazine, told the Global Times.
“If seven J-20s are sent simultaneously into battle, they would have
a significant striking capability with their air-to-air and air-to-surface
weapons,” Wang told the paper. They would be able to strike enemy targets deep
in hostile territory, he said. Designed for enhanced stealth and
manoeuverability, the J-20 has the potential to provide China with a variety of
previously unavailable air combat options and enhance its capability to project
China’s air power.
The H-6N, a new version of China’s long-range strategic bomber, also
appeared during parade rehearsals.Other observers noted the bomber had an
aerial refueling receptacle. That will enable the aircraft, which was modeled
on the Soviet Tu-16 jet bomber, to carry out in-flight refueling.
China’s 70th anniversary parade interestingly included 12 JL-2
submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBM) carried on trucks. Though these
have reportedly been in active service on board the People’s Liberation Army,
Navy’s nuclear-powered Type 094 Jin class ballistic missile submarines, the
Chinese government had not displayed any examples publicly before.
The parade featured China’s new lightweight Type 15 tanks with the fully
stabilized 105mm rifled gun and an effective firing range of two miles. The tank
weighs between 33 and 36 tons, making it more mobile than a standard battle
tank, which usually weight about 50 tons.
What is already clear is that China’s military modernization is
continuing at a brisk pace and the country is pushing ahead more and more
toward closing capability gaps with its largest competitors, namely the United
States and in some areas have more firepower.
It certainly appears that unless America has a technological break
through its military dominance in the world is on the back foot.
Apathy, on the Greatest Scale Imaginable.
The Ten Year Rule was a British government guideline, first adopted
in August 1919, that limited its armed forces to draft their estimates “on the
assumption that the British Empire would not be engaged in any great war during
the next ten years”.(sometimes called the Pernicious Law.) It was a secret rule
introduced into Parliament that stated Britain could count on ten years notice
for any major conflict. Accordingly, she need not spend significant funds in the
near term on her military. The rule was renewed each year until it found itself
in such a weakened state in the mid 1930s against Germany’s re armament.
Australia must be running on a Thirty year rule and not expecting to need a
defence until at lease 2050 when its 12 useless French submarines will finally
be ready. The Chinese parade has shown us the way, we need a large factory
producing those HSU-001 underwater drones submarines and
the DR-8 unmanned aerial vehicle and the Sharp Sword stealth attack
drones. We need hundreds of them all large ships and slow moving planes are all
just targets we cannot afford to lose. The Chinses have looked to oppose the
large US aircraft carrier and our opponents will be large Chinese aircraft
carriers without those large ships China cannot impose its will o Australia. We
have to have a counter threat to their ships and missiles.
