Moving away from my usual pet subjects (they are pet subjects for a reason, of course), here is something that a great many people may not know about, or may only have scant details about. I have to admit that while I was aware of the matter, I also did not possess all the detail... Continue Reading →
“It’s Not American” – Which Makes It – ‘One For The Books’
I long (yearn) for stories about my chosen country - Australia - which I can be proud to announce and display to the world. But they are few and far between these days. Government mismanagement of the country and warped views on world affairs throughout the country generally, have ensured that. I hope for change,... Continue Reading →
The Netherlands and Australia Continue Their Fake Case Against Russia on the MH17 Tragedy. It’s Laughable Really. They Have No Case.
'The Netherland, Australia want ICAO to oblige Russia begin talks on MH17 case' - TASS - May 12, 2025 I'm going to share this TASS news in full here (for readers' convenience) because, as an Australian, I am ashamed of my country's actions in pursuing the ridiculous 'kangaroo court' process, which I have followed every...

First take a look at this recent view of the AUKUS debacle... 'Dotty and Cretinous: Reviewing... Continue Reading →
Just What is Australia Thinking, atm?
I don't often dabble seriously in what Australia thinks about global matters. Yes, I do mention the country from time to time - I am Australian, by choice rather than birth, after all, and have in fact spent more than half my life there. But I do tend to think about global matters all or... Continue Reading →
Summer Snow
This is not a seriously serious post. Well, it is, but it's not meant to be. And I can't just let slip past, without comment, an opportunity to demonstrate why we would be foolish (perhaps even are foolish) enough to base our climate thinking on the vagaries of 'weather'. A day or two ago I... Continue Reading →
“Go To Hell” America
I was quite overjoyed to read Christopher Black's latest article on NEO today. At last a voice from Canada - a nation I have not had much substance on which to heap praise for a long, long, time - raised to rebuke the new Trump pretender. Everything about the US is pretence. Hear! Hear, Christopher.... Continue Reading →
A Ship Divided, Simply Will Not Float
A third iteration of this post. Read on, for the saga. After some searching I have re-found the original Global Times article on which I was basing my original post today. The GT article has been a little edited (I think) and re-titled, though most of it remains the same, from memory. Phew! Mystery solved.... Continue Reading →
