Christian army officer Bernie Gaynor pays the price for marching out of step with top generals
The Sydney Morning Herald’s Paul Sheehan wrote this article in response to the Defence Force’s decision to terminate my commission. ***** The Australian Army will terminate Major Bernie Gaynor’s commission tomorrow. It is not difficult to see why. Gaynor has accused the army’s higher leadership of cowardice. He has made the claim publicly, repeatedly, and in various forms. He has predicted the moral cowardice...
Making yourself irrelevant
The Most Reverend Max Davis has stood aside as the Catholic Bishop of the Australian Defence Force. Bishop Davis has been charged by Western Australian police with an offence dating back to 1969, prior to his ordination. The allegation is that Bishop Davis abused a student at St Benedict’s College in New Norcia. Bishop Davis has released a statement emphatically denying the allegation. He will defend himself against the charge. I can...

Losing the Western will to fight (Part 3): The insidious really civil war
How did the West get to a point in which it loses aimless wars waged against goat herders who hold beliefs that cannot be criticised without booking yourself a date with the closest anti-discrimination tribunal? Is it just the misfortune of war? Is it simply a case of bumbling presidents, sidekick prime ministers and inept generals? If you don’t think the first question is worth asking, then please leave. You will find everything on...
Losing the Western will to fight (Part 2): Dissecting disaster
Yesterday Mosul, a city that once was home 3 million people, fell to an al Qaeda offshoot. Today it is Saddam Hussein’s hometown of Tikrit that finds itself under the control of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. It also has the keys to the nation’s largest oil refinery in Bayji. Shock and awe has returned to Iraq in the worst possible way. There can be no doubt that the same will happen in Afghanistan in the not too distant future....
Losing the Western will to fight (Part 1): An 8 step plan for failure
Two weeks ago it was announced that President Obama would spend the next two weeks outlining his vision for US foreign policy. It started with a speech that Obama gave in Afghanistan stating that the US would bring the war there to “a responsible end” by withdrawing US military forces. Then came the release of Taliban prisoners. Not much else has been announced that could be remotely described as visionary. In other news, Iraq’s...
NSW Tribunal reserves decision in Tess Corbett case
The New South Wales Civil and Administrative Decisions Tribunal held a hearing last week to determine whether Tess Corbett could appeal an order that she apologise to the homosexual activist and serial litigant, Gary Burns, and in writing in the Sydney Morning Herald. The Tribunal has reserved its decision, which means that we won’t know if the appeal can proceed for some time. This news report of the hearing highlights what is at...
A small win against the Chief of Defence Force
I am pleased to report a small win against the Chief of Defence Force, General David Hurley. In late February, General Hurley decided that he was going give effect to his decision to terminate my commission before a full review of this decision could take place. He was upset by the fact that I had continued to highlight the double standards within the military and that he was seeking to terminate my commission because I had publicly...
Warren Entsch should apologise
The Liberal Member for Leichhardt, Warren Entsch, has recently confirmed double standards at play in our society. Islam is protected, and when Muslims rampaged violently through our nation’s largest city because they disliked a second-rate You Tube video, politicians fell over themselves to condemn this film as offensive. Yet, just this week, Warren Entsch himself used the name of Jesus Christ in a base and derogatory manner....
