Defeat lies at the end of the rainbow
Apparently, diversity wins wars. It is vital for capability, so we are told. So let’s have a look at how ‘diversity’ is increasing operational effectiveness in Western militaries. And we’ll start in America, proud owner of the most operationally effective military force of them all. As a result of diversity, the United States Army is sacking Lieutenant Colonel Christopher Downey. Downey served his country for 24 years. He clocked up...
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...
Getting history wrong, even as it’s brought to light
The Defence LGBTI Information Service (DEFGLIS) has partnered with the Australian Catholic University, University of Melbourne and Macquarie University to “highlight the contributions made by LGBTI people who have served in Australia’s Army, Navy and Air Force.” Whoa! The Australian Catholic University? That’s a serious problem right there. The Australian Catholic University might be Catholic in name, and it might seek to be the...
Defence drops gay political lobby from its webpages
I have been very busy over the last few weeks travelling to give a number of presentations and dealing with some legal issues: I have been forced to defend myself against allegations that reporting indecent exposure by homosexuals to children is hate speech. The good news is that Defence has removed all links to DEFGLIS from its webpages. This is a significant victory. There was an attempt last week to downplay this victory, but do...
Defence considering Defence Conservative Action Network
I am pleased to report that the Australian Defence Force is now considering my request to wear uniform at the March for Babies, which will be held in October in Melbourne. Defence has also received my request for the Defence Conservative Action Network to receive the same support and recognition that has been given to the Defence Force Gay and Lesbian Information Service. I have no idea whether these requests will be granted but I...
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...
Join the Defence Conservative Action Network
I am happy to report that after discussions and feedback from a large number of officers, soldiers, family members of Defence personnel and veterans that I am forming the Defence Conservative Action Network (DEFCAN). DEFCAN will help Defence members with conservative social views to campaign for them and to ensure that these values are respected by Defence hierachy. The first step was taken today, when I sought permission through my...
Criticising Islam, gays sets army major up for a fall
Sydney Morning Herald columnist, Paul Sheehan, interviewed me last weekend at the Q Society’s International Symposium on Liberty & Islam. Today he writes about my speech regarding the ADF’s approach to religion, particularly Islam, and the fact that it holds the religious belief of our enemies in higher regard than the Christian faith held by most soldiers and Australians. The full text of my speech can be found here....
The Rainbow enters the Australian War Memorial
The Australian War Memorial has embraced the rainbow. Apparently uniformed ADF participation in the disgraceful and offensive Mardi Gras is now worthy of a place alongside galleries devoted to deeds of valour in Flanders, Tobruk and Vietnam. The names of those killed fighting for this country now share a space with tributes exalting those who prance down Oxford Street. It is an insult of immense magnitude. You can see the online...
Defence to march down Oxford Street again in 2014
The Australian Defence Force has announced it will once again support the Mardi Gras and march with self-described sexual perverts down Oxford Street. The official release is attached below: Apparently, the ADF views the Mardi Gras as a cultural event worthy of its support, even though it includes: blatant denigration of Christianity attacks on the elected leaders of this country, who supposedly exercise lawful control over the...
