Thou shalt not congregate
Logan is home to one of Australia’s first Islamic suicide bombers. Self-censorship means its community can’t meet to discuss the danger within.
We’re at war with the Islamic State & no one knows where halal fees go
The global halal market is set to reach $10 trillion by 2030. That’s a lot of moolah for the mullahs. And every item of food certified halal has to be checked by an Islamic checker. And it doesn’t stop there. Everything else about the food must be compliant too. The feed. The transportation. Even the packaging. The list goes on. Forms for halal certification in Australia go into great detail. For instance, processed food suppliers...
Learning from the muftis
Well I guess no one saw this coming, least of all Tony Abbott. But in their usual inimitable style, the Head Honchos of Australia’s Islamic community have just gone and proved Abbott and all the other people living in the fairy land known as ‘Moderate Islam’ wrong. That’s because they’ve just objected to laws that prohibit advocacy of terrorism. There is now a collective Frenzy of Imams concerned that these laws will place those who...
The ADF, Islam and Australian Values
Bernard Gaynor speaks about the ADF’s flawed understanding of Islam. Must watch.
Not dealing with the Islamic State
I wrote yesterday about how we should deal with the Islamic State. And just like charity, it all starts at home. We need to make sure that we are strong enough to protect ourselves internally before we embark on missions overseas, however warranted they may seem. Given the recent decision to raise terrorism threat levels, it is resoundingly clear that the internal danger is growing inside Australia. Although Australians didn’t need...
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...
Interview with Neil Johnson (Vision Radio)
Yesterday I spoke to Neil Johnson from Vision Radio on his program, 20Twenty. During the hour long interview, we discussed: ADF involvement in the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras The ADF’s respect for Islam over Christianity The establishment of Sharia Law states in Iraq and Afghanistan The failure of military operations in the Middle East The growth of Islam in Australia The bias of the mainstream media The importance of...
Dying for Sharia Law
If the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria are the bad guys, then who are the goodies? It’s a worthwhile question that has been lost in all the handwringing ever since ISIS launched its blitzkrieg towards Baghdad with US weapons. The answer depends on who you listen to. If you believe the head-honchos in the know, then the goodies are the guys that still own Baghdad, at least on paper anyway. Of course, the head-honchos in the know just...
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....
