This sounds like an exaggeration. It’s not.

That is what Moderna’s own studies for mRNA-1010 “mFlusiva” show, as published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Serious adverse events were reported in 2.2 percent of the recipients of mRNA-1010, during the Moderna-funded trial.

A “serious adverse event” is an injury that causes death, persistent disability, in-patient hospitalisation or other serious medical episode.

Here it is, see for yourself: Efficacy and Safety of an mRNA Seasonal Influenza Vaccine in Adults, by Leroux-Roels, I; et al.

Of the 20,350 people injected with mRNA-1010, 455 were seriously injured.

The Moderna researchers hid the exact number of injuries from the published study, sticking with “2.2 percent”. It’s in a supplementary appendix that you can’t access without an institutional log-in.

But you can find it in a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) memorandum here, in table 20 on page 54. Archived here.

You can also find tables with more granular descriptions of the injuries at that document.

Moderna reduced 455 down to 449 injuries in Table S8 of its paywalled supplementary document, included in journalist Maryanne Demasi’s analysis here.

Moderna’s trial investigators concluded only three of those 449 injuries were “vaccine-related”. The word “related” injects ambiguity, when there is none.

The investigators were a mix of Moderna employees and “independent” clinical trial investigators all of whom were directly funded by Moderna and Blackstone life Sciences, owned by Blackstone, the asset manager which spawned BlackRock.

The Moderna-funded trial used its direct employees on the same team as the independent investigators, ensuring that it was not independent at all.

The trial did not compare the Moderna product with an inert, saline placebo, but against a GSK flu vaccine: Fluarix (also known as Alpharix).

The GSK product harmed less people in the trial than the mRNA did: 392 died or were seriously maimed by GSK’s Fluarix out of 20,353 for 1.9 percent.

All participants in the trial were aged 50 or older.

For this level of risk, Moderna’s mRNA-1010 only gives an absolute risk reduction for influenza of 0.8 percent.

Australia is considering releasing mRNA-1010

Australia’s drug regulator the Therapeutic Goods Administration is now considering mRNA-1010 for authorisation in Australia.

You can see the landing page here.

The TGA ignored my media request asking whether they are going to approve a product with such an alarming potential risk of injury and death.

A better question would be: if they approve it, who is going to be liable for the injuries and deaths? Will the taxpayer again be on the hook as they were for the covid products?

The TGA refuses to publish the names of those within the agency who are directly responsible for approving these products.

Those people are known as the Delegate or Delegates of the Secretary of the Department of Health.

Under the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989, the Department’s Secretary is the one who holds the statutory power to decide whether to register a medicine. They have the legal power to delegate this authority, to the person who actually signs the approval decision.

It is important to know exactly who is responsible for signing these decisions.

Without knowing their names, you can’t know if they are compromised by ties to the companies involved, and you can’t take legal action for redress if injured.

This is the exact defense that was recently heard in Federal Court during the Covid Vaccine Class Action.

It’s a vital matter of public interest that this information be published.

The TGA has so far refused to release the names of the delegates who decided to provisionally approve the covid gene-vaccines in 2021, and in their most recent response to my Freedom of Information request, they have tried to impose charges.

Moderna jumps the queue at the FDA

Moderna used a Priority Review Voucher to force the US drug regulator, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) into an expedited six-month review timeline instead of the standard 10-month review.

These short-cut vouchers are awarded to companies to expedite treatments for things like “neglected tropical diseases” for which there isn’t any existing help.

But once a company has a voucher they can sell it to Big Pharma and it can be used for anything.

They typically sell for up to US$100 million, but at least one recent sale raked in more than US$200 million with prices reportedly surging in the last three years. That gives you an idea of what it’s worth to Big Pharma to shave four months off the safety review process.

Why the FDA chose to approve these shots with no true placebo and a hugely high injury rate is a question for Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr, head of the over-arching body that oversees all the US health departments including the FDA, NIAID, NIH and Barda.

Kennedy has been increasingly isolated as his lieutenants have been forced out, one by one, and his reforms have been blocked in the courts.

For more on the controversial FDA authorisation of Moderna’s mRNA-1010 product and the isolation of HHS Secretary RFK Jr, see Highwire journalist Jefferey Jaxen’s analysis Is FDA’s New mRNA Flu Shot Approval Proof of Agency’s MAHA Purge?

The FDA’s Acting Commissioner is now Kyle Diamantas, the former Deputy Commissioner for Food who was Kennedy’s Senior Counselor. He replaced Marty Makary who resigned in May.

Journalist Maryanne Demasi has written that the FDA’s own briefing document “exposes clear regulatory malfeasance” because they used pooled data to hide the safety signal in her piece FDA’s botched review of Moderna’s flu mRNA vaccine.

20 years of evidence show flu vaccines don’t really work

Injected influenza vaccines are notoriously ineffective because they provoke blood-borne antibodies which are not useful for fighting off infections that come in through your mucosa.

They don’t stimulate mucosal immunity which is what you need to fight off respiratory-spread infections.

The Cochrane Collaboration was long regarded as the gold standard of science, the peer-reviewer of peer-reviewed studies.

Three separate Cochrane reviews over 20 years have looked at all the evidence for the traditional influenza vaccines, and have concluded there is little evidence that they do much of benefit at all.

“Current yearly registration of candidate influenza vaccines is based on their ability to trigger a good antibody response. But antibody responses are poor predictors of field protection. This is another example of the use of surrogate outcomes in biomedicine, where effects on clinically important outcomes remain unmeasured or unproven from randomised trials: complications and death by influenza,” the Cochrane reviewers wrote.

They are not even certain what causes “influenza-like illnesses”.

In the course of their reviews, Cochrane noted that influenza vaccines make you more (not less) likely to contract other respiratory illnesses.

Now, thanks to mRNA, we can add “dangerous” in addition to a shot that’s not really working.

For an excellent breakdown of Moderna’s mRNA-1010 mFlusiva product, see Dr John Campbell’s YouTube below.

Moderna wants cancer vaccine profits, too

There’s a lot of money in cancer because people will pay anything not to die.

Merck’s cancer immunotherapy Keytruda was the world’s top-earning drug in 2025, raking in US$31.7 billion in sales.

Moderna, which is more correctly viewed as a US Government public-private partnership rather than a normal corporation, has partnered with Merck for a slice of the pie.

Moderna and Merck jointly developed mRNA-4157, the “Intismeran autogene”.

They partnered it with Keytruda, and they are now advertising it via press release.

Intismeran is an investigational, personalised mRNA-based cancer “vaccine” which is custom-designed after analysing a sample of the victim’s tumour.

The idea is to enhance the body’s anti-tumour response alongside Keytruda.

Individualised cancer treatment was a pipe-dream of mRNA for years.

Merck and Moderna have announced their Phase III study results via press release here, archived here.

Oncology Professor Angus Dalgleish says the mRNA products themselves cause cancer due to various problems including immune suppression, DNA contamination and the presence of Simian Virus-40 promoter sequences.

You won’t be surprised to learn, as Maryanne Demasi reports, Moderna and Merck have not released the data.

“No Phase III results have been published in the peer-reviewed literature, and none have been posted to ClinicalTrials.gov,” Demasi writes.

It’s science by press release again.

It’s just not good enough.

But watch the Mainstream Media report these claims unchallenged, credulous reporters taking at face value everything the white coats tell them.

All the university experts will back them up, because Moderna’s mRNA empire, backed by Gates Foundation, Welcome Trust and the NIH, is funding all of their institutions.

Edits/updates: 23 August - changed paragraph order on adverse events to flow better, added updated info on the new cost of Priority Review Vouchers and turned comments on.

Covid Vaccine Class Action barrister Dominic Villa, SC, told the court that the injured had previously requested the Government reveal the names of the exact bureaucrats who approved the vaccines under the Freedom of Information Act.

“The Commonwealth for some reason chose, in responding to the FOI applications, to not disclose the identity of the people who made the decisions,” Mr Villa told the court.

“When you have documents that contain information but the names of the author of the document, the recipient of the document are redacted, it becomes very difficult to follow the flow of information and that itself creates an information asymmetry.”

Mr Villa said that as the proceedings had now commenced, he was unable to pursue obtaining those names by other means.

Justice Nicholas Owens responded that the problem was the Class Action didn’t have enough information to bring their claim and plead it properly.

“The problem was you didn’t have enough information to decide whether or not you could bring a claim,” he said.

The outcome of the interlocutory hearing, held on Thursday and Friday, will determine whether the injured can progress to having their case heard.

The class action was filed against five respondents:

• Former Health Department Secretary Brendan Murphy,

• Former Health Department Deputy Secretary and TGA head John Skerritt,

• Former chief medical officer Paul Kelly,

• Former Health Minister Greg Hunt, and

• The Commonwealth of Australia.

On Friday, Mr Villa intimated that the claims may no longer be pressed against former Health Minister Greg Hunt.

One of the sticking points is the Commonwealth argued that the four named respondents are not responsible for the decision to approve the covid gene-vaccines, even though they were the heads of the relevant agencies.

Australian Government Solicitor senior executive lawyer Alison Thomson wrote to the applicants’ lawyers in November 2023, saying none of the decisions to approve the vaccines were made by any of the Commonwealth officers, according to Justice Katzmann’s previous interlocutory judgement, here.

Ms Thomson requested more particulars, and Justice Katzmann granted extra time.

The staffer who makes the final decision on whether to register a vaccine or not is the “Delegate” of the Secretary of the Department of Health, and operates within the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).

The Health Department has been secretive about its internal decision-making processes, redacting the names of the Delegates who green-lit the controversial gene-based products.

The Government has never released the Delegates’ names.

This creates a Catch-22, a bureaucracy straight out of a Franz Kafka novel, as Government solicitors demand the exact names that the Government itself won’t release.

Queensland GP Dr Melissa McCann, who is spearheading the Class Action on behalf of the covid vaccine injured, appeared in Sydney for the hearings.

Friday’s session ended at 11.45am with a touch of anguish in the air. It was a rough couple of days for the injured who have been battling for years to have their crowd-funded case heard. They now face the prospect of having their efforts cut off before its substance can be heard.

The case awaits Justice Owen’s decision as to whether it may continue.

CONTROVERSY OVER JAB PRODUCTS

The Federal Government is widely perceived to have been duplicitous in its promotion of the covid gene-vaccines, assuring the public of a transparency and accountability that is not enforceable in the courts.

The products were pushed in a panic for a relatively mild virus that had a median infection fatality rate comparable to influenza at 0.07 percent for people aged under 70, study here.

The Morrison Government’s vaccine policy from 2020 stated that the TGA had responsibility for the safety monitoring of the covid gene-vaccines and that it would launch an investigation if it suspected a safety issue.

But no serious public investigation was ever launched into the safety of the covid gene-vaccines despite more than 144,000 injury reports and over 1000 reports of death to the Database of Adverse Event Notifications. That’s more than for all other vaccines in history combined.

The 2020 policy document also states that the Federal Government was responsible for: “selecting and purchasing vaccines”, and “formally accepting vaccines from suppliers and ensuring that they meet the required standards”.

Whether “responsible” means anything under law, as a court-enforceable reality, is now under the spotlight.

Most of the gene-vaccine injured and bereaved have been abandoned without any support from the government’s narrow and restrictive compensation scheme (now closed) that only recognised 10 injuries out of thousands of possible conditions caused by the novel products, six of which were for AstraZeneca.

Many of the injured face life-changing and debilitating conditions that doctors are unsure how to treat.

The mRNA products are still on the market despite calls from thousands of scientists and doctors worldwide to suspend their use on safety grounds, while factories have been built to produce more.

Every publicly released Delegate’s Overview for the covid gene-vaccines has had the individual Delegate names redacted under the personal-privacy exemption in the FOI Act.

Pfizer’s Delegate’s Overview for BNT162b2 (Comirnaty) used for initial provisional approval was published 11 January 2021, and released under FOI here.

AstraZeneca’s Delegate’s Overview for ChAdOx1-S (Vaxzevria) was published 28 January 2021, and released under FOI here.

Moderna’s Delegate’s Overview for mRNA-1273 (Spikevax) was never released under FOI.

Moderna has a “special relationship” with the Health Department, which suspended procurement rules for its taxpayer-funded $3 billion Melbourne factory, according to a report from the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO).

The Moderna contract lasts until 2032 with secret ongoing yearly costs to the taxpayer.

Health Department Secretary Brendan Murphy set aside normal procurement rules on 7 December 2021 for the Moderna factory on the grounds of “human health”, without any alternative requirements for how procurements would be conducted, unlike the Department of Industry Science and Resources, the ANAO report said.

The Health Department’s “special relationship” with Moderna, exempting it from normal procurement rules for their ongoing contract, continued to apply as of June 2025, the ANAO said.

Comments will be switched off as this is a court story and I’ve not enough time to moderate.

For more stories related to the Covid Vaccine Class Action, and the injured, see the links below.

The pair made unsubstantiated claims about bereaved mother Raelene Kennedy and villified the Forest of the Fallen, set up by volunteers to acknowledge those harmed by the covid gene-vaccines, as “grief farming”. Link here.

The June 30 podcast capped a month-long campaign by the pair to humiliate those who shared their stories of gene-vaccine injury.

Here’s a breakdown.

ATTACKING A MEMORIAL

People injured by the covid gene-vaccines were censored heavily from 2021 to 2024, leaving them isolated and alone.

There are now more than 144,000 injury reports and over 1000 death reports logged in Australia’s safety monitoring site, the Database of Adverse Event Notifications.

That is more than every vaccine in history combined.

Forest of the Fallen sprang up to acknowledge them.

It was devised by a Tasmanian mum: a silent memorial for those damaged by the jabs who have been bullied, ignored, gaslit and dismissed.

It’s not a coroner’s report. It’s a way to help people share their stories at a time of intense state oppression.

Annie McCubbin and The Gherk want to crush those voices, and so they set about deliberately sabotaging it.

Below is a video of Annie McCubbin approaching a Forest of the Fallen memorial in Dee Why on Sunday, May 24.

McCubbin is seen aggressively photographing the memorial picture of Barry Schultz, a doctor from Adelaide who died 18 days after his first Pfizer jab.

Volunteer Rosemary Marshall who helped set up the display challenges McCubbin, calling her a “serial pest” and “friend of the Gherk” before telling her to go speak to the relatives of the injured.

After the altercation, McCubbin derided the display on her podcast with The Gherk, who has been attacking the stories of the injured on Facebook and Substack.

INSULTING A GRIEVING MOTHER

Raelene Kennedy has been fighting an endless battle to have the death of her daughter Caitlin Gotze properly investigated.

Caitlin, 23 and healthy, fell ill immediately following her second Pfizer jab and never fully recovered before dying six weeks later. The coroner blamed her death on asthma.

Annie McCubbin and The Gherk discussed Caitlin’s case on their podcast.

They did not name her, but it was obvious to anyone familiar with the story exactly who they were talking about.

The Gherk claimed one of Caitlin’s siblings and the sibling’s friend, both unnamed, had said they were “gutted” and that Caitlin’s death was being “used”.

He claimed “the mother” (Raelene) had been an “anti-vaxxer”, while Caitlin had been “pro-vax”, implying the family was against her efforts to seek justice for her daughter, who would have disapproved.

Raelene was devastated. She immediately wrote a clear response on her Substack, link here.

“Many of the claims made about my daughter, my family and myself are false, unsupported by evidence, and directly contradicted by documentary records in my possession,” she wrote.

Raelene was traumatised by the insinuation that her family was against her.

“Of particular concern is the repeated assertion that the speaker was contacted by siblings and friends of my daughter and that those individuals provided information contradicting my account … The implication conveyed to listeners is clear: that family members and close friends reject my account and support his.”

Raelene said she had spoken to her family and no such contacts occurred.

The pair had not even contacted Raelene to get their facts straight, she said.

Raelene told Cafe Locked Out that instead she had reached out to them on Facebook and Substack, but they blocked and ignored her. Link here.

McCubbin’s podcast wasn’t The Gherk’s only attack on Raelene and Caitlin.

On June 1, a week after McCubbin disrupted the Forest of the Fallen memorial at Dee Why, The Gherk wrote a Substack on them. Link here, archived here.

In it, The Gherk discusses myocarditis and makes medically ignorant claims.

As Dr Paul Oosterhuis told Cafe Locked Out, it is clear he just doesn’t understand the science. Link here.

For example:

“But myocarditis has a pattern. It usually appears within a relatively short window after vaccination, often within days,” The Gherk wrote.

This is untrue.

One signature of mRNA vaccine damage is that it produces tiny focal points of scar tissue in the myocardium, too small to be diagnosed, which can interfere with the electrical signalling needed to beat the heart, as Dr Oosterhuis explained.

When high-intensity exercise stresses the heart months or even years later, those foci can short-circuit it. It doesn’t have to be within days and it doesn’t have to be young men or teenage boys.

There are plenty of people walking around with ticking time bombs in their chests now, thanks to Pfizer and Moderna’s mRNA covid jabs.

Caitlin had some symptoms of myocarditis, as noted by the coroner and one of the expert reports, but The Gherk and his hatchet crew claimed on Facebook that “The suggestion that her heart was enlarged or inflamed is not substantiated in any released findings”. Link here.

They couldn’t get their facts right. All they had to do was talk to Raelene.

Caitlin was a healthy 23-year-old Queensland woman who loved horses.

At her age she had zero risk of severe covid but she was forced to take two injections to keep her Queensland racing job.

After her second Pfizer mRNA jab she was so ill that she couldn’t get out of bed for four days. She remained sick off and on until she died six weeks later, at work.

Caitlin went to the hospital with shortness of breath. The hospital assumed it was asthma but did not do the tests that would have revealed a vaccine injury such as myocarditis: no d-dimer, no troponin, no ECG. They ignored her eosiniphil levels at 20 times normal which suggested a severe immune inflammatory response from the jab, and they didn’t look at other potential causes, as Raelene says here.

They assumed it was asthma and gave her asthma drugs.

The Coroner’s report attributed it to asthma, but Raelene disputes this finding, because the hospital and the coroner were too quick to exclude the gene-vaccine from consideration. She wants them to investigate the Pfizer jab thoroughly as a potential distal cause of the chain of events that ended in Caitlin’s death.

Raelene wants justice for her daughter.

This is perfectly reasonable: Caitlin was healthy prior to the medication.

DISHONESTLY SUBMITTING FAKE STORIES

“The Gherk” boasted on McCubbin’s podcast that he had deliberately submitted fraudulent stories to discredit the Forest memorial.

“I and a few others have submitted quite a few of these fake stories,” he told Annie McCubbin.

“We’ve got two through that we know are completely made up, and they’ve used fake medical terms. I will reveal them at a later point.”

“The Gherk” said he had done this to see if there was a rigorous vetting process, and concluded there wasn’t.

Forest of the Fallen takes its stories from published accounts in mainstream media, and from Jab Injuries Australia volunteers.

The volunteers aren’t perfect but they do their best with the time they have.

There are ambiguous cases with vaccine injury, and some might be mistaken.

But the vast majority of more than 500 stories are from unacknowledged people who know very well what has injured them, and who will never qualify for compensation. The government gave the vaccine-manufacturers legal indemnity and restricted the compensation scheme to 10 narrow conditions.

For every one that is mistaken there are hundreds more unacknowledged and real stories of injury out there.

Every time the display is set up, people walk through and talk about what happened to them and their friends. The injured are everywhere. They are people you know.

Rosemary Marshall interviews them and puts them online, which is why Big Pharma wants it shut down.

TOBACCO “DOUBT TACTICS” DESTROY THE INJURED

The Gherk’s influence ring exploits the fact that its very difficult to prove medical causality in cases of vaccine injury and death without testing for the distinctive vaccinal spike.

This is done by pathology staining of tissue samples called immunohistochemistry. This process is described for autopsies here, archived here.

It is reasonably straightforward to do this, but it is not done in Australia, because the authorities don’t want to know. They want plausible deniability and doubt, since they are responsible for the problem.

This is the same tactic the tobacco industry used to pretend that cigarette smoke did not cause lung cancer. Link here.

They looked the other way to not see evidence, and falsely spread doubt about harm, deploying brownshirts in front groups to push public opinion.

The Gherk’s ring set up a Facebook page called “Forest of the Fallen Laminated Lies” to discredit, mock and cast doubt on the stories of the injured.

For example, they attack the commemoration of 40-year-old Damien Engler.

The Queensland father-of-four had no prior history of heart problems.

He was found dead in his bathroom with an enlarged heart the morning after his Moderna booster.

His story, shared by his mother Lin Jennings, has been stamped “inconclusive”.

The “Laminated Lies” Facebook page concludes, without expertise, that there’s no direct proof that the vaccine was to blame.

“The claim hinges entirely on timing and emotion, with no diagnosis tying the death directly to the vaccine,” they say.

They call it “medically murky” before casting about for any other possible idea that could replace the most obvious suspect.

“The most likely explanations? An undiagnosed cardiac condition. A seizure-related event. Medication interactions. Maybe even a combination.”

Maybe it was the tooth fairy.

How do you think his mother feels on reading that. She knows very well. That’s why she told his story.

“If new evidence comes out, we’ll reconsider... but until then, this is grief searching for a villain,” said The Gherk’s gang. Link here.

Prove it or it didn’t happen.

That is the tobacco industry tactic of injecting doubt.

Yes, heart attacks happen.

But The Gherk and his gang are lying about the burden of proof.

New, provisionally authorised products are not given the presumption of innocence.

It’s not for the family and victims to prove that the product was the cause.

The burden is on the new, poorly tested product, to show that it was not the cause.

When someone drops dead the morning after a novel injection that was not properly safety tested, every effort is to be made to investigate the product as the only factor that changed.

This did not happen for the covid gene-vaccines.

Doctors and coroners looked to the proximal cause and blamed it on that, ignoring the distal cause, the vaccine injury, that ultimately led to the death.

In almost every case you could blame a vaccine injury on something else, which is what The Gherk’s hatchet-page does. They insult almost every victim with a red stamp “highly likely false”

For those who were injured, having it acknowledged has been an impossible battle.

Government propaganda and censorship surrounding the covid gene-vaccines discouraged doctors from speaking up, as Dr Kerryn Phelps described.

This included direct license threats by AHPRA and the Medical Boards against healthcare professionals who voiced concerns.

The situation was so bad that in 2022 a break-away medical union, the Australian Medical Professional Society (AMPS), held a “Stop Medical Censorship” tour across the nation, as President Christopher Neil described here.

CoVerse, a group representing the injured, repeatedly told of how doctors would treat symptoms without acknowledging the gene-vaccine injury.

It has been incredibly difficult for the vaccine injured to get a definitive diagnosis. Sometimes it takes years.

CoVerse describes it as “medical abandonment” and the injured face an uphill battle for any awareness of the problem. Link here.

Despite this, The Gherk and his goons demand scan results, discharge notes and extensive documentation for every memorial page, otherwise they conclude it’s all “classic anti-vax tropes”.

If only they had set the evidenciary bar that high for their own unscientific claims.

The Gherk told a credulous McCubbin that covid has a higher rate of myocarditis than the jabs, without any reference to the peer-reviewed studies that show the exact opposite, such as the large-scale retrospective cohort study that said:

“We did not observe an increased incidence of pericarditis nor myocarditis in adult patients recovering from COVID-19 infection.” Link here.

DEFINITIVE PROOF HAS BEEN SABOTAGED

There are two definitive ways to quantify the covid vax damage. Both were sabotaged.

The first is in the safety arm of the placebo-controlled, randomised control trials.

Both Pfizer and Moderna destroyed their safety testing in December 2020 by unblinding the trials and destroying the placebo group even though the trials still had years to run.

There is no safety testing if there is no placebo group.

All you are left with is post-marketing surveillance, and that’s murky. You can always blame it on something else - which is what The Gherk and the TGA both do.

You can’t tell if there are more heart attacks and neurological problems in the placebo group than the control group after five months, or a year, if you destroy the placebo group at 2 months. There’s nobody to compare it to.

These trials were rubbish anyway because they tested a product made by a different manufacturing process than the one the public got, which makes a huge difference in biologics.

The second way to tell the carnage is by comparing the all-cause-mortality figures in the vaccinated versus unvaccinated, stratified by age. That’s easy to do. The Health Department just needs to pull statistics from a couple of different agencies, de-identify it and put it out. Not hard. They haven’t done it in five years despite multiple requests.

The rational conclusion is that they don’t want to know.

Very helpfully for the government, The Gherk doesn’t want you to know either.

Why might that be?

ANONYMOUS AND THEREFORE DISHONEST

There’s no way to know if “The Gherk” has a conflict of interest such as ties to Monash or Melbourne universities who profit from the RNA industry.

He may be a subcontractor to a government department with a history of suppressing dissent such as Health or Home Affairs. They have an interest in defending the unsafe products they promoted.

“The Gherk” is anonymous, so there is no way to tell whether he has financial connections to the billion-dollar vaccine industry, a PR firm or a political party.

He may be employed by one of the many Big Pharma funded NGOs, lobby groups or research institutes such as Medicines Australia, Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, Burnett Institute, Wellcome Trust or Gates Foundation.

Anonymous sources are not accountable.

That’s why journalists are not supposed to use them.

Anonymity is only for whistleblowers exposing crimes at severe personal risk, not for political headkickers.

The Gherk has about 65,000 followers on Facebook and about 15,000 on Substack, which indicates he is a professional, perhaps a cog in Permanent Canberra’s machine.

Which reminds me of CookerWatch. We can judge them by what they do. Their function is to break apart people who organise against the powerful. They ensure that Australian democracy is as phony as a three-dollar bill.

Annie McCubbin’s podcast, however is named and known.

It is sponsored by COUP, a company she co-founded with her husband, David, an actor who works with senior executives as a “corporate dramatist”, teaching them to perform for an audience.

COUP runs training workshops for big corporations.

David lists vaccine-makers Sanofi, AstraZeneca and Merck as his former clients, along with Bayer which has a pharmaceutical division. Link here. Archived here.

Annie’s podcast defends and promotes the products of these companies, and the government policies that bulk-buy and mandate them, by attacking vaccine critics.

Neither Annie nor David responded to requests for comment on whether their ties to these Big Pharma clients are still current.

Public response by Annie McCubbin and the Gherk uploaded to Annie McCubbin’s Facebook page overnight Monday 6 July / Tuesday 7 July

UPDATE: 10 July 2026

On reflection I think there are three lessons to be taken from this episode:

1. What Annie McCubbin, Australian Skeptics and The Gherk don’t understand, is that what they are looking at is not widespread public lunacy, but evidence of the complete breakdown of Australia’s drug safety system. This is what it looks like.

   
   Australia’s system is largely dependent on voluntary, poorly advertised self-reporting. The public doesn’t know, and doctors aren’t paid for the extra time to do it. This became crucially important in 2018 when the law was changed to allow provisionally approved products on the market. These drugs had not passed all the testing required for full authorisation. They were given a black triangle on the box to remind everyone to report injuries. It was never advertised, so the public didn’t know.
   
   The covid panic broke this system entirely with a combination of truncated and bogus safety trials, government propaganda, fear marketing, public-private tie-ins for government, and licensure bullying of doctors.

   
   Australia’s drug safety system has been completely broken by years of corporate lobbying and this is the result.
   

2. Forest of the Fallen volunteers realise that there are malevolent people who will try to sabotage their displays such as Snarky Gherkin. Also, there are genuinely mistaken people, people who make up stories for attention, for fun or because they have mental health issues. They exist - remember Belle Gibson?
   
   Volunteers need to make effort to weed these bad actors out, because they damage the credibility of the injured.
   
   It’s never going to be perfect, and most injury cases are ambiguous due to the factors discussed above.
   
   It’s inevitable that some bad actors will slip through, simply because volunteers don’t have the time and resources. This does not reduce the importance of the memorial, which is a much-needed acknowledgement for the many people who have been injured by the covid gene-vaccines.
   

3. Culture matters. The drug cartel has spent decades cultivating a culture of vaccines as a “miracle of science” that cannot be questioned, with critics of the covid gene-vaccines dumped on the scrapheap as “antivaxxers” and “cookers” despite being correct about “The Science”. People pretending spoons stick to them, for example, feeds this propaganda, and is most likely started by PR firm black ops, acting for those who profit.
   
   For decades, the drug cartel has cultivated a collegiate relationship with Health Department bureaucracy including the drug regulators supposed to police them.
   
   The TGA’s annual budget was roughly $15 million, and most of their costs were recovered from industry on a fee-for-service basis. By contrast, Pfizer and Moderna made US$100 billion off the worldwide sales of their gene-vaccine alone. The largest in history.
   
   The problem is not the government, which is supposed to work for you. The problem is the government is dwarfed by these corporations. For decades the public’s organs have been gutted, infiltrated and subverted by a giant mafia drug cartel. Break the corporations into smaller competing businesses (as Roosevelt did to Standard Oil) and there might be a chance that the government returns to its normal functioning.
   
   The drug cartel has paid front groups and individuals to interface with the media, where time-poor journalists make use of seemingly “independent” experts and talent given freely on press releases. Professors Paul Griffin, Robert Booy, charity activists Catherine Hughes, Kate Vines. Journalists need to start googling who is funding the talent, their organisations. What boards are they on. Organisations like the Immunisation Coalition are front groups. Then there are the research organisations, who cheer-lead the industry that funds them: Burnett Institute, Murdoch Children’s Research Institute. The universities are all feeding at the RNA trough particularly Monash (Moderna factory) and Melbourne. You think you’ll get critics when you use their media contacts for a story?
   
   Journalists are the gatekeepers of culture and this is their failure. I’ve documented two episodes of this: RSV and Whooping Cough.
   
   Forest of the Fallen is a handful of volunteers doing their best to help with the resources they have.
   
   Media professionals, by contrast, have been letting us all down for years.

Thousands of covid vaccine-injured Australians have been given new strength today after the Federal Court of Australia discussed dates for their class action to proceed.

It has been a long road for the bereaved. They were pushed aside by the government at every turn, and they struggled with repeated submissions in their attempts to get justice through the courts since April 2023.

In April last year, Justice Anna Katzmann gave their crowd-funded class action one last chance to overhaul its pleadings with a new legal team.

Queensland GP Dr Melissa McCann re-invigorated the case with Dominic Villa SC who represented the injured at their case management hearing in Federal Court today before Justice Nicholas Owens.

The New Chambers barrister is the leading Sydney silk who helped Queensland police and ambulance staff challenge the covid vaccine mandates in 2022, as reported here.

And they won.

In a brief no-nonsense session, dates were discussed for the next court appearance, either for July 23 and 24, or if that is not possible, September.

Hope and positivity radiated from Dr McCann outside the Law Courts Building on Friday, now the case is alive and moving after three years.

“You can see everything’s been done properly and it’s a new beginning,” she said.

More than 2500 people have signed on to the class action so far. Some have lost relatives and others were maimed by taking the shots.

The joy on the faces of the injured outside court said it all.

Romen Savesk, 39, who suffered heart damage after taking Pfizer’s covid product was visibly relieved.

“I’m fighting this,” he said.

Anthony Rose, 49, whose name headlines the case, braved a packed elevator up to room 19B - but like many he still struggles with his injuries and had to leave.

Just getting there had been a victory for him, he nearly turned back twice.

“It’s great to see the support,” he said.

The father-of-two from Sydney took one shot of Moderna’s mRNA vaccine on 8 October 2021 and suffered severe cognitive impairment, chronic fatigue, altered cardiac function and vision changes among other problems.

Many of the injured were trying to watch the session via livestream but it wasn’t working.

High-profile cases including radio hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O, and Hollywood star Rebel Wilson were chewing up the attention, creating media chaos around the court.

There have been more than 140,000 injury reports for the Pfizer, Moderna and Astrazeneca covid gene-vaccines made to the Database of Adverse Event Notifications since the products were rolled out, and 1050 reports of deaths.

The Therapeutic Goods Administration says reports do not necessarily mean the product is responsible for the injury. This is true, but the voluntary system is also known to be under-reported and the TGA does not investigate the reports to determine the cause. Many medical professionals acknowledge that the reported cases are just the tip of the iceberg.

The Federal Government pushed the novel gene-vaccines on the public during the covid panic and gave the manufacturers indemnity, taking on the liability for any injuries.

It then restricted compensation to a narrow claims scheme, now closed, that only acknowledged 10 injuries out of hundreds of possible conditions. This excluded most of the injured from accessing the help they desperately needed.

Pfizer had told the TGA of more than 1200 different conditions in people who had taken BNT162B2 Comirnaty across 1.3 million case reports that it received worldwide by 16 April 2022.

Australians injured by the poorly-tested products were unable to raise the alarm during the covid panic. Social media platforms used AI to censor them and mainstream media refused to tell their stories for fear it would discourage others from taking the shots.

Doctors, threatened by AHPRA and the Medical Boards in a March 2021 directive, were often dismissive towards the injured.

The Covid Vaccine Class Action is one way that people can help the injured and hold the government to account - so that it doesn’t happen again.

Authors Cam Wilson and Ariel Bogle are touring the libraries, giving talks.

The book is shaping the thinking of high-school teachers who use it together with works by Randa Abdel-Fattah to mould their innocent students.

This is unfortunate.

Australia desperately needs a book to show people how to think critically, when so much nonsense is thrown around the “freedom movement” on Telegram, and in the nation’s universities.

But instead comes Conspiracy Nation, a megaphone for a hard-left clique of Melbourne activists (at least one of whom uses a fake name) to smear Australian nationalists as racist, murder-adjacent “white supremacists”.

If you like your country and flag, if you went to March For Australia or CPAC or voted for One Nation, if you opposed the government policy of mandatory covid gene-vaccines (that didn’t work) - then you are the target of Conspiracy Nation.

This book will make the public hate you and view you as dangerous.

How Melbourne anarcho-communists shape this book

The leftist clique haunting the pages of Conspiracy Nation includes anarcho-communist blogger Andy Flemming, Cam Smith, Tom Tanuki and their friend Jordan McSwiney, an academic.

These four anti-fascist warriors of Naarm are quoted more than a dozen times through the book as if they are experts instead of motivated activists.

Tom Tanuki (a “Tanuki” is a Japanese raccoon dog) creates “Yelling At Racist Dogs” videos, including a 2017 clip, archived here, in which he screams and chants that Jewish journalist Avi Yemini is a “tiny racist dog”.

Just like his friends, Tanuki thinks March For Australia was a “Nazi-led mobilisation” and ponders rock-throwing and combat-training in “Physical resistance, rocks and how to build a mass movement”, archived here.

Both Cam Smith and Jordan McSwiney are thanked in the Conspiracy Nation credits as among those who read chapters and provided advice.

These two co-write submissions to parliament, such as this one from February, which bangs on about how Pauline Hanson is a threat to democracy. They build a pseudo-intellectual case with a litany of academic references for why it is that some fake Nazis and the red-headed firebrand from Queensland are a dangerous threat to society, but Islamic terrorists shooting 15 people dead at Bondi are not.

What they really want is to censor and destroy nationalist or populist political movements before they even form, so people don’t express themselves at the ballot box in ways that they don’t like. They aren’t shy about this.

These are the “experts” whose views populate the pages of Conspiracy Nation.

Fleming, who uses the name “Slackbastard”, hosts a 3CR Melbourne radio show with Cam Smith. They’ve had Bogle and Wilson on the show together and separately.

Radio 3CR refused to confirm to Letters From Australia whether Cam Smith and Andy Fleming are using fake names.

Cam Smith says his name is hidden simply by being so common - but “Andy Fleming” really is a fake name, as he told Vice here, archived here, and as Cameron Wilson somewhat ambiguously says here, archived here.

Fake-name Fleming hates “so-called Australia” and calls Melbourne “Naarm”.

He thinks the nation is on stolen land - but also that borders shouldn’t exist, so the stolen land should be given to everyone in the world. Anarchy!

He hates British colonists from 1788 but loves Islamic colonists from 1998 – and if you don’t agree then he wants to punch you in the face, Nazi!

He calls March For Australia “white nationalists” on a “March For White Australia”, even though the original protest was attended by Aussies from all walks of life, many of them immigrants themselves.

The Guardian and the ABC, which Bogle and Wilson write for, describe “Slackbastard” as a “researcher of the far right” and let him use their mastheads anonymously as if he were a courageous whistleblower in fear of his life.

But Slackbastard knows real Nazis are marginal in Western Society, because he told Vice that in 2014.

“Fleming” appeared on 3RRR’s “punch a Nazi edition” with Qatari migrant Nabil Al-Nashar who now works for the ABC. Bogle and Al-Nashar paired up for an MEAA talk in October, at which Al-Nashar told the young journalists it was OK not to report what March For Australia protesters actually say, when “we know” they are just “racists”, as I documented here.

Al-Nashar is not ashamed of slanting protests against excessive migration as “racist”, even though his own wealthy former country Qatar gives zero citizenship to migrants. Al-Nashar told 3RRR on September 4 that he went to March For Australia with his opinions already set by prior research, and saw it as his job to “call out their falsehoods”.

And why would he be ashamed of crusading in news, when his peers all approve?

That’s what Conspiracy Nation does. All the way through. This book tries its absolute hardest to associate people whose views this milieu doesn’t like with violent killers and Nazis, in order to make them seem dangerous and sinister.

Drawing dots that aren’t connected.

Just exactly what they accuse everyone else of doing.

A Nazi pops out under every bed: surprise!

There’s a Nazi hiding in every chapter - like Where’s Wally! for communists.

A whiff of Nazi even seeps into the unlikely Northern Rivers region in Chapter 7: Off Grid, amid the hippie retreats. Here we find: “fluoridation is Jewish”.

In this chapter the authors have a crack at the skeptics of the Australian Vaccination-risks Network (AVN).

The AVN’s position is presented as an emotional appeal to “nature” even though what they actually provide is a dissenting scientific opinion, and information about Australia’s coercive vaccine laws.

Bogle and Wilson trot out Canadian leftist Naomi Klein - an author and activist, not a medical professional - to opine on the moral engine that drives those who reject vaccines.

It’s selfish individualism. Surprise!

“Among those promoting vaccine hesitancy or skepticism, there’s often little mention of the health of the whole, not just the individual or family unit,” the medically ignorant Klein says.

“When we get vaccinated against diseases that pose a greater threat to other members of our communities than they do to us, we are saying that all people, no matter their bodily impairments or challenges, are of fundamentally equal value and have a right to equally access the public sphere and a good life.”

Collective! Community! Equality!

Klein clearly has no idea that rejecting a vaccine has no effect at all on other people if it doesn’t stop the spread of disease.

Many vaccines can’t do anything to prevent transmission and so have no role at all to play in "protecting other members of our communities”.

Vaccines that only protect the individual who takes it, and not other people, include tetanus, shingles, acellular pertussis (whooping cough), flu and all the covid gene-vaccines.

Klein has no idea, and it doesn’t seem that Bogle or Wilson do either or they wouldn’t have quoted her while looking down their noses at the AVN.

But that’s why the book hates anti-vaxxers. It violates leftist morality about sacrificing the self for the commune.

At the February 24 author’s talk at Waverley Library, Bondi Junction, I challenged Wilson and Bogle on their use of Klein as a commentator on vaccine ethics, on which she was flat-out wrong, and on the book’s targeting of influencers like Pete Evans who lost his job, rather than the government who took away their livelihoods for no reason, having exaggerated a virus.

To his credit, Cam Wilson answered, and said it was worth questioning, as there hadn’t been a good reflection yet on covid and what we can learn from it.

“I welcome questions around this stuff and I think we should not follow dogma,” he said.

In Wilson’s defense, this book appears to have been largely written in 2023, and many people especially in the mainstream media echo-chamber were simply unaware of the basic facts that the “freedom community” knew years earlier: that covid was greatly exaggerated and that the gene-vaccines were dangerous and useless.

Conspiratorial thinking: but only when you do it

Cam Wilson and Ariel Bogle begin Conspiracy Nation by explaining conspiratorial thinking.

It is connecting dots that are unrelated, distorting reality.

It is the confirmation bias that comes from selectively seeking only the evidence that confirms your prior assumptions, which are therefore more likely to be wrong.

This is excellent, we do need to examine exactly this – including the Freedom Movement where exaggerated narratives ricochet through Telegram and are never corrected but quietly dropped for the next exciting thing.

It’s the best part of the book, in the first few pages.

But then the authors set about doing the exact same thing they accuse everyone else of.

Only it’s worse, because Wilson, a Crikey editor, and Bogle, a Guardian journalist, at times misrepresent even the “dots” in order to conflate ordinary Australians who oppose mass migration with terrorists and murderers.

For example, they miscast Christchurch murderer Brenton Tarrant’s manifesto as “a white supremacist document” to be understood as part of a “transnational white power movement” (p.57), which the book then broadens to smear all of Anglo-Australia.

This is a distortion, and the book’s faulty reasoning flows from this distorted premise.

Tarrant is a terrorist who shot 51 Muslims dead across two Christchurch mosques in March 2019.

His manifesto, emailed to the media eight minutes before the attack, spells out a grievance narrative of ethnic, cultural and racial replacement by mass migration, steeped in paranoia about “ensuring the future of the white race”.

But the document clearly states that what motivated him to turn to violence was the murder of 11-year-old Ebba Akerlund in Stockholm, Sweden.

Tarrant was travelling in France when Islamist terrorist Rakhmat Akilov deliberately rammed a truck into pedestrians, killing Akerlund and four others in April 2017.

He also saw the ageing French outnumbered by energetic young migrants everywhere he went, so when former Rothschilds banker Emmanuel Macron, a globalist, beat nationalist Marine Le Pen in the 2017 elections, he decided a political solution was not possible.

“These events turned my thoughts from pursuing a democratic, political solution and finally caused the revelation of the truth, that a violent, revolutionary solution is the only possible solution to our current crisis,” the manifesto said.

The Christchurch attack was a combination of a revenge attack on Islam and the desire to provoke a violent revolution against an “invasion” of European lands, according to the manifesto.

The subsequent New Zealand Royal Commission acknowledged this is what the manifesto said.

It is important to be accurate, which is why manifestos need to be made public: to prevent them being twisted for agendas. The public needs to know.

Conspiracy Nation takes the racist part of Tarrant’s manifesto and makes it the whole.

This is the fallacy of composition.

And then they broaden it to smear all Anglo-Australian culture, portraying Tarrant’s violence as “soaked in Australian racism” because he used the words “cobbers” and “top blokes” on 8chan (p.67-8) - even though he acted alone and was reviled by a horrified nation.

Aussies are racist and Christchurch killer-adjacent

To support their case, Conspiracy Nation cites Kathleen Belew (p.57), an American “white supremacy historian” and “anti-racist” who, like the book, recasts everything as race. Including the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

Conspiracy Nation references Belew’s chapter “There are no lone wolves: the white power movement at war” in the book A Field Guide to White Supremacy.

Belew gets the death toll wrong at 49 before expanding Christchurch as “not a lone wolf attack or the work of a few isolated radicals. It was, again, part of the white power movement, a broad ground-swell that has joined people together in common purpose, social relationships, and political ideology.”

It is disrespectful to the Christchurch victims to use their murders to push an American race-war bandwagon, but that is what Belew did.

Belew’s chapter used Christchurch to pick at the US race-wound, bolstering her own fight against a portmanteau bogeyman that “formed in the United States after the Vietnam War, using narratives of violence and the symbols and weapons of that conflict to bring together Klansmen, neo-Nazis, skin-heads, and other white radicals.”

Completely detached from Australian reality. Imported straight into Conspiracy Nation.

The NZ Royal Commission considered Tarrant’s broader social context and concluded he was a lone actor, regardless of 8chan and his donations to far-right causes.

He did it all by himself.

Tarrant was a racist, an ethno-nationalist and a white separatist - and his violence did not reflect broader Anglo-Australian attitudes.

Australia is not a racist country. Tarrant, who acted alone, was reviled by Australia.

But that’s not what Bogle and Wilson write. They make the case that Tarrant’s murders were the fault of “Australian racism”.

It appears to be Ariel Bogle who does the most to twist Brenton Tarrant into a smear for Australia.

When I put these points to her via email, she did not respond.

But at the Waverley Library author’s talk, Bogle repeated this position.

After describing Brenton Tarrant’s crimes, and putting them in the locus of Great Replacement theory, Bogle said she wanted to bring Tarrant home so Australia would “own” him as an “Australian terrorist” and then said conspiratorial language was “just a cover for racism”.

Islam is not a race

Chapter Four: White Genocide is determined to conflate race with religion, and not just to smear all of Australia as “racist”, although it certainly does that.

Conflating Islam with race is central to the red-green alliance of the left and Islam.

So Chapter Four talks about “white” and “Islam” as if they are opposites. It’s as though they haven’t heard of Chechenya, or the ginger jihadis.

Race is a genetic characteristic over which you have no control and should never be judged. Religion is a set of beliefs. If you can convert to it, then it is not a race.

But the red-green alliance insists that Islam is the oppressed “brown man” fighting whitey and so that is the assumption of this book.

Chapter Four frames the “Clash of Civilisations” as “white Westerners are being eradicated by other races” (p.58), as though the authors never heard of the Foreign Affairs essay penned by Samuel P. Huntington in 1993.

“Islam has bloody borders,” he wrote, correctly, in The Clash of Civilisations?

It has nothing to do with race. It’s about civilisations that are completely incompatible and have been at war for 1400 years during which time Islam has taken 56 nations, wiping out the indigenous cultures and faiths. These countries co-ordinate politically through the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation.

Islam is a rules-based and politically organising ideology, not just a private religion, and it comes with an inbuilt legal system enforced by sharia courts, which Muslim communities seek to develop when they reach a large enough size.

Bogle and Wilson ignore all this to conflate Islam with race.

But Islam is not just at war with the West. It’s at war with all non-Muslim civilisations including the great sub-continental patrimonies of the Buddhists, Sikhs and Hindus.

This could have been a problem for Chapter Four’s racialisation of Islam, so the authors address it in a shallow way, which leads them into error.

They wobble into an Indian example of the “conspiracy theory”of “Love Jihad” which suggests that Muslim men are luring Hindu women into marriage with the aim of converting them to Islam as part of a plan to subvert the Indian nation. (p.59)

This isn’t a conspiracy theory, it’s Islamic expansionism. Allowing a Muslim woman to marry outside Islam may put her (and any children) at risk of leaving the ideology, as explained here. But not for men – because men are the boss of the family in Islam.

This is why in many Muslim countries, Muslim women are not allowed to marry non-Muslim men, for example: Qatar, the UAE, Pakistan, Iran, Egypt and Indonesia. And of course Saudi Arabia, which would punish it with the death penalty.

But marriage of Muslim men to non-Muslim women is encouraged as a form of conversion and expansion, for example in Malaysia, where the government even paid Muslim men to marry Orang Asli tribes for conversion, as the South China Morning Post reported here.

Don’t they know this?

It’s only a small departure, however, in a chapter that is all about framing Australians as a bunch of white racists who produced Brenton Tarrant.

Too many “whites” in Griffith

Tarrant came from Griffith, NSW, a regional town populated by people born in Australia (66 percent), India (9.3 percent) and Italy (3.3 percent), according to the 2021 Census. Aboriginal people are 6 percent of the population.

So Bogle and Wilson portray Griffith, in the words of a local reverend, as “just white” or “white as”.

This book wants Anglo-Australians racialized, to fear being seen as Tarrant-adjacent white supremacists.

Conspiracy Nation weaponises Tarrant against the ordinary Australians who they don’t like: conservatives, nationalists and Pauline Hanson supporters.

That’s why they led off Chapter Four with a speaker from CPAC Sydney, 2023.

Elijah Schaffer, a US podcaster, told the conservative conference to stop being afraid when the left calls them “Nazis” and “racists” for resisting unfettered immigration - just mock them back.

Schaffer said it because “racist” is the exact weapon that leftists, communists, globalists and Islamists use to break public opposition to the government’s insane policy of infinity migration.

Wilson and Bogle move the needle even further by painting ordinary Australians as Tarrant-adjacent proto-terrorists, a tactic deployed in parliamentary submissions by the red-green alliance as I have documented before on this Substack.

Conspiracy Nation then gives fake-name Andy Fleming a free kick at the Aussies, elevating him amid the cherry-picked academics.

“Fleming tries to place movements and events such as the Christchurch attack in context … ‘It’s undeniable that they’re reacting to the broader mood.’” (p.69)

The “broader mood” meaning “so-called Australia” is racist and that’s what’s to blame.

Despite a token reference to Malcolm Roberts (in “The 28”) and John Anderson (in the Port Arthur chapter), this book does not balance itself.

It very clearly strings readers up a Marxist race-war path, guided by the far-left “Fleming” clique.

LIST OF ISSUES THAT MAKE THIS BOOK PROBLEMATIC

Some points that I put to Wilson and Bogle via email for right of reply (they didn’t get back).

As I said in the email: they are good journalists, I write this review in the hopes they will improve, and next time don’t let a clique of Melbourne leftists run their brains.

1. Nazis (the obsession of Andy Fleming, Cam Smith and Tom Tanuki) are introduced as often as possible through the book so readers associate anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists, opponents of mass migration and Pauline Hanson voters as nazi-adjacent and sympathetic to white supremacists, even when they are not.

2. The racist-smear association is backed by cherry-picked academic research such as Gillespie, Liam and Ghumkor, Sahar. “Conspiracy theories, racial liberalism and fantasies of freedom”, Law and Critique (2024), which conflates the Convoy to Canberra against covid gene-vaccines and lockdowns with “white supremacism” and claims (without evidence) that the protesters’ motivation was to performatively refuse to comply to assert “white” freedom because of their “imagined status as exalted subjects of the white nation.”
   This is not evidence of Australian racism, it’s evidence of poor quality control at Melbourne universities.

3. The book itself connects dots that aren’t connected, and makes errors that flow from false assumptions.

4. Lauren Southern, p.71, is presented in racialized terms, going to Lakemba to expose it as a no-go zone for “white” people. This is in error.
   She is on video saying she would expose it as a no-go zone for “critics of Islam”. Further, the book claims locals refused to be drawn into her stunt. This is in error, she was blocked on video from walking down Haldon St by NSW Police because they feared the reaction by the “very religious” locals.
   Ex-Muslim Harris Sultan has the video and republished it here.

5. Red Herring misdirection on sharia courts, p.71 – a fact check in the Conversation” was used to make a QandA questioner look silly to be concerned that a Muslim majority could vote in sharia law. This is a misdirection as it doesn’t take a majority to lobby and get sharia courts, and this has already been lobbied for in Australia under the guise of “legal pluralism” as Joshua M. Roose knows very well.

6. Australia is not “stolen” land, p.75 – another reframing of history that is not accepted. Australia wasn’t “stolen” it was settled. Colonisation was complex and experienced in vastly different ways. An informal trade can be said to have occurred in which Aboriginal people gave up some (not all) land in return for the built environment and modern technology and social systems of organisation.

7. Chapter 5: Expose the 28 – discusses cultural Marxism, Jordan Peterson, in the same context and continuum as La Rouchism, anti-Semitism, mass murderer Anders Breivik, and Nazi group Stormfront - putting unconnected dots in the same basket to form a smear-narrative. This is intellectually dishonest because Marxism did indeed re-frame itself in cultural and intellectual circles as “oppressor vs oppressed” to take advantage of the civil rights movement and adopt race war as a way of selling its unpopular ideas. Which this book itself does, inserting racism at every opportunity.

8. Chapter 6: Freedom Fighters: p.106, error of fact – quote “They also wanted to protest against 5G mobile networks and vaccinations (long before covid-19 vaccines existed).” No, the gene-vaccines did already exist and were in Phase 1/ 2 combined clinical trials in Germany and the US. Source: Pfizer (Germany) and Pfizer (USA)

9. The lunacy around 5G is conflated with opposition to the gene-vaccines as a way to tarnish reasonable positions with silliness, this is an obvious tactic used by media to deter the public from listening to dissident movements and political opposition.

10. P.107, Fanos Panayides FaceBook page 99% Unite as the example: “starting in April 2020, 99% unite grew in a month to have more than 37,000 members, counting Covid-19 deniers, QAnon believers, the anti-government, pseudolaw practitioners dubbed sovereign citizens, and others among its cohort. It was a match made in heaven.”
    It was not a match made in heaven – it was a match amplified to discredit opposition to government policy using psychological warfare tactics from units such as the UK’s 77^th Brigade, whose actions were not confined to Britain, as the internet publishes everywhere. Australia had similar through Home Affairs, but we won’t be able to see it for another 25 years after which it may be declassified. They didn’t just engage in censorship but also in smears.

11. p.106 – The crowd chanted “arrest Bill Gates” – the authors appear unaware of Gates’ extensive and central organising and lobbying role in the promotion of the covid gene-vaccines through his network of NGOs. Of course, if you don’t know anything then people complaining would look incomprehensible to you.

12. p.109-110 re-telling of the Shrine of Remembrance protest. Protesters were at the shrine because they loved it and it stood for the freedoms they thought their country stood for. They did not urinate on it deliberately and leave rubbish everywhere, they ran away as they were shot in the back by rubber bullets and militarised police backed by armoured vehicles.

13. P.116 – Convoy to Canberra was 10,000 people – disputed figure. You give the official figure but I was there and I saw it. It was way more than 10,000. It looked like a million people but was probably somewhere in excess of 100,000. There is drone footage online. The official figure was downplayed by authorities for obvious reasons.

14. p117 – “Nuremburg trials was a conspiratorial ‘trope’ that threatened violence.” Wrong. The Nuremburg principles forbid medical experimentation on human subjects without informed consent. The Phase 3 Pfizer/Moderna trials were ongoing until 2023, in violation of these principles.

15. The vaccine-injured and bereaved are completely ignored.

16. P.120- unsourced references to FOI and diplomatic cables. If they aren’t referenced then the reader cannot check them.

17. p.124 - dismissal of gene-vaccine injured - “Nor did predictions of mass casualty events from the vaccines (eventuate)” – yes, they did. They showed in non-covid all-cause mortality figures that were hidden when they changed the methodology two weeks before Moderna testified to the Senate inquiry as per here. The Health Department refuses to release the all-cause mortality stratified by gene-vaccine status for 2021, 2022 and 2023. The casualties showed up in thousands of injury reports to the DAEN which, although not all are caused by the products, this is more than offset by the low levels of reporting. The voluntary system that broke under the covid propaganda was already known to be extremely under-reported. We still don’t know the numbers because the reporting system is broken.

18. Chapter 7 – Off Grid - Unrelated dot-connecting: “fluoridation is Jewish” – really? The book is going to bring Nazis in to the Northern Rivers?

19. Pertussis vaccine errors: p.141- error of fact, states the whooping cough vaccine in the 1970s “gained a reputation for having serious side-effects … later demonstrated to be unrelated to the vaccine. This is an error. The authors’ own reference from Fanget in Nature, 2020, states: “the whole-cell pertussis vaccine causes rare but significant side effects.” So the book can claim that the study says the neurological effects were not due to the vaccine but that does not mean there were not other serious side effects.
    This is exactly why the whole-cell products were dumped in favour of the acellular pertussis vaccines made by GSK and Sanofi - and these products DO NOT stop transmission. The authors don’t include this fact, misleading the reader.
    The referenced source itself says the acellular pertussis products do not stop transmission: “in countries using DTaP there is now a resurgence in cases of whooping cough”.
    The other study quoted by the authors is Cherry, Jama, 1990 (too old) and it only talks about neurological illness, not other serious side-effects.
    So the pertussis vaccines are entirely misrepresented, both historical and present.

20. P.141-7 attack on the AVN as inspired by “nature” “purity” and “emotion” rather than fact. They reference a large body of research to support their position. They rely on disputed science, not a “conspiracy theory”, the AVN have been misrepresented.

21. p.145-6 –Naomi Klein (not a doctor but a left-wing author and activist) is quoted revealing the author’s preferred narrative which is that those who reject vaccines are motivated by individual selfishness against the ‘greater good’. This is a fallacy based on the incorrect assumption that vaccines always protect others by stopping transmission. Because the authors are uninformed they have made the same error they accuse AVN of doing: using Klein to push a moral argument for taking vaccines that isn’t based in fact.

22. Chapter 9: --p.179 – error of fact – terra nullius “Mabo undid the fiction that Australia was empty and belonged to no one when it was colonised by the British – the idea of terra nullius” Terra Nullius did not mean the land was empty. It meant there were many tribes and clans, who were fighting often among themselves, and even within a group it could be difficult to know who was the leader who could be said to represent everyone. The colonists didn’t know who had the authority to negotiate – unlike in NZ where the British were able to sign the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840 with over 500 Maori chiefs who were united enough to enable a process of multiple signings over several months. Terra Nullius meant there was no clearly identified leader with whom to negotiate. NOT that the land was empty.

23. Chapter 10 – Activated Almonds – Pete Evans, who supported Trump, retweeted a meme with an obscure nazi symbol hidden in the design of a butterfly’s wings, and was therefore said by media at the time to have been supporting Nazis, as a natural evolution of Trump supporters, and was drummed out of his career.

    

    Evans said he didn’t know what it was – which is reasonable, since not many people did. It’s quite obscure. Once understood, the meme is actually an anti-Trump message that smears Trump supporters (caterpillar) as one day going to become evil Nazis (Black butterfly with sonnenrad symbol). So Evans is unlikely to have knowingly retweeted something against his own cause. The authors are themselves pattern-seeking where there is actual evidence against intent.

24. The authors don’t bring up “Apophenia” to defend Pete Evans after his career and income were destroyed by it. They bring it up on p.222 to condemn Sovereign Citizens. Apophenia is just another word for “Pareidolia” - the tendency to see meaningful connections between unrelated things.

25. Cam Wilson goes undercover at Pete Evans retreat and enjoys the food, hospitality and friendliness - but then the chapter goes on to paint him as a grifter for trying to rebuild his livelihood - p.218 “In one way, the retreats represented the culmination of Evans’ influence: convincing followers to spend thousands of dollars to spend time with him after he had spent years raising doubts about the science of what we put in our bodies.”

Corrections/edits: 10 March - “Flemming” corrected to “Fleming” although does an inconsistent spelling have meaning on a fake name? I fixed it anyway. March 11: edited a couple of paragraphs for clarity without changing the meaning.

One month after telling readers that pertussis vaccines can stop people giving whooping cough to babies (they can’t), the Sydney Morning Herald misrepresented the killer drug Vaxzevria as much safer than it really was.

The story, headlined Why eight Australians died after having AstraZeneca’s COVID vaccine, claimed researchers had “cracked the mystery of lethal blood clots” so that new jabs could avoid the problem of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT), which killed “in total, eight Australians”.

Vaxzevria was responsible for 492 death and 48,512 injury reports to Australia’s Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN), despite being on the market for just two years according to search results in February.

Reports are preliminary and do not necessarily mean the drug is the cause of the reported death or injury, however this is outweighed by the vast under-reporting of the voluntary register.

The Herald led its readers to believe the Vaxzevria toll was limited to 8 fatalities, and those people died because they had a rare genetic variation that left them vulnerable.

This is false.

The DAEN records 7 deaths and 100 cases for “immune thrombocytopenia”, which is the official MeDRA term used to catalogue VITT.

But 43 deaths and 686 cases were reported for the related term “thrombocytopenia”.

There were 11 deaths and 218 injuries for “thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome”.

The TGA dismissed two of these death reports as one was more than 30 days post injection and the other had underlying conditions.

However “blood clots” means much more than VITT, it covers dozens of categories for which injuries and deaths were reported to DAEN.

“Blood clots” also means thrombosis, thromboembolism, pulmonary embolism, venous thrombosis, deep-vein thrombosis, cerebral venous sinous thrombosis, cerebral artery thrombosis and many more.

There were more than a hundred AstraZeneca deaths from blood clots reported to DAEN.

There were 56 deaths for pulmonary embolism, 47 for heart attacks (often caused by blood clots), 41 for Fibrin D dimer increased (micro-clots in the blood), 38 from “cerebrovascular accident” (which means stroke, commonly caused by blood clots).

A further 13 deaths were listed for “thrombosis” (blood clots) from 319 cases.

A further 29 deaths were reported for deep vein thrombosis (blood clots) from 1128 cases.

A further 13 deaths for “myocardial ischaemia” (when the heart loses oxygen because of blood clots), from 21 cases.

A further 83 of these deaths were reported as “adverse event following immunisation”, so any number of these could have been caused by blood clots.

In addition to this are the unknown (and now unknowable) number of people who died of blood clots caused by this injection but whose deaths were simply accepted as “heart attack” or “stroke” or “thrombotic event” without ever being reported to the TGA as a suspected gene-vaccine death.

The only way to show the true scale of the problem is to request the all-cause-mortality figures for 2021, 2022 and 2023 stratified by age and AstraZeneca gene-vaccine status.

The Department could organise this but they have refused to do so for four years so far.

Vaxzevria was provisionally approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) on 15 February 2021, and made unavailable on 21 March, 2023. Its approval continued on paper until AstraZeneca “voluntarily” withdrew it on 23 April 2024, allowing the company to save face.

The Herald used the heartbreaking tragedy of the Vaxzevria death of Katie Lees to introduce its story, painting the product that killed her as safer than it really was.

Katie Lees, 34, had no need to take the AstraZeneca product as the median infection fatality rate for someone her age was only 0.011%, according to a team of researchers including the world’s most respected and cited epidemiologist John Ioannidis from Stanford University.

The beautiful and talented Lees died because she was encouraged to take a medical product that she did not need, to achieve a government target that was not useful since the covid gene-vaccines could not stop transmission - all of which was known to science in 2021.

This vibrant young woman, full of life, died because a medical product was misrepresented as safer than it was, and necessary when it wasn’t, an error repeated again by the Herald here.

If you want to make a complaint for breach of Australian Press Council principles, complaints may be made here.

Large-scale under-reporting broke the drug safety system

Contrary to public perceptions, the TGA has not ruled out a causal link between a large number of reported deaths and the covid gene-vaccines.

The TGA did not refer all covid gene-vaccine deaths to the Vaccine Safety Investigation Group for discussion, as Rebekah Barnett reported on Substack, archived here.

“Contrary to widespread belief, the documents show that the TGA does not thoroughly investigate every death reported to the DAEN. This is even the case where people died on the same day that they received their Covid shot,” Barnett reported.

The system is voluntary and vastly under-reported. If you don’t tell them, they don’t know.

Prior to 2021 there were less than 1000 reports made by practitioners per year, as reported in pharmaceutical journal Australian Prescriber.

During the covid panic the reporting system broke due to the exaggerated fear of the virus, propaganda promoting the products as safe, and the threatening of doctors by licensing boards.

Autopsies were never encouraged to establish causality for the covid gene-vaccines.

Only a tiny fraction of problems were ever reported due to a lack of public awareness – which means there are likely to be more, not less, deaths and injuries than the DAEN shows.

The Herald ignored an emailed request for comment.

The TGA ignored emailed requests to provide the exact number of Vaxzevria blood clot deaths reported in total, the number of Vaxzevria deaths reported to VSIG and how many investigations had been completed.

Selectively answering questions from approved and friendly outlets only is a strategy used to cultivate compliant reporting, and is just one strategy among many that governments and their departments use to marginalise adversarial and independent media.

Edits/corrections: 2 March - added link to prior story on SMH misrepresenting whooping cough vaccines. Changed par 2 to replace “The Age” with “One month after telling readers” since it was both The Age and SMH that ran that pertussis story.

Experts know that whooping cough is enjoying a resurgence precisely because the newer acellular injections do not stimulate the mucosal immunity needed to prevent bacterial colonisation and transmission.

It’s vaccinated people with mild symptoms, complacent and unaware, who are spreading Bordetella pertussis to vulnerable infants.

But Bridget knew her family would believe the newspaper and not her. Now they would see her as a scary threat to her treasured granddaughter, Pippa, born in 2025.

“See – it’s there in the newspapers,” said Ms Green, 67.

“I know they’re wrong - but of course they believe what’s in the paper. It’s ludicrous.”

Even before last week’s story came out, Bridget had a tough time.

Prior to covid she took all the recommended shots, but the AstraZeneca product injured her in 2021 so she didn’t want to get any more.

Her family put the pressure on for a pertussis booster, mistakenly believing it could protect their new baby girl.

“I thought I wouldn’t even be able to see my granddaughter,” the retired sub-editor said at Bondi on Wednesday.

“I took rubber gloves, a mask, I said I’d wash my hands before holding the baby every time – I was desperate as I thought I wouldn’t be allowed to see my granddaughter or hold her. It’s desolation - that feeling of loneliness. I’m so much on the outer.”

Bridget is no more of a risk to her granddaughter than anyone else.

Vaccinated people also spread whooping cough, because the vaccines do not stop transmission.

This is well-known to science, for example in peer-reviewed research published by the flagship journal of the US National Academy of Sciences, PNAS.

Frontiers in Immunology published a peer-reviewed paper in 2019 called Pertussis Prevention: Reasons for Resurgence, and Differences in the Current Acellular Pertussis Vaccines by more than 15 mainstream scientists that found the following:

“Finally, aPV pertussis vaccines do not prevent colonization. Consequently, they do not reduce the circulation of B. pertussis and do not exert any herd immunity effect. These findings at least partly explain the resurgence of pertussis.”

A pertussis vaccine can only protect the person who gets it from severe illness for five to 10 years. It does not prevent the spread or protect anyone else.

All the Sydney Morning Herald needed to do was a simple Google search: “Can pertussis vaccines prevent all transmission?” and they would have known.

The newspapers were wrong, but the damage was done.

Both The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald demonised unvaccinated people as baby-killing disease-spreaders, based on no evidence at all. Story here (paywalled), archived here.

A February 2 editorial then repeated the false claim and it was spread around social media by Australia’s most respected media royalty including ABC 730 journalist Quentin Dempster.

Whooping Cough is caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis.

Pertussis vaccines can reduce disease severity for between five and 10 years after which time boosters are given, as the Australian Immunisation Handbook shows.

The claim is sometimes made that pertussis vaccines can reduce transmission by reducing disease severity.

This is also false. Dangerously false.

When vaccinated people with a false sense of security experience mild symptoms they can pass the disease on to vulnerable newborns, unaware they are even infected.

New research from 2024 shows the vaccinated may even be increasing the spread of the disease by forming an asymptomatic bacterial reservoir.

By contrast, when unvaccinated people catch whooping cough they develop obvious symptoms, and stay away from newborns.

Once they recover they have durable and superior natural immunity that lasts 15 to 20 years before it wanes, double the length of vaccinal immunity. They also get mucosal immunity which injected vaccines cannot provide.

This makes those who have recovered from whooping cough less likely to pass on the disease than those who have only had a vaccine.

This is not an advertisement for children to catch whooping cough without a vaccine. It’s a nasty illness. But the Health Department and media outlets are supposed to report accurately on what products can and cannot do, not to push drugs and demonise people.

Australia’s Health Department is also guilty of creating the false impression that vaccination prevents the spread of whooping cough.

The Immunisation Handbook claims pertussis is “highly infectious in unvaccinated people” without mentioning it can also be passed on by vaccinated people.

It goes on to say “Older children and adults who have not received pertussis vaccination are at risk of infection, and are often the source of infection in infants” without stating that vaccinated people are also a source of infection.

It promotes “vaccination as scheduled” regardless of whether a person has recently had a lab-confirmed infection - despite knowing that such an infection confers 15 to 20 years of immunity, “because natural immunity does not provide lifelong protection”.

Australia’s Health Department thus spruiks an injection that gives five to 10 years of protection to people who are already protected for 15 to 20 years, because it’s not “lifelong”.

Let that sink in. It is just as stupid and absurd as it sounds.

Both the Health Department and Nine Newspapers ignored media requests for comment.

Letters From Australia reached out to Niroshini Kennedy, president of paediatrics and child health division at the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP), who was quoted in the SMH story as expressing concern that “vaccine hesitancy” could lead to an increase in whooping cough numbers, among other illnesses.

She did not reply to emailed questions on whether she had made it clear to journalist Kayla Olaya that whooping cough vaccines cannot prevent transmission.

The RACP has a charity foundation through which it disburses grants to researchers and students, bringing influencers within its network.

The RACP Foundation says on its website that it partners with GSK, a major pertussis vaccine supplier.

GSK said in a media release that the partnership is to create a research fellowship to further medical research in respiratory medicine and “vaccine-preventable disease”, which supports the market for its products.

Just because GSK pays the RACP Foundation does not mean the RACP deliberately spruiks vaccines to journalists. But such gifts create cultural pressure within organisations through the norm of reciprocity.

Informed consent cannot be made under duress

The false “baby-killer” claims were made in the context of a Nine Newspapers investigation into parents bribing health practitioners to falsify vaccine records to avoid the jabs.

Perhaps the newspapers might investigate why the federal government is using coercive measures to force people to take medical interventions, which violate the rules of valid consent stated in its own Immunisation Handbook.

Medical coercion is deeply unethical whether it’s “no jab no play”, or “no jab no work”, or withholding family payments. A patient cannot give valid, informed consent to a vaccine if the decision is made under that kind of duress.

If Nine is looking for system rorters, look no further than Big Pharma: here is Sanofi’s pre-Budget submission, asking for hundreds of millions of dollars for provisionally approved medications and to cut regulations so their clinical trials don’t have to be so rigorous.

Nine Newspapers’ “baby-killer” claims have openly breached Australian Press Council principles of accuracy and balance. Complaints may be made here.

BILLION-DOLLAR BUSINESS

Australia’s pertussis (whooping cough) vaccines are money-spinners for global drug giants GSK, based in the UK, and Sanofi, based in France.

The most commonly used ones are Boostrix, Infanrix and Infanrix Hexa made by GSK; and Adacel or Tripacel made by Sanofi.

GSK’s turnover figures for calendar year 2023 show Boostrix earnt £614 million ($1.2 billion) while Infanrix/Pediarix earnt £554 million ($1.1 billion) worldwide. Pediarix is now superceded by Infanrix Hexa.

Sanofi doesn’t break out individual products, but its fourth quarter earnings report for 2024 reported global polio/pertussis/HiB and booster vaccine sales were €632 million ($1 billion), an increase of 10.8 percent on the previous year, driven by booster demand to re-vaccinate adolescents and adults.

Adult vaccines have been identified by the global drug industry as big future earners in Australia.

GSK launched a report at Parliament House, Canberra, in 2023, asking for more adult vaccines to go on the national immunisation program so your taxes can buy them in bulk, fast-tracked without delay.

Demonisation of adults who refuse vaccines is part of corporate fear-marketing strategy.

GSK launched a nasty multimedia campaign in 2015 for its whooping cough product showing a grandmother, like Bridget, as Little Red Riding Hood’s “big bad wolf” with sharp teeth ready to rip into a defenceless baby.

Media lack of skepticism about medical product claims can be seen in the marketing campaign for RSV - a disease never before regarded as a public health threat, as I documented here.

The drug companies use Australia’s media for free advertising. They scuff their feet all over our newspapers.

Because journalists lack medical expertise or the time needed to properly evaluate claims, it’s easy for cashed-up corporates to push their agenda past the gatekeepers, to be repackaged as “news”.

Loading up the schedule

Australia has followed America’s lead and loaded up its vaccination schedule with unnecessary products, such as Engerix B, a Hepatitis B shot given routinely to every baby in the first 24 hours of life.

What possible benefit does a four-hour-old baby have from a Hepatitis B shot that protects against a disease spread primarily by sharing needles and sexual contact?

You can see the Australian schedule here.

Australia has followed the example of the US since 1986 when the Reagan Administration passed a law exempting drug-makers from injury liability for any product on the childhood immunisation schedule, and instead setting up a taxpayer funded compensation scheme.

As a result, this provided a risk-free market for drug-makers who then pressured health bureaucrats to stuff the schedule with as many products as they could.

In 1984 before the legislation was passed, there were just eight diseases with vaccines on the US schedule: tuberculosis (BCG), diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, measles, mumps, and rubella.

By 2024 there were 17 different diseases requiring multiple shots and boosters.

The US schedule is now being overhauled under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy jr.

As of January, six diseases have been dropped from the “routine universal use” recommendation. These are: Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, influenza, rotavirus, meningococcal, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

The recommendation has been changed to “shared clinical decision-making” which means patients can make an informed decision in consultation with their doctor, according to their individual needs – which is how medicine is supposed to be.

The Australian Government should follow suit, and stop publicly funding products of dubious value such as the flu vaccine.

In 2018 the Cochrane Collaboration reviewed 52 clinical trials of flu vaccines and found only doubtful evidence that they do any good whatsoever.

AUSTRALIA’S WHOOPING COUGH VACCINES

Australia’s pertussis vaccines are all combination vaccines, with antigens against several diseases in the one injection.

The most commonly used are from GSK and Sanofi.

GSK sells the diptheria-tetanus-pertussis products Boostrix for adults, and Infanrix for infants.

GSK also sells Infanrix Hexa which combines Infanrix with hepatitis B, polio, and Haeomophilus Influenzae type B (HiB). The Health Department promotes this from six weeks of age on its childhood schedule.

All these GSK products have three pertussis antigens. The full ingredients for Infanrix Hexa can be seen here.

Sanofi sells Adacel for adults and children over 10, and Tripacel for babies.

Adacel contains diptheria and tetanus toxoids and five pertussis antigens, with the adjuvant aluminium phosphate, the Immunisation Handbook says.

Tripacel contains the same ingredients but at much higher doses, the Immunisation Handbook says even though it is given to babies under 12 months who have far smaller bodies.

Pertussis vaccines used to be made from a whole dead cell of the bacteria Bordetella pertussis.

These products caused injuries including severe neurological disorders, which led to a fall in vaccination rates, as the Cochrane Collaboration reports.

They were replaced by less effective acellular versions which contain only a few antigens instead of the whole bacterium, in an effort to reduce side-effects.

A 2014 Cochrane review looked at six safety trials and 52 efficacy trials for acellular products.

Cochrane evaluated the acellular vaccines against lab-confirmed whooping cough, both typical (21 or more consecutive days of severe coughing) and mild (7 or more consecutive days of cough).

The reviewers found acellular vaccines with three or more components (antigens) were 84-85 percent effective at preventing typical whooping cough and 71-78 percent effective in preventing mild whooping cough.

They found those with only one or two components were 59-78 percent effective against typical whooping cough and 41-58 percent effective against mild disease.

Airborne viruses and bacteria enter the body through the mucosa of your eyes, nose and mouth. Mucosal immunity is your body’s first line of defense. All of these products are delivered by intramuscular injection, which cannot provide mucosal immunity: instead they provoke blood-borne antibodies for systemic immunity.

Immunologists recognise that intramuscular injection is a dumb method of delivery due to this limitation and are working instead on products that are either inhaled, delivered by nasal spray, or swallowed.

To understand more about how the immune system works, see this excellent talk about mucosal immunity from Professor Emeritus Robert Clancy in conversation with Dr John Campbell.

Update: 4 February, 2026: turns out Catherine Hughes, the bereaved mother in the SMH story who blamed the unvaccinated for killing her baby with whooping cough, is a vaccine advocate who channeled her grief into activism, started the Immunisation Foundation of Australia which is funded by Sanofi ($170,000 in 2023 as per here) and GSK ($100,000 in 2025 as per here), and has been a spokeswoman for GSK, appearing in their press-releases for example here, where she promotes GSK’s RSV vaccine to seniors that don’t need it.

The popular lad was a junior life saver at North Bondi Surf Lifesaving Club, when he went to Nielsen Park on Sunday, January 18, to enjoy the summer with friends.

He had been jumping off a well-known rock ledge just after 4pm when a large shark, thought to be a bull shark, attacked without warning, ripping into both his legs.

Nico hung on for a week before he died. His heartbroken parents put out a statement on Saturday, January 24, to thank everyone who helped their son and asked for privacy, as ABC reports.

On Sunday morning hundreds gathered at North Bondi to say goodbye to the kind and generous boy who loved football and the surf.

Tears fell off Ben Buckler as the smell of bushfire haze and mourning settled on the rocks.

People wept openly for the beautiful lad, and spoke quietly in small groups. The sadness was palpable.

It’s the second horror to befall the North Bondi Surf Club in as many months, with lifesavers rushing in under live fire to save the victims of the December 14 Islamist shootings.

Nico was one of four people attacked by bull sharks off NSW beaches in just two days, the others were:

• An 11-year-old boy was knocked off his surfboard by a bull shark that took a 15cm chunk out of his surfboard at Dee Why, just after 11.30am on January 19.

• Surfer Andre de Ruyter, 27, had his leg amputated but survived after he was mauled while surfing at Manly just after 6pm on January 19. Fellow surfers dragged him from the water at North Steyne and applied a tourniquet while giving him CPR.

• Surfer Paul Zvirdinas, 39, suffered minor leg injuries after being bitten at Point Plomer near Port Macquarie on the NSW North Coast on January 20.

  

  In the previous 12 months there have been many other shark attacks, both minor and fatal, including:

• Surfer Mercury Psillakis, 57, died after being mauled by a great white shark which took his entire bottom half off at Long Reef just after 10am on September 6.

• Surfer Steven Payne, 37, died after a great white shark attacked him at Wharton Beach near Esperance, WA. His body was not recovered but a drone footage confirmed the attack on March 10.

• Surfer Lee Berryman, 50, survived being bitten twice on the leg by a bronze whaler at D’Estrees Bay, Kangaroo Island, South Australia about 1.30pm on October 7.

• Surf lifesaver Charlize Zmuda, 17, died after being mauled by a shark while swimming at Woorim Beach, Bribie Island just before 5pm on February 3.

Large shark numbers have increased over the last few decades as a result of the ban on fishing for Great Whites under Commonwealth and state legislation since the 1990s, and the removal of large-scale commercial shark fishing licenses for other species which used to supply the pet food industry.

Years of propaganda based on shoddy academic research has given lawmakers the false impression that these predators are endangered, as Fred Pawle has shown in his excellent free documentary Heart of Sharkness on YouTube (below). Support him here.

The NSW Government is trying to phase out shark nets, according to their shark management policy.

Nets have protected city beaches for decades by preventing sharks setting up territory.

Instead the NSW Government wants to replace them with inadequate “non-lethal” measures such as drones, so your attack can be seen from the air.

They also like “smart” drum-lines to catch dangerous species such as tiger sharks, bull sharks and great whites.

Once caught, dangerous sharks aren’t turned into pet food. They’re tagged and released so they can remain a threat, and so that researchers can get grants to study them further.

The authorities also want to remove shark nets a month early, at the end of March, because of pressure over by-catch of other species such as turtles.

After the spate of recent incidents, NSW authorities are spending more money on ineffective measures so they can be seen to be doing something.

So the NSW authorities have added an extra $4.2 million to programs, including shark tagging and monitoring and the installation of listening stations in the harbour, as Daily Mail reports.

Drone patrols have been extended to the end of the April school holidays, covering 30 more beaches in Sydney and along the NSW coast.

We don’t need this. We need nets, a cull and the reintroduction of large-scale shark fisheries for pet food to reduce the numbers of large sharks near city beaches.

Here’s our story, first person, because it was my flag that got broken.

Everyone’s heritage is important to them. Australia Day on January 26 is important to me.

We had a picnic in Hyde Park, Sydney, to celebrate, just like we did last year. Only this year we were attacked by a racist calling for “white genocide”.

He tried to rip my flag down and when Rosemary Marshall confronted him, he said he hoped the white genocide would happen because we were all “c*nts”.

“F*ck your flag,” he said.

Then he then came back for seconds. He tore down my other Aussie flag, flying near the Captain Cook statue, and broke the pole in front of shocked tourists and families with young children.

Our friend Dana ran him down in bare feet and a dress, rescuing the flag.

The broken pole was immediately fixed into a tiny new flag with a bandana which I gave to a little girl who loved it. She was Chinese. She ran around waving it with delight.

Her tiny toddler sister helped raise our other flag up when the wind blew it over.

That racist lefty should be free to say whatever he wants as long as it doesn’t pose an imminent threat of violence. We don’t need or want hate speech laws to censor us - including views we dislike.

But destroying my flag is property damage and that’s illegal.

And that wasn’t the only attack.

Earlier in the day, a man approached and asked if he could take a photo. We asked where he was from. He took a photo and yelled ‘Shame on you for celebrating Australia Day’. I wasn’t quick enough to get his photo in return, only from behind.

That was quite menacing given hate groups posing as “anti-fascist” are now calling all Aussies “racists” and “Nazis”, and putting mugshots online asking people to ID them. Literally putting people on target lists.

All this while in New South Wales the Minns Labor Government is calling for submissions into “Measures to combat right-wing extremism in New South Wales” - as if ordinary Aussies (who they call “right-wing”) are the problem. Make your submission here now, you’ve got until February 3.

Speaking of NSW Premier Chris Minns, he said: “There will be no tolerance for violence or hate speech on Sydney streets … People have got a right to protest, but other Australians have a right to enjoy the city”.

Oh really? What about my flag. What about the far left? They literally want to abolish Australia.

Australians cannot have a picnic in Hyde Park on Australia Day because of far-left intimidation and violence but he’s on about the “far right”.

Other people were trying to surreptitiously film us. I don’t mind - as long as they’re not haters, I was larking about in colonial dress.

But they are haters.

Carrying my flags home some guy yelled ‘no pride in genocide’ out the window of his car.

Australia Day was never like this 30 years ago. We would go to Survival Day concerts in the 1990s where we would celebrate Aboriginal bands. Warrumpi Band sang “Black Fella, White Fella, it doesn’t matter, what your colour”.

It was never hostile like this.

We watched that huge red-green alliance march past. We saw their banners: Australian Greens, NSW Teachers Federation and Hamas supporters.

This is the state of Australia, after thirty years of mis-education and lies about our history that has disproportionately demonised the colonists and deified Aboriginal people.

There are literally hundreds of taxpayer funded festivals, art awards, workshops and arts grants supporting Aboriginal culture, but nothing at all for the pioneers who carved a city and then a country out of sandstone and scrub, without power tools or air conditioning.

That’s racist.

Only the worst is said of the colonists while only the best is said about Aboriginal people, to the point where this has allowed the red-green alliance to use Aboriginal people as a weapon to attack the rest of us.

We’ve got a whole generation of deluded people who now think anyone who celebrates Australia Day is a Nazi - even though our own grandfathers fought the Nazis.

The most important thing is not to turn this grievance against Aboriginal people. It’s not their fault - many of them despise this hostile movement that claims to represent them (but doesn’t). We are Aussies together.

There are divisive forces at play that want to polarise our nation and set us fighting each other.

It’s good we celebrate Aboriginal culture. We must also respect our colonial heritage.

I will never surrender.

I will celebrate Australia Day exactly on January 26, because that is the day Governor Arthur Phillip planted the British flag in Sydney Cove to start the camp that became a country.

This is not an insult to Aboriginal people - we built this country together.

For Aboriginal people it is not a day of mourning. It’s the day they collided with the modern world after 40 to 60,000 years in the bush, fractured into hundreds of tribes that often fought each other with extreme violence.

Aboriginal people lived a stone-age life before British settlement. That is not an insult, it takes resilience and courage to survive such a hard life.

In the tropical sweats of the Top End, Aboriginal people sometimes slept on a platform over a fire to keep the clouds of mosquitoes away with smoke.

Sure, it’s a solution - but ask yourself: would you prefer to sleep in a bed, in a house with no mosquitoes, and a tap with running water, or on top of bushfire smoke? Well - so do most Aboriginal people.

They traded some land for modernity. That isn’t theft. It’s an unofficial trade.

I’m not saying one type of life is better than another.

The last uncontacted Aboriginal tribe walked out of the Western Desert in 1984. The Pintupi Nine marveled at glass and running water - but three of them went back. Modern life isn’t for everyone.

The British could not work out who owned the land or who was the spokesperson with authority to negotiate formal treaties because there were competing tribes with different languages and complex social structures that the British had no way to understand. Many clans were fighting each other - which is still true today.

This is now misrepresented in the worst possible light.

Those British settlers are demonised as genocidal baby-killers. No, they weren’t. That doesn’t tell the story truthfully or fairly.

Our history has been so distorted that the day they landed is called “Invasion Day” and a “Day of Mourning” and we are told we cannot celebrate January 26 at all.

Australia Day is our heritage.

It’s time for a huge broom to sweep through the Arts Funding sector, and the education curriculum, to remove the people who trash us with our own taxes.

Incentivise those who tell the whole truth, not a grievance narrative.

You can’t feed this crocodile. If you change the date, they’ll only come for the flag. Then it will be something else. It’s time to say “no”.

Note on March For Australia: part of the reason the rest of us Aussies are getting demonised as “Nazis” and “racists” is because March For Australia is so careless about letting the astroturf stunt-Nazis in to their rallies where they hold up signs for the cameras and get on the open mic, which is then gleefully seized on by leftist hate groups and reported by the mainstream media as if they represent all of us.

These fake Nazis are being used to rile up the hard left and get them to attack people - and to demonise ordinary Aussies as “Nazis” - and it’s working.

March For Australia needs to find a way to clean up their rallies or nobody decent will go.

Thanks to Rosemary Marshall for the footage as she was quick enough to video.

Here is my own video of Dana chasing down the flag-breaker, including my telling him to go away, in an manner less genteel, in which I say a naughty word, and he says the Australian flag is a “nazi symbol” and that he will burn it.

Edit: 28 January - turning off comments - since I can’t moderate, I don’t want to leave them open in case people abuse it. Also, adding the raw video of Dana’s chase down

Sydney Gazette, Sunday, January 22, 1809

“Between three and four in the afternoon of Sunday last, a genteel pleasure party, at South Head consisting of 14 Officers and Ladies, experienced one of the most general as well as violent electric shocks that perhaps ever was experienced.

The company were preparing to take a cold collation beneath a fig tree; and from the threatening aspect of the weather, intended to make no further delay; several reports of very distant thunder had been heard, but no lightning was yet discernible; when on a sudden a tremendous crash near to where they sat took place, occasioned by an immense ball of fire striking a rock not very distant from the tree, and rending it completely; then glancing towards the sea, threw up a prodigious body of water by its immersion.

The consequences of this surprising phenomenon were nearly fatal to the whole of the above company; a part of the electric fluid being probably attracted by the knives and forks on the table, took its course that way, and at the same instant ten of the company were struck down, some to all appearance dead, and others strangely affected by delirium.

Captain Porteus sensibly felt the shock, but, happily, was not otherwise affected; Mr. Harris was knocked down, and supposed to have been killed, but soon recovered; on the right temple the hair were singed, and his right side and thigh were bruised severely; Mr Sloan was also knocked down, and remained some days in a dangerous and doubtful state; his breast and arm were singed, and much bruised; Lieutenant Laycock received the shock on the right side, and was much lamed; Mr. G. Blaxland had a bottle knocked out of his hand, but escaped hurt.

The principal sufferer, however, was a young Lady, whose head was in a total blaze, and who must have perished in a state of insensibilty had not assistance been at hand.

The fire was extinguished by Mr. Blaxland; but no hope of her surviving could be entertained.

-- She has nevertheless since recovered her faculties; and out of the whole number that felt this tremendous shock, it is a truly gratifying reflexion, that no single individual is likely to bear any lasting mark of its excessive violence.”

Lightning strikes twice

In February 2024, lightning struck a group of people sheltering under a tree at the Botanic Gardens, Sydney, just after 1pm. Four people were knocked unconscious and taken to hospital with burns.

Six ambulances rushed to the scene where paramedics tended to the group including a teenage male, a woman in her 20s, and a man and woman in their 30s.

That is how news is reported these days. BORING.

But in 1809, when the British colony was about to turn 21, lightning struck at Sydney’s South Head. Enjoy The Sydney Gazette - they knew how to report.

Brave Mr Blaxland

Brave Mr Blaxland, putting out the lady’s hair. That could have been either young Gregory Blaxland, then-aged 20, who went on to explore the Blue Mountains with Lawson and Wentworth, or his older brother John Blaxland, who energetically petitioned for the right to trial by jury for the colony.

The federal seat of Blaxland in Sydney’s southwest was named after Gregory. It has been colonised by Islam since the 1980s and is now 31.7 percent Muslim as of the 2021 Census.

Blaxland borders Immigration Minister Tony Burke’s seat of Watson, which was 25.1 percent Islamic as of the Census, and the seat of Fowler (7.5%), which contains the Bonnyrigg home of Islamist shooters Sajid and Naveed Akram, who murdered 15 people at Bondi in December.

Labor MP Jason Clare now holds the seat of Blaxland. Alongside Tony Burke, he voted for censorship laws on January 20, sold as a response to the Bondi shooting. In reality they punish anyone who criticises the Islamic State ideology of the shooters and enable further Islamist expansion.

What would the Blaxland brothers have said about that?

Smallpox vaccine attempt didn’t work

Sydney Gazette, Sunday, May 29, 1803

“The experiment of Inoculating for the Cow Pock, lately made by Mr. Savage, we are sorry to say has failed of success - a circumstance much to be regretted; as from the authority of Dr. Lettsom we are assured, that no danger whatever is to be apprehended from this disease, if it may be termed so; and, had the experiment proved successful, the most happy consequences must have resulted to our young Colonists in general, as they would have been ever protected from the variolous infection, to which, uncounted numbers fall victims throughout Europe, and from whose dreadful contagion our remote situation hitherto secures us.”

It wasn’t just Edward Jenner

Edward Jenner is widely credited for inventing the smallpox vaccine in 1796 by scratching cowpox into the arm of eight-year-old James Phipps.

It wasn’t a new idea.

People had been experimenting with variolation for centuries.

“Variolation” was simply “vaccination” but with live smallpox virus instead of cowpox.

It was practiced in China, India, and Africa before being brought to London from the Ottoman Empire by Lady Mary Wortley Montague in 1721, history here.

In 1803, the Australian colonists also tried. But they failed. It didn’t work. They tried a lot of things. It was a very difficult time.

Distance didn’t save them from smallpox

The first smallpox outbreak occurred in 1789 immediately after the colony was first established, and it devastated Aboriginal people.

The British colonists all had some immunity from childhood exposure, but the Aborigines had been isolated for 60,000 years and had no immunity, as Australian Geographic reports.

It is not known how Aboriginal people got infected, but one possible route was the practise of trying to use small amounts of live smallpox to innoculate children, by variolation.

For centuries, people had used pus or dried scabs from a person with a mild case of smallpox to innoculate children via their skin or nose.

Surgeon John White had brought variolous matter in a sealed glass bottle on the First Fleet in order to variolate children born in the settlement.

It is possible they tried to help Aboriginal children by variolating them, although there is no record of this.

The early colonists blamed the French. French explorer Comte de La Perouse had also arrived in January 1788 and anchored his ships in Botany Bay for six weeks for replenishment. During that time one of his company died, and was buried.

The smallpox virus remains infective for years when embedded in dried scabs and so it may have been brought in on a scab caught up in cotton, bedding or clothing. Both the British and the French were keen to trade goods with the natives.

Recent attempts to accuse the British of deliberately infecting Aboriginal people are malevolent, motivated and without evidence.

In 1788, the colonists were trying their best to make friends with the natives and to build a good place to live.

An 89cm pumpkin

Sydney Gazette, Sunday, August 14, 1803

“A Pumpkin was some short time since cut at the Hawkesbury which measured 35 inches (89cm) In length. Its species is a native of Rio de Janeiro, sometimes yields abundantly, but generally tender and difficult to rear.”

Food is life

A large part of the first Australian newspaper was devoted to how to grow food. Everyone was encouraged to learn about how to make compost from “night soil”, how to grow grapes, or what might be the right breeds of cattle and sheep for the climate.

When the first peach tree in Australia flowered in Sydney, it made the paper.

Food was also the most attractive thing about the new colony for Aboriginal people who had never seen these species before, or European methods of farming food.

Women fighting in the streets

Sydney Gazette, Sunday, August 14, 1803

“On Sunday last a quarrel took place on the Rocks between a number of women, who separated into two divisions, and came to action rank and file.

The noise attracted the notice of the Police, who secured a dozen of the Amazons, and one sturdy fellow, who took an active part in the contest, and acted as generalissimo to both armies.

On Monday a complaint was preferred to the Magistracy, when the parties were severely reprimanded, but humanely permitted to return to their respective avocations, upon a promise of future good behaviour.”

Aborigines throw spears in Pitt St, tug-of-war over dead man’s wife scandalises the colony

Sydney Gazette, Sunday October 16, 1803

“On Sunday last a number of Natives assembled on a ground at the upper end of Pitt’s Row, with a design of inflicting punishment on two men who were directly or indirectly concerned in the assassination of two others who died of their spear wounds.

About an hour before sun‐set the parties made their appearance, and were received by their friends and partizans, who presented each with a target or Coolemon, as a defence against the missile assaults of their adversaries, who instantly arose and approached the intended victims of an ungovernable antipathy and rage.

One of these, known to us by the name of Musquetto, was the first assaulted, and he with surprising dexterity defended himself against 64 spears, all thrown with rancour and malignity, and 17 of which went through the target, some to a depth of nearly two feet.

The 65th and last thrown at him entered the calf of his right leg, and penetrated six inches through.

The spear, which measured more than eight (?). This was cut short before it could be extracted. At the other only nine (spears) were launched, all which he avoided.

A contest afterwards took place between two opposite parties for the wife of one of the deceased.

The exercise of merciless barbarity on this and similar occasions strongly characterizes this wretched race of men, who, but for their barbarous and irreconcileable usages in cases of homicide, would wholly extirpate their already thin and scattered handfuls.

After receiving many severe blows from either party, and having her arms almost dragged from their sockets, the unfortunate ꜰᴀɪʀ (lady) was borne in triumph from the field by an Hibernian Taylor (Irish tailor - Hibernia was the Roman name for Ireland), who probably could sympathise in the sufferings of an unhappy fellow‐creature, notwithstanding all the difference of complexion.”

Wild times in the new colony

Can you imagine trying to cut homes and roads from the rocky scrub - with no power tools, no refrigeration and no going back.

You didn’t know the land, or what was good to eat. There were native people and you had to make friends with them for your own survival, but you didn’t speak their language and their culture was bewildering and often violent.

You had to carve a built environment. You had to dig wells: if you left the cover off, people fell in. Carve stone. Grow food. Dig sewers. Build bridges. Survey the land. Make a parliament, a treasury, a mint, a newspaper.

This was not easy. But the British managed to build the foundations of modern Australia, and they were sturdy.

It was not an invasion, as liars tell children. It was a settlement colonisation.

Everyone brought something to build Australia.

Aboriginal people effectively traded land for a built environment and technology they previously did not have, such as running water and readily available food.

The colonists brought the built environment, agriculture, the social and political structure. All subsequent migrants slotted into this structure. Their efforts helped grow the nation, but the foundations were laid by the British starting on January 26, 1788.

Without them, there would be no Australia.

We should never change the date. No need to protest: just celebrate.

For more wild tales of the colony, see last year’s collection below, including the tale of Daniel Moowattye, the Parramatta lad who went to London.

Australia’s most racist council: City of Sydney

City of Sydney Council has once again snubbed Australia’s British colonial heritage despite 26 January marking the very first origin of the city.

Two years ago Lord Mayor Clover Moore described Sydney as the “first site of invasion”, and stripped a colonial-era flag from a council office as City Hub reports.

Last year, it gave $2 million to celebrate Chinese New Year over 19 days of Lunar festivities, decking the city in red street banners and bus-stop ads while ignoring Australia Day. Not one penny went to celebrate the colony. Money went instead to the Yabun Aboriginal festival, which promoted hating Australia as “200 years of violent colonial dispossession”.

This year, there are no red Lunar New Year street banners. Council did not say whether they were again handing millions to the Chinese festival.

The main drag up William St and past Hyde Park had no street banners at all on Friday night.

Letters From Australia sent a prickly request to City of Sydney, to ask if they would support any commemoration of our British colonial history on Australia Day, but they did not say. Because they aren’t.

Instead, a spokesperson said via email that they were supporting Yabun and “Australia Day events” organised by the Australia Day Council of NSW. That includes the Harbour ferry race, the Tall Ships race, some fireworks, a music concert and several more Aboriginal events like the dawn reflection.

The spokesperson also said they would host a citizenship ceremony for 200 people on 27 January.

That’s the day after Australia Day. That is to show how proud they are of infinity migration from everywhere in the world, except for Britain in 1788.

Everyone’s heritage is important to them.

Snubbing Australia day as “Invasion Day” is racist. It’s about destroying Australia, and it’s paid for by your taxes through arts funding grants.

None of this is the fault of Aboriginal people, most of whom consider themselves Australians. They don’t want this divisive and separatist nonsense.

Dear fellow Australians,

As you know, terrists attacked Bondi before Christmas.

It’s Australia’s fault for not having police every 2m along the beachfront.

We need a Royal Commission.

We must find out who failed to make the beach a militarised zone for Chanukah By The Sea and two surf club Christmas parties.

We’ve taken swift action: 1000 police are on rotating patrol.

Don’t think the “I” word you hateful people: it’s nothing to do with Islam.

Terrists can be anyone “far right” or “violent extremist”, as the Prime Minister said.

They did have a home-made Islamic State flag but we say “ISIS” so people won’t word-associate the religion of peace. That’s what terrists want.

Terrists biggest goal is to stop us enjoying New Year’s Eve. That’s why they bang on about it in Arabic all the time. “We want to stop fireworks”. That’s what they’re saying.

So you can defy them by pretending nothing happened!

Terrists want to divide our multiculturalism. Defy them by welcoming infinity migration. Love conquers terrists, even child brides, alhamdulillah.

We’ll need the ABC and all corporate media to immediately hire visible Muslims. Thank goodness one of four people who ran at the terrists was Muslim. Heroes!

Everyone except Muslims is to blame for the Bondi attack, especially the “far right”. Therefore we are declaring war on “hate speech” and protesting for the “far right”.

That will fix anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.

Diversity is our strength!

Yours Sincerely,

Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, both major parties, the Australian Greens and all of your ruling class, Australia, 2026.

PS: we’re abolishing Australia Day because it’s stolen land genocide.

STOP THE NONSENSE AND FIX IT

We don’t need a royal commission or new laws on guns, hate speech or anti-Semitism.

We need only three things:

1. Shut the borders to prevent any further Muslim migration,

2. Use existing treason laws to vigorously prosecute anybody promoting sharia as a legal system. This is treason as it undermines and supplants Australian laws.

3. Celebrate Australia and expect our governments to support our national identity with cultural events such as Australia Day. Learn what’s great about our colonial history on January 26. Raise our flag. Be proud.

That’s all we need to do in response to Bondi. The problem corrects itself. The anti-Semitism goes away when the Muslim Brotherhood-Leftist networks are deprived of success, and the biggest punishment to them is thwarting their goal of growing Muslim influence through migration.

Here is Goldie Ghamari, a Canadian from Iran. She saw the AFP Police Commissioner forced to lie for Islam with Anthony Albanese and Tony Burke behind her (full catastrophe here). She exploded in the following eye-rolling glory.

THE DAMAGE IS BEING DONE NOW: LYING FOR ISLAM

The response to the Bondi shooting has been a hundred misdirections to avoid the real problem: Islam.

The anti-Semitism is coming from Islam, right now over Gaza - but it’s baked into the religion.

Islam hates Jews. It’s built into the holiest books of Islam. It began when the Jews of Arabia rejected Mohammad’s claim to be a Prophet. They’d rejected so many Messianic claims and he was just another one.

Just four days after the Bondi shooting I went to the ASWJ bookshop in Auburn, Sydney, where a variety of Islamic books are for sale that discuss hating Jews, the violent exploits of Mohammad’s companions, and why it’s perfect Islamic justice to cut hands from thieves.

I purchased Sayyid Qutb’s In the shade of the Qur’an Volume 4.

It says Koranic directives are just as relevant today as they were in the 7th Century and that Islamic law is perfect for all times and places: superior to all other laws.

It reminds Muslims not to take Jews and Christians for their allies - so you can forget that interfaith crap.

It describes Jews as the “prime movers” of the war against Islamic revival, and as advocates of “most evil theories which try to destroy all values and all that is sacred”.

“Theirs is a wicked nature which is full of hatred for Islam, its Prophet and its followers,” he says of Jews on page 220.

It’s not possible to take the anti-Semitism and violence out of Islam - and it’s not our job to do so.

It’s our job to shut the borders.

The Jew-hatred whipped up in Sydney over the past two years has come from Muslim Brotherhood sympathisers, many of whom are born here, who support Hamas in Gaza and want to destroy Israel.

THE RED-GREEN ALLIANCE

It’s the left and Islam.

The left needs Islam for muscle.

Islam can mobilise 5000 Muslims onto the street at any time, as the Lebanese Muslim Association did in a show of force at Parry Park, Lakemba, two weeks after Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023.

Islam needs the left to make it palatable. Islam could not translate street muscle into political power without the culturally acceptable face that the left gives it.

Together they took over Hyde Park, Sydney, nearly every weekend for two years after Hamas attacked Israel, culminating in the commandeering of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in August, 2025.

These weekly rallies whipped up anti-Semitism with exaggerated claims about Israel’s alleged conduct in the Gaza war. The graffiti and arson in Bondi soon followed.

Islam infected the left with Jew-hatred, and the left tried to suppress it because it looks bad. But it came first from Islam.

When Muslims shot flares at the Opera House screaming “Gas the Jews/Where’s the Jews/F*ck the Jews” after the October 7 Hamas invasion of Israel, it was leftist Josh Lees of Palestinian Action Group Sydney (PAGS) who ran cover for them.

At its Hyde Park rallies, supported by Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi, PAGS insisted they were “anti-racist” and did not know who screamed “where’s the Jews”. PAGS put Israel-hating Jews on stage as often as possible to pretend they weren’t anti-Semitic, while trying to detroy the world’s only Jewish state for Islam.

On October 7, 2023 - the day Hamas invaded Israel - PAGS described the grotesque slaughter as: “Palestinians tore down apartheid walls at a Gaza border, and began to enter '48 land that is rightfully theirs,” and called for immediate protest in support of Hamas. Before the dead had even been counted.

PAGS links the left to Islam, while the “Muslim feminists”, the hijabis, are the bridge from Islam to the left.

Remember the 2014 Lindt Cafe siege in Martin Place? The Islamist gunman was portrayed as “mentally ill” to hide his religious motivation and Australians leapt to defend innocent Muslims in hijabs from “racist Aussie Islamophobes” in case there might be a backlash. #I’llRideWithYou started trending and Mariam Veiszadeh’s Islamophobia Register Australia collected anecdotes over FaceBook, presenting an exaggerated case for Muslims as victims of Aussie bigots. All scrutiny of Islamist violence ceased and millions flowed into social cohesion programs.

The hijabis are highly effective at forming influence networks in left-wing politics, academia, media, lobby groups and politics. They present as “moderate Muslims” who are organised and smart, and their hijabs give them immediate anti-racist cachet. They have a large potential support network from overseas advocates such as the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation and the energy-rich Gulf monarchy Qatar.

They call Israel a “zionist entity” and a “colonial project” to delegitimise its right to exist at all.

Then they do the exact same thing to Australia, calling our nation “stolen land” and a “settler colony” with no right to exist, pretending to side with Aboriginal people.

They re-frame Islamic Jew-hatred as political opposition to Israel, pretending it is anti-racist opposition to “colonialism”.

That way Islam and the Left can make common cause against the rest of us.

They spin the narrative after any attack to ensure ever increasing concessions to “the Muslim community”.

Look at Islamophobia Register Australia, its reports, its penetration of academia and its board: Mariam Veiszadeh, Susan Carland, Hanan Dover. Look at Sara Saleh.

Look at Randa Abdel-Fattah, who was disinvited to the Adelaide Writers Festival in the wake of the Bondi shooting when it became politically untenable to host a Hamas sympathiser who wished for Israel to cease to exist.

Her leftist allies then boycotted the festival, imploding it by January 14 and calling the board’s decision “racist”. Now, nobody gets a festival.

These Islamistas present as social-justice leftists but organise bully-mobs to silence critics of Islam. Sarah Saleh, Randa Abdel-Fattah and Hanan Dover all signed a shameful petition organised by Hana Assafiri in 2017, attacking ex-Muslim intellectual Ayaan Hirsi Ali in order to deplatform her. Subsequently, Ali had to cancel her Australian tour on safety concerns. I was told at the time that protesters had threatened her venue insurers, causing the venues to cancel.

Randa Abdel-Fattah and Sara Saleh signed an open letter with 500 other creatives threatening Writing WA over inviting talented singer Deborah Conway to Perth Festival’s Literature and Ideas program in 2024. Why? She is Jewish, declared her support for Israel’s right to exist, and opposed the Hamas Gaza narrative.

Also in 2024, she signed an open letter along with nine other academics to the Adelaide Festival board asking them to rescind their invitation to New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, objecting to his commentary on the Middle East conflict.

So Randa Abdel-Fattah and friends are all for censorship and deplatforming that favours them.

The Islamistas do it to advance Islam, but they are allied with the hard left and Australian Greens who join them at protests and promote them at universities and in the media.

Look at their allies on the left: PAGS, the Greens and the NSW Council for Civil Liberties. Look how the NSWCCL won the Harbour Bridge for a Gaza protest.

Both groups, leftists and Islamists, want to tear down Australia to rule the ashes.

If the borders are shut to Muslim migration, they will eventually stop doing it.

The Muslim Brotherhood and their sympathisers want to establish the global Caliphate gradually, through infiltration and subversion. Not by violence. They work the system towards small and incremental gains.

Islamic State is a completely separate group, overseas. They seek to establish the global Caliphate immediately and by violent means.

It’s the same goal. They just have different methods.

Islamic State praised the Bondi shooting as The Pride of Sydney just four days later in their weekly newsletter Al-Naba’, issue 526, as documented by the Middle East Media Research Institute.

Their editorial encouraged more random violence against Jews and Christians.

“The speeches and official writings of the Islamic State have always incited the targeting of Jews and Christians during their holidays and gatherings, explained practical methods for doing so, and clarified the success of the attack takes precedence over documenting it,” they wrote.

Also in December:

• An Islamic convert planned to attack a restaurant on New Years’ Eve with knives and hammers in Louisiana, USA

• A Polish man ‘fascinated with Islam’ planned to attack a European Christmas market before being arrested in Poland

• Five Muslims were arrested before they could drive vehicles into a Christmas market in Germany

• Islamic State planned a spate of New Year’s Eve suicide bombings including at churches in Syria

You can’t stop every “practical method”. If you ban guns they’ll use knives or cars or trucks or bricks or iron bars or open windows on the 10th floor.

What we can do, to immediately win, is shut the borders to Muslim migration.

To stop this incredibly obvious choice, those who profit from open borders or who want to advance Islam immediately lie about the motive.

Here is Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Islamophobia, on the day of the attack before the full death count was even known: “The perpetrators of this senseless violence have a clear purpose: to spread fear, terror, division and mistrust within our communities.”

Islamists only have one motive: sharia worldwide. Advance Islam.

Shutting the borders stops this. So people who don’t want to shut the borders lie about it.

The Envoy inserted his own preferred motive, just like the Prime Minister did, so people won’t turn against Islam and shut the borders.

Islamic State is not a perversion of Islam, either, as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said a week after the shooting, lying through his teeth.

It is literal Islam.

Islam is a decentralised religion without a formal head, but the most respected Sunni religious scholars at Al-Azhar university in Cairo have never been able to declare Islamic State to be unIslamic, despite previously rushing to pronounce takfir on any poor reformer who tried to water down Islam. The reformer would then end up in prison or in hiding, or be beaten to death by vigilantes. But they could not do this to Islamic State, because they are literal Islam.

Australia’s ruling class will not allow the problems with Islam to be discussed in public: that’s why Bondi happened. That is why Australians are dead and injured.

We didn’t talk about it after the Lindt Cafe Siege, the Bali Bombing, the Bataclan (which included horrific torture, beheading and disembowelling), Charlie Hebdo, the London Bridge attack, the Tube attacks, the child-rape gangs of Britain, the Madrid train bombing, the murder of gays in Orlando Florida, the rise of the Islamic State Caliphate, the 9/11 attacks (which Hitchens argues was a date marked for the breaking of the Seige of Vienna), or the 100 other Islamist attacks on soft Western targets.

Remember the Bourke St rampage in 2018 when Hassan Khalif Shire Ali stabbed a much-loved restaurateur to death in Melbourne before police shot him?

Shall we revisit those lies?

The Islamic Council of Victoria said in a media release (now deleted) that it was nothing to do with Islam: “there is no evidence that this individual’s religious beliefs were a causal factor. What is known is that this person was complaining about strange delusions and had been agitated for weeks,” as the Herald Sun reported.

Police at the time found no evidence of mental illness and said he was a jihadi.

When then-Prime Minister Scott Morrison described Islamist extremism as the greatest threat to Australia he was scolded by prominent Muslims including Federal Labor MP Anne Aly. Muslim leaders demanded an apology, as Stephen Johnson reported for Daily Mail.

Then, in 2019, one of Shire Ali’s three brothers, Ali Khalif Shire Ali, pleaded guilty in the Supreme Court to terrorism charges. He tried to get an automatic weapon to shoot crowds on New Years’ Eve in Melbourne’s Federation Square.

The reason? “To use violence to advance the cause of Islam”, as ABC reported. Years later, in 2021, the coroners’ inquest found this was exactly what also motivated his brother’s Bourke St rampage.

It was Islam.

But the inquest was years later, the headlines had passed and nobody held the propagandists to account for lying about it.

Instead, “deficient police policies” were blamed, including in the ABC headline.

It’s not Islam’s fault for doing it, it’s police at fault for not stopping it.

This absurdity is the signature of a political dodge. Lie, deflect, obfuscate, blame something else.

That means powerful people are making it politically impossible to hold Islam to account.

People dislike Islam, not because they are “Islamophobic” but because Islam’s teachings directly cause the bad behaviour of Muslims.

If we had discussed Islam and dealt with it honestly in 2018, or before, and removed those powerful road blocks, then there would have been no Bondi attack. Those people would be alive today.

Why can’t we talk about Islam?

That quote is often mis-attributed to the late, great Christopher Hitchens, who said the single most important thing about Islam (video below).

“Islamophobia” is a weapon that takes away your right to complain about the exploits of an extreme and absolutist religion by accusing you of race-hatred.

Peaceful, “moderate Muslims” and their leftist allies have spent decades making it politically impossible to talk about the problems with Islam.

If Australia admitted there is a unique problem with Islam, it would mean there’s something wrong with the core assumptions of multicultural absolutism, which are:

• that all religions are essentially the same,

• that it’s racist to make negative judgements about another civilisation,

• that every one around the world has an equal right to Australian citizenship without reference to their culture

• that racial anti-discrimination laws should also apply to religion.

To admit a problem with Islam would be to admit these assumptions are wrong - and immigration policy might need to change.

But for years Permanent Canberra has policed infinity migration with the threat of “racism” and promoted diversity as our strength.

Importing millions of people was as easy as shuffling units on a spreadsheet.

But people are cultural vessels, not economic units. Cultures are fragile. Hundreds of years of history feeds the moral priors that underpin cultures.

People have to share normative values, or “norms” in order to get along.

You can’t just plug an observant Sunni Muslim from Pakistan into Sydney and expect him to be as Aussie as Banjo Patterson.

He has grown up memorising the Koran in a country where, in 2002, a woman was stoned to death for “adultery” under a 1979 Pakistani law that enforces Islam. The norms include that a woman is to blame for her own rape if she can’t produce four male witnesses to prove it, and has therefore admitted adultery. That’s what Islam teaches and it’s what he’ll teach his children.

These norms are why, even though Pakistani law was changed in 2016 to make it easier for rape victims to get a conviction, it is routinely ignored by police, trial court judges, prosecutors and defense lawyers, according to this report from Pakistan to the United Nations Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.

So there are problems with Islam, and the government’s assumptions are wrong.

That is the fault of Permanent Canberra, and both major parties, stretching back decades - and you know how they feel about admitting mistakes.

Religion is NOT the same as race

Religion does not deserve the same legal protections as race.

Race, like gender, is a physical characteristic over which you have no control and on which you should never be judged. It has nothing to do with your abilities, your opinions, your politics or your character. You cannot choose your race, it is genetic.

But religion is a set of beliefs. People can believe silly things, and they can change their minds. If you can convert to it or from it, then it is a religion, not a race. That is why the right to religious freedom is not absolute, inalienable and universal - it is negotiated.

Islam is a set of silly ideas, not a race.

Islamists have been lobbying for years to have religion upgraded to the status of race under anti-discrimination legislation, so they can exempt their political manoeuvres from criticism. They will use legislative protection as a censorship weapon.

Why is Islam so different?

Islam comes with a unique set of problems. It is not the same as other religions.

As an ideology, Islam is expansionist, supremacist, colonialist, totalitarian and aggressive.

For proof just see the work of scholars, many of whom are ex-Muslims, such as: Robert Spencer, Ibn Warraq, Maryam Namazie from the Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Apostate Prophet, Raymond Ibrahim and Harris Sultan just to name a few. Save their videos, in case they disappear.

See the website TheReligionOfPeace.com which clearly sets out why Islam is different.

It also counts the jihad tally.

In December alone there were 111 Islamist attacks, 600 killed, 512 injured and 5 suicide blasts across 20 countries, most of them in Africa and the Middle East. Bondi was a drop in the ocean, even though it’s the most important to us.

Ex-Muslims Harris Sultan and Cyberpunk Dingo discuss the Islamisation of Australia and the Bondi attack in the excellent video below. “Dingo” hides his face because the country he comes from has the death penalty for leaving Islam.

“We have to save Western Civilisation,” Sultan says, before the pair wonder whether they should expect a knock on the door from police for criticising Islam in Australia.

Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke represents the Sydney electorate of Watson. More than a quarter of Watson’s voters are Muslim, according to The Guardian, which gleefully reported in April on how Muslims were politically organising over Gaza for the May 2025 Federal Election. That is why Burke is seen at the airport personally greeting Gazan refugees while they are yelling “Allahu Akhbar” and why he tried to bring in ISIS brides, according to the ex-Muslims. That is why Labor doesn’t mention “Islam” in relation to the Bondi attack.

Islam’s agenda: sharia worldwide

Islam has taken half the world in 1400 years, dominating almost 2 billion people. They are experts at conquest. Islam politically organises into a bloc of 56 Islamic nations at the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation to advance its agenda which includes handing Arab Muslims the city of Jerusalem for the capital of a “Palestinian” state as they say here.

The OIC (headquarters: Jeddah, Saudi Arabia) is the second-largest intergovernmental organisation after the UN, as the WEF reports.

While Australia undermines Australia Day and ignores our cultural heritage and identity (as I reported here), the 56-nation OIC is advocating for the religious and cultural identity of Muslims around the world, including minorities in non-member states like Australia, as their charter says.

Islam alone among the world’s religions comes with an in-built political, economic and legal system that obliterates indigenous cultures everywhere it goes, from Malaysia to Afghanistan.

Islamists do not come to Australia “for a better life” as boomers arrogantly assume.

They come to colonise Australia with their own legal and political architecture that is completely incompatible with Australian law: the Islamic Sharia.

Sharia entryism, euphemistically called “legal pluralism” became a subject of discussion, after unsuccessful lobbying in 2011 by the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC).

AFIC’s then-president lkebal Adam Patel, made a submission to a parliamentary inquiry on multiculturalism that lobbied for legally binding sharia courts.

The attempt failed but that doesn’t mean the goal has been abandoned.

Their aim is to destroy our nation while promoting Islam as the number one ideology, to be respected above all others, to rule and to dominate.

The greatest danger does not come from the violent Islamic State shooters but the quiet and hard-working Muslim Brotherhood sympathisers who network and infiltrate the media and political class.

Civilisation wars: the pincer movement

It doesn’t matter how many “moderate” (selectively unobservant) Muslims you know, who are really nice people. It doesn’t matter that one of four heroes who ran in to tackle the Islamist shooters at Bondi happened to be a Muslim.

Islamic Civilisation is at war with Western Civilisation and has been for 1400 years - whether we acknowledge it or not.

There are two approaches to tearing the West apart: immediate violence, and peaceful gradualism.

They work like a pincer movement, amplifying each other.

The violent jihadis, like the Islamic State sympathisers who shot up Bondi, use terrorism as a tactic to “strike fear in the hearts of the unbelievers”, and to bleed the state of resources spent on the expensive and culture-destroying security response.

Dying is no problem for them, as Allah has promised immediate heaven for death in jihad, and they are true believers.

They can’t take the country by force - but they don’t need to, because within two weeks of an attack the Islamophobia propaganda machine turns Muslims into the “victims” and concessions start to flow.

It’s the peaceful Islamists who are far more dangerous, gradually building the political muscle and the numbers for the movement.

They are the ones who allied with the left, who become the media, who infiltrate human rights lobby groups and academia, and political parties. They advance the cause of Islamism, running cover for the violent jihadis and channeling the government response into more funding and concessions to the Muslim community after every violent attack.

That’s why you get a spate of violent jihadism followed by a quiet lull of several years.

The gradualists build the political and propaganda machinery during the quiet years. Then they are in place to ensure that the next spate of Islamist violence brings only more funding, concessions and rewards for the Islamic community. That political, media and academic infiltration is what makes it impossible to shut the borders or talk about Islam after Islamist violence.

It’s these Muslim Brotherhood sympathisers of the red-green alliance who whipped up Sydney’s anti-Semitism at their repeated Gaza protests together with the Australian Greens (as I reported here and here).

That’s why Greens deputy leader Senator Mehreen Faruqi is not welcome in Bondi.

It is the peaceful “moderates” who do the greatest damage.

It’s the “feminist hijabis” who disable our immune response to jihad. They build the political machine to run cover for the Islamist agenda.

They build the bridge from Islam to the left, re-framing Islamic Jew-hatred as only political opposition to the state of Israel, pretending it is anti-racist opposition to “colonialism”.

I detailed some of this a decade ago here:

It’s now been a month since Islamists shot up Bondi, murdering 15 people for Allah.

The Islamist State flag on their windshield told us all why they did it, so we don’t need a Royal Commission.

The problem is obvious and the solution is clear. Doing it is politically hard because of political interference from the red-green alliance and the open borders industry.

Destroying Australia from within

The sinister and long-term Islamist goal is to de-legitimise Australia while promoting Islam as superior until Islam takes the country. They don’t care if it takes 200 years.

To this end, Islamists sneer at Australia as “colonial”, dragging down the nation at every opportunity while pretending to defer to Aboriginal people.

According to the 2021 Census figures, there are now more Muslims in Australia at 813,392 than there are Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders, at 812,728.

This number will leap over a million at the next census after the Federal Government flooded the country with more than a millon migrants since 2022, plus a million foreign students enrolled in 2025.

Islam has also targeted Aboriginal people for conversion as I have detailed here and here.

Not because they want to help Aboriginal people, but so they can use them as a weapon against everyone else.

This is the hallmark of the red-green alliance, the Muslim Brotherhood sympathisers.

They distort and fabricate the history of Aboriginal people as I have wrote about here in order to delegitimise Australia as “stolen” and to position Muslims as the new “best friends” of Aboriginal people. The rest of Australia then has to follow their lead.

This allows Islamists to fabricate their own narrative, that the Arab Muslims of Gaza are the “Aborigines” of the Middle East: “Palestinians”, whose land was “stolen” by European Jews.

This is untrue, but creating a fake common cause of Palestinians and Aboriginal people allows the left and Islam to become allies despite agreeing on nothing more than a desire to destroy Australia and Israel.

Islam alone among religions has followers who come to Australia with the express purpose of colonising, undermining and destroying it, to take it over entirely.

When Islamic State captured enough territory to declare its own Caliphate, it issued currency in gold dinars. The five-dinar coin had a map of the world without borders on the back to show its ambition of enslaving the entire world under Islam, as Coin Desk reported.

Islamists are true globalists. Sharia for everyone.

Political Islam is not compatible with Western Civilisation. It never has been. Islam explicitly directs the exact opposite of Australian freedom in its holiest books.

Plenty of Muslims come to Australia because they don’t want to live by Islam.

But this doesn’t change anything. People lie at the border to get in, so you can’t separate the unobservant from the colonists - and there’s always a percentage that want to impose the sharia.

The price of large-scale Muslim migration is a police state, ‘Islamophobia’ censorship and sporadic violence against non-Muslims followed by sustained cultural erosion.

Only 4 of 31 proscribed terror groups in Australia are so-called “right wing”, the rest are all Islamist (except for one, the Kurdistan Workers Party).

We are all also paying for the expansion of Islam within Australia through the Halal Certification grift that raises millions of dollars on almost the entire food-chain.

Every time you go shopping for food, you are donating money to Islam whether you want to or not.

When campaigner Kirralie Smith tried to raise awareness a decade ago she was demonised and dismissed by a Four Corners episode that dodged the issue of involuntary religious payments.

SHUT THE BORDERS

It’s not our job to reform Islam, only Muslims can do that. It’s our job to shut the borders so the community grows only through birth rates, giving more chance for integration until it reforms.

They have their countries and we have ours.

Australia’s Muslim community is now too large for the authorities to effectively police, given the extra resources needed to handle the ideological conflict that Islam brings.

The Immigration Department’s job is to keep further Islamic migration out, and not to grant visas. Do the hard thing. No study visas, no refugee visas, no citizenship, no permanent residency and no business visas.

Islam needs to be treated as a hostile ideology in same category as communism or Nazism, not as “just another religion”.

Blinding police to Islamist threats

While Sajid and Naveed Akram were plotting their attack on Bondi, other Muslims and their leftist allies were lobbying to turn the eyes of the security state away from Islam and onto the “far right” who stand in their way.

Here is the Islamic Council of Victoria, telling the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security in 2021 that the “far right” are a bigger threat than Islamists.

“Right-wing extremism (RWE) is the biggest terrorism/extremist threat to Australia, and more so than so-called “Islamist extremism.”

Here they are trying to conflate Islam with race, in order to twist racial discrimination legislation to silence critics of Islam in the very same submission:

“Recommendation 5: That Islamophobia or anti-Muslim racism be recognised alongside other kinds of ethno-religious racism as requiring protection under racial discrimination legislation and policies.”

Archived here.

They are not trying to reform their religion. There is no introspection. There is only deflection of blame away from Islam where it belongs and onto others.

Here is the ICV, just months before the Bondi shooting, trying to get “religion” taken out of the definition of “terrorism”, because it’s all just Islamophobia caused by decades of “unfair” media reporting on the bad behaviour of Muslims.

The NSW Council for Civil Liberties, which allied with Palestine Action Group Sydney (PAGS) to protest weekly for Gaza, supported the ICV with its own submission.

That is the red-green alliance in action.

The academics incapacitate our ability to respond, short-circuiting us at a cultural level.

Here is Sociologist and Muslim Brotherhood sympathiser Randa Abdel-Fattah pushing “Islamophobia” with postmodernism, constructing an academic fantasy in which Muslims are “racialised” by attempts to counter violent extremism. Islam is never the problem, only resistance to Islam causes terrorism, you see - and that makes it both your fault and you are a racist. Foucault!

Randa Abdel-Fattah has conflated Islam with race for years, calls Australia “stolen land” and runs cover for Islamist attacks such as here, here and here. She also gets to run workshops in schools and helps set curricula.

Remember the mass sex attack on women in Cologne, Germany, on New Years’ Eve, 2015/16? Muslims, mostly North African migrants, assaulted more than 1300 women, egged on by the widely held Islamic supremacist view that Muslim women must be respected but non-Muslim women are fair game. Five years’ later, only two men had been convicted for sexual assault due to the chaos, as DW reports: an Algerian and an Iraqi, who each received one year’s probation. No jail.

This is how Abdel-Fattah framed the attack: “Let’s start first with white liberal ‘concern’. It’s not clear to me. Is the concern about sexual assault against women, or sexual assault against women when the perpetrators are brown men?”

You’re all just racists, see? If white football hooligans attacked 1300 Muslim women in their hijabs on Eid, there’d be no fuss.

That is the kind of narrative spin the left has applauded from the intellectual networks promoting Islam in Australia.

Abdel-Fattah, who called for the “end of Israel” in her hopeful New Year’s message for 2025, has written 12 novels pushing Islam and “anti-racism” to young people. She conducts workshops in schools at which she conflates race and Islam. In 2022, the Australian Research Council gave her an $870,000 research grant to investigate Muslim-Australian social movements which was suspended then reinstated, as The Guardian reports.

She is highly influential and has positioned herself to mould the attitudes of young minds.

Here she is describing herself: “growing up in Australia as a Palestinian Muslim, living here on stolen land in a settler colony”.

Australia was not stolen, or invaded. It was settled. In return for land, Aboriginal people got access to a modern lifestyle and a built environment that they did not have before. We share a history. Aboriginal people are part of our nation.

These “feminist hijabis” of the red-green alliance are not responsible for the radical violence of Islamic State supporters shooting up Bondi. But the narrative cover they run for Islamism is what makes that violence effective at tearing our country open. They turn it into a win for Islam. Their penetration of the left is what opened the door to two years of intimidation of the Eastern Suburbs with anti-Semitic graffiti and arson.

It’s coming firstly from Islam and, secondarily, the left. Hate speech laws will censor and oppress the innocent, and destroy a key pillar of our civilisation. The greatest harm is now coming to us from government and cultural failure to acknowledge the incompatibility of Islam.

Multiculturalism has limits. The only unwelcome and divisive settler colony here now is Islam and we should shut the borders to its increase, immediately. There are 56 Muslim countries, many of them extremely wealthy. If you don’t like Australia, if you prefer Islamic civilisation, then instead of trying to transform this country and trash our history, just move.

Misinformation censorship laws return, 2024

Having failed in 2023, the Deep State was back, trying to push the “misinformation” censorship bill again.

Here’s my submission from 24 September 2024, ripping into the second dumb attempt to destroy our freedoms, with a nice big picture of the government’s own “misinformation” ad from covid.

Misinformation means “being wrong”

Disinformation means “lies”

Malinformation means “inconvenient truths”

This new jargon is a deliberate complication to deceive the public into thinking there is some quasi-scientific rationale for this censorship. There isn’t. It is a naked power grab.

The Health Department used that jargon to threaten me for reporting on the covid gene-vaccines.

They failed again thanks to the public’s efforts to visit their Senators in person to tell them ‘no’.

Sadly, the Deep State regrouped and attacked again in 2025 via “hate speech”, using anti-Semitism whipped up by the Red-Green alliance of the Left and Islam over the war in Gaza. Then, when an Islamist shot up Bondi on 14 December 2025, they used that, too, pushing sweeping new “hate speech” censorship which we will suffer from 2026 on, as ABC reports, archived here.

Censorship cannot stop Islamist violence against non-Muslims when Islam is trying to colonise the West. Only rules limiting Islamic migration can do that.

Refusing to acknowledge and address the unique problems of Islam is what leads to mass totalitarian censorship. It’s axiomatic. It’s inevitable - because you need ever increasing censorship to paper over the ever-increasing truth.

In it, I wrote:

The Phase III trials for AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna and Janssen were not even designed to test if the products could interrupt transmission or reduce severe covid symptoms, as noted by BMJ editor Peter Doshi in October 2020.

Pharmacologist Mike Yeadon, former chief scientist and vice-president of allergy and respiratory research at Pfizer, was so alarmed by the poor design of the BNT162b clinical trials that he petitioned the European Medicines Agency on 1 December 2020 asking them to halt the trials immediately pending review.

“If the vaccines are not properly tested, important public policy decisions regarding its use will be based on misleading evidence,” he wrote.

He was right, but drug-pushers demonised him as an “anti-vaxxer”, and he was never heard from on mainstream media again. He became so terrified by this that he later concluded it must be an intentional plan to hurt people.

These poorly-designed, truncated large-scale trials were not even done on the product we got.

The cheap and scaled-up manufacturing process used to make the Pfizer gene-vaccine given to the public was entirely different to the PCR process used to make the gene-vaccine in the large clinical trials. We got a product cooked up in huge vats of antibiotic resistant e.coli bacteria. Pfizer tested this process on just 250 participants.

This process contaminated the products with endotoxins along with fragments of mRNA and DNA.

And here is the archive of the government’s censored version so you can see what the AI blotted out. I wasn’t the only one censored. The bereaved mother of Caitlin Goetze had her entire submission turned into two big black blocks.

I wrote about the censorship of submissions here:

The subsequent independent report, archived here, was just a whitewash, ignoring the real issues, concluding we need to do more of what was wrong, faster, and with more money.

Soft Power review 2018, swept away by covid

In 2018, then-Foreign Minister Julie Bishop launched a soft power review to see how we could better engage the Pacific. Having come back from Tonga where I observed a Chinese frigate painted with a red cross and festooned with party lights, I made a submission, noting China was reaching out with free healthcare and high-value education.

At the same time, Australia was destroying its brand with extremist multiculturalism, as it is now. The most damaging effect being the abandonment of Western Civilisation in favour of a deracinated economic reductionism.

Australia’s ruling class have thrown away the concept that Australia should have a Enlightenment culture at all. Instead it has become an airport terminal – a place where people from everywhere park themselves to make money.

The bureaucrats view our population as economic units to be managed, controlled and disenfranchised instead of participatory citizens in a historical and cultural continuum that is fragile, special and in need of protection.

How naive I was, at this time, to think soft power would be friendship diplomacies like football tournaments.

Here’s my hopeful submission from September, 2018.

Then we got swept away by a nasty soft power coup.

In 2020 a corporate-military junta used the covid panic to lock us in our houses, force us to buy their products, and raid our public funds. They had taken control of academic medicine under our very noses.

The soft power review was abandoned, its submissions unpublished. There was no point to finishing it. Covid made it irrelevant, as DFAT confirmed to The Interpreter, here, archived here.

At the time of writing that submission, I had started a PhD at Wollongong University, to look at Muslim Brotherhood entryism in Australia. I did not complete it because they are a clandestine organisation and I reasoned that without access to classified information I wouldn’t be able to map them out in any useful or in-depth way. I hope someone is doing that work now because they are colonising us.

Religious Freedom Roundtable, 2016: when Islam attacks

Race, like gender, is a physical characteristic over which you have no control and on which you should never be judged. It has nothing to do with your abilities, your opinions, your politics or your character. You cannot choose your race, it is genetic.

Religion is a set of beliefs. People can believe silly things, and they can change their minds. If you can convert to it or from it, then it is a religion, not a race. That is why the right to religious freedom is not absolute, inalienable and universal - it is negotiated.

Islamists are pushing to conflate “race” with “religion”, and “racism” with “Islamophobia” in order to silence critics of Islam.

Here is my 19 February 2016 submission outlining the Islamist attack on freedom from religion and secular norms in Australia including sexist gender segregation and predatory halal certification-for-pay.

This Bill made sweeping changes to national security laws in the wake of Australian Islamists running off to fight for Islamic State in Syria, to establish a Caliphate. The nation was outraged on seeing footage of a seven-year-old Australian boy holding up a severed head for a photo. Instead of acknowledging the unique problem of Islam and addressing it by ending Muslim migration, the government changed the rules to enable intelligence agencies and their subcontractors to flout Australian laws with very few exceptions. They destroyed the rights of us all, giving unlimited powers to spies and secret police when a Special Intelligence Operation is declared.

I wrote about this legislation for Vice here, in August 2014. Archive here. Also the SMH/Age here. Archive here. Everyone’s freedom had to go in order for the government to lie and cover for Islam. I wrote then, 12 years ago, that the price of giving up freedom to accommodate Islam meant we would revisit the dreary lessons of East Germany under the Stasi. I was criticised for being alarmist. Now look at the state of it: censorship, hate speech laws after Islamists shoot up Bondi. The same mistakes, only the corrosion is deeper.

Robbed by mining companies, 2011

While reporting on mining in the Northern Territory I noticed that we collectively own the minerals when they are in the ground. But mining companies don’t have to pay a fair price for our minerals, they just dig them up for almost nothing and then make sell them for export. We get less in royalties as a percentage than Tanzania.

Because you don’t see the amount (not) paid on a per project basis, you can’t easily see the rip off. It’s hidden in amalgamated figures so you don’t get angry.

The Rudd Labor Government tried to put the most useless and minimal tax on the sector, a profit-based resource tax, the Resource Super Profits Tax. It was so easy to avoid with creative accounting that you might as well not do anything at all.

But the mining industry would not even tolerate that token gesture. They rolled the Prime Minister. Kevin Rudd was out and Julia Gillard was in. She passed a significantly watered down version, the Minerals Resource Rent Tax (MRRT). Rio Tinto’s best friend now chairs the Wellcome Trust, the M16-linked Big Pharma front group that is the UK equivalent of the Gates Foundation.

Here’s my submission from 3 August, 2011. I asked for the MRRT to at least include mandatory public reporting of mining royalties on a per-project basis, to no avail.

Illustratively, two years later in 2013, the town of Gove lost half of all its jobs when the alumina refinery shut due to lack of gas. Australia allows mining companies to dig it up and ship it out without regard to onshore processing, domestic need or jobs in addition to selling it for a song.

Successive Northern Territory mining ministers (and federal ministers for offshore deposits) had given permission for corporations to extract gas and export it all with no requirement that they save any for local use. There was no domestic gas reservation policy in the NT, so the Territory lost one of its biggest employers: Pacific Aluminium. At Gove, 2000 jobs went overnight and the town collapsed. The NT News stories from this period are hard to find now, but here is one archived from September 2013 as the town teetered on the brink.

My dad was a lifesaver at the Bondi Surf Bathers Life Saving Club for more than 40 years before he died of cancer in 2004.

Bondi Surf Bathers is the surf club in the middle of the beach, between the Pavilion and the park where Islamists shot up Chanukah By The Sea on Sunday.

The surf club had their Christmas Party on right next to it. Happy Hour was 5pm to 7pm, then Secret Santa.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah: SURPRISE.

Two Islamists jumped out of a silver sedan near the footbridge behind the club.

Immediately they were spotted by a local Russian Jewish couple 69-year-old Boris Gurman and his wife Sofia, 61. Without thinking twice, they ran at the gunmen. Boris managed to tackle 50-year-old terrorist Sajid Akram and got his rifle off him.

But Sajid grabbed another firearm and gunned the pair down. They died hugging each other on the pavement of Campbell Parade, beside a Honda draped in an Islamic State flag.

Dash cam footage of the Gurmans’ life-and-death struggle below, via journalist Rukshan Fernando.

That’s how the carnage began on Sunday night. The father-and-son team who devoted their lives to killing for Allah executed 15 random strangers on Bondi Beach, including a 10-year-old girl, Matilda, because they were Jews. They injured 40 others.

Many more people would have died but for the volunteer lifesavers at the Bondi Surf Club and North Bondi Surf Club.

They ran into live gunfire to perform CPR and treat gunshot trauma, as the Sydney Morning Herald reports.

By luck or providence the Bondi Surf Club had only just finished a first aid training course the week before, so their kit was stocked up and oxygen bottles were full. They used it all up on Sunday.

Their rescue boards became stretchers. They were covered in blood so police threw them out as a biohazard, according to a clubbie I spoke to on Thursday. They lost a lot of expensive gear. On Monday afternoon I even saw the loudhailers in a rubbish bin.

Other clubs have lent them boards but the Bondi Surf Club was still shut as of Friday. The volunteers are all traumatised. They fought desperately to save lives. Some of them were covered with blood that spurted out with every compression of the CPR. Others are suffering “survivor’s guilt” because they weren’t there.

DONATE TO THE BONDI SURF CLUBS HERE

During the attack about 200 people hid inside the surf club including a young teenager, the son of “Bondi Danny”. Danny, 45, was at the Hanukkah party with his four children. He doesn’t want to give his last name.

He told me his story Monday afternoon (video below) behind the Pavilion. We were all waiting for Avi Yemini, legend reporter for Rebel News. The entire world’s media was descending on Bondi but it’s Avi who we respect.

I live nearby, so I heard the sirens and choppers about 7.30pm on Sunday as I went to bed.

There’s often choppers and sirens now, in the two years since the red-green alliance of leftists and Islamists began holding weekly Hamas support rallies in Hyde Park, whipping up hate over the war in Gaza.

It’s nothing to do with us, it’s a foreign war, but they just kept hammering it until their followers came to the Eastern Suburbs to set fire to cars and vandalise Bondi.

The choppers and sirens were going again on Tuesday night, and choppers every night for a week now. They are incredibly loud, right overhead. Campbell Parade was blocked until Thursday, the surf club and park locked down behind police tape.

It was Friday before you could walk down the promenade.

Barricades are all knocked over near the Pavilion, maybe as people fled in fear. Umbrellas from the cafe are all askew. People’s beach towels have been flapping on the fence for days now, nobody has come for them.

Monday afternoon I trudged the sand behind a bunch of Trojans, working on a nearby job. They had flowers in their hands. Their boss had sent them all down to pay their respects.

Shocked locals were putting flowers wherever they could, but soon people started gathering behind the Pavilion.

One lovely man dragged a table and chairs from his house down to the Promenade, in case anyone wanted to talk.

Dylan Verrier, 38, from North Bondi had experience supporting others in a Men’s Shed and felt he could help that way.

“I didn’t really know what else to do,” he said on Monday.

So he got a pen and scrawled his message on a piece of paper: “Here to listen”.

He had spoken to about four people before I got there - and he really was a very genuine listener.

He had been walking past the Hanukkah celebration just 20 minutes earlier. When he heard the gunshots he thought they were fireworks - but then they kept going.

Dylan reminds me of everything good about Bondi.

This is the Bondi I know. Dylan was just like that rainbow below.

Later, behind the pavilion where people gathered to lay flowers, there were flouro-vest “mental health support” people wandering around - but they seemed official and government provided. I didn’t really want to talk to them. It’s not authentic. Locals want to talk to other locals about what happened, even people they don’t know, so they can sort out in their heads for themselves what happened. Without interference.

Slowly the people came, on Monday afternoon it was mostly Bondi residents and the Jewish community.

After some words of peace, a mournful song swelled from the crowd. It was the Hatikvah, the hope, adopted as the national anthem of the world’s only Jewish nation. It was gentle and dignified. It rippled like sadness and comfort, enveloping everyone regardless of faith. (video below)

As one, we turned to Australia’s anthem, the bright optimism of its lyrics oddly incongruous with the solemn tone. We need a sad anthem for times like this: “In joyful strains then let us sing” just doesn’t fly - but it’s all we had.

I met a teenager who was still in shock at what happened. He couldn’t cry yet because it didn’t seem real. He had been talking to one of the slain rabbis minutes before the shooting. They had been telling each other jokes.

“I just can’t believe it, he was alive and we were joking, and the next minute he’s dead,” he said on Monday.

About 16 of his friends had been shot, some of them killed, he said.

He had just walked across Campbell Parade when he looked back and saw the chaos unfold. With great presence of mind he started filming and caught some of the first shots as a big black ute sped away in panic. He has given his footage to the police.

Sadly I learnt on Monday that the courageous man seen running in to throw bricks at one of the gunmen was shot dead. He was 62-year-old grandfather Reuven Morrison, a Jewish man from the local community (pictured below, centre bottom).

Dazed locals wandered around Archer Park and the concrete bridge on Thursday after police rolled back the tape, taking photos.

They are not ghouls or tourists. They need to do this to process what has happened. It’s important to bear witness, to support and to see.

Like an open casket at a funeral people need to see it for themselves. They need to see the bullet holes in the concrete and get it straight in their minds otherwise it doesn’t seem real. It’s another planet. It’s like going to Mars, even though it’s Bondi.

The Jewish community is hosting the menorah lighting ceremonies for the remaining days of Hanukkah down behind the Pavilion at the floral tribute, and they’ve invited everyone to come. One Rabbi said on Thursday that he met a man who flew down from the Gold Coast to lay flowers. It means so much to everyone just to see that others show up and care, even if they are complete strangers.

On Friday morning Bondi hosted the biggest paddle-out ever seen for the victims, video below via AustraliaUnseen.

Eastern suburbs Jewish community under attack for two years

In Bondi we felt it was only a matter of time.

Almost every weekend since Hamas invaded Israel on October 7, 2023, starting the two-year Gaza war, hate has been whipped up at protests in Hyde Park, Sydney.

They were held by the red-green alliance of Islam and leftists, supported by the Australian Greens and the New South Wales Council For Civil Liberties.

I wrote about it here, here, here, here, here, here, and especially here.

The Jewish community has had to watch as Hamas support rallies got preferential policing - a problem caused by political lobbying from groups like Islamophobia Register Australia who want the political class to turn Australia’s security apparatus away from Muslims and onto the alleged “far right”.

Sydney barrister Peter Lavacs had to fly to Melbourne to get police there to actually do their jobs and arrest the Hamas supporting thugs who beat up and intimidated Jews, as Frank Chung reported here.

While the red-green alliance commandeered the Sydney CBD almost every weekend and made a nuisance at events, the police would only move on those who opposed them.

In 2024, a Jewish man was detained outside a Sydney synagogue for waving an Israeli flag at Hamas supporters across the street, as The Jerusalem Post reported here.

Another lone Jewish man was arrested for breaching the peace - for waving the Australian flag against a Hamas support rally in Hyde Park, as Daily Mail reported here.

When I went to see British author Douglas Murray speak in March last year, I was called a “Zionist Pig” and a “B*tch” by the Hamas supporters outside who were guarded by police. Story here.

That may be why Bondi attack victims were so quick to criticise police as being too slow to respond on Sunday.

But they weren’t too slow.

It was not the fault of police. They did their best in the confusion of a surprise attack.

They can’t be everywhere all the time. If you want them to be then you are asking for a police state.

The fault is with immigration. These Islamists should not have been in Australia in the first place.

Abul Rizvi managed Australia’s migration program from 1995 to 2007 and was awarded the Public Service Medal in 2004 for his contributions to its development.

Rizvi himself says he was the architect of “strengthened” character provisions in 1998.

Bondi terrorist Sajid Akram moved to Australia in 1998 under Rizvi’s watch on a student visa. Akram’s terrorist son Naveed was born three years later in Australia in 2001.

As Clare Lehmann has written (paywalled, summary via Drew Pavlou), it was Rizvi who created a back door path to permanent residency for international students.

This policy turned our universities into visa factories for cash and flooded us with unsustainable levels of migration.

Rizvi immediately complained on Twitter and said the student visa policy changes he brought in took effect in 2001. His full response is here.

Many people here are angry that Australia’s political class has allowed and even encouraged anti-semitism to flourish.

Devastated locals Natalie Dumer (left) and her friend Inna, let it rip on Monday (video below).

Wentworth MP Allegra Spender (Teal) was there on Monday, listening, cocking her head and looking serious as several people (including me) told her we want to shut the borders. We’ve had enough Muslim migration, that community is already big and influential enough.

There’s a problem with Islam: it comes with jihadism baked into the cake. This is unique to Islam, an unpleasant ideology that is expansionist, supremacist, totalitarian and aggressively intolerant. It’s the same everywhere, and it doesn’t matter how many nice (unobservant) moderates there are. You can see the unhappy truth of this at The Religion Of Peace website which quantifies the “misunderstandings of Islam” worldwide.

You can see it in Pew Research’s comprehensive and global survey in 2013 of Islamic attitudes to the sharia. A ridiculously large percentage of Muslims want sharia courts with legally enforceable rulings (see chart below).

This is treason, in a Western country, as it seeks to undermine and supplant the laws we pass through our parliament, replacing them with religious laws.

When large numbers of Muslims from these countries migrate to Australia, a percentage of them bring these attitudes with them, and quickly forget their oath of allegiance.

I have documented three disturbing trends on this Substack: the Australian Greens alliance with Islam here and here, Islam’s attempted colonisation of Aboriginal people, and the New South Wales Council for Civil Liberties abandonment of civil rights advocacy in favour of the Palestinian Action Group Sydney here and here. This included winning them the Harbour Bridge for their propaganda protest shortly before the Gaza ceasefire. It also included lobbying for “religion” to be excised from the definition of “terrorism” so that Australia’s security focus could be turned away from potential Islamist violence and onto conservatives who they don’t like.

The NSWCCL did not respond to emailed questions on whether they would now change their stance.

Just like Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Allegra Spender didn’t want to acknowledge any problem with Islam.

She posed the concept that in Australia we judge people as individuals only, therefore it’s not about Muslims - and what would I say to that. It sounds so deceptively reasonable, most fair-minded Aussies want to agree with that. It’s natural to us.

Especially as one of the heroes of the day was Muslim man Ahmed al Ahmed, who jumped one of the gunmen and wrestled his gun from him. Ahmed was a true hero, and he saved many lives. He was shot as he did so. The gratitude poured out and more than a million dollars had already been donated to him by Monday as he recovered in hospital, as Reuters reports.

But it makes no difference: Islam is incompatible with Western civilisation. Not all religions are the same.

Australia needs to shut the borders to further Muslim migration because jihadism is unique to Islam and the community is too big and too politically powerful already to effectively police. The evidence for that is Sunday’s shooting.

It’s arrogant to project Australian values onto other cultures that have vastly different moral priors, to insist we are all the same and the only enemy is “hate”.

Western civilisation is individualistic - you can be a Buddhist today and a Hindu tomorrow and if you don’t like that, well just be an atheist.

Islam doesn’t work like that. The individual submits to Islam. It comes with an inbuilt legal and political system. Muslims who leave Islam can be severely punished by anything from ostracism to death.

Plenty of Muslims ignore the worst directives of Islam, but the problem is in the texts and not just in the reader. So when you open your borders to large scale Islamic migration then these problems also come in.

When jihadis attack, they are not doing it out of “hate”. They don’t want to “sow division” or any such pabulum.

No - they do it to further the expansion of Islam in the West. They do it, because it works. They see themselves in the greater arc of Islam’s conquests.

They do it because there is a large political machine behind them that turns their violent act into political gold.

They don’t need a conquering army - this is asymetric warfare and the main weapon is the propaganda and political lobbying machine that embedded here while we looked away.

The playbook is the same every time. There is a random Islamist attack. Within a week come the stories (often exaggerated or untrue) of Islamophobia. Innocent Muslims then replace the dead and injured as the biggest victims of the attack in the public narrative. Islam becomes the victim not the perpetrator. This leads to special consideration, sympathy, funded projects to build social cohesion, funding from government for advocacy groups like Islamophobia Register Australia, preferential jobs at media houses to represent “the community”, increased levels of Muslim migration which swells electoral influence, preferential policing, and a seat at the table with power brokers.

We don’t need or want any of this - just shut the borders.

Many Muslims condemned the attack, but others celebrated it.

As ex-Muslim Harris Sultan has explained (video below) - when Western countries get serious about shutting the borders, they will start changing their attitudes.

Projecting Western moral priors onto other cultures, the false belief that all people are the same - just with different clothes, yummy food and funny accents - is the primary error from which all these problems flow.

The people who project this error are the ones responsible for jemmying open the borders for an incompatible culture to settle. It’s their fault.

This “we are all the same” bs is why Australians fail to defend the borders against an aggressive and colonising ideology. Australia’s political class refuses to recognise that Islam is colonising us, even as it bemoans our British colonial history.

Infinity multiculturalism needs to go because concepts of “good” are culturally determined and are sometimes so vastly different as to be incompatible.

That is why the world has different countries - so people who are significantly different can live under the legal structures that their vastly different cultures create.

That is why the world of Islam has 56 countries who all co-ordinate on religious lines at the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation.

They have their countries and we have ours.

The surveillance state won’t work. The multicultural police state won’t work. Plans to reduce anti-semitism won’t work. Gun restrictions won’t work. Free speech restrictions won’t work. Protest restrictions won’t work.

Shutting the borders will work.

Shut the borders.

Draft Speech:

Indifference by Design: how media systems undermined reporting on the mRNA disaster

This is roughly what I was going to say, however I did go off script and did not finish it all in the 15 minutes.

—

I opened with the invisible gorilla game, a selective attention test. Although many have seen it before I asked them to just play along.

In the video, you have to count how many times the white team passes the ball. I gave out a copy of Covid Through Our Eyes to the person who guessed the right number, who turned out to be none other than journalist Chris Kenny, who was also on the panel.

If you haven’t seen it, this video is instructive of how soft power censorship works: by encouraging robust debate to distract you from the invisible gorilla in the room.

To paraphrase Noam Chomsky: “The media do not function like the propaganda systems of history’s totalitarian states. They encourage spirited debate, criticism, and dissent, as long as these remain tightly bounded within the assumptions of the elite consensus.”

That is how censorship is done in Australia.

During the covid panic: There was vigorous debate about lockdown measures. Case numbers and contact tracing - but never: was it needed at all?

The global infection fatality rate was only 0.03% for under-60s according to Stanford epidemiologist John Ioannidis. None of it was needed at all – there’s an invisible gorilla.

It was known as early as April 2020, that covid just wasn’t that deadly, when Ioannidis and Jay Bhattacharya did seroprevalence research in California.

But powerful interests wanted to push people into a panic so we would accept lockdowns then genetic vaccines. They wanted to push mRNA as a platform technology for rapid response to biological threats, 100-day lab-to-jabs. They were using the panic to push it through regulators in every country with a lockdowns until vaccines strategy never used in public health.

Some of these powerful organisations include the Wellcome Trust, the Gates Foundation, their co-ordinating offshoot CEPI (coalition for epidemic preparedness innovations), the Big Pharma drug cartel, the Anglo-American intelligence apparatus and the US Military.

They tied in a constellation of universities and government bureaucracies with funding, contracts and collaborative ventures, creating a synergistic culture around their priorities. Pandemic drills practised what to do for years with key global health bureaucrats involved including Australia’s Jane Halton, China’s George Gao and the CIA’s Avril Haines (Event 201).

We were invited by all these institutions to believe covid was as serious as ebola when in reality it was no worse than a bad flu year. The Australian Government hired a young actress to gasp on a fake respirator for a TV ad to make us afraid. In the media, we wrote breathless, urgent stories, because we believed it. We did not suspect that world health authorities would exaggerate the severity of a virus.

A culture of censorship was promoted in Newsrooms – for example, Daily Mail editor Barclay Crawford told all the journalists in news conference to make anti-vaxxers look ridiculous in stories. It was a zoom meeting and someone leaked the clip to Rebel News. This cultural censorship is more powerful than any top-down directive from government which journalists would defy.

Barclay is not a bad man – he thought he was being responsible. Newsrooms trust vaccines as safe by definition, and therefore anyone who said otherwise was a dangerous kook. All the newsrooms were doing it. A censorship culture excluded people injured by the gene-vaccine for fear that others might see, and not take it, and lives would be lost to “deadly covid”.

But the mRNA and DNA covid vaccines were not safe

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) claims only 14 deaths are ‘linked to’ the shots but the truth is they do not know.

The injury reporting system is voluntary and was known to be wildly under-reported even before covid.

The system broke completely during the panic due to government propaganda, censorship and failure of the media to report the injured.

The public had no idea they were supposed to report suspected side-effects to the TGA. They were not told what the black triangle symbol meant – that the product was only provisionally approved and that the TGA was still building the safety profile – which depends on the very reporting that nobody did.

Injuries and deaths that were never reported do not show up in the figures. The official figures are completely wrong.

The TGA has no idea how many people were killed and injured.

But when the TGA says their numbers, the media reports it unquestioned due to the official imprimatur of the agency.

BUT DID YOU KNOW:

There were 304 reports to the TGA of deaths within one week of injection? More than 140 in the first 3 days and 35 on the day of injection. Why wasn’t that on the front page of the paper?

We needed an adversarial media to hold government to account – but the media failed.

Covid controversy:

ABC investigative program 4 Corners’ idea of a covid scandal in May 2021, was that the vaccine rollout was TOO SLOW.

Journalists rely on experts especially for medical stories. The problem is that every university and research organisation is tied up with collaborative projects and grants integrating them to the mRNA industry and its Big Pharma backers.

Who were the “independent experts” in Four Corners story?

The Doherty Institute’s Professor Terry Nolan and former Health Department Secretary Jane Halton.

Professor Jane Halton is chair of CEPI. CEPI’s stated mission is promoting the mRNA platform for 100-day lab-to-jabs.

The Doherty Institute was a primary pandemic cheerleader whose mathematical modelling underpinned Australia’s lockdowns and “roadmaps to freedom”.

In 2023 Doherty joined CEPI’s Centralised Laboratory Network, synchronising its processes with CEPI, using the same protocols, tools and materials.

In May 2024, Four Corners’ expert Terry Nolan, was co-writing papers with Moderna on mRNA regulation in Australia, setting the rules Moderna wants.

All through media it is like this

Time-poor journalists reach for experts and the ones who return their calls are usually tied to the pharmaceutical industry in some way - or hope to be in future.

Covid put this on steroids because the government and universities got excited about the potential for a billion-dollar RNA industry.

Billions of dollars earmarked for medical research to benefit the nation have been redirected to this boutique industry, away from necessities such as IV fluids – of which there is a global shortage.

Australia spent more than $18 billion on countermeasures for covid. Money has poured in to RNA pilot plants, translational centres and research hubs at universities round the nation, for jobs, jobs, jobs.

Nobody wants to talk about gene-vaccine injuries.

On the screen you see a Forest of the Fallen display. The stories of people injured and killed by the covid vaccines.

During 2021 and 2022, volunteers printed their stories and stuck them to stakes so other people could read them. That’s how bad the censorship was.

Playwright Michael Gray Griffith of Café Locked Out got in a van and drove around the country interviewing people devastated by these products, giving them a voice on Rumble after YouTube censored. That’s the job of the ABC, but where were they in 2021?

They were busy telling us that Jane Halton from CEPI said we need to buy more vaccines, faster.

A few lone voices realised something was wrong and tried to speak out. But it was the marginalised independent media who became the adversarial watchdog.

I had planned to end with one of the stories from Forest of the Fallen, and here it is:

Laurence Matthew Sage, was a 33-year-old machinist from Adelaide, working in Kalgoorlie as a leading hand at NLC Engineering when he took the Moderna jab in 2021.

He was a healthy man when he got his gene-vaccine. He waited the 15 minutes, then got in his car to drive home.

15 minutes after that he slumped over the wheel. His car crossed the median strip, took out two poles and flipped on its roof.

The coroner’s report said it would never be known what caused him to lose control of his vehicle and the death certificate listed chest injuries from the crash.

His mother Jean says it was the jab.

Her other son, Robert, identified his body by the side of the road. Robert then had to take the jab to keep his own job, and ended up with heart problems at age 30.

Jean and her husband had to drive from Adelaide to Kalgoorlie, making it across the WA border with 12 hours to spare before it closed. They held a funeral in Kalgoorlie but then the body had to travel back to Adelaide for burial. Can you imagine the misery of navigating lockdown borders with the body of your dead son – who had been healthy prior to the shots?

This story encapsulates the problem. Because Laurence died in a car crash, that proximal cause was blamed. But in reality it was the distal cause, the jab, that caused him to slump over the wheel and have the crash. But there is plausible deniability, so a system unwilling to see a problem with the mRNA jabs simply ignored it and blamed something else, like thousands of others.

It was Michael Gray Griffith who gave Jean a voice. You can still hear her story today on Rumble, Stories from the Great Australian Exodus channel here:

I hereby save my dead son Laurence, from your silence.

In footage provided to Letters From Australia, ABC news reporter Nabil Al-Nashar, can be seen picking on white Australians, claiming they alone have a long tradition of being “far right” and “othering” people of different backgrounds.

“It doesn’t really matter who it is as long as it’s not white,” he told a panel discussion called “Reporting on the far right” held by the journalists union, the Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance (MEAA) in Redfern, Sydney, on October 29.

Mr Al-Nashar incorrectly painted March For Australia as 15,000 people screaming “White Australia get out” and expressed regret that journalists are not “thought police” to stop them protesting.

“When something like this happens there’s 10,000, 15,000 people on the streets screaming at the top of their lungs “White Australia - get the hell out” we can’t ignore it, we have to be there. Unfortunately we’re not thought police, we can’t tell people what to say and what not to say - but we can certainly prosecute everything being said to the full extent of fact checking.”

The 15,000 people at March For Australia did not scream “White Australia - get the hell out” and the marches were attended by many migrants who are themselves concerned about the unsustainable numbers flooding in.

Mr Al-Nashar knows this as he was present at the Sydney rally and himself admitted on camera that the crowds themselves had chased out the small and unwelcome group of cartoon racists dressed in Antifa-black who tried to cause trouble, as shown on his own twitter feed. But he said it anyway.

Mr Al-Nashar’s Twitter feed also shows him belittling a white Australian for being inarticulate in September.

The man was kind enough to talk to the ABC but Mr Al-Nashar made him look like a fool, disparagingly referring to him as “old mate” and “this bloke”, and implying he was racist and stupid.

Clearly the context was climate change. Importing more people makes net zero harder as each new person needs energy.

But Mr Al-Nashar twisted the man’s words to present him in the worst possible light, saying he “insisted immigrants were ‘to blame’”. The man had only agreed that less immigration would help - which is not the same thing at all. He didn’t blame immigrants.

But, as Mr Al-Nashar’s Twitter profile says, “information is ammunition”.

Thousands of ordinary people flew their flag across the nation’s capitals at March For Australia to protest the Albanese Government’s mass migration policy.

Australia has had so much migration in recent decades that of the 5.5 million people in Sydney, almost half were born overseas as of the 2021 Census - before the Albanese Government brought in almost two million more, as detailed in this story here.

Official projections show 13.5 million more people flooding in over the next 40 years, ensuring cultural fragmentation and a housing shortage that never ends.

Disturbingly, Mr Al-Nashar told journalists not to report protesters’ issues at face value, raising concerns over ABC News’ commitment to fairness and accuracy.

In response to a question on how reporters should cover an event like March For Australia, Mr Al-Nashar said it wasn’t good enough to report what protesters actually say, instead journalists should insert their own interpretation.

“It’s not good enough to go there and be like ‘well these people say they’re not racist and they only care about immigration issues’ when we know that’s not what they’re saying,” he said.

Perhaps Mr Al-Nashar is a magical mind-reader, so it’s OK for him to editorialise instead of just reporting what is said, at the ABC.

“Just explain to people what is actually happening as opposed to covering it at face value,” he said.

“When they are saying that it is not about race, it’s about immigration affecting housing, the cost of living, they are saying things that are verifiably untrue. We know these things are categorically wrong,” he said, without evidence.

One of Australia’s leading economists, Leith Van Onselen, has written extensively on how the mass migration crisis drives the housing shortage, detailing his work with evidence from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Treasury figures.

Here is another excellent economist, Martin North of Digital Finance Analytics, weighing in on why migration levels must be cut.

Mr Al-Nashar, by contrast, is from Qatar, population three million, where he grew up with his Egyptian family, according to his ABC profile.

Unlike Australia, this energy-rich gulf state has very strict immigration laws.

Qatar selectively bans all non-Muslims from becoming citizens of its own country, the fifth richest nation in the world on a GDP per capita basis, although it does promote mass migration to Western countries through the al-Jazeera news network, which it owns.

To become citizens of Qatar, even Muslims must have lived there for 25 consecutive years, speak Arabic and be “of good character”, which in Qatar means sharia-compliant.

Qatar is an absolute monarchy which eventually outlawed chattel slavery in 1952. It is ruled by the Al-Thani clan who support the Muslim Brotherhood of which Hamas is a wing, and they can arbitrarily kick out any would-be migrant they want.

To be fair, Mr Al-Nashar describes himself on Twitter as an Egyptian in Australia rather than a Qatari, even though he is actually “Australian” after gaining citizenship in 2023.

Mr Al-Nashar graduated in 2011 from the Georgetown School of Foreign Service in Qatar, a prestigious but controversial school characterised as an employment pipeline to the powerful US State Department.

Qatar has donated over US$1 billion to Georgetown since 2005 in an effort to influence future leadership with hostile narratives that undermine Western values, according to watchdog organisation ISGAP.

In July, Georgetown had to remove professor Jonathan Brown, the Alwaleed bin Talal chair of Islamic Civilization in the School of Foreign Service, after he publicly wished for Iran to launch a “symbolic strike” on a US military base.

Representatives of Georgetown denied Qatari money had pushed an anti-Western agenda into their curriculum in testimony to a US Congressional hearing in July.

ISGAP disagreed, saying: “The university has become a central platform for advancing the agenda of the Qatari regime and its deep affiliation with the Muslim Brotherhood, whitewashing extremism,” on the launch of its report Foreign Infiltration: Georgetown University, Qatar, and the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Muslim Brotherhood’s aim is to spread Islam worldwide by colonising and dominating other cultures: it is the real “far-right”, a supremacist and expansionist system that spreads through soft power. It is banned in Egypt, the country of its birth, where it buys influence with charity. For more on them, see this US Congressional subcommittee hearing on the Muslim Brotherhood’s global threat.

In Australia, the Muslim Brotherhood’s playbook is to infiltrate groups with grievances that it exaggerates and turns against the nation. It targets Aboriginal people for conversion, take over their marches with Palestinian flags and distort their history, as detailed in this story here. It denigrates white Australians as evil colonists while promoting Islam for privileged respect. It invites the left to accept Islam as the poor put-upon religion of the oppressed even though the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation is a powerful 56-nation lobby in control of most of the world’s oil wealth and is actively crushing indigenous people in both Indonesia and Malaysia.

It is relevant that these are the cultural priors of the places Mr Al-Nashar is from - especially when he is encouraging other journalists to marginalise Australians who want to end mass migration.

Letters From Australia makes no suggestion that Mr Al-Nashar is Muslim Brotherhood.

In 2023 he wrote for the ABC that he never felt at home in either Qatar or Egypt and was excited about Australia’s freedoms including free speech.

This only makes it more disheartening to see how quickly he reverted to spouting academic Edward Said’s hostile nonsense about “othering”, and belittling white Aussies as racists.

Perhaps instead of building positive PR initiatives with the Muslim community Mr Al-Nashar might try fairly reporting on all Australians equally, without bias.

The MEAA, the ABC and Mr Al-Nashar were all offered the chance to respond but did not reply as of time of writing.

YOU ARE THE “TERRORIST” NOW

The media union drinks night hosted three influential reporters who all revealed prejudiced assumptions about March For Australia, giving an insight into how deeply the nation’s corporate media hates any opposition to mass migration, which has been a bi-partisan government policy for at least 30 years and is supported by several powerful industries that profit from it.

Also on the panel were Guardian Australia journalist Ariel Bogle and Sydney Morning Herald journalist Perry Duffin.

The whole panel conflated March For Australia with the “far right” as typified by a handful of unwelcome characters from the National Socialist Network, who turned up in costume to cause trouble in Melbourne, theatrically attempting to beat up Rebel News reporter Avi Yemini for being Jewish and Sri Lankan journalist Real Rukshan for being black before setting upon an Aboriginal protest site.

Their job was to run in front of the cameras and act despicably so they could hijack the media and demonise thousands of normal Aussies by association, which is exactly what they did. These black-clad Popeyes are not serious people. They just provide ammunition for corporate newsrooms to attack those who get in the way of the mass migration agenda as “far right”, which they did.

But there is another reason, a sinister motivation for why these bogeymen made their vaudevillian appearance.

The Government wants to change the definition of “terrorism” under federal law.

This will have far-reaching implications on how the Criminal Code is applied by all the intelligence agencies and the nation’s police forces.

Up for grabs is that terrorist acts must have the “intention to advance a political, religious or ideological cause”, as policy think-tank ASPI reports.

The left wants this definition shifted away from Islam (which they like), and onto everyone they call “far right” who they don’t - which is everyone at March For Australia, ordinary conservatives and people who want less migration.

See how the NSW Council for Civil Liberties describes scary people in this submission here on a previous Federal Parliament Senate Committee inquiry into Right Wing Extremist Movements in Australia.

The submission writes: ““Right wing extremism refers to radical support for ideologies characterised by ‘toxic ultranationalism’, xenophobia, political conservatism and populism, white supremacy, anti-democratic rhetoric, racism and intolerance for minorities in Western society”.

And here is the NSW CCL deflecting from Islam in their October submission to change the definition of “terrorism”, which asks to remove the religious cause from the definition of terrorism altogether.

This is the red-green alliance: Islam using the left to promote its agenda.

This is what panelist Ms Bogle and her writing partner Cam Wilson are doing with their book Conspiracy Nation, exposing the dangerous world of Australian conspiracy theories.

They are making conservatives “dangerous” so you can be criminalised, while downplaying the risks of Islamism.

Here is the Government’s review, launched in August. Submissions are now closed, but you can see them all published here.

Islamic advocacy groups such as the Islamic Council of Victoria are submitting that “religious cause” should be taken out of the definition, because it’s Islamophobia caused by decades of unfair media reporting.

But people have forgotten the risks.

The media reporting was never unfair. There was a lot to report.

Islam is engaged in a civilisational struggle against non-Muslims and the West, and its adherents frequently use terrorism as a tactic in that war. We all know it’s “not all Muslims” but they say it themselves, there is no point denying it. All you have to do is peruse the grim tally here.

There is a reason why only 4 of 31 proscribed terror groups in Australia are so-called “right wing”, and the rest are all Islamist (except for the Kurdistan Workers Party).

November 13 marks the 10th anniversary of the Bataclan massacre in France. The now-sanitised telling goes: “terrorists” killed 130 people in a Paris concert hall.

But that isn’t it. They didn’t just kill people at all.

Read what the self-described Islamic State fighters said. They castrated men before stuffing their genitals in their mouths and gouging out their eyes - while they were still alive. They struck terror into the hearts of the unbelievers. The disembowelling, the beheading, the stabbing of women’s private parts, the sadistic murder of 130 people - including disabled people - was so bad that attending police officers had to go outside to vomit, as reported here.

Here is one justification by surviving Islamist Salah Abdeslam, who said in court: “Yes, but Islamic State follows the Quran, the Islamic tradition. And in the Quran, there is that provision. If people fight Islam, they can be held captive ...’

Bataclan was not an isolated incident and the problem is not “Islamophobia” or unfair reporting.

JUST REPORT THE FACTS FAIRLY

The three corporate news outlets, which the panelists represent, are supposed to maintain media standards of objectivity, and to report on protests accurately and with minimal bias - especially the ABC.

Instead of fostering the highest standards of news reporting, the MEAA and the nation’s major newsrooms appear to be nurturing a culture that hates ordinary Australians, hates the flag, hates our history and says the worst of us at every opportunity - with white Australians singled out for a kicking.

A prejudiced hate-Australia norm is replacing the commitment to fairness and accuracy in the country’s most influential newsrooms.

This is something the MEAA, as the journalists’ union, needs to address - along with the mastheads.

Soft power censorship, or cultural censorship, is far worse than anything Home Affairs dishes up. You only have to look at the decades-long cover-up of the UK’s Islamist rape gang scandal to see how dangerous it can be.

It’s no surprise that those who attended March For Australia immediately found themselves smeared by mainstream press.

This panel event shows you exactly why.

It was a dominance display on our national symbol, blocking an arterial road for propaganda, topping a whole year of weekly protests.

People are sick of it.

Every flag except our own is out as we import all the world’s problems with insane levels of mass migration during a housing crisis.

So when persons unknown put a March For Australia flier out on socials, thousands of ordinary people – some of them migrants themselves – responded. Tens of thousands. Aussie flags stretching as far as the eye could see on Sunday.

The protesters want an end to mass migration because it is unsustainable: Australia has imported more than 1.5 million people since 2022, putting terrible pressure on housing.

But unlike the keffiyehs, Aussies don’t have a professional legal and media team behind them, or a whole year of practise with marshalls and police.

Aussies are naïve and don’t understand dirty tricks, like sending in Nazis to smear them as racists.

There’s a reason people call the Left “professional protesters”. It’s an insult – but you see the difference it makes.

The Palestine Action Group Sydney (PAGS) was able to commandeer the Sydney Harbour Bridge with a week’s notice for their August 3 march at the Supreme Court of NSW.

In her ruling, Justice Belinda Rigg specifically mentioned the “high level of PAG commitment to and experience in prosocial protest, the expertise of their organisers and marshals, and the significant history of their active communication and co-operation with police.”

See what weekly professional protesting gets you?

Trained marshalls in constant communication with the cops could have kept the Nazis out of March For Australia, and kept people safe from the violent leftist thugs - but they didn’t have any.

Then there is the backing of NGOs, something the Aussies don’t have.

The New South Wales Council For Civil Liberties (NSWCCL) is an organisation stacked with lawyers who pretend to care about rights, but mostly lobby for Gaza. On Thursday night they celebrated their big bridge win at their annual awards dinner.

Executive committee member Amal Naser, a Palestine Action Group Sydney (PAGS) organiser and solicitor, thanked the legal team at O’Brien Criminal & Civil Solicitors for winning them the bridge.

“O’Brien Solicitors, who have probably racked up hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal bills that we’ve never paid them and probably never will,” she said.

Justice Rigg did not make an order for costs when she granted permission for PAGS to block the bridge, saying she would determine the issue of costs in chambers on receipt of submissions.

PAGS had a big team, led by principal solicitor, Peter O’Brien, and Tim Rayner, alongside barristers Felicity Graham, Amanda Sapienza, and Mahmud Hawila, according to their website.

If PAGS is not paying, who is? Will it be the NSWCCL? Will it be pro-bono? Will it be an outside entity for example Qatar (which supports the Muslim Brotherhood) or an NGO?

Letters From Australia put the question to O’Brien Solicitors and to Amal Naser via her law firm Slater & Gordon. O’Brien Solicitors responded that Mr O’Brien is on leave. No response was received at time of writing from Ms Naser, but this story will be updated if a response is received.

By contrast there was no legal team to help the Aussies when a suspiciously theatrical team of fake Nazis marched in to ruin their protest.

They are cartoon characters: sinister Popeyes swinging their fists for the cameras. Like what a McKinsey focus group might design. They’re simulacra, inauthentic.

In Melbourne, before the march even started, they beat up Rebel News reporter Avi Yemini’s security team with an Aussie flagpole, trying to kick him out for being a Jew, along with fellow reporter Rukshan Fernando, because The Real Rukshan is brown.

“Terrible,” said Joel Jammal on the livestream. “This is just terrible.”

And that was the entire point.

In Sydney they pushed themselves in front of the media and took the open mic.

Those who realised actual Nazis had taken over turned their backs, booed them and left.

Please, Grok: can you make a picture of what Nazis might look like if they were in 2025 Australia instead of 1933 Germany?

I believe their job is to turn up to protests and smear by association.

The fake Nazis know they are radioactive. They might even be paid to do it, I don’t know. Nobody knows whose brownshirts they are, only what effect they have.

There is pressure on the authorities to fill out the “violent extremists” category with Aussies. There’s too many Islamist groups on the list. The NSWCCL wants you on it instead, as I reported here.

I warned last week that March For Australia was a smear trap, set to portray opposition to mass migration as Nazi-adjacent racism.

All the warning signs were there. Anonymous promotion, in everyone’s feed.

Remember how you couldn’t find a video of a vax-injured person during covid?

Someone wanted the Aussies out on the street – because they knew they could kill this cause with Nazis and leftist violence.

Aussies are not professional protesters like the Hamas supporters who commandeered the Bridge. They’re random, scattered individuals not an organised movement.

Many of them don’t understand what it means that Nazis showed up because it wasn’t anything to do with them, and most people didn’t even see them.

They just saw other Aussies with flags, and they think because a lot of people got into the streets that it’s a win for them.

To understand how profoundly damaging it is to have the smear-team ruin your march, let’s look at the two protests side-by-side.

Winning looks like policy changes and funding.

One week after the Harbour Bridge march, 11 August: Prime Minister announces Australia to recognise Palestinian state

Two weeks later, 15 August: NSW announces $1m for Islamophobia.

In Australia 3041 Palestinians were granted visas from October 7, 2023 when Hamas started the war on Israel, to November 2024, NewsWire reports. The border is OPEN.

Last month, the US restricted almost all visas for Palestinian passport holders on national security grounds, the BBC reports. Their border is CLOSED.

If Aussies are to win, they must learn from the Hamas supporters: protest regularly, have marshalls and kick out the Nazis.

AUSSIES DO NOT HATE MIGRANTS

Aussies don’t hate migrants. It’s just that we’ve had too much, too fast.

Australia’s population has increased by about 1.5 million people since 2022, of which more than 80 per cent came from net overseas migration, as Sky News reports, bringing the population from 26 million to more than 27 million last year. That means one in every 27 people has come here since 2022. Almost 50 percent of the population of Sydney, Australia’s biggest city, was already foreign-born as of the 2021 Census and people feel that multiculturalism has gone too far.

The protesters want an end to the insane policy of mass migration into a housing crisis on economic grounds - but also because societies are fragile. This is a reasonable point.

In recent years Australia’s flag, culture, history and national day have been attacked by people who wish us harm.

Australia is a tolerant nation and a multi-racial nation. But it is a nation. There is nothing wrong with that, and we do not want to lose it.

Permanent Canberra, which now includes corporate globalists as well as the bureaucracy and major parties, will not allow any opposition to their insane policy of mass migration into a housing crisis.

Someone sent in the fake Nazis. They are somebody’s brownshirts. Phony as a three-dollar bill. They must be kicked out or we won’t be able to defend our nation.

Homeowners are being demonised and threatened with a bedroom tax, and with capital gains tax on the family home.

The people have had enough of this lunacy and want to voice their opposition.

The corporate interest groups that want mass migration will not tolerate opposition to it.

So a trap has been laid to crush ordinary people who might get in their way, to smear them as violent white supremacists and domestic terrorists.

This will give ASIO and the Federal Police the ammunition they need to justify turning their attention away from jihadis and onto mums and dads who want migration reduced to Net Zero until the nation stabilises.

In the world of sinister political manipulation, you can’t say anything for sure, everything is a balance of probabilities.

But if you are considering going to the March For Australia rally on Sunday, please consider the following:

• What YOU want is to express peacefully that Australia should remain a nation whose character is Australian, that multiculturalism has gone too far, and that excessive migration needs to end, because it’s been too much, too fast. This isn’t radical it is sensible.
  

• There are other groups who want the OPPOSITE to you. They want unlimited mass migration, no effective borders, and for Australia to lose it’s history and character. They want the flag gone, Australia Day abolished. They want British colonial history demonised because that is what gave us the rights and freedoms that they want to take away from us, especially the right to individual property ownership and the right to free speech.
  

• These other groups are your enemies. They want to CRUSH you. They want to break your movement before you can organise against them.
  

• Their best weapon is to demonise you as violent racists. Make the rest of Australia hate and fear you. Make people hate the Aussie flag as a symbol of, for example, the Nazis - a fascist movement from 1930s Germany that our own grandfathers fought and defeated (under the exact same Australian flag they want to take away).
  

• You will go to that rally with good intentions, with your flag, and before you know it some violence has been started by faceless men in masks waving Nazi symbols. They do something awful like beat up a black person or start a fire or smash a shop window or start a fight - and they will be very careful to do this in front of mainstream media cameras.
  

• The media will then beam that violence into the homes of the 24 million people who didn’t go to the rally. It will be on the front page of the paper. The flag will be associated with the violence and racism and nazis. THAT will be the story of the day, and that is how the rest of the country will be made to view it. It doesn’t matter how many social media posts you make saying the opposite, nobody will see those, except your echo chamber.
  

• YOU will then be smeared by association as one of THEM. A crazy racist violent Nazi-adjacent person. Your face will be photographed by the police, and put in the facial recognition database, and you will be put on a list, perhaps to be watched. Your mobile number will have been collected as in the area. Maybe your face will be in the paper. You might lose your job. Then you might be doxxed and your name will be in digital granite, so you can’t get another job.
  

• Nobody will remember your reasonable argument that actually Australia has had way too much migration and cannot handle more right now. And nobody will want to hear it. You won’t be able to tell anyone. Remember how ordinary people would not listen to any criticism of the covid jabs, because media had prepared their minds to reject “crazy antivaxxers”? Well they’re doing the same thing right now.
  

• This rally appears to be a DELIBERATE honeypot trap. The organisers are anonymous. How do you know they aren’t the exact people who want to demonise you?
  

• Tommy Robinson has a rally organised for London on this exact issue, to take back the UK from decades of multicultural absolutism and open borders nonsense. It’s scheduled for September 13. Two weeks away.
  

• Tommy Robinson has organised rally marshalls to keep out the masked thugs who want to bring Nazi symbols and violence in order to smear them. They send them home. They don’t let them start trouble. Who are the marshalls here at March for Australia? There are none, because it was anonymous. There’s your first clue, Sherlock.

The media is preparing the public to hate you. Have a look.

• ABC Investigations looks at who is organising it and finds a couple of names associated with far-right groups.

It’s important to note that these “far-right groups” (as pictured at the top of this story) are the exact brownshirts used to demonise you. They are most likely a couple of deluded people who sincerely believe what they claim, plus 90 percent fakes: federal police undercover operatives, ASIO or other intel agencies, or other paid people whose agenda is to scare off ordinary people.

These groups are not organic. You’ve seen the photos: all in black, marching like militia, always with face masks. They have face masks because they are fake and want to go back to their normal life after demonising you.

But ABC dutifully does its job to find that some of these people are associated with organising this rally: there’s the big warning sign for you that it’s a trap. It probably was them, and they are doing their exact job - organising a rally anonymously at which you will be demonised. Thank you ABC for reporting that the original websites included a call for “remigration” - a clearly extreme warning indicator. What, kick people out who are already citizens? Don’t fall in this trap - these are bad faith anonymous people trying to smear you.

But - and here is the danger. Look at how ABC reports. They are already setting everyone up to look like a racist if they dare to oppose mass migration.

Look at the language: in the headline is “white nationalist”. Are you getting the picture? You must be racist if you want your nation to remain a nation. If you go on Sunday, that’s what they’ll say about you, too.

Look at the ABC’s quoted experts. Josh Roose at the bottom under the subhead “far right in plain sight”.

ABC introduces him as: “Joshua Roose, a political sociologist from Deakin University, is an expert in extremism.”

What they failed to say is that Joshua Roose is also a former Labor Party member who conflates “anti-vaxxers” with “the far right” which is a vague term meaning “enemy”. Dr Roose pushes Permanent Canberra’s key message “they’re trying to recruit”, comparing the organising of political opposition to the coerced covid jab policy to pedophile grooming here. (See this story here for more)

The UK Telegraph also lays the groundwork to paint you as a violent extremist like Victorian cop-killer Desi Freeman here in this story from Tuesday

Without knowing whether Desi Freeman is mentally ill or what is actually going on, the UK’s Telegraph has begun laying the groundwork, tying Freeman in with the Wieambilla cop-killers as “sovereign citizens”.

They may well be soveriegn citizens and that may have contributed to their shootout with police. But I’m interested in this next paragraph regarding Wieambilla:

“All three subscribed to extremist Christian beliefs that appeared to intensify over Covid, when Nathaniel and Stacey Train lost their jobs at a local school for refusing to be vaccinated.”

You see: if you opposed the dangerous rollout of poorly tested covid vaccines (reasonable) and were forced out of your job because of it (tyranny of the state) you are therefore just like the extremist Christians of Wieambilla who are cop killers. And look! Here’s another cop-killer Desi Freeman just like them!

You see how the ground is prepared. See how the error of category is introduced, the ellision between topics.

The mention of Wieambilla is important because they want more “domestic terrorists” - there just aren’t enough racists around for equal reporting with the more numerous Islamist jihad attacks.

So Wieambilla is what groups like the NSW Council for Civil Liberties point to, in order to deflect ASIO and the AFP away from Hamas supporters (who they like) and onto “white racist supremacists” who they don’t like.

See how they do it in this submission here on a Federal Parliament Senate Committee inquiry into Right Wing Extremist Movements in Australia.

Because the NSWCCL wants to deflect the security services away from Islam and onto the “white racists”, they wrote: “There have been many incidents of right wing terrorist attacks which have caused large death tolls in Western countries.”

But compared to Islamist jihadi attacks, no. That is why only 4 of 31 proscribed terror groups in Australia are so-called “right wing”, the rest are all Islamist (except for one, the Kurdistan Workers Party).

But the NSWCCL wants to change all that. If you like Australia and want it to retain its national character, flag and history then they want YOU on the list. Otherwise it just looks Islamophobic.

That’s why the NSWCCL submission writes: ““Right wing extremism refers to radical support for ideologies characterised by ‘toxic ultranationalism’, xenophobia, political conservatism and populism, white supremacy, anti-democratic rhetoric, racism and intolerance for minorities in Western society”.

That’s why Wieambilla is so important to them: they are building a case, a grievance narrative, to justify sicking the security organs of the state against you.

Here is the ABC building that case today: “Tara and Wieambilla residents reach out to Porepunkah after 'two very similar' police shootings”.

You see? If you go on Sunday, that’s the category you are going to be put in. Adjacent to them. “Very similar” to them.

They need to myth-build. They need to exaggerate a “right wing” threat in order to justify setting ASIO and the AFP onto the political enemies of the idiotic policy of mass migration into a housing crisis.

Many powerful and wealthy groups want that migration policy to continue and they want to use the power of the state against you.

Do you think, that - perhaps - some thugs might turn up to this rally on Sunday, on behalf of the people who want to crush you, and start some violence, so that YOU will be demonised and be put in that same box? I do.

That’s how politics is done in Australia.

In my judgement the balance of probabilities is that this rally is a smear trap, possibly designed by corporate brownshirts, using tactics described by former US State Department official Mike Benz from the old USAID and US Institute of Peace to destabilise countries and break movements.

Listen here to how Mike Benz, who is also the executive director of the Foundation For Freedom Online, describes what the US Institute of Peace did, and think about it in relation to this rally. It will blow your mind.

We desperately need an actual rally organised by real people with real names, for ordinary people (who are not racists) to oppose the excesssive mass migration policy of the government, to support our history, to support our flag, our nation and our national day. That includes the people who migrated here and are now citizens. Including people of all races.

We are a multi-racial country but it’s time to reject multicultural absolutism and the migration economic ponzi: and not just because there aren’t enough houses. Also because societies are fragile and we want to keep our nation.

But what is coming on Sunday is just plain trouble.

EDIT 28/08 - : Also - observe how this rally is being publicised, reported on in mainstream media. If powerful interests did not want you to know about it and go, then this rally would not appear in your social media feeds. It would be as suppressed as the covid vax injured. But every man and his dog knows. No. Someone wants you there. They want to teach you a lesson.

Here is a link to more on the deliberate creation of the housing crisis:

Here is more on how Australia runs dirty tricks to shut down political movements. For the record, I think the Sovereign Citizens are on the wrong track. I respect the rule of law. But I also respect people’s right to free speech and free association.

And here are the true culprits behind Sydney’s anti-Jewish hate (it wasn’t Iran)

All my posts are free and in the public interest. This is a skeleton post as I’ve not got time for more, I’m trying to finish a book, so you’ll find it’s less dense with links than normal. Sorry for that, there’s about 10 Substacks I’d like to do but I’ve just no time

He was sitting for dinner at an aged-care facility on Friday, when my Aunty Katie ambushed him with the glossy new title, fresh off the press - an advance copy of Covid Through Our Eyes.

To this day, the frail-aged elderly are often isolated in their rooms if they test positive, even if they have a minor cough for a day, as aged care facilities prioritise caution.

The only people they see for a week are plastic-draped, masked apparitions in bio-hazard face shields who deposit meal trays with plastic-gloved hands before scuttling out to throw the PPE in a bin by the door. For them, 2025 is still 2021, only marginally better: they can get visitors now.

Aunty Katie herself had been out of isolation for just a few days, so the book was a great surprise. Tom was delighted to see it and excited to read it. He urged me to provide a copy for the shared library, which I will do this week when the book becomes available for purchase at the website here.

I urge you to do the same, because this book is the crowbar needed to prize open the blind eyes of the government, so they may unwillingly see the reality of the disaster they have inflicted on our country.

Leading immunologist Robert Clancy, emeritus professor at the University of Newcastle's School of Biomedical Sciences and Pharmacy, has teamed up with Queensland GP Dr Melissa McCann, to collect and edit chapters from those who saw the covid panic from every angle.

Words roll like tears down the page

Some chapters are devastating.

In Part Two, people’s encounters with the genetic covid vaccines roll down the page, each one a personal tragedy.

“That is the day my life would change forever,” writes Antonio DeRose.

“Goodbye to the person I was and hello to a whole new life, one full of pain, disablement and dependence.”

He was given transverse myelitis in October 2021.

A beautiful pair of blossoming young women, Caitlin Gotze and Katie Lees, have their stories told for them, by their families.

They cannot speak for themselves now, because they are dead.

These lives and thousands of others were devastated after Australians trustingly injected a poorly tested and experimental genetic vaccine sold to them as “safe and effective”.

The entities responsible did not want any interference in their vaccine roll-out, or any consequences for themselves after.

In Chapter 7, journalist Maryanne Demasi details exactly how they orchestrated near-total censorship both worldwide and in Australia.

She explains how the ABC paid “fact-checkers” from RMIT University and how tech giants Google, Microsoft and Meta joined the Trusted News Initiative cartel, controlling the news flow.

This book has the intellectual ballast to challenge the Government’s basic assumptions about the pandemic, which it never once questioned despite multiple inquiries and committees and reviews, and the strenuous efforts of a handful of good senators and legislators.

The official reports all end the same way: recommending more of what damaged us, delivered faster, and more efficiently.

None of them ask the basic question: were we even running in the right direction?

This book answers that question.

Introducing… the professionals

An avalanche of 19 perspectives comprise Part One. Some of them become technical in parts, but they provide the necessary intellectual foundation to span the sweeping curve of this disaster, so is not repeated.

They include:

• Professor Robert Clancy, pioneering expert in mucosal immunology, details the exact mechanisms by which the genetic vaccines cause damage in Chapter 9.

• Regulatory expert Phillip Altman devotes chapter 16 to detailing how Australia’s drug safety system failed to investigate any of the red-flags raised.

• Statistician Andrew Madry details the modelling data in Chapter 12, that shows continuing excess mortality in Australia, at least half of which is not caused by covid.

• Lawyer and law lecturer Alex Hatzikalimnios surveys important legal cases brought during the covid panic in Chapter 17, including some positive decisions made since the mandates and public health orders concluded.

• St George’s, University of London Professor of Oncology Angus Dalgleish tells of the rise of turbo cancer in Chapter 11, and how the mRNA vaccinations create a pro-cancer milieu in the body including chronic inflammation.

• Dr McCann writes in Chapter 5 about her shock as the ethical framework underpinning Australia’s previous pandemic plans was thrown out the window. She warned Australia’s health authorities of the mounting number of post-vaccination injuries only to have her concerns dismissed with the glib excuse: “lots of young people die suddenly each year, it’s all coincidental”.

Dr McCann is now spearheading the Covid Vaccine Class Action seeking redress from the Federal Government for the vaccine injured, most of whom were never compensated and have significant injury costs. The case is still ongoing and is still open for injured people to join. It runs on donations - donate here.

And now for the confession: yours truly, I myself, wrote Chapter 3. I could improve on it - I should have put more emphasis on the US Military as a large funder and driver of Moderna, however this chapter has its place because people need to know that Australia’s university and medical research system is being tied up by mRNA funding. It’s the shiny new bauble and they are all running after patents and research collaborations - in every state and territory. It’s not because it’s efficient to incentivise this way, it’s to induce conformity and political pressure. It’s vaccine colonialism. Every state and territory has a university or research elite tied in to the industry, pressuring politicians to support it, and together they suppress criticism and misdirect funding Australia-wide.

So many voices are raised here in harmony, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

It is best expressed by the clear and compassionate Dr John Campbell:

The amendments were passed at last year’s World Health Assembly and while non-binding, they enable the unelected body to set the agenda for Australia’s pandemic plans, undermining sovereignty and promoting medical censorship.

The Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Ageing ignored media requests asking for official confirmation of Australia’s position.

The deadline for rejecting the WHO’s amended IHR provisions passed on Saturday, July 19, with no update or word from the Health Department on its website.

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) says on its website that the IHR amendments will come into force on September 19.

DFAT’s website shows the Australian Government is enthusiastically embracing and promoting the WHO agenda.

It sells the agenda as “improving global health”, ignoring thousands of critics worldwide who have warned that it is not about health but instead is a thinly veiled power grab.

Australia is pouring hundreds of millions of tax-dollars into the mRNA industry, nurturing collaborations with Big Pharma giants who profit from vaccines such as Moderna, which holds mRNA patents.

Foreign Minister Penny Wong announced last month that Australia would give $386 million in tax money to Gates Foundation proxy Gavi which acts as an international funding mechanism to make markets in the developing world for vaccines.

Australia has also previously committed $215 million to Gavi’s Covax advance market commitment funding facility, and in 2022 earmarked $100 million for Cepi, another Gates Foundation proxy that promotes mRNA as a 100-day lab-to-jab platform for vaccines.

This monetary relationship explains why DFAT and not the Health Department are interested in the WHO’s IFR amendments.

The WHO, which took a leading role in whipping up the covid panic, has been widely condemned since 2020 as a globalist organ whose policies are for sale, including to the Gates influence network on behalf of the pharmaceutical industry.

The Aligned Council of Australia (ACA), which represents 39 professional groups and 1.9 million people, spear-headed the challenge to Australia’s acceptance of the WHO’s power grab, said at least 11 nations including Italy, Poland, Guatemala, Russia, Israel and the US have abstained from or rejected the IHR amendments.

“These nations echoed the very concerns we have all been raising for the last two years. Yet our government refused to listen and act. What has our Health Minister done to Australia?” ACA spokeswoman Barbara Mavridis said in a statement on Tuesday.

The US, Australia’s staunchest ally, soundly rejected the amendments and has withdrawn from the WHO entirely.

In a video statement posted to X (Twitter) on Saturday, US Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy jr said the new IHR amendments posed a threat to the civil rights and sovereignty of Americans.

“They require countries to establish systems of risk communication so that the WHO can implement unified public messaging globally,” he said.

“That opens the door to the kind of narrative management, propaganda, and censorship that we saw during the COVID pandemic. We don’t want to see that kind of system institutionalized even further.”

Kennedy warned that the WHO was instigating a technocratic control system that uses global health as a trojan horse to destroy democratic freedoms.

“Do we want a future where every person, every movement, every transaction, and every human body is under surveillance at all times?” he said.

The US can co-operate with other nations without jeopardizing sovereignty or civil liberties, Kennedy said.

Children’s Health Defense has more on the US rejection of the amendments here.

One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts said formal legislation must still be passed by Australia’s Parliament to give effect to any elements of the agreement.

"I encourage you not to worry about any dates being circulated right now. No legislation has been passed, and we’re keeping a close eye on any developments,” he said.

Senator Roberts said Australia should exit the WHO and protect its sovereignty - however this is unlikely given Canberra’s enthusiasm for the globalist agenda.

Kennedy Blocks WHO 'Trojan Horse' Emergency Powers Treaty, Warns of 'Global Medical Surveillance of Every Human Being' (Video)

In a powerful, unequivocal statement, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has announced that the United States will formally reject sweeping amendments to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) International Health Regulations (IHR)—a decision rooted in defense of American sovereignty, personal liberty, and democratic accountab…

And for the most concise update, see the wonderful Dr John Campbell below.

US Congressman Thomas Massie introduced legislation on Wednesday to repeal the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, the federal law that protected Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca from being sued in the US when their covid gene-vaccines injured and killed people.

The PREP Act gave liability immunity to anyone involved in the development, manufacture, testing, distribution, administration and use of “countermeasures to diseases, threats and conditions”.

It is this key law that took away any incentive from vaccine makers to ensure that their products were safe if defined as “countermeasures” under a PREP Act declaration, as the covid products were.

The law was brought in under US President George W. Bush in December 2005, allowing pharmaceutical companies to avoid financial risk in public health emergencies.

Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, introduced the Prep Repeal Act on July 16, calling the Bush-era legislation “tyrannical”.

“The 2005 PREP Act prevents people from holding corporations accountable for the pain and suffering they cause during Presidentially declared emergencies,” he said on X (Twitter).

A PREP Act declaration is made by the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), and is not dependent upon other emergency declarations.

The current HHS Secretary is Robert F. Kennedy jr, who is now acting on thousands of injuries and deaths reported from covid vaccines.

As head of HHS, Kennedy governs about 62,000 staff across a constellation of agencies, which include the drug regulators FDA and Centres for Disease Control.

His first big move was the shock-and-awe firing of the entire 17-member vaccine advisory panel in June. The panel has never before warned against any vaccine – even those later recalled for safety reasons.

They were replaced with rigorous and skeptical scientists who showed in the first meeting of the new Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) that they would challenge the agencies.

Kennedy then cut all US funding to Gavi, a proxy of the Gates Foundation. Gavi operates as the funding and promotion arm of the mRNA industry worldwide, and Kennedy said on June 26 that in its zeal to promote vaccines worldwide, Gavi had neglected vaccine safety, treating it as a public-relations problem.

He followed that days later with a bombshell interview with Tucker Carlson where he revealed that the mRNA platform would be re-evaluated for safety.

“I would say there’s a lot of skepticism in this agency about mRNA vaccines,” Kennedy said.

When Carlson asked if Kennedy was satisfied that the mRNA platform was safe, Kennedy said he was not satisfied, but his opinion was irrelevant – they would be tested.

“The safety studies have not been done and there’s enough anecdotes on profound injury and we’re going to answer the questions,” he said.

The original Pfizer and Moderna clinical trials were cut short in December 2020 after just a couple of months of testing. The placebo group was destroyed by giving them access to the product.

The Pfizer product BNT162b2 tested in the large-scale trials was not even the same as the product given to the public. The manufacturing process was completely different. The trial product (Process 1) was made by a sterile replication method while the public product (Process 2) was cooked up in vats of antibiotic-resistant e.coli bacteria broken open to extract the RNA, leaving DNA contamination in the final product.

The “Process 2” product given to the public was only tested on 250 people, with 250 recipients of the “Process 1” group as the control – so without any true placebo.

One of the doctors who raised the alarm about this in the BMJ, Retsef Levi, has been appointed to the new ACIP board.

Since the roll-out of the mRNA vaccines there have been more complaints of death and injury to government safety monitoring sites than for all other vaccines in history combined.

The vaccine injury reporting systems in the US, UK and Australia are all voluntary, not widely advertisied and under-reported – so the authorities do not even know exactly how many people have been injured or killed.

Tucker Carlson asked Kennedy if he thought the covid gene-vaccines killed more people than they saved.

Kennedy said he did not know.

“And the reason I don’t know is because the studies that were done by my agency were substandard and they were not designed to answer that question.

And there’s been a lot of obfuscation about covering up, as you know, about supressing any discussion of vaccine injuries.”

Kennedy faces a mountainous task to fix the sprawling HHS edifice, which has marinated for decades in unchallenged industry-pushed bias.

Watchdog website Open Secrets says there are 1949 lobbyists who have contributed 1069 reports to HHS this year alone, trying to sway the agencies.

Many former agency heads now work for drug companies including former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Scott Gottlieb who now sits on the board of Pfizer, and on the board of CIA- and military-linked National Resilience, which manufactured the mRNA for Moderna’s covid gene-vaccines.

Kennedy has brought scientific rigour to the powerful department he now heads, vowing to ensure that it abides by the May 23 Executive Order to restore “gold-standard science”.

This powerful but often-overlooked order directs US Federal Government agencies to conduct their scientific endeavours in a manner that is transparent, reproducible, communicates error and uncertainty, is skeptical of its assumptions, accepts negative results, is without conflicts of interest and is subject to unbiased peer-review.

Kennedy’s efforts have not been well-received by the drug companies that allegedly hatched a plot to politically end him through a front-group called Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO), whose membership includes Pfizer, Merck, Novavax, Vaxcyte, and hundreds of biotech firms that profit from regulatory insulation, as Brownstone Institute reports.

AUSTRALIA PROMOTES HUNDREDS OF mRNA PRODUCTS

As storm clouds gather in the US, Australia continues to plough tax money into the mRNA industry, which has bloated to more than 600 products in research and development.

Melbourne’s Monash University, which hosts Moderna’s mRNA factory, announced in April that it is extracting government money for a project called mRNA Core to fund scientists to create more mRNA products.

It has contributed to hundreds of products in development.

“Since its inception, the team has collaborated with research institutes on vaccines and therapeutics for COVID, malaria, fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer and tuberculosis. mRNA Core’s central role in these collaborations centres on the design and synthesis of mRNA and mRNA-LNP (lipid nanoparticle) products, which form the basis of a range of therapeutic candidates, from vaccines to gene therapies,” Monash said on its website.

mRNA Core has designed an extensive library of mRNA sequences, through which it’s developed, collectively, more than 600 mRNA-LNP products.

In addition to mRNA, RNA products can also include self-amplifying RNA (saRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), antisense RNA (asRNA), and microRNA (miRNA). All of these products are currently being explored as RNA therapeutics and vaccines.”

What we understand as mRNA, the lipid-nanoparticle-wrapped covid technology that poisoned thousands of people in 2021, must now be called mRNA-LNP because of the other mRNA varieties that are multiplying.

Monash University is enthusiastic about the Monash Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (MIPS) working on an mRNA-LNP tuberculosis vaccine with the University of Sydney and the Centenary Institute, with a pre-clinical trial published in eBioMedicine.

There is nothing wrong with the reliable 100-year-old BCG vaccine for children. It practically wiped out TB in Britain after it was introduced for mass vaccination in 1953. The National Health Service says case numbers fell from 50,000 per year in 1950 to 5745 in 1987. Very few people in Britain have TB: in 2016, more than 73 percent of cases were migrants from high-prevalence countries, mostly India and Pakistan.

But there are no royalties to be made from the BCG (which costs around US$3 a dose) as medical patents only last 20 years.

So the Gates Foundation, its proxy Gavi, the World Health Organisation (funded largely by the Gates Foundation and Gavi) and the Wellcome Trust (historically tied to GSK and chaired by former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard) all set about destroying the reputation of the BCG as “old” and in need of replacement.

Last year I described here how these four groups were working in concert with GSK to push a new TB vaccine, even though that scourge could likely be wiped out simply by delivering the BCG to children in the developing world.

In 2020, GSK licensed its new tuberculosis vaccine candidate M72/AS01_E to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Now Monash has joined the TB charge with the mRNA platform, describing the BCG as having “inconsistent” efficacy in adults.

Claims made to support mRNA

MIPS (Monash) and the Doherty Institute are also enthusiastic about a new mRNA-LNP covid vaccine which they claim has fixed the problem of immune imprinting, which is when the vaccine elicits antibodies against a virus that has already mutated by the time the public gets it, making the jab useless.

MIPS, led by Professor Colin Pouton, has conducted a Phase 1 clinical trial of an mRNA-LNP covid vaccine with the Doherty Institute, with the results published here.

Doherty’s press-release conflates vaccine- and natural-virus immune imprinting as if they are the same, even though natural immunity from prior infection is far more robust.

Research published in Nature in 2021 discussed how people who recovered from the original SARS virus had long-lasting memory T-cells that were reactive to Sars-CoV-2, a whole different virus, 17 years later. That’s natural immunity.

By contrast, people who got an mRNA-LNP covid vaccine had two months of immunity, before it waned and went on to create negative efficacy.

The press-releases touts the new MIPS/Doherty product, called “mRNA RBD-TM” as having stronger antibody responses in mice, even though blood-borne antibodies are a poor proxy for real-world immunity.

Dr Harry Al-Wassiti claimed the new product had the “advantage” of being a quarter of the size of whole-spike mRNA vaccines.

“It could be effective at lower doses, therefore making it more tolerable,” he said in the Doherty release.

There is no dose control possible in mRNA vaccines because they are pro-drugs. They deliver the instructions for your cells to make the antigen. You might make a lot or a little, for a short or a long time and there is no way to know how much of it different individuals will make. The size of the dose is not a reliable indicator of how much product the body will make.

Letters From Australia asked both Doherty and Monash for a response via email but none was received at time of writing.

This research was funded by mRNA Victoria, a government agency that funnels large amounts of tax dollars into Australia’s mRNA industry.

It was also funded by other groups including the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF), the Victorian Government, the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council and IFM Investors.

To break down the funders:

The $24 billion MRFF was set up in 2015 to pay for medical research to benefit the Australian public. Instead it is being used to fund mRNA research that will enrich patent-holders and Big Pharma. It also gives universities funding for jobs and prestige which they leverage into attracting fee-paying students, status and power.

The MRFF and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) give out $1.5 billion in grants each year, according to Federal Health Minister Mark Butler.

IFM Investors is a Labor-controlled asset manager which has $232 billion in funds-under-management and actively pushes Net Zero carbon nonsense, among other WEF ideology.

It controls all the superannuation money from industry super funds such as Australian Super or Hesta whose boards by law are 50 per cent union appointees. IFM Investors is a “collective”, owned by 15 Australian industry super funds and one UK pension fund.

This ownership structure means Labor has influence over the companies IFM buys large stakes in, and in turn Labor will be influenced by those businesses. They will hobnob and network at meetings and conferences, and will share goals. A major political party is thus tied in to global corporations and now mRNA industry funding. Julia Gillard will be a useful Labor contact over at Wellcome.

It’s worth noting that just as Kennedy axed all US funding for Gates proxy Gavi, the funding arm of mRNA colonialism, Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong announced Australia would pay Gavi $386 million, almost the same amount as was cut.

The mRNA gold rush has deliberately tied in as many states, as many large universities, and as many international collaborations with research institutes as possible.

Not because this is efficient, quite the opposite. It’s because this creates support for the mRNA industry in all of these power centres where research and jobs are located. By giving everyone a cut, they’re all tied in.

Who is going to care if Mrs McGillicudy at Number 19 was paralysed by the mRNA shot?

State governments support the industry because of the prospect of jobs, and because the universities within their state all support the industry.

The universities all support it as they have departments whose scientists get funding and jobs from that industry.

The universities issue the press releases supporting their research, and the media repeats it without question because it comes from “science”.

That’s how you stitch up an entire system to silence criticism.

In Australia, children aged six months to five years with “risk factors” are still eligible for three doses of the mRNA products while those aged five to 18 can get one dose, the Health Department says on its website, despite the risk of life-long disabilities including heart damage.

Kennedy may clean out the US system but heaven help Australia because Big Pharma is metastasizing and its tentacles are in everything over here.
