Reports coming out of Australia say that the Wednesday “counter-terrorism” raids across the nations were aimed at preventing a plot by ISIS to behead some random Australian person.
Prime Minister Tony Abbott claimed that a “senior” ISIS member who is Australian had sent messages to supporters inside the country urging them to kidnap and behead a random person in Sydney.
“This is not just suspicion, this is intent,” insisted Abbott, while police said the operation, which detained 15 people, was the largest ever anti-terror crackdown inside Australia.
Details remain scant, and the decision to launch the operation just days after committing 600 ground troops to the war on ISIS is bound to fuel speculation that the Australian government timed it to tamp down public opposition to a new war in Iraq.
Mental darkness — Pretense of good hiding a criminal intent
Has there ever been a politician who enriched himself upon the misery of the public — in broad daylight and in full view of the public? Career suicide surely, for first must come the pretense of a good intent to gain the public support he needs to fully gratify his criminal intent.
@John Ellis: "the public support he needs to fully gratify his criminal intent."
Me: 'Scuse, pliz? Could you be a bit more specific on 'his criminal intent?'
See main post below.
Inviting the world to your borders is as dumb as it is dangerous.
And pretending that borders are anything more substantial than imaginary lines drawn on the ground by politicians, or granting them any more legitimacy than the turf lines proclaimed by the dominant street gang in any random urban hellhole, is as dangerous as it is dumb.
@Thomas L. Knapp: "And pretending that borders are anything more substantial than imaginary lines …"
Me: 'Scuse, pliz? The entire Aus-border is ocean shore; little could be less imaginary.
[Not so BTW, there is a comment addressing you and a colleague of yours here; IF you ignore it THEN a) your right, and b) at least I'll know that ignoring is deliberate.]

@dan: "Inviting the world to your borders is as dumb as it is dangerous."
Me: 'Scuse, pliz? That's *not* what any Aus-govt. does; the main message from Tweedle-Libs is "Repel all boarders!" – and Tweedle-Labs must approximate, else prompt electoral suicide.

fast forward to today:
Terror raids: Recruiter Mohammad Baryalei behind Islamic State
plot to murder Australians, police say
While beheading was not specifically mentioned in the alleged phone call
on Tuesday – one of several believed to have taken place between Baryalei
and Azari – it is assumed that this would have been the method of the
killing… http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-…
Azari & Baryalei are Afghans & no doubt Hazara, search their names, as are most Afghans in Australia. surely Shia! are we aussies confused? yes.
@oddie: "are we aussies confused? yes."
Me: 'Scuse, pliz? To whom do you refer with your "we aussies?" IMHO, anyone keeping up via adequate comparisons between the MSM+PFBCs (= for-profit media + publicly financed broadcasters) and the 'alternate media' (= internet etc.) would be far more likely to suffer rage than confusion.
Additionally for "we aussies," also IMHO, 'we the people' are fully de-sovereigned pure-passengers; confused or not, we are (and most probably *always* were) fully forced into the "mushroom club" = kept in the dark and fed on bulls**t.
See main post below.
Most 'Western' democracies are *total* sham; a properly-functioning representative democracy has at least four prerequisites; a) an aware and engaged electorate, b) full and fair info-flows, c) a reasonable range of honest candidates who d) on election, faithfully represent the will of us, we the people. Of course, proven by anything slightly more acute than casual observation, we lack all four.
The 99% (= we, the people) are ppp-dd'd = pushed propaganda paradigm dumbed-down.
The corrupt&venal MSM+PFBCs transmit and often *actively augment* lying, psyop propaganda.
The PFBCs = publicly financed broadcasters clearly have govt. 'permission' to lie = proof of a conspiracy. The entire 'public discussion' has been moved into a lie-cloud, and that lie-cloud has been steadily pushed away from reality. One ineluctable proof of this is the 'fairy story' (= filthy lie) of the 'brave little David conquering the ugly Arab (these days Arab/Muslim) Goliath,' dating from latest Plan Dalet and its Deir Yassin-type massacres, say. This lying narrative has been pushed across most of 'the West,' enabling the ghastly ethnic cleansing of Palestine by murdering force, premeditated in the 50 years following 1897, and in continuous/intermittent criminal operation 67+ bloody years long, right down to the 'current moment' with the latest IDF outrage against Gaza.
As to Abbott&Co, they are only the latest set of traitors masquerading as 'leaders;' proven since the putsch against EGW, by successive govt.s of both 'flavours' (bipartisan = un- & anti-democratic, since such offers the voters *zero* choice) implementing the erring-ideology neoliberalism, aka 'voodoo economics,' thanks, but "No, thanks!" to utter cretins like "TINA!" Thatcher, Reagan (in Aus Fraser (apart from "razor gang" a bit slow) then Hawke/Keating (Lab), Howard/Costello (Lib)) and the rest of the corrupt 1%'s equally corrupt puppets. The system is working presumably as designed against us, we the people's interests.
The internet exists to destroy bad information. Posting bulls**t does not work anymore (thnx Kratoklastes); it is incumbent on competent netizens *not* to tolerate any bulls**t at all, but to expose it everywhere; just say "NO!" to all lies. Only so may we ever reclaim our improperly alienated sovereignty.
