American Beer Experiences
After my
harsh words about Budweiser, several of my readers suggested Sam Adams.
I found some at the local bottle shop tonight and sampled it upon returning
home.
Good news: It's better
than Budweiser
Bad news: It's still undrinkable mule's piss
Can some of my American
readers recommend some USA brews which are not undrinkable mass-produced
swill?

Local Psycho Religion Watch
My fellow "australians"
over at http://islam.org.au have removed
the article I posted about earlier
(thanks to Peter Q. in Perth for the heads-up). I notice though that the
lovely essay
promising the destruction of jews is still up. In fact, check out the
whole articles page
- there's hours of fundamentalist psychosis to entertain you.
Oh, and then there's
this. If
any of the bastards responsible for this publishing this shit have not
yet gained citizenship, can someone explain why they have not been deported?

Christ
almighty, he's getting worse
 Richard
Neville has posted his latest
batch of psycho-jabberings, loosely based around the Bali massacre...
Sick
of the Sound of My Own Voice
Journal of a Futurist, October 21, 2002
We're sick of it too.
Why don't you try shutting up for a while?
Couple of paragraphs
of meaningless babble before we get to the first Neville-gem:
Others
chose this moment to settles scores. The thought police laid into the
cosmic cartoonist, Michael Leunig, whose decades of quirky insights
will remain pertinent long after their own leaden accusations have turned
to dust. Last Xmas, Leunig had apparently played around in print with
the notion that Osma bin Laden might actually be a human being, one
even deserving of compassion. Such naked spiritual conjecture flies
over the heads of our ASIO wannabe pundits, who build their careers
on the distorted files they compile on their enemies.
Oh, lord protect us
from the evil right-wing secret police who might actually be offended
by the notion that a psychotic mass-murderer is a sweet huggy-bear needing
of some love and attention.
Alternative
Visions of War
Such types would have you believe the bombs in Kuta have blown away
all possible objections to George W Bush’s War on Terror. Far from
it. This ruthless mass murder of innocents confirms my oft expressed
fears that the war on terror will beget more terror.
News dummy: the islamic
psychos already want to exterminate us. They're not real interested in
touchy-feely discussion forums. They need to be killed, and soon.
(See
AmeriKa Psycho, Ocean Press).
No thanks. Reading
your essays is torture enough.
To
argue this point is not to brown nose Osama or suggest the West should
send flowers to Muslim fanatics. Terrorism needs to be de-fused, not
carpet bombed.
If
a tenth of the energy the Whitehouse puts into its plans to control
the destiny of Bagdad was spent crafting a fair minded peace resolution
in the Middle East, most terrorists would call it a day.
*cough*choke*splutter*
Um, what? Richard,
do you have any functional brain cells left? How the hell is blowing
up a nightclub, full of Australians, in Bali related to
Israelis & Palestinians? Muslim extremists don't want a settlement
anywhere, they want to exterminate us. Get it?
The
one ray of hope is the breathtaking grit of the Israeli refuse-niks,
the soldiers who refuse to serve in the occupied territories. “Our
army’s policies create a hot bed of terrorism”, one of them
said on Sunday night’s brilliant SBS doco, It Is No Dream. These
brave souls are motivated not by ideology, but by their own eyes. They
have seen soldiers commit murder, day after day. Apartheid is public
policy. The press is supine. The Supreme Court has declined to rule
on the policy of liquidations. This is a group that speaks the language
of truth - the former victims are today’s victimisers. And so the
cycle repeats. I doubt if there is a single Palestinian suicide bomber
who has not lost a loved one by foul means.
Sigh. Yes, he actually
wrote this shit.
A
Perfect Date with the CIA
To escape the shock of the Bali bombs, my wife and I went to the movies.
The shows we wanted to see were inconveniently timed, so we settled
for the Bourne Identity, recommended by a normally reliable 13 year
old girl, our daughter. Based on a story by Robert Ludlum, the Sydney
Morning Herald extols it as the “perfect date movie”. Sure,
if your date happens to be a homicidal maniac. What a hackneyed bloodbath
of fisticuffs, shoot-outs, explosions and car chases. No, I’m not
thrilled my daughter gets to see this stuff – it wasn’t even
witty - but them I’m not the one bringing her up. US culture is.
Here we go, more of
Richard's inexhaustible supply of mindless-american-culture-is-destroying-us-all
whinging. He's apparently unfamiliar with concepts such as parental
discipline and not spending money on stuff you don't like.
Richard is very big
on american-movies-as-cultural-oppression conspiracy theories. Back when
he was reviewing films for The Midday Show, he was able to come
up with some absolute howlers, including;
1- the visual design
of the alien in Alien3 was clearly meant as a "penis with
teeth", in what was a clear AIDS allegory. One could have pointed
out to Dicky-boy that the Alien was the same as the one designed for the
first movie in 1979, before anyone has heard of AIDS, but this would probably
send Neville into another deluded rant.
2- The commercial
failure of the dull Dan Aykroyd comedy Coneheads was - for Richard
at least - irrefutable evidence of a vast racist conspiracy against immigrants.
Not this film sucked or this film was just like hundreds of
other movies which flopped. No, Richard knows evidence showing Amerikkka
at it's worst when he sees it.
However,
the Bourne Identity is not entirely without interest. The movie’s
portrait of the CIA is so vicious that even I find it over the top.
Perhaps John Pilger was a script consultant. By now I suspect pirated
copies are screening at Al Q’aida training camps, with a somber
voice intoning, “these are the kind of terrorist thugs who are
holding the world to ransom”. All CIA operatives are depicted as
deranged serial killers who are happy to blow away innocent old ladies,
fellow agents and the heads of African nations. Even if it was half
true, a just government would freeze it funds and send its staff to
Camp X-ray.
Richard is experiencing
a rare moment of lucidity.
There’s
a lot more to say about Bali, but I’m sick of the sound of my own
voice. As a treat, let’s close with a strong voice from Asia. This
comes from the New Straits Times , Malaysia, written by Rehman Rashid,
whose puritan sentiments I reject. However, his fiery eloquence is educative:
He then goes on to
quote some kook at length saying the Sari club was a den of western filth
and decadence, etc. Neville sees such sludge as "educative"
- meaning it's no wonder these chaps bombed this place.
It
was so unnecessary an insult. The nightspots of Legian and Kuta are
all jam-packed with a uniform crowd of foreigners and a spattering of
their local associates. It did not sit well with those locals that the
Sari Club - the slimiest, scuzziest, sleaziest dive of them all - practised
such discrimination.
Oh dear. Such horror.
Perfectly understandable some aggreived types would want to explode this
gang of drunken young sluts and their wanton flesh-displays!
Then Dicky gets into
a serious logical muddle.
This
is not to say that those who planted the Kuta bombs were Balinese. They
might have been outsiders who neither knew nor cared that they parked
their Kijang outside the worst place in town.....
...It
could have been sheer bad luck for the 500 people in and around the
Sari Club in Kuta last Saturday night. If that particular place was
specifically targeted, however, there may have been something personal
in the choice.
Which
would mean this may not have been the work of a global terrorist network,
conspiracy or alliance, but a smaller, meaner act; an act of local vengeance.
No doubt tapping the corrosive new resources of the global "War
on Terrorism" for the material and gumption for mischief, but basically
assailing local grievances.
The
Bali bombings may be linked to global affairs only in that America's
blunderous new war is giving every garden-variety thug, hoodlum, malcontent
and troublemaker in the world an excuse to make trouble and blame it
on the Americans, the Muslims, the Elders of Zion, Osama Bin Laden,
corrupt politicians, capitalism, globalisation, drunken Caucasians in
general or the bossa nova, for all they care.
It's
called anarchy, and it is the antithesis of the global conspiracy of
organised evil the American axis needs so badly to seek and destroy.
While the Western alliance tilts at shadows, the real beast is abroad
and feeding on the remains of governments.
Lordly, Richard's
mind really is off chasing after some good pot somewhere. Here's the argument
so far...
1- Terrorism is all
the Americans' fault. Americans are psychos.
2- no wait, it's all the jews' fault too. If they'd capitulated to Arafat
the Bali bombings would not have happened. (Hey, stop laughing)
3- no wait, it's not really the Americans' or the jews' fault, it's some
local nutcase angered by evil western youngsters with their filthy ways
4- oh hang on, if the Bali massacre isn't the fault of the USA or Israel,
that proves that they are responsible - those darned madmen are
under the impression that a muslim extremist murdering hundreds of people
is part of a worldwide terrorist problem. Those stupid yanks...will they
ever learn?
5- hey, I like these nice yellow pills they're giving me. Why am I tied
to the bed?

Bloggin' Ayn Rand
The chaps at Catallaxy
and Hot Buttered Death
are debating the merits of Ayn
Rand.
Here's my contribution:
I couldn't care less if Ayn Rand is racist or not. I've got a far better
reason to ignore her: she's boring....... Atlas Shrugged
is about as interesting as a pidgin translation of Das Kapital.
Why the hell does anybody read the laborious crap this woman writes? Are
some libertarian ideals supposed to make me overlook the turgid, excruciating
prose? Who cares who fucking John Galt is?

Commie loons are back!
The latest edition
of my fave crackpot rag Socialist
Worker is out. Some highlights from this issue.....
- The government is
murdering refugees
- The government's support of the USA is responsible for the Bali bombing
and the public are against it! (Odd how anti-USA/Howard leftists approve
of public opinion except when it supports an issue they don't like)
- The US spy base at Pine Gap must be closed because (get this) the intelligence
gained there is used in US military operations. Gasp!!
- Refugees are all victims of capitalism. These bozos are never too concerned
with the welfare of refugees from Cuba or North Korea. Funny that......
- This
essay, about the wonders of the marxist tradition. A wonderful example
of the seriously deluded bizarro world that these pathetic kooks inhabit.

The show resumes
Yes, I'm back from
Phillip Island, where I generally just hung out, ate loads of very unhealthy
crap, drank booze and watched the motorbike races.
Apologies to anyone
who has sent e-mail in the last couple of weeks to which I have not yet
replied. Be assured I have read every one and appreciated them all.
I'll put up some pics
later, but for now, some brief trip notes.............
1: Victoria has more
revenue collectors traffic cops than people
2: Unlikely Celebrity Spotting: Gene

3: Phillip Island is very windy
4: The left's reaction to Bali has been every bit as disgusting as I expected
5: Does New Zealand send all its idiots to Australia to annoy us?

Aaron
versus Margo
Dr. Aaron
Oakley forwarded his correspondence with Margot Kingston about the
SIEV-X affair. Makes for entertaining reading....
Dear
Margo,
Since
your SEIV-X obsession continues, I thought it would be pertinent to
bring up the occasion on which 72 people trying to escape Fidel Castro's
Island prison were attacked:
http://www.newaus.com.au/news259castro_massacre.html
The
aniversary of this event was July 13. Strangely, there was no mention
of it on your Web Diary. One suspects that, its not the crime, but who
commits it. Thus, If howard were a commie, Im sure the SEIV-X affair
would have been forgotten long ago. And because Castro is from the "correct"
side of the political spectum, the memory of his victims can be safely
flushed down the Orwellian Memory Hole.
Howards
real crime is being a conservative. SEIV-X is just a stick with which
to bash him.
Aaron
O.
To which Margo responded:
you've
got to be joking, Aaron. SIEV-X concerns us. Are you really saying we
should take the same interest in a matter which concertns and involves
us as something thover which we have absolutelyu no control?
To which Aaron responded:
You
wrote about Enron. That "didn't concern us", but it did not
stop you writing about it.
One
might argue that US foreign policy "doesn't concern us". Yet
a great deal of Web Diary is dedicated to just this topic.
I
might argue that the way Cuba treats its boat people is worth comparing
to the way we do. Very timely and pertinant, wouldn't you say?
I
suggests that "didn't concern us" is just your way shutting
down the discussion.
Well,
I won't let it be shut down.
Comparing
the obsession over SIEV-X and its remarkable silence over the de Marzo
massacre says an awful lot about our media, don't you think?
When
it comes to Marxist tyrants, you and your fellow journalists are silent.
It seems to me that to the left, it is who does the killing that counts.
Thus, you have nothing to say about Castro. I note that in your response
to me you did not include one word of condemnation of Castro. Once again,
this is very revealing.
Indeed.

- Led Zep to reunite?
 Hot
Buttered Death sure is good at finding scary
links;
LEGENDARY rockers
Led Zeppelin are set to re-group after 22 years for a money-spinning
stadium tour of America.
The three surviving
members — singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist
John Paul Jones — plan to hit the road next summer.
Yikes. If their recent
form is anything to go by, this will blow goats on a massive scale. The
Page/Plant MTV No Quarter (Unledded) thing was self-absorbed
pompous crapola which managed to ruin just about every Zep song they reworked.
And did anyone stay awake thru Walking

ever sat thru.
I'f you're after decent
post-Zep work, try Coverdale/Page or Plant's Now and Zen,

All hail the new cow
Just been made aware
of a kick-ass OzBlog: Bovination.
I've been reading it for 5 minutes and I'm already adding it to the links

Peace & love: live from the Australian Islamic Community
I've been doing some
reading at the http://www.islam.org.au
site. I wonder what all the hysterical wankers - who say criticising Islam
is a racist attack on multicultural harmony - would think about some of
the psychotic ravings that appear in the Australian Islamic Press.
This essay - Preserving
The Islamic Identity in The West: Threats & Solutions - has all
sorts of nice things to say, which will make you feel all warm & fuzzy
about multiculturalist fantasties.
Mixing
With the Kaffirs
It
is a fact of life that we must, to some extent, keep close company with
the Kuffar. This is almost unavoidable given that we work, study and,
unfortunately, play with them.
The
Prophet (s.a.w.) said that whoever is with a people for 40 days or more
begins to take on some of their characteristics. As su ch, we must be
very careful of mixing with the Kuffar because, whether we realise it
or not, we are assuming some of their behaviour and beliefs.
So, we non-muslim
bastards are to be treated warily, regardless of any good intentions we
may have.
Muslims
must be aware of the hidden effects of this. Furthermore, the best protection
is to keep amongst other Muslims. Whilst it is a necessity for some
contact with the Kuffar, we should limit it to the bare minimum and
make sincere efforts to offset it with contact with other Muslims. This
is an important part of keeping our Islamic identity and indeed keeping
Islam alive in this country.
The
points mentioned are a few of many. Every aspect of Kafir society is
designed to mislead us from the straight path, even if we cannot see
it.
Yes, we filthy Kafirs
are there to lead them astray and they must stay clear of us.
It
is therefore unavoidable that as long as we live here we will, through
a process of cultural osmosis, take on some of the characteristics of
the Kuffar. The likeness of Islam and Kuffar is like that o f fresh
clear spring water and water brought up from the bottom of a suburban
sewer. If even a drop of the filthy water enters the clear water, the
clarity diminishes. Likewise it only takes a drop of the filth of disbelief
to contaminate Islam in the West. If we have it within our means we
should therefore consider moving to a Muslim lan d whereby we can at
least live amongst our brethren and within an Islamic society free from
the contamination of the disbelievers.
Let's read that again:
The
likeness of Islam and Kuffar is like that of fresh clear spring water
and water brought up from the bottom of a suburban sewer.
If
we have it within our means we should therefore consider moving to a Muslim
lan d whereby we can at least live amongst our brethren and within an

Sweet jeezus. Sewer...contamination....
and these assholes wonder why they have an image problem. Just imagine
the lefty outrage if the Liberal Party or Catholic Church has written
something like this. Oh, and I haven't even got around to talking about
the numerous descriptions of homosexuality as "filth" and "abhorrent".
Oh...and have I mentioned
the article promising

Bashing Fatty Adams - the saga continues.........
This is getting fun:
Professor Bunyip pummels
Fatty Adams' juvenile hate-america hysteria (see my post below).
And that's not all:
Got an e-mail from another aussie blogger about Fatty's latest idiocy.
Turns out Phillip may have really fucked up big time with this
latest column and will probably have some explaining to do. Hopefully,
we'll hear more developments on this very soon.

Fatty
Adams: radio jock, writer and spineless hypocrite extraordinare
|
Back on the 18th of
September, I posted this:
Aussie readers:
be sure to listen to Late Night Live tomorrow
night: as part of his current insane obsession with the evils of
America, Adamski will be speaking to Washington Post columnist Charles
Krauthammer. Going on Phillip's past embarrasing performances against
Jeremy Rabkin and Daniel Pipes, Adams will ask idiotic questions, get
intellectually beaten to a pulp, then make pissy little comments after
his guest leaves.
My prediction proved
spot-on: Krauthammer - whilst polite and witty - made mincemeat of Adams'
juvenile questioning. Adams - whose intellectual prowess barely scrapes
in at the level of "dullard" - was incapable of making any coherent
argument in return, and has now - as I predicted - and as he always
does, insulted his guest after the show. Today's
column in The Australian is vintage Adams: childish anti-americanism:
high on patronising "america is evil" whinging, anti-Krauthammer
personal insults, and utterly devoid of any intellectual content.
Some selected quotes.....
A
COLUMN I wrote in the aftermath of September 11 had me attacked by the
froth-mouthed phalanx of right-wing pundits, the sound of whose fingers
hitting the keyboard recalls the thud of approaching jackboots.
As
expected, Washington is spiralling out of control - and Australia has
as much to fear from its powerful friend as it does from its putative
enemies.
In
evidence, let me introduce you to the wonderfully christened Charles
Krauthammer. It's a name worthy of Evelyn Waugh or Dickens. And it fits
its owner like a glove. An iron glove containing, yes, an iron fist.
For Krauthammer simultaneously evokes notions of a master race and massive
blows to the anvil.
To
describe Krauthammer as an apologist for the present regime does him
a disservice. For Krauthammer never apologises. He is the most hawkish
of the Bush chickenhawks.
In
words as percussive as shell bursts, Krauthammer said the US is dominant
not only militarily, economically and politically, but culturally.
(At
this point, Krauthammer informed me that his wife is Australian, as
though this would prove a comforting notion. My response was to wonder
whether Mrs Krauthammer had much of a say in family matters. If it echoes
the relationship between our respective nations, we should call in the
marriage guidance counsellors.)
If
Krauthammer seemed excessive, preposterous, self-parodic, the presidential
statement that followed showed a power elite in deadly earnest.
As
with Krauthammer's machinegun delivery, Bush's speech was as memorable
for its bad manners as for its message.
Come
back, Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger. All is forgiven. The future
of the world is now in the hands of some very dumb people. Republican
fundamentalists.
Aaron
Oakley responded in The Australian's comments section:
What
a steaming pile of manure.
How incredibly rich of Adams, throughout his life an apologist for assorted
totalitarian regimes, to evoke "the thud of approaching jackboots"
when describing the "phalanx of right-wing pundits" he criticises.
Adams bitter attack on Charles Krauthammer seems to be a result of Charles’
recent pounding of Adams into an intellectual pulp on Late Night Live.
Amen.
Adams - who holds
himself high as a flag-waver for sober humanist intellectualism - is naught
but a relentless hypocrite, intellectual coward and moral degenerate.
What a disgrace that this man is able to use taxpayer funds to spout his
adolescent tantrums, and how incomprehensible that NewsCorp pays him to
write this shit. Is this flea-brained Jabba the best the left in this
country has to offer?
