Be The Change.

We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.
- Mahatma Gandhi

Above hero image:  David Kilcullen (left) and Clinton Fernandez (right)

David Kilcullen (born 1967) is the subject of the story here.  He was chief strategist in the Office of the Coordinator for Counterterrorism at the U.S. State Department, from 2005 to 2006.  He's certainly no lightweight. He's been a member of the US deep state, yet still appears to be an independent thinker, or so it seems.  He came out as highly critical of the decision to invade Iraq, saying "There undeniably would be …

BRIEF SYNPOSIS

My fellow Australians, it's time to pull your pants down, bend over and apply lube. You are about to be f*ckd by the Satanic New World Disorder. This is a ritual humiliation along the lines of the COVID 1984 Scamdemic. We have to do this to you every few years, for our safety.

We do this fundamentally because your overlords despise you, and must regularly hurt you for their …

IRAN'S FULL "OPEN LETTER" TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE:

"To the people of the United States of America, and to all those who, amid a flood of distortions and manufactured narratives, continue to seek the truth and aspire to a better life:

Iran—by this very name, character, and identity—is one of the oldest continuous civilizations in human history. Despite its historical and geographical advantages at …

Iran war at a crossroads: US exit or wider conflict?

CGTN

US President Donald Trump has told aides he is willing to end the war on Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. This may be the clearest signal yet that he wants to bring the conflict to a swift conclusion. At the same time, he has warned that Iranian energy infrastructure – including desalination plants – could be targeted if a deal is not reached soon. Meanwhile, the foreign …

US Invasion Hormuz Strait - Could It Be Another Okinawa 1945?

Mark Felton Productions

What happens if the US decides to try and forcibly open the Strait of Hormuz? It could very well be a repeat of the attacks on Allied ships off Okinawa in 1945. Why? Because Iran possesses many weapons eerily similar to Japanese Kamikaze vehicles of WWII including modern Shahed Kamikaze drones, drone Kamikaze explosive boats and capable and numerous midget submarines armed with super-fast …

SCHADENFREUDE 

The USA’s Napoleon is now cornered by Iran.  

WTF will he do now, when perceived as a useful idiot for Israel? 

The most rational decision he might make now, to redeem himself and serve humanity, to would be to do what Hitler did at the end of World War 2. 

Words come to mind

This is an important interview (below) with  Jeffrey Sachs done on January 27, 2026.  I’m parking it on this platform for future reference. 

The interview helps us understand that our empire is ALREADY at war with Iran - using hybrid and economic warfare - that has the potential to soon cause a regional war in West Asia. 

Two key take-always from this interview:-

(i) economic warfare: the intentional collapse of the Iranian currency to cause widespread suffering of the people.  This is aimed …

Now that I have your attention, I want to show you the Murdoch media's propaganda role in Australia - on behalf of powerful forces - in creating the false narrative that there is an "antisemitism crisis' in Australia.    

In particular, The Australian - the national daily - has been obsessively publishing scores of commentaries and stories since October 7, 2023, about 'antisemitism' in Australia.  This is believed to be done to deflect attention on what is happening in Gaza, now officially …
