Bondi - Do the mainstream and alt media narratives serve Australia

Australians were asked to take a side very early in the case of the Bondi terror attack. Who were the victims of this attack, Who or what was to blame?

Those who jumped in early such as Benjamin Netanyahu grabbed the momentum, aided by Israel's chief media influencers in Australia. Some pointed at the Government's wrongful support of Palestinian statehood and prominent Jewish groups and politicians called for immediate action against antisemitism. On the other side, many in alt media pointed to definitive signs of a false flag or psyop by Israel or globalist puppeteers. Fewer addressed the growing danger of radical Islam in Australia supported by uncontrolled immigration and political cowardice.

State Government responses to gun control missed the point as did the Prime Minster's reference to guns, antisemitism and far right extremist groups as key matters to address. Far less was said by all the above on how the multi cultural polices pursued for decades by both sides of Government are failing the Australian people and decimating our way of life.

HOUR 2: On The War Path

The UK and Europe - at least its leaders - are desperate for a war. After failing to address their budgetary problems, uncontrolled immigration, spiralling energy and food costs and failing infrastructure, these countries are calling their citizens to protect a foreign, corrupt, undemocratic state and face war with Russia, which continues to assert it has no interest in a war against the west.

UK Chief of Defence Staff Richard Knighton advises that Russia wants to divide and destroy NATO, which is why it's necessary to prepare for a brutal war:

He says "The war in Ukraine and Russia's previous record show Putin's willingness to strike neighbouring states, including their children and civilian populations. The Russian leadership has made it clear that it intends to challenge NATO, constrain it, divide it and ultimately destroy the alliance.

A new era in defence means not just that the armed forces and government structures need to act more actively. It means that our entire nation needs to step up. And to do that, we need to contribute to this national dialogue and bring these issues to the forefront, as our allies have done in many countries across Europe."

It becomes a problem for the West if Russia begins to take these leaders seriously - which it must do.

The elephant in the room is the US. The message of the recently released National Security Strategy provides a strong clue. Germany has recently acknowledged the end of Pax Americana and the need to ramp up its own military spending. However the Europeans need more than financial resources to fight a world war.They need citizens that have a stomach for this, conscription or not.
