Most interesting:
"Anonymous far-right groups have launched co-ordinated activity across online platforms in a bid to influence the outcome of the federal election. A group of 'Australian' Facebook pages has been found to be part of a network of at least 15 accounts involved in co-ordinated dissemination of 'misinformation and misleading content', according to analysis by social media intelligence company Storyful... 'Five Facebook pages, sharing anti-Islam content while promoting 'traditional' Australian values, were found to be part of a network of Facebook pages discovered by Storyful that share fringe news content in a co-ordinated manner - links to articles are shared to the network of Facebook pages at the same time and using the same accompanying text. The articles often contain misleading or highly partisan information and many included bigoted or anti-Islam themes. The pages have regularly claimed politicians and the media have remained silent on violence committed by Muslims and frequently spruik One Nation or Fraser Anning.' Storyful, owned by News Corp, The Australian's parent company, said the pages included Guardians of Australia. No sharia law - never ever give up Australia, and Fair Suck Of The Sav, Mate." (Far right unites to sway poll outcome, Mark Schliebs, The Australian, 7/5/19)
Now here's where the plot thickens:
"Of 17 administrators for the Guardians of Australia page, 12 are listed as being in Australia and 3 in Israel. Two accounts listed as belonging to people in India are administrators of the No sharia law - never give up Australia, along with 6 in Australia and 2 whose locations are unknown." (ibid)
If you track down their FB page, you'll see a lead photo, which reads, BANS BEGIN GOA WILL NOT TOLERATE ANTI-JEWISH SPEECH JUST AS WE WILL NOT TOLERATE HATE SPEECH AGAINST THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN ISLAM. Scroll down, and you'll come to a gormless Israeli yoof, name of Hananya Naftali, darkly intoning in a video that RADICAL ISLAM WANTS TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD, apparently by stealth, which boy wonder calls "the silent jihad."
Further down, you'll come to another Naftali video: THE ISRAEL-GAZA SITUATION, in which he informs us, in so many words, that while Hamas rains rockets on Israel, Israel responds against "terrorist targets in Gaza," while simultaneously "taking care of civilians" there by showering them with humanitarian aid, electricity and water.
It appears that what these self-proclaimed Guardians of Australia are really guarding is... Israel. What a surprise!
Now just in case your not averse to rolling in his muck, you might want to check out "IDF reservist" Hananya Naftali's tweets.

Real Zionists Love Fraser Anning
Further to my thesis that Zionists (who routinely conflate Judaism with Zionism) really don't give a damn if right-wing nut jobs like Fraser Anning refer to Jews/the Holocaust/Hitler etc so long as they do Israel's bidding, here's Zionist ranter Michael Burd (Toorak, Vic) joining the dots for us on the letters page of yesterday's Australian:
"As the son of Holocaust survivors, I fully understand the meaning behind the term 'final solution'. In my view, Jewish community representatives have overreacted to Fraser Anning's use of this term, first because I am aware of his background and public support for the Jewish community. Some examples include lobbying for our government to stop funding alleged Palestinian terrorism and moving Australia's embassy to Israel's capital Jerusalem - hardly the actions of an anti-Semite."
And here's Australian-Palestinian activist Ali Kazak (Narrabundah, ACT) to remind us on the same letters page that the one and only target of Anning's speech is Australian Muslims:
"The main point in Fraser Anning's speech is his anti-Muslim racism. His use of 'final solution' was clearly related to Muslims, not to Jews or the Holocaust. For Energy and Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg and others to twist Anning's words to avoid condemning his anti-Muslim bigotry and address this serious racism issue is appalling."

Making Australia Great Again with...
... senator Fraser Anning.
After perusing msm accounts of Mad Hatter's Australian Party senator Anning's reference to a "final solution to the immigration problem," you could be forgiven for thinking that his appropriation of the words "final solution" was the worst aspect of his speech.
You would, of course, be overlooking its primary focus: Australia's Muslims - the principal, if not the only, target of Anning's "final solution":
"Historically... the one immigrant group here and in other Western nations that has consistently shown itself to be the least able to assimilate and integrate is Muslims. The first terrorist act on Australian soil was in 1915, when two Muslim immigrants opened fire on a picnic train of innocent women and children in Broken Hill - and Muslim immigrants have been a problem ever since. To paraphrase the words of Sir Winston Churchill: The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power. The influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those that follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.
"I believe that the reasons for ending all further Muslim immigration are both compelling and self-evident. The record of Muslims who have already come to this country in rates of crime, welfare dependency and terrorism is the worst of any migrants... A majority of Muslims in Australia of working age do not work and live on welfare. Muslims in NSW and Victoria are three times more likely than other groups to be convicted of crimes. We have black African Muslim gangs terrorising Melbourne. We have ISIS-sympathising Muslims trying to go overseas to fight for ISIS and, while all Muslims are not terrorists, certainly all terrorists these days are Muslims. So why would anyone want to bring more of them here?"
I'll return to Anning's "final solution" later. Let's first unpack just some of the nonsense above:
1) The first terrorist act on Australian soil? Maybe... but only if you overlook the colonial-settler genocide of Australia's indigenous population.
2) To paraphrase... Churchill? So the arch British colonialist, Churchill, is some renowned authority on Muslims? Really? Be that as it may, Anning isn't, in fact, paraphrasing Churchill, but rather selectively quoting him, lifting the said quote from some Islamophobic shite that's been circulating on the internet for a few years: here it is with the with the missing bits restored (and highlighted): "The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great force. Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world." Funny how the quote Anning's latched onto and recycled here never contains those missing words. We can't have the reactionaries' favourite Big White Man saying anything positive about Muslims now, can we?
3) Muslims in NSW and Victoria are 3 times more likely than other groups to be convicted of crimes? As today's Sydney Morning Herald revealed in its own fact check of Anning's speech: "The Herald repeatedly asked Senator Anning's office for the source of this claim, and did not receive a response. Both the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research and Victoria's Crime Statistics Agency told Fairfax Media they did not possess or publish reliable data on the religious affiliation of criminals."
4) Black African Muslim gangs? Inconveniently for Anning, the religious background of Melbourne's South Sudanese community just happens to be Christian.
But back to Anning's "final solution," which, BTW, is, in his own words, "a plebiscite to allow the Australian people to decide whether they want wholesale non-English speaking immigrants from the Third World and, in particular, whether they want any Muslims or whether they want to return to the predominantly European immigration policy of the pre-Whitlam consensus." IOW, a ban on Muslim immigrants and/or a return to the White Australia Policy.
Interestingly, local Zionist spokesmen don't seem all that exercised over Anning's appropriation of the words "final solution" - if these curiously muted quotes from The Final Solution - in the Australian parliament (15/8/18, jwire.com.au) are anything to go by:
"Regardless of his intentions, Senator Anning's choice of words would have been unsettling for Jewish Australians... " Anton Block, President, Executive Council of Australian Jewry
"What a poor and inappropriate choice of words by Senator Anning to make a point about immigration... " Dvir Abramovich, Chairman, Anti-Defamation Commission
Could this softly, softly approach perhaps have something to do with Anning's use of his parliamentary platform last month to move - unsuccessfully as it happens - that Australia recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and move our embassy there? (See my 23/6/18 post Time for a New Australian Party)
Of course, none of the msm media outlets, which are dubbing Anning's diatribe 'the final solution speech,' have shown any interest in his services to the country that admits as citizens only bona fide Jews.

Time for a New Australian Party
Clearly, Australia needs a new political party. One unburdened by any pettifogging concern for the national interest. One that makes no bones about getting its inspiration and marching orders from afar. My suggestion is that it be called the Whatever Israel Wants Israel Gets Party (WIWIGP).
And this could be it in embryo:
"Senator Fraser Anning (QLD) [Katter's Australian Party] last night filed a Notice of Motion... to the effect that Australia will recognise Jerusalem as the capital of of Israel and move our embassy to the western side of Jerusalem... the motion was defeated in the senate today by 50-4... Dr David Adler, AJA [Australia Jewish Association] President said, 'It is an explicit core policy of AJA that Jerusalem is the eternal undivided capital of Israel and the Jewish nation... AJA has worked closely with Senator Anning's office and support his motion. 'We want to recognise him as a friend of the Jewish people... It is an opportunity to put Australian senators to the test on this important matter of principle... ' [...] Dr David Adler told J-Wire: 'Obviously we are disappointed that the vote... was lost It appears that both major parties instructed their senators to vote no. We know that there are quite a few LNP senators that given a free vote would have voted yes'." (A motion to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital & to move the Australian embassy there, jwire.com.au, 19/6/18)
Senators Anning, Bernardi, Burston and Leyonhjelm are obvious founding father material, and WIWIGP is sure to grow like topsy as Liberal and Labor politicians, who orate endlessly about 'shared values' and 'unbreakable bonds', declare their true allegiance at last.
In fact, WIWIGP could end up as the largest party in Australia's federal parliament!
Finally, some honesty in Australian federal politics.
