A commenter on this site said that we are watching life through a looking glass.
This chance comment made one of our other contributors refers back to a quote from Lewis Carroll's book " Through the Looking Glass " and a quote from the Cheshire Cat.
He was talking with Alice, newly arrived in the land where insanity and nonsense prevailed. He said “we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.” “How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice. “You must be,” said the Cat, or you wouldn’t have come here.”
In 1942, my wife’s Uncle was a metallurgist in Papua New Guinea. At the height of WW2 , he was living in the jungles of one of the hotbeds of the conflict. Unable to serve in the War due to being deaf ( years of working in a goldmine in New Zealand) he served in his own way by doing his bit and carrying on.
I found a transcript of his recollections of the time in Papua New Guinea during the war and I wanted to share it with you. It is typed as he shared it all those years ago. His time in the War in the jungle of Papua New Guinea.
Here is his story of walking out of the jungles of PNG in 1942. As a courtesy. I have omitted parts that could identify him or his family.

As the insanity of the Soros funded New World Order sweeps the planet like a plague of locusts devouring everything decent in its wake, we are facing an enemy that is relentless and gaining strength. Not because of its numbers, but because our media and many of our politicians are encouraging it and demanding that we do not fight back.
During the protests 2 years ago, the wave of desecration of our monuments and the vilification of our public figures was an international disgrace.
Abraham Lincoln, Christopher Columbus, James Cook, Queen Victoria, Sir Winston Churchill…. Men and women who did more to bring enlightenment and progress to the world than few have ever done subsequently.

Of all the magnificent units and regiments of the Australian Army I doubt if any have a better claim to have been the one that saved Australia than the 39th Infantry Battalion, the first to advance down the Kokoda Track to confront the Japanese.
There are a number of units who could claim this title. The 25th Brigade in the defence of Milne Bay and the Coral Sea Battle. The former was supported by the RAAF. The Coral Sea Battle was a largely American enterprise. The 39th held the Japs at bay alone and unsupported until the 7th Division arrived fresh from the Middle East. For that they get my vote without detracting in any way the efforts and performance of all of our other units, and the Americans, who took on the Japs.

A giant Kangaroo has been terrorising the residents of an isolated outback Australian Community and locals fear it is the first of a new super breed of Rogue Roos infected by a mutant strain of Covid-19.
The town, situated on the edge of Sturts Stony Desert in the arid South West of Queensland, had its first night of horror in December last year.The Local Police Officer, who has requested anonymity , said that he received a phone call at the station at 2 am on the morning of December 2nd.
Have a look at the graphic below and ask yourself: are you in an abusive relationship with your Government?
If you are like me, I decided that I answered " yes " too many times and I want a divorce.

The western world is breaking down with stunning speed as all the lies, delusions, corruption and fake fiat money printing has reached a tipping point of collapse. Nothing works anymore. The governments of the world are criminal cartels that are deliberately dismantling food and energy resources necessary to keep half the human population alive.
This coming winter, Europeans are going to starve and freeze to death in record numbers that hearken back to the Dark Ages, pre-electricity and pre-fossil fuels. North Americans won’t be spared either, as rolling blackouts and food scarcity will dramatically worsen in the coming months.

I saw a clip from a newspaper from 1975 which quoted from the Communist Rules for Revolution in 1919. It is in itself a frightening read because it exposes the truth about what is happening over 100 years on… in almost every Western Country throughout the free world.
" Corrupt the young. Get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial. Make them less rugged. "
Of course, Snopes, the highly regarded vanguard of truth, decries the article as FALSE. Whew. I feel so much better now. NOT.
Every now and again we receive emails or read something that makes so much sense. This one started circulating over a year ago, yet it still keeps surfacing. As it should.
Over the last decade energy prices have increased by well over 100 percent and our coal-fired power plants have been replaced with subsidised, intermittent and Chinese-made solar panels and wind turbines.
As a result, Australia has lost over 200,000 manufacturing jobs in the last 30 years, with the decline significantly accelerating over the last decade. Australia’s manufacturing output has fallen by five per cent in real terms over the last decade for the first time in the nation’s 120-year history.
When war broke out on 3rd September, 1939 there was no mad rush of support for the causes espoused by Britain or for Poland and other occupied European countries. Americans were very much of a mind to remain out of any European war. There was no universal feeling of kinship towards Britain and there was, in fact, quite a lot of sympathetic support for Hitler. The second most common language spoken in the USA at the time was German and to cap it all the Neutrality Act prevented any engagement, let alone involvement, by Americans with any belligerent country. That included Britain and France as well as Germany.
Legend says that if you displeased the King of Siam, he would give you a white elephant. These rare and protected elephants were incredibly expensive to keep. So a “White Elephant” came to mean a possession that is useless, troublesome, expensive to maintain and difficult to dispose of - like a Sacred Cow, but much bigger.
Today the deluded rulers of the Western world are gifting us and future generations with plagues of Green Elephants – useless, expensive, protected, green rubbish.
