Any commentary or reference to the contribution by Heston Russell on 10th March (Moral Injury) may seem somewhat belated. Fact is that this whole disgusting witch hunt makes me so furious with anger that I find it difficult to put words together coherently, rationally or civilly. Civility really has no place in this discussion because the discussion does not deserve it.
I have followed, among others, Heston’s site, Voice of a Veteran, since its inception. I am not a veteran myself. I was a Nasho during the Korean War which ended hostilities during the time I was conscripted. At the time I was under 21 and the law then was that persons under that age could not be conscripted for overseas service unless they had parental consent. My mother would not give consent. I remained in the CMF as a volunteer after my 2 year conscription was finished. By the time the Vietnam War started I was married and too old anyway.
This purge on our most elite soldiers is a matter of national shame because it rejects the notion that these men have put their lives on the line in defence of our nation and our way of life. This is a matter that we should all be eternally grateful for but instead, we have a collection of little nobodies who think that they are on a higher plane than the rest of us and sit in judgement of those who have volunteered to defend us.

President Joe Biden is a shadow of his former self. Long gone is the aggressive, pugnacious, and partisan Democrat who mistreated Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in his confirmation hearings. Today, Americans see a President who is clearly mentally diminished and is getting worse on a daily basis.
During the campaign, Biden refused to submit to a cognitive test. When asked by CBS News correspondent Errol Barnett if he would take a test, Biden snapped, “No, I haven’t taken a test. Why the hell would I take a test? Come on man, that’s like saying, before you got in this program, if you take a test where you’re taking cocaine or not. What do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?”
Readers on this site have been commenting about a disturbing topic that seems to be being buried under a sea of censorship. What started out as being reported as widespread side effects among the crew of HMAS Sydney following vaccinations for our friend and saviour the Covid vaccine, has now been sanitised to read " mild side effects. "
Apparently, these mild side effects required hospitalisation of some of those mildly affected sailors but we are assured that this was purely precautionary. Well, golly, I feel better. Thank goodness that our bureaucratic health officers are on top of this so that we can all rush off to the polling booths and re-elect the people who are our prison guards and purveyors of that " fabulous truth " that it is for our own good.
I don't know about you, but I am bloody sick and tired of the whitewash that is going on in our country and other countries around the globe who are telling us that when we see bullshit, we are actually seeing rainbow unicorns.
More importantly, are we nonvaccinated people about to be shunned by others?
When I was a little girl of maybe 6 years, my two older brothers and their friend Norman had a gang called " The Silent 3 ". They had a clubhouse in the old coal smithy down the back of the property not far from the chook yard. It was an old corrugated iron shed that had been lying unused for years and was the perfect place for The Silent 3 to claim as their gang headquarters. Inside was a dirt floor and it housed the bones of many possums and other creatures who had gone in there to die.
In this smithy, a plan was hatched that could have seen my Teddy Bear die from grief. Let me tell you how it happened.

Disposable face masks (single use face masks) are produced from polymers such as polypropylene, polyurethane, polyacrylonitrile, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyethylene, or polyester.

I have taken the last few months to travel and meet with a considerable number of Veterans and their families who have reached out following the release of the Brereton Report in November last year. In my travels, I met with Veterans, Mothers, Wives, Husbands, Fathers and Children from all across our country including Sydney, Perth, Brisbane, the Gold & Sunshine Coasts, and Townsville. I listened to accounts that made me shocked, saddened, disappointed and disgusted at the way that these Australian Citizens had been treated. With Australia Day just passed, the irony of just how un-Australian some of the stories and information I have seen first hand is not lost on me. Further examples of premeditated punishment and confirmation of the toxic leadership culture being exerted by senior leaders in our Defence Force, specifically the Chief of Army and those he must answer to.
Almost three quarters of people over 50 who had previously expressed a wish to die no longer had that desire two years later, according to a study.
The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA), surveyed 8,174 people over the age of 50 and found that 3.5% expressed a wish to die at Wave 1 of the study. However, as the report states:
“Seventy-two per cent of these participants no longer reported a wish to die when reassessed 2 years later”.
Researchers behind the study from Trinity College Dublin found that the “wish to die” among older people is often “transient” and linked with depression and feelings of loneliness.
Furthermore, TILDA found that 60% of those who reported a wish to die also had “clinically significant” depressive symptoms while half had been diagnosed with depression.

Most people in Australia know what a feral pig is. They are a major pest and they pose an enormous threat to our agricultural industry because they destroy crops and pasture and they spread weeds and disease. They prey on our livestock.
We have a feral pig outbreak unlike any other in the history of our great Nation. Because they are in our cities and urban environments and they are somehow able to do their damage by remote control while safely gobbling at a trough in Canberra and our State capital cities.

I cannot help but wonder if America is on the brink of a second Civil War. But with a twist. Will it be a Civil War and a Revolution all rolled into one?
Americans are growing angry and frustrated that their new Government is doing nothing but further push them into subjugation and a position of powerlessness.
As the old novels used to say before the Indian Uprising, the Natives are getting restless.
As another man's life is torn apart by the rabid left and MSM, I am reminded of the story of the boy who cried Wolf. One day, people will simply stop believing ANY woman and that is a very dangerous situation indeed.
Trial by Media must stop and stop now. Innocent until proven guilty is no longer part of the gameplay. It is guilty until proven innocent and it goes against everything our system of Justice stands for.
The plight of our elderly in today's so-called caring society is something for which we should all feel shame. But how much of this neglect is of our own making?
I watched the episode of Hardgaves on Sky News Australia the other night and he had a segment on the Royal Commission into Aged Care. Bronwyn Bishop was one of his guests. As always, she offered her rare insight into a problem that she approached with her normal passionate and insightful commonsense. One particular issue she highlighted was the role of the volunteer entertainers and musicians who gave of their time so generously and contributed a worthwhile and much eagerly anticipated injection of pleasure on their regular visits.
