After Sorry

I just recently read an article by Jon van Tiggelen and i am speechless about the information portrayed in it. basically how the "white" just totally wrecked an aboriginal community to a degree beyond reproach. The children do not fear being sent away and the parents are drunks who gamble away any income or government support money. Here's a few exerpts;

'Incidently, among the kids are also several of the six boys who, along with three young men, were let off with a warning after pleading guilty to the statuatory rapes of a ten year old girl. In words that were to resound around the world, the persecuter had submitted that the act was 'a form of childish experimentaion' and 'consensual in the non legal sense.' Arukun kids are 'very naughty' he'd said to the judge, as if with a wink. 'she probably agreed to have sex with all of [them],' Judge Sarah bradley acknowledged, before releasing them back into the community.'

'One or two males face the circuit cort for rape every month, but mostly it goes on drunk, stoned and ignored. A non-indigenous Wik Mungkan speaker told me how a few years ago she was flown into a Cairns court to interpret for a girl who'd been dragged around the community and raped multiple times. In court the girl clammed up, the case was dismissed, and the girl and her assailant flew home to Aurukun on the same plane. 'So much goes unreported because of the threats, the price you pay if you tell. There is real fear.'

The parents might receive First-world welfare handouts, but the kids get Third-world parenting.

how do you define israel?

These are snipets of an article written by Israeli/American peace activist Jeff Halper for the Australian Jewish News but the paper refused to run the piece...

Why should discussing such important issues for Israel be the cause of such distress for you? Because, I venture to say, you have a stake in preserving Israel’s idealized image that trumps dealing with the real country. In my view, Israel is being used as the lynchpin of your ethnic identity in Australia; mobilizing around a beleaguered Israel is essential for keeping your kids Jewish. I would go so far as to accuse you of needing an Israel in conflict, which is why you seem so threatened by an Israel at peace, why you deny that peace is even possible, why a peaceful Israel that is neither threatened nor “Jewish” cannot fulfill the role you have cast for it, and thus why you characterize my message as “vile lies.”

Wet Sponge

" Every vessel, every container, will only pour out what is contained in it, and that’ s very obvious. And so, your tongue, is your ability to express what lies in your spirit. Television, movies, the friends you hang out with, the music you listen too, everything around you is environmental forces that shape how your being is and how your heart is, and when you open your mouth to speak, it’s like like your heart is a sponge that absorbs all of this material from around you.


Essentially, what you’re doing is squeezing what is in you, and what comes out is going to be what has been compiled in your mind and in your memory. Obviously you can only express what in your heart what has been placed in it. And so in order for the outcome and the output from the tongue to be positive, the input in that needs to be positive; in spirit, in silence, in talking, and throughout our lives "
