Western misreading of failure of Israeli election to oust Netanyahu

Western misreading of failure of Israeli election to oust Netanyahu. By Cameron Stewart in The Australian.

Security fears have driven Israelis decisively to the right since October 7 …

You can almost hear the wails of disbelief in Western capitals, ­including in Canberra, that ­Israel’s hard-line leader Benjamin Netanyahu was not swept away in a tsunami-like protest vote.

Why, they ask, would so many Israelis continue to vote for a ­leader whose misjudgements led to October 7 and whose policies since then have killed some 70,000 people in Gaza and promoted perpetual war against ­Israel’s neighbours while ruining its reputation on the inter­national stage?

The reason is simple — Israelis … have much more immediate concerns — like survival against enemies on all sides who, if given half a chance, would kill them. …

Netanyahu’s main opponent, Gadi Eisenkot, was heavily critical of Bibi on character grounds. But on the issues of Gaza, Lebanon, Iran and the unpopular two-state solution there was barely any difference of opinion between the two main leaders and it certainly was not a feature of the election campaign.

Duh. If only the left could see past its own bigotry.

Islamic preacher calls for “preemptive strikes” against “the white man” and white nations

Islamic preacher calls for “preemptive strikes” against “the white man” and white nations. By Jules Gomes and The Electronic Uprising.

Asrar Rashid at the Islamic Centre Nottingham, a registered charity, claims “the white man” commits genocide and tells his audience “Take up arms and defend yourself and do pre-emptive strikes wherever those pre-emptive strikes — which is offensive Jihad — is needed.”

 

Listen to the end (it’s only 1:13).

UK police are refusing to arrest him, despite clearly violating hate speech laws. Meanwhile, a Muslim police officer wants to arrest a British Christian preacher because his preaching caused Muslims anxiety and distress.

 

Imagine if Elon Musk hadn’t bought Twitter

Imagine if Elon Musk hadn’t bought Twitter. By X Freeze.

If Elon Musk hadn’t bought Twitter and fought back against the insanity of the last few years, the West would be much further down a path of self-destruction, self-hatred, and moral corruption:

  • Pronouns treated like sacred scripture
  • State propaganda rebranded as “truth” and “misinformation” used to shut people up
  • Heavy censorship of anyone who disagrees
    Child mutilation and sterilization sold as “gender-affirming care”
  • Birth rates collapsing while governments deliberately import a replacement population that refuses to assimilate and poses a threat to citizens
  • DEI over competence and merit
  • Open borders and cultural self-hatred as policy

​He called the woke mind virus anti-science, anti-merit, and anti-human for a reason. Without the fight he started, the damage would already be irreversible

The woke mind virus is like The Walking Dead… it never stops coming. The fight has to continue or we risk the collapse of entire Western civilization

Nobody is safeguarding our civilization

Nobody is safeguarding our civilization. By Krzysztof Szczawinski.

Western civilization has

  • regulators for finance,
  • watchdogs for governments,
  • frameworks for security,
  • international bodies for everything from fisheries to intellectual property.

It has no institution tasked with safeguarding the civilization itself. This … was an assumption — that what had endured would simply keep enduring. Assumptions are not a strategy.

Every great system eventually requires conscious stewardship. The Romans assumed the Republic would hold. The Venetians assumed the trade routes would always be theirs. Every civilization that ever declined assumed it wouldn’t — right up until the moment the assumption became obviously wrong, at which point it was already too late to do much about it.

 

Sack of Rome, 400 AD

 

What makes this moment different is the paradox: a civilization powerful enough to have shaped the entire world, yet seemingly unable to consciously preserve its own existence.

We have built extraordinary mechanisms for managing parts of the system — the financial regulators, the defense alliances, the legal frameworks.

The deeper foundations — cultural memory, shared values, intellectual honesty, civic responsibility, the willingness to say what is true in public — are left diffuse, unmanaged, and increasingly abandoned. Nobody’s department. Nobody’s budget line. Nobody’s quarterly report.

The result is not collapse. It is drift. Slow, quiet, constant. The kind that shows up not in a single catastrophic event but in the gradual erosion of standards, the slow lowering of expectations, the institutions that stopped reinforcing the civilization’s principles and started undermining them — from the inside, with the best intentions (or not…), in the language of progress.

And into that drift, other civilizations are moving. Not always with armies. Often with patience, money, demographic pressure, and the simple advantage of believing their civilization is worth advancing while ours debates whether it deserves to exist.

A civilization doesn’t need a single authority to watch over it. That would be its own kind of tyranny. But it needs something harder to build and easier to lose: a distributed sense of responsibility among enough of its people, enough institutions that reinforce rather than corrode its principles, and the willingness to examine itself honestly without dissolving into the self-hatred that mistakes destruction for sophistication. …

The answer is not one institution. It is many people, in many places, choosing the same thing: tell the truth. Have the courage it requires.

The barbarians are within the gates, thinking they are more virtuous than us.

In the future there will be fewer smart people

In the future there will be fewer smart people. Via NewsForce.

The peak was in 1990.

 

 

Smart people don’t reproduce so much. Feminism encourages smarter woman to have careers rather than kids, and the only IQ groups above replacement rate in the West are the sub-80s.

In a modern collectivist state, the higher survival rate of smart people counts for little. In contrast, from 1000 AD to 1880 in Europe, average IQ rose and rose because smart people had more kids who survived to adulthood.

A new 1989 approaches: the fall of the globalist project

A new 1989 approaches: the fall of the globalist project. By Brivael Le Pogam.

Not the fall of the Berlin Wall this time. The fall of the globalist project, and its fundamentally collectivist vision of humanity. …

Their problem is that two forces are now tearing this project apart.

The first is AI. For the first time in history, a single individual can own a lever of production that used to require an army of employees, a bank, and a state. AI doesn’t centralize capital. It hands it to the people who build. That is the exact opposite of “you’ll own nothing.”

The second is reality. Exploding debt, collapsing public services despite record taxes, rising insecurity, schools that no longer teach anything. You can lie about reality for decades. You can’t stop it from arriving.

Their upcoming moves:

First, activate their networks. Soros’s foundations, starting with Open Society, have spent years pouring money into NGOs, activist collectives, and “anti-repression” groups that form the ideological and logistical breeding ground of the crowds we’re seeing today from Paris to Montreal. When the argument no longer works, all that’s left is chaos.

Second, manipulate the youth. This is how communists have always taken power. Mao, speaking to Chinese students in 1957: “The world is yours. You young people are like the sun at eight or nine in the morning.” Nine years later, he unleashed the Red Guards: high schoolers and university students who humiliated their teachers, denounced their parents, and burned books. And once they were no longer useful, he shipped some 17 million of them off to the countryside to be “re-educated.” Youth is always the fuel of the revolution. Never its beneficiary.

Third, the globalist elites will do everything they can to keep the chaos going. Because a country in chaos demands more state, more control, more surveillance, more “governance.” Chaos isn’t a bug in their project. It’s how it runs.

Two possible futures:

But either way, their project has only two possible endings. Neither one goes their way.

Ending one: political Islam. They think they can use it as an ally against the West, against the nation, against the family. They forgot Iran. In 1979, the Iranian left, led by the communists of the Tudeh Party, marched hand in hand with Khomeini to overthrow the Shah. Four years later, the party was banned, its leaders in prison, many of them executed. Islamism never lets itself be used by Marxism. It devours it. Your Marxist project will end up eaten by the very people you thought you were manipulating.

Ending two: economic collapse. Because let’s say it plainly: the elites running this project are, on the whole, economically illiterate. Brilliant at storytelling, hopeless at incentives. Ludwig von Mises proved it back in 1920: without private property there are no prices, without prices there is no economic calculation, and without economic calculation there is only waste and shortage. Hayek drove the point home: no central planner can aggregate the dispersed knowledge of billions of people. Global collectivism can’t work. Not because it’s been badly implemented. Because it is structurally impossible. The USSR learned that in 1989. They’re about to learn it now.

Got gold? Several decades of rising interest rates and falling real asset prices coming up.

The peak of globalism was Obama and Macron

The peak of globalism was Obama and Macron. By Brivael Le Pogam.

Two men, two continents, the same casting.

Young, polished, brilliant speakers. Perfect résumés. Total ease in front of a camera. Able to electrify a rally in Ohio and charm a room full of CEOs in Davos in the same week.

They are excellent actors. I mean that without irony. Public charisma is a real talent, and they have it at a rare level.

Mere salesmen:

But look at what they actually embodied.

Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize nine months into his presidency [actually, nominations closed 11 days into his presidency]. Before he had done anything. They weren’t rewarding a record, they were rewarding an image: a post-national world run by institutions and experts.

Macron is the European version of the same product. A movement founded one year before the election, no historic grassroots base, carried by the economic, media and administrative elites. “Neither left nor right.” Translation: attached to no people and no history. Just the efficient management of globalization.

Their whole software fit in one sentence: the global market, supranational institutions and experts know better than nations what is good for them.

Unlimited free trade. Deindustrialization sold as modernization. Borders treated as an archaism. Sovereignty treated as populism.

They weren’t the architects of this project. They were its faces. The best salesmen it ever had. When you need millions of people to accept that their factory is moving to the other side of the world and that it’s for their own good, you don’t send a gray technocrat. You send someone who knows how to talk.

No one’s buying that shtick any more:

That’s why footage of Obama at a rally rings so hollow today. Same tone, same inflections, same staging. But the audience has changed. They’ve seen the movie. They know how it ends.

And the project they carried is dying everywhere.

The US is back to tariffs and reindustrialization. Europe is finally talking about energy, military and tech sovereignty. Borders are a legitimate topic again. Supply chains are coming home. Covid proved that a country that can’t produce its own masks isn’t modern. It’s vulnerable.

The magic is gone, and cannot be renewed. Look at how poor the US Democrat talent pool is now:

Macron is at 15% approval, his lowest since 2017. Obama is back on the rally circuit, and the magic is gone.

But the most revealing part is what came after them.

The system can no longer produce an Obama or a Macron. Nobody that charismatic, that polished, that smooth.

There are two reasons for that.

The first is arrogance. For fifteen years they won without really fighting. The media was on their side, the elites aligned, the opponent demonized in advance. When you win too easily, you get lazy. You stop caring about the casting. You stop working on the script. And it shows: less polished, less prepared, less credible.

The second runs deeper. Truly brilliant people no longer want to enter this system. They know it has no future. Fifteen years ago, an ambitious young prodigy aimed for the elite schools, Harvard, high civil service, the big international institutions. Today they start a company, they build, they go where things are moving. Nobody signs up for a sinking ship.

So look at the bench.

In the US, they ran Biden. A president whose cognitive decline was obvious to everyone except his inner circle, who spent months hiding it. Then they swapped him out in a panic for Kamala Harris, who couldn’t answer a simple question without drifting into word salad. After Obama, that’s a staggering fall. …

That’s the first sign of a dying system: it no longer attracts the best. All it has left are heirs and imitators.

Charisma isn’t enough when reality contradicts the story.

 

The magic is gone. Makes speeches for 500k a pop. Hasn’t eaten dinner that costs less than $250 in years. Undefeated at condescending to regular folks. Will always be known for a presidency that ushered in the Trump era to begin with.

 

What’s next?

What comes next won’t necessarily be better. But it will be different: leaders judged by what they build, not by how well they tell it.

The age of actors is over. Make way for the builders.

In Australia, Albanese doesn’t rise to anywhere near the charisma level of Obama or Macron. But there are several potential builders in sight on the conservative side.

Support for Nigel Farage’s Reform Party is collapsing

Support for Nigel Farage’s Reform Party is collapsing. Via Basil the Great.

The reasons are pretty simple.

Firstly, on immigration, Reform is indistinguishable from the Uniparty. Many supporters are leaving to Rupert Lowe’s Restore party, which wants to restore Britain’s earlier ethnic mix.

Secondly, Kemi Badenoch is doing a pretty good job of transitioning the Conservatives away from the Uniparty, by adopting a distinctly right-wing, Thatcherite agenda focused on lower taxes, reduced state spending, and opposition to net zero targets, while disavowing the policies of 2010 – 2024.

 

The news today is that Reform apparently just buckled on immigration. They posted about Net Zero immigration, causing an absolute pile on in comments. So, Reform responded by copying Restore Britain’s policy of net negative immigration. Reform have been dragged kicking and screaming to this, trying to recapture voters, so they don’t have a lot of credibility on this issue.

Democrat’s revenge

Democrat’s revenge. By the Hon. Vickie Paladino.

None of the conversations taking place by Democrats and leftists in anticipation of retaking Congress are about the ways they’re going to make life more affordable for Americans.

The conversations are exclusively about how they’re going to use power to take revenge on their political enemies.

There is no strategy to lower gas prices or grocery prices. No strategy for the budget. No talk about hearings on affordability or inflation or the stock market.

Just revenge. That’s all they’re talking about, two weeks before an election they believe to be sewn up.

“He has a body count like a f*cking war criminal. We start with the US Congress and it ends at The Hague for Elon Musk.” They cannot wait to be back in charge of the “justice” system.

 

Kevin Bass:

If Democrats get power, they will:

  1. Lawfare Trump officials;
  2. Pack SCOTUS;
  3. Go after Elon, SpaceX, and Tesla — then billionaires, then millionaires;
  4. Crush free speech;
  5. Make voter ID illegal;
  6. Flood the country with illegals.

Takers gotta take:

Robert Reich [American professor, author, lawyer, and political commentator, who worked for presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama] calls for the “defunding” of Elon Musk, calls for Democrats to go after Musk’s companies. “Democrats ought to [start] laying the groundwork for nationalizing Starlink & SpaceX… It should be a public corporation.”

 

 

Swan:

5 years ago: Starlink is such a stupid idea. Anyone wasting money investing in this Musk scam deserves to lose everything.

Today: Starlink is essential to the defense of an invaded nation. Access to Starlink is a human right! Nationalize it!

The Democrats don’t talk about their policy positions, because their coalition of voters agree on almost nothing. The trade union people want less competition from immigrants, the feminists and gays are opposed to Sharia law, and so on. Unable to argue policy, the Democrats — like all mainstream leftist parties in the West today — are reduced to demonizing the opposing leader. Hence, the criticism of every non-left political leader in the last two decades rapidly escalates up to full Hitler.

The only policy most of the left can agree on is taking other people’s stuff.

The Brazilian Biden

The Brazilian Biden. By Sarah Anderson at PJ Media.

For many of us here in the United States, it reeked of 2020. An incumbent who trailed in the first round staged a late surge to claim victory after a last-minute judicial intervention extended voting hours, transport disruptions appeared in areas favorable to the eventual winner, and the losing candidate immediately refused to concede while alleging the rules had been changed midstream. … It’s also giving me 2024 Nicolás Maduro vibes….

On October 4, Lula finished second with roughly 45.16% to Bolsonaro’s 47.03%. Three weeks later, the certified totals showed Lula at 51.79%, with about 64.3 million votes, and Bolsonaro at 48.21%.

I’m not going to go through all the math, but it appears that Lula gained 10,376,694 votes and won by 4,430,191.

Lula claims it was all about getting out the vote. Abstention did fall between rounds, and around three million more Brazilians voted in the runoff. There is also the matter that this was a two-man race, and other candidates complicated the numbers during the first round, taking a combined 9.317 million votes.

But there is still something fishy. For example, those extra candidates were generally to the right of Bolsonaro and even endorsed him after they lost. Are we to believe every single one of their voters suddenly thought Lula was a better option?

And then there’s the rule change. Just after the polls closed around 5 p.m., Supreme Federal Court Justice Cristiano Zanin extended voting nationwide by two hours. We already know that Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court is corrupt, but Zanin specifically was appointed to the court in 2023 by Lula. Oh yeah, and he was Lula’s personal defense attorney during el presidente’s corruption trial. He cited “transportation” issues and pointed out that some areas had reduced bus services. But the voting stations that were already closed couldn’t be reopened, so the extended voting was uneven across cities.

For what it’s worth, Bolsonaro had asked for extended voting hours in areas that were impacted by heavy rains, but Lula wanted the nationwide changes.

On election night, Flávio refused to concede, and rightfully so. He accused Lula’s side of changing the rules in the middle of the game and said he would seek an annulment of the vote. …

Confirmation:

On Monday, the younger Bolsonaro was visiting his father, Jair, when, he said, federal police stopped him and asked him to surrender his ordinary and diplomatic passports. He was also told he could not leave the country.

He says the order came from none other than Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. …Moraes, of course, is the justice who oversaw the investigation and conviction of Jair Bolsonaro on coup-plotting charges after the 2022 election. He was also sanctioned by Marco Rubio in July 2025 for “serious human rights abuse.” … The Trump administration also accused him of “abusing his authority, creating a censorship complex, [and] blatantly targeting political opponents.”

Glenn Greenwald points out the obvious:

If Bolsonaro had won last night’s election and then a pro-Bolsonaro judge sent the Federal Police to seize Lula’s passport and bar him from leaving the country … every major western media outlet and liberal NGOs would be screaming about the authoritarian attack on Brazil’s elections and the destruction of basic freedoms.

The victor has the guns and courts, and writes history.

The world’s tall-poppy syndrome

The world’s tall-poppy syndrome. By Evelyn Rae at Caldron Pool.

It’s the suicidal notion that there is something uniquely evil about being “White.” We are told that our ancestors are guilty of crimes so heinous, so abhorrent that a lifetime of grovelling, and the total forfeiting of our own homelands cannot come close to atoning for the sins that we inherited from them. …

Through never-ending racial quotas and DEI programs, we are relentlessly told that the workplace, the community, the nation, indeed, the world is a better place when White people are diluted, when their power is limited, when their voice is drowned out — and increasingly, when they’re not visibly present at all. Some are already stating it openly: Fewer Whites is the goal today. No Whites is the goal tomorrow. …

 

 

[Our ancestors’] achievements belong to the world, and everyone from everywhere has a right to the civilisation they built — but their supposed crimes, they alone belong to us. So, we are told, the only thing we inherit from our ancestors is the guilt, the shame, and the debt.

And so, as a result, we are told to step aside, to stay silent, and to not question the narrative — even if it’s obviously rigged against us. And it is rigged against us. On a national level, we’re told our identity doesn’t matter because we have to prioritise the voices of ethnic minorities. On a global level, we’re told our identity doesn’t matter because we have to prioritise the voices of so-called “global majorities.”

Wherever we are, we are told that we don’t matter, we need to be silent, we need to be diluted, we need to be watered down and marginalised — and the remarkable thing is that those who openly discriminate in this sense are wholeheartedly convinced they’re morally virtuous in doing so — why? Because they have been convinced that all of the world’s problems can be traced back to White men, and especially White men in positions of power and influence.

In their minds, this is now the great evil that needs to be conquered. And so, every White man striving for power is “literally Hitler”, and any collective of White men who support that are demonised as “literal Nazis. If you want a disturbing glimpse at how widespread this dangerous mindset is, simply take a look at how people reacted to the public murder of Charlie Kirk. …

 

Who is an Australian?

We are being told that the descendants of Australia’s founding stock are unnecessary … If every Anglo-Celtic Australian were to be replaced by foreigners, the nation itself would remain the same, provided the new imports subscribed to “Aussie values.” … Consequently, under this novel definition, being Australian is no longer an ethnic designation but an ideological one….

Now, this is more than just semantics. We’re talking about the intellectual erasure of Anglo-Celtic Australians. The historic people are being gradually removed from the definition. Their identity has become a collection of transferable attributes. And their heritage has become the property of the world. Even those on the so-called “Right” have bought this redefinition. They’re too embarrassed to define us the way we have always been defined — the way every other people group on earth is permitted to define themselves. …

Reality:

At the heart of this discussion, there are two opposing mistakes.

  1. On one side are those who argue that Australia is simply a collection of propositions. Accept the approved values, and you become whatever we are.
  2. On the other side are those who argue that ethnic identity is all that matters, and that ideology or religion are inconsequential to the heritage we’ve been entrusted.

But this is not an either/or situation. The greatness of the Western world, the greatness of the British people, is not people disconnected from their faith, or values disconnected from a people. The greatness of the Western world and British people is an exceptional people embracing an exceptional faith. It is that combination that has proved to be so potent … which is why the Straight, White, Christian, Male has been marked as enemy number one.

Elon Musk is the tallest poppy of all.

We Are At The Molotov-Ribbentrop Stage

We Are At The Molotov-Ribbentrop Stage. By David Archibald.

The foreign ministers of Russia and Germany, Molotov and Ribbentrop respectively, signed their non-aggression pact on 23rd August, 1939. Germany attacked Poland a week later, with the German battleship Schleswig-Holstein opening fire on the Polish port of Westerplatte at 4.45 am on 1st September, 1939. The German excuse was that German minorities in Poland were being oppressed.

The current day equivalent of Westerplatte is the Estonian town of Narva, in the northeast corner of the country, on the border with Russia. Russia claims that the Russians in Estonia are being oppressed. There is a US tripwire force based at Camp Reedo in southern Estonia. The bulk of this force has been rotated out, with only some 100 troops remaining. The next US armoured formation is due to arrive in November 2026. If they don’t arrive, or the base is abandoned, that will be a sign of an imminent Russian invasion.

 

 

Now, how could that come about you might well ask. It seems that Putin has been reading the weird ideas of the US Undersecretary of War for Policy, Elbridge Colby, who proposes that the world should be divided into three spheres of influence: the Americas under the control of the United States, the Eurasian landmass controlled by Russia, and Asia is to be controlled by China. Mr Colby is doing his best to bring that about by white-anting NATO. He held a meeting of NATO countries, excluding the nuclear powers of Britain and France and the Baltic states, in Bergen, Norway in June 2026. This ‘Bergen group’ is due to meet again in November in Poland. No doubt they will be told to stand down when Russia invades the Baltic states. That sounds strange but there is no other explanation for such weird behaviour.

Having read Colby’s febrile geopolitics, Putin has proposed a meeting of the three Colby superpowers in Shenzhen, China, on 18th November, 2026, on the sidelines of the APEC conference. Putin expects this meeting to impose a peace settlement on Ukraine, which gives him what he wants. Russia may or may not want to invade the Baltic countries at the moment, but an invasion is necessary for the US to abandon NATO. The US has its own big, kinetic war going on with Iran. At some stage President Trump will call for NATO members to come and help out with his Iran War. When they don’t, and they won’t, that will be his excuse to abandon Europe to the Russians.

In return for this perfidy in the name of hard power realism, what do regime associates in the US hope to get in return? Zerohedge is the main channel for socially acceptable Russian propaganda, so what do its articles say? This one, entitled Five Reasons Why Trump Is More Serious Than Ever About Cutting Deals With Russia, lists things including data centres powered by cheap hydropower. The US, under Trump, is expected to trade its reputation for data centres. …

Ukraine war update:

Zelensky [replaced] the butcher General Syrsky with General Mykhailo Drapatyi in July 2026. General Drapatyi started reforms, including get rid of micromanagement.

This is where it gets interesting. Ukraine had been inflicting 30,000 to 40,000 Russian casualties per month. Ukraine adopted an aspirational target of 50,000 casualties per month. That’s the point at which Russian recruitment would fall short of casualties and Russia would have to end the war.

Ukraine, in three short months, has blown past that aspirational level. Recently there was a day of 2,500 Russian casualties which equates to 75,000 casualties per month. It seems to have settled down to about 2,000 casualties per day which is 20,000 per month higher than it was prior to General Drapatyi’s appointment.

If we assume that we could have had the higher rate of Russian casualties for the last two years, that is half a million Russian casualties and the war might have been over a year ago due to Russian exhaustion. In effect, Zelensky’s political ambition has been the second biggest killer of Ukrainian troops and civilians after Putin himself. …

What the moving finger has written above is an interpretation of events. But there is independent witness to Zelensky’s corrupt weasel character. He did try to  weaken Ukraine’s anti-corruption safeguards at one point, most notably in July 2025. His government pushed through a law that significantly reduced the independence of two key anti-corruption bodies. After substantial public protest and international pressure, Zelensky reversed course and signed legislation restoring their independence. Being corrupt in peacetime is one thing, but doing it during a war with the result of more Ukrainian deaths is vile. Vile weasel indeed. …

Elon Musk:

The Russians, and Musk himself, have called for Zelensky’s replacement. …

Elon Musk is a smart man so how can he regurgitate Russian propaganda like this?

This is the sort of idiotic Russian propaganda that Trump himself spouts, such as saying that the Russians would have won but an idiot general took the tanks off into the mud instead of straight down the highway to Kiev.

 

 

Musk was initially hyper-enthusiastic about the Trump victory, for example calling the Canadian Prime Minister ‘governor’. Then there was a brief falling out over the 2025 budget in which Trump wasn’t going to run the country as a going concern but blow it all on bread and  circuses. Now he is back in the fold and spouts amoral nonsense. But why?

It is because the Democrats have said that they will take his operations from him and jail him for life. He actually does fear for his life, at least subconsciously. As such he should be forgiven for his statements on Ukraine. Of necessity, he has nailed his colours to the mast and the mast is rotten. If the Democrats win, he would be wise to go into exile immediately. Australia should pass legislation to be able to offer him extradition-free asylum.

Are you kidding? Albanese would gleefully throw him in jail for his beliefs and accomplishments, just needs to make up an excuse.
