Free speech under threat: a case study in double standards : Comments

By Graham Preston, published 25/9/2014

What would you think if police were to arrest a person who was peacefully standing on a public footpath in Australia while holding a sign quoting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights?

We don't have freedom of speech as long as telling the truth is an offense & can cost you your job.

The right to free speech is not impeded by the requirement for religious fundamentalists to protest at least 150m from termination clinics, however, their ability to harass people trying to exercise their rights to choice is.

[OT: but he started it]

Are you still on about that, Arjay?

>>I think ISIS is just another false flag event like 911. http://ae911truth.org/<<

When will you learn?

One of the more fascinating recent contributions to your 9/11 fiction, is from an Australian fiction writer called Dee McLachlan. She has taken the trouble to post a film of a collapsing building that has been demolished using explosives.

"This is what a building collapse looks like. Even though the pillars of the building have been skillfully severed by explosives – everything of weight is going downwards."

She contrasts this with a film of one of the WTC buildings going down. The two examples have absolutely nothing in common - that is, the profile of the collapse in each case is very markedly different.

Amazingly, her conclusion is: "This building has been BLOWN UP – with sophisticated explosives."

Any sane person would think, given her claims that both buildings were blown up with skilfully-placed explosives, the patterns should be identical? Or at least, vaguely similar in some way?

The lack of any logic has never been an impediment to the conspiracy brigade though, has it Arjay. As with your lastest suggestion that ISIS is somehow a CIA conspiracy.

Still crazy, after all these years.

Pericles Dr Paul Craig Roberts ( ex -assistant secretary to the US Treasury) says ISIS is a creation of Washington. He has far more credibility than yourself.

Arjay an excellent article, it is interesting that we never ever get articles written by this very learned man in our daily papers, but then that is not what they want us to read, they lie and keep the real truth under wraps and from its readers.

Pericles,

I worked for a time in the sixties in a mental hospital, at Ballarat. Since then, such institutions have been wound down or closed altogether and the inmates are now allowed to wander the streets and live in the 'community', as long as they take their medication.

To our mutual regret and aggravation, some have been able to master the Internet, but it seems, not their medication timetable.

Best wishes,

Joe
