History never retreats : Comments

By Mervyn Bendle, published 27/7/2006

Identity - personal, national, cultural and religious - is one of the key dynamics shaping global politics, and our identity arises from our history.

What is remarkable is that so many people are historians and claiming to know so much when in reality they may not just know very little but more over have their perceptions on FICTION rather then REALITY.

I would be the first to admit that I never had any formal education in the English language, legal studies, history etc, as I was born in a non English speaking country. That is why I can write books as I do such as my 6-7-2006 publication;

INSPECTOR-RIKATI® & What is the -Australian way of life- really?
A book on CD on Australians political, religious & other rights
ISBN 0-9751760-2-1

That sets out the FACTS from FICTION.

Constitutionally Aboriginals were considered to be equal as any other so called white person but the 1967 conjob referendum wrecked that.

This book was also used in my SUCCESSFUL appeals before the County Court of Victoria on 19 July 2006 against the 2005 convictions for FAILING TO VOTE, in the 2001 and 2004 purported-federal-elections where all the writs for the 2001 purported-federal-election were all defective, hence there was no valid election but a FICTITIOUS election, and in regard of the 2004 purported-federal-election there was no constitutional powers to make voting compulsory in view that the 1915 proposed referendum never was held to give such legislative power to the Commonwealth. Also that we all are and remain British nationals, by birth or naturalization, because the application of the Constitution cannot be changed but by referendum!
Perhaps we should be trying to get historians who do understand REALITY and then we might even realize that we conned the Aboriginals with the 1967 referendum and stripped them of their equality!

Keep in mind I litigated those issues and won in Court! As such I am not merely claiming some historical knowledge but have proven my credentials in Court and succeeded in my appeal!

Aboriginals should be treated equally in all respects as any other Australian.
By the way the meaning of “Australian” is because of residing in the continent Australia, nothing to do with federation!

Jeez Mercurius

I have never would have thought that a nihilistic void would be liberating.

Humans search for meaning in their lives - identity and culture and history give them meaning.

If world war 3 breaks out and the line is drawn in the sand your true friends will be the ones standing on your side of the line and it wont be some of these people and nations that the academics and left wingers are so quick to defend at the expense of their own countrymen.

"If world war 3 breaks out and the line is drawn in the sand your true friends will be the ones standing on your side of the line and it wont be some of these people and nations that the academics and left wingers are so quick to defend at the expense of their own countrymen."

Let me start by saying I'm not pro-left wing. However, to characterise anyone who doesn't toe the official government/conservative line as a traitor is just disingenuous bollocks of the sort the left wing are accused of. Elements of both the left and the right regularly practise this "with us or against us" nonsense and it doesn't actually help any debate.

While I'm at it, even ignoring the fact that WW3 might very well break out because the chicken hawks on the right go around sticking their noses in everyone else's business, are those same chickenhawks going to stand and defend anything? Those in the U.S. crowing loudest for war were the same people who somehow managed to find a way out of fighting in Vietnam. Likewise, where was Bush when the planes hit the World Trade Center? He was on a plane to the other side of the country. It kind of reminds me of the line by the general in Blackadder about being right behind the soldiers, to which Blackadder replies something like, "yes, about thirty miles I should imagine."
