Falsehoods of the ABC - coming from a Right-Wing source?
How unusual.

The "truth" from Rupert Murdoch's Sky News Australia
is to be expected. Media bias/Fact-check may list its-
failed fact checks, unproven claims,
the promotion of conspiracy theories and
misinformation. What do they know? Andrew Bolt, et al,
rule here.

As Billy Graham once stated :

Right-Wing, Left-Wing?
I prefer the whole bird!

Dear mhaze,

Well that was a lot of blather.

Pretty simple really.

You diverted this into a semantic discussion on the word unilateral. You made a big deal of me saying Howard acted unilaterally, even posting a cute little video to boot.

But he did act unilaterally, the Chief Minister of the NT who you had falsely claimed had given unwavering support even spelt it out for you. Yet you are still trying to run the line.

Give it away boyo.

Thank you Josephus. Very interesting. Aside from those defamed and all the fraud it exposed, Andrew Bolt made the point that to be a successful hunter gatherer you still needed to be an intelligent and capable human being, especially in as harsh an environment as can be presented in Australia.

Perhaps what some here don't want to acknowledge is that sophistication might have had something to offer those hunter gatherers.

SR,

You got caught with your pants down. The decision was clearly bipartisan which is clearly not unilateral.

It is not just semantics.

Dear Foxy,

I did re-read what you wrote and note that you have fallen hook line and sinker for the fantasy of a fraudster, starting with your affirmation of Aries' comment. As Carl Sagan also remarked, having an open mind is good as long as it isn't so open that your brain falls out.

I agree with Steele, the intervention was a unilateral decision of Howard's, he did not seek or obtain support from others, before applying his scatter gun method to a perceived problem in the NT.
