Political Interference while our Troops are Overseas

Ralph Blewitt's RAR mates from Afghanistan being investigated for calling in support

In a democracy, the glare of publicity is often the best way to protect our freedoms.

There is nothing wrong with making a phone call to support a mate.
During the week, Ralph Blewitt received just such a phone call from serving members of the RAR brotherhood who are currently deployed overseas.
I've been corresponding with a US serviceman who has contacts in Australia.  
Here's his very disquieting note today

Remember 1812 said:                           
                                Good Evening. I posted here a few days hence (Remember 1812) after speaking with an old Aussie friend from your Military about your current National Leader Ms Gillard. I'm a serving member of the US Military, so I hope you realize that I am not in any way promoting 'revolution' against a foreign Government or its People, which the UCMJ very correctly frowns upon. Federal Prisons are quite damp places. What prompts me to write before I draw the fire and go to bed, is:  My friend is pay rate O5 in your Military and I have never heard him so concerned at anything before - laid back is a damned good description. He is almost 'frightened' if that is  the correct term. He is saying that he cant comment publicly but that the Aust Govt is conducting a secure inquiry at high level into the calls from your troops that Mr. Blewitt is said to have received. This is a definite concern to all free people and you deserve a heads up in his opinion. Anyway, he asked me to let you know - don't know why my career is less important than his (smile) - the way it is with friends I guess. I was a young kid at Watergate time but I understand the power of Govt. Maybe your PM is following Richard Nixon - he of the "I am not a crook" variety.  I mentioned this to my friend only I said 'Dick" not the President...after a short bout of hilarity he pointed out my error. Really? Well Oooorah! Do with this whatever you will - deletion sounds good. I hope all goes well for you and I will keep reading your Blog - not bad wordsmithing for a 'grunt'. Just mail me an 'ack' to let us know you received this please. PS: Thank you for your kind words in your email. It is BTW a secure mailer - no records kept, those damned Brits still have spies about in the Great State of Georgia, even after 200 years - (grin
As you can see my correspondent and I have had some email communication as well.
I hope that the servicemen who phoned Ralph are not being investigated.   If they are, I hope this publicity causes those enquiries to stop.   If it doesn't, we should all be very concerned.

CRISITUNITY

Well, my time at the NSW Police Force as an IT Support Officer has finished. It's a shame to see what's happening there. The bean-counters have cut some really skilled people, simply to "save money", a false economy really, as the jobs will still need to be attended to. On the bright side I think I'm gonna like my new boss, I'm going to be working for myself! So if you're within cooee of Bathurst NSW Australia, and need a skilled, qualified, and friendly IT guy on a short term, temporary, or single-use basis, I'm your guy. The Chinese have the same word for crisis and opportunity. I don't know how they pronounce it, but in Engrish, it's CRISITUNITY!

After the Rapture

  After the Rapture Purpose of this Document: While the western view of Prophecy is prediction and fulfillment, there is an additional view of prophecy you might call ‘typological’ prophecy. The idea here is that in History, God maintains an orderly way of dealing with mankind, what is in view here is the typological ‘Period of Testing’ endured by the Nation of Israel at the time of the Exodus, again following the Crucifixion of Christ, and may again endure following the rapture of the Church. Also in this document we’ll look at what the Tribulation Church will look like, how it will become strong and fearless in the face of a hostile world. There are concepts contained in this document that require a prior knowledge of Biblical concepts – for example Tribulation, Rapture, Jubilees, prophetic images of Daniel and Revelation etc. We will also look at when the window for the Rapture opens, and potentially, when it closes . Period of ‘Testing’ – Building a strong Ch...

125 Climate Scientist URGE U.N.

-
OPEN CLIMATE LETTER TO UN SECRETARY-GENERAL: Current scientific knowledge does not substantiate Ban Ki-Moon assertions on weather and climate, say 125-plus scientists. "The U.K. Met Office recently released data showing that there has been no statistically significant global warming for almost 16 years. During this period, according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations rose by nearly 9% to now constitute 0.039% of the atmosphere. Global warming that has not occurred cannot have caused the extreme weather of the past few years. Whether, when and how atmospheric warming will resume is unknown. The science is unclear. Some scientists point out that near-term natural cooling, linked to variations in solar output, is also a distinct possibility." "The incidence and severity of extreme weather has not increased. There is little evidence that dangerous weather-related events will occur more often in the futu...
