This sad, watching the last hurrah of the United States, so much for Pax Americana at least the Brits were able to hold it together for 300 years. In
60 years what has Pax Americana given us?
They are so confused and bedazzled by everything happening to them, they are all clutching and straws, needing ET's and conspiracies and everything
else in between, beacuse they all too lazy too get off their arses and enroll to vote and exercise their franchise, they've been bled dry by their
politico/military/industrial complex, are starting to cotton on to the fact that all their allies are deserting them like flies so sick of their
inability to self examine themselves, locked into a right wing religious dogma that views Armageddon as some divine route of salvation and if god wont
make it happen, they are prepared to get it going on their own.
You know what our Special Forces guys are capturing now in Afghanistan?, Taliban insurgents with lap tops with software purchased 'legitimately'
from SKYGRABBER designed by an American, marketed by an American orginally designed for people to cheat and crack satellite transmissions for TV, the
company modified the code and it is now used by the Taliban to view live on their lap tops the feed from their Predator drones.
Over here in Australia if you did that some guys with Federal Police badges would come in, show you a piece of paper saying 30 years, slap a D-Notice
on you so no-one can report it and give them a lecture that Treason is one of only 2 laws on the Australian statue books with a death sentence.
Over their in the United States, they call that 'free enterprise'.
How long do you think our Ausssie troops and our commanders are going to put up wiith having Predators overhead filming everything going on and
knowing the Taliban is watching everything we do?
Come join the party. We have been quitely 'playing' with the Japanese (now theres a fun language to play with, town I live in is almost bi-lingual
in sign posts)
We coaxed them out of thheir caccoon into Cambodia and said don't worry about your Constituion and the UN, we'll take care of that,
And when they offered to send non combat engineering troops to Iraq those crazy little samurai said they wont carry weapons but can we have detachment
of Australians to guard us please.
They can take care of the polar space launches and we did a memorandum of understanding to develop a space port in Cape York if in the end neither of
us can get equatorial launches from the Europeans or the Americans we have our Cape York option.
The Americans are so paranoid of the Japanese developing an Indigenous aerospace industry, and every time they try, the US applies incredible pressure
that they cannot and force feed them liscense copy F-15's etc. But I assure, if you think their modern cars are abit of gee whiz, imagine what their
aerospace engineers could do, they already have highly modified their F-15's have a self developed AWACS platform and are pumping out two baby
carriers (called of course helicopter cruisers to get around their constition banning attack carriers.
They have finally made the United States pack up and bug out of Okinawa with their forces 'retreating' to Guam.
And if you think the United States is prepared to risk a nuclear war over Taiwan?, about the only friend they have left on the Asian mainland is South
Korea, and thats a forced marriage, and Korea, like Taiwan, was once a Japanese colony.
My grandfather fought the Japanese in World War 2. 'We call it the Great Mistake" They didn't declare war on us and we never declared war on
them... ... but what the heck, a party is a party.and we had a bunch of likely lads who had just cleaned up the Italians in the Western Desert and
then sent Rommel on his merry way all keen, all volunteers and looking for a bit of quality opposition. We watched the American Units break and run in
New Guniea, gritted out teeth, cursed the lack of back bone, and sent up a hip hip hooray when your marines arrived,
a volunteer, guys we could relate to, and we love your marines, you ahve the same philosphy as ours, take the cast offs and hand me downs from the
other services and get on with the job.
I think what the Japanese liked the most that got them thinking, hey you guys have a bit of Bushido as well, was what we did with their midget
submarineers after they got into Sydney Harbour...
after extracting the bodies from the subs, contacted the Swiss consul, had him watch, and witness as we rendered them full military honours, cremated
them as per their ritual, placed the ashes in urns and gave them to the Swiss consul and asked for them to have them shipped home to Japan
www.ww2australia.gov.au...
"The bodies of the four Japanese crewmen from the midget submarines launched by I-22 and I-27 were recovered when these two midget submarines were
raised. They were cremated at Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs Crematorium with full naval honours. Rear Admiral Muirhead-Gould, in charge of Sydney Harbour
defences, along with the Swiss Consul-General and members of the press, attended the service. The admiral’s decision to accord the enemy a military
funeral was criticised by many Australians but he defended his decision to honour the submariners’ bravery."
I mean we know they got the message, but they didnt have to intepret it so literally and extend to our guys their bushido system back. Lining us up
for beheadings as 'fellow samurai' in their logic trying to spare these mens families the shame of having been captured alive.
www.ww2incolor.com... no begging for mercy like captured Americans in Iraq.
Just take it on the chin like man, or the neck in this case.
But what a crazy samurai they are, glad we have them with us this time around. same with how the Vietnamese welcome all our diggers back to visit
where we kicked their butts around the paddy fields (my father served in Vietnam)
try this one on American readers...
en.wikipedia.org... (Cowra breakout)
We had a camp full of Japanese prisoners, nearly all of them captured as wounded on the battlefield or dragged out of the sea. Nearly everyone of them
gave false names as they didn't want the shame of their capture communicated via the Red Cross and the Swiss protector to Japan to 'shame their
families'.
from wiki "At about 2 a.m. a Japanese ran to the camp gates and shouted what seemed to be a warning to the sentries. Then a Japanese bugle sounded. A
sentry fired a warning shot. More sentries fired as three mobs of prisoners, shouting "Banzai", began breaking through the wire, one mob on the
northern side, one on the western and one on the southern. They flung themselves across the wire with the help of blankets. They were armed with
knives, baseball bats, clubs studded with nails and hooks, wire stilettos and garotting cords"
"Within minutes of the start of the breakout attempt Privates Benjamin Gower Hardy and Ralph Jones (GC) manned the No. 2 Vickers machine-gun and were
firing into the first wave of escapees, but they were soon overwhelmed by the sheer weight of numbers and killed. However, Private Jones managed to
remove and conceal the gun's bolt prior to his death. This rendered the gun useless, thereby preventing the prisoners from turning it against the
guards."
"The actions of the Japanese POWs in storming machine gun posts, armed only with improvised weapons, showed what Australian Prime Minister John
Curtin later described as a "suicidal disregard of life". Nevertheless, 359 POWs escaped. Some prisoners, rather than escaping, attempted or
committed suicide, or were killed by their countrymen. Some of those who did escape committed suicide, or were killed, to avoid recapture. All those
still alive were recaptured within 10 days of the breakout.
During the breakout and subsequent rounding up of POWs, four Australian soldiers and 231 Japanese soldiers died and 108 prisoners were wounded. The
leaders of the breakout commanded their escapees not to attack Australian civilians, and none were killed or injured."
And so what do we do in Australia?, look at the wiki link, consecrate the ground, cede it to Japan an plant out a beautiful Japanese garden for their
'spirits' to wander around in, which is now a must see for many Japanese visiting our country.
Bit better than the images we know about how Americans treated the Japanese.... But then you forced them into it didn't you? and don't bloody deny
it. its common knowledge here.
What may not be common knowledge to you Americans is that prior to World War One Japan and Great Britain had a Naval Treaty, it expired just before
World War One. As the first convoy of troopships headed for the middle east in which Australians liberated Jeruslalem, Beirut and Damascus from the
Ottoman Turks (ueah we know the Middle East well, there's a little town just down the road from me called El Arish, named after where our hospital
was in now modern Israel.
A German warship raider called the Emden attacked Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean, the islands radio operator managed to get of a QQQ signal
before they wrecked the radio hut. The Only warship in the area was our cruiser HMAS Sydney which was ordered to make full steam and go after this
German nusiance whop had escaped the destruction of Von Spees South Atlantic Squadron....
So there is this troopship convoy all alone in the Indian ocean with no escort, what happens next readers?
Over the horizon steams a squadron of Japanese destroyers Rising Sun Flags flying proudly (do any of you know what the symbol of the Australian Army
is?) A Rising Sun, but made up of swords and bayonets.
And promptly assume battle screening formation around our troopships. Those sure are pretty little things says some of our officers, wonder where they
are going to re-coal their bunkers? looks like they are on a one way mission chaps, lets give those samurai bastards a wave?.
Mind you they did manage to make it to Malta in the end and quietly went about doing escort work unsung and un-noticed.
So 'how did we pull of that neat trick?" well we had just cleaned up all tthe German possesions in the Pacific. New Guniea was a german colony (have
a look at the maps fellas...whats the name of the sea north of New Guniea? the Bismarck Sea, any of you know the name of the highest mountain in New
Guniea? Mt Wilhelm (after the Kaiser). The Kiwis grabbed Tonga and the Marshalls were 'ours' too....
How about a deal you little samurai? you can havbe the Marshalls and a few others, Truk etc etc etc.
And this is in 1915, not your late US entry in 1917.
So what do you Americans go and do? #ing cut our throats at the Peace/Armistice talks and demand the Greman possesions in the Pacific we promised to
the Japanese...
The progressive pro western Japanese government is then toppled by a military coup of those who participated in WW1 and they swear never to trust
Western governments again...and set them up for a grudge match.
Mind you don't think any of you Americans would know, which troops in the Occupation Force of Japan were assigned to guard the Emperors Palace? all
do I have to show you the photos of Australians with their Rising Sun collar badges in full cerimonial dress arrayed around the Imperial Palace to
keep insensitive tourists away.
Mind you I think they thought we got a bit too cheeky during the Tokyo Olympics when our Golden Girl Dawn Fraser did her little stunt... ... but they
know its was all done in good spirits
en.wikipedia.org... (Dawn Fraser)
from wiki "Dawn Fraser AO, MBE (born 4 September 1937) is an Australian champion swimmer. She is one of only two swimmers to win the same Olympic
event three times, in her case, the 100 meters freestyle.
Within Australia, she is known for her controversial behaviour and larrikin character as much as for her athletic ability"
"During the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Fraser angered swimming team sponsors and the Australian Swimming Union (ASU) by marching in the opening
ceremony against their wishes, wearing an older swimming costume because it was more comfortable than the one supplied by the sponsors. She also stole
an Olympic flag from a flagpole outside Emperor Hirohito's palace.[3] She was arrested but released without charge. The Emperor gave her the flag as
a souvenir. However, the Australian Swimming Union suspended her for 10 years. They repented a few months before the 1968 Games but by then it was too
late for Fraser, at 31, to prepare.
She would later deny swimming the moat to steal the flag, telling The Times in 1991: "There's no way I would have swum that moat. I was terrified of
dirty water and that moat was filthy. There's no way I'd have dipped my toe in it."
Any of you know what a "Belt of a Thousand Stitches" is... ... ...
I can give you directions to a nice sort of semi-private museum with one and another captured Rising Sun flag. Its in Sydney, but only the inititates
know, 'taken from the body of a Japanese general' The Emperor would pay a small fortune to have that item come home if he could find it.
It was a ceremonial belt, with 1000 stitches, each stitch sewn by a single virgin and presented to the wearer to carry into battle the hopes and loves
of a thousand virgins. It was wrapped round and round the warriors body and said to make him magical... ...
Even our National War memorial would like to get its hands on this little beauty... and I am prepared to give directions to a small private musem,
cared for by some now growing old and weary war vets for them to examine if you dont believe me...
en.wikipedia.org... A Senninbari (千人針, thousand-person-stitches)
Come on, can't any of you play Scrabble?
I guess if we really did have ET's down here they probably came because they know we have been roping in 'loot' into this island continent since
day one, must be our convict taint huh? and our absolutel despir at watching the Europeans destroy everything over and over again.
Maybe we should just annex our desert interior to the United Nations and whenever the rest of the world feeels the need to engage in another great
human cull, you can all fly in here and do it in our vacant deserts and we can all jet out and wander about all over your countries admiring your
museums, art galleries and other amusing places.
How many copies of the Magna Carta you have floating out there in the world?
"n 1952 the Australian Government purchased a 1297 copy of Magna Carta for £12,500 from King's School, Bruton, England.[100] This copy is now on
display in the Members' Hall of Parliament House, Canberra. In January 2006, it was announced by the Department of Parliamentary Services that the
document had been revalued down from A$40m to A$15m."
en.wikipedia.org...
Of course the Americans saw their copy as nothing more than a piece of treasure to be auctioned about the place. Thank god Ross Perot at least got his
hand on it briefly....
"Only one copy (a 1297 copy with the royal seal of Edward I) is in private hands; it was held by the Brudenell family, earls of Cardigan, who had
owned it for five centuries, before being sold to the Perot Foundation in 1984. This copy, having been on long-term loan to the US National Archives,
was auctioned at Sotheby's New York on 18 December 2007; The Perot Foundation sold it in order to "have funds available for medical research, for
improving public education and for assisting wounded soldiers and their families."[101] It fetched US$21.3 million,[102] It was bought by David
Rubenstein of The Carlyle Group,[103] who after the auction said, "I thought it was very important that the Magna Carta stay in the United States and
I was concerned that the only copy in the United States might escape as a result of this auction." Rubenstein's copy is on permanent loan to the
National Archives in Washington, D.C..[104]"
You'd probably sell your original constitution (if it hasn't already and been replaced with a fake) to pay off your triliions and trillions of debt.
