Australia’s Finest laid to rest, Lance Corporal Jared MacKinney’s wife gives birth hours after Funeral of her Husband
"We have lost a remarkable soldier and an honourable Australian,"
Digger's widow gives birth
The Daily Telegraph
September 10, 2010 7:03PM
THE widow of the latest soldier to be killed in Afghanistan has given birth to his son just hours after his funeral.
Lance Corporal Jared MacKinney, 28, was killed in late August, during an intense three-hour battle with Taliban insurgents in the western part of Afghanistan's Oruzgan province.
Prime Minister Julia Gillard, Opposition Leader Tony Abbott and defence chief Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston were among those gathered for the military funeral at Ashgrove Baptist Church in inner western Brisbane.
LCpl MacKinney's casket was carried, in heavy rain, from the church through an honour guard drawn from his unit, the 6th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (6RAR).
His widow Beckie among those paying tribute to him. Hours later, she was giving birth to his son. Noah Jared MacKinney was born at 3.10pm (AEST) today - two weeks early.
In a statement released before the service, Beckie Mackinney said Noah would learn all about her dad's life.
"The long journey without Jared has begun for Annabell and me, and soon also little Noah Jared, who is due to come into the world in a fortnight," she said. "Noah will never get to meet his father but he'll come to know him for the incredible man he was through our love and memories.
"We have reached the deepest depths of despair since we were told of Jared's death but we have also been helped and comforted by the support and extraordinary generosity of spirit of old friends, new friends and strangers who cared."
His father-in-law, senior police officer David Smallbone, paid tribute to a "wonderful, loving husband".
"We all remember Jared's great sense of humour and cheeky grin, but his entire face would smile at the thought of Beckie and his princess Annabell, as well as the impending arrival of his little man," Mr Smallbone told about 700 mourners as rain fell outside the Ashgrove Baptist Church.
Ms Mackinney also paid tribute to her husband's mates in Afghanistan and at home. "I want to thank you for your caring and incredible messages of support," she said. "I know Jared wants me to tell you that we are very proud of you and support you in the job that you are doing."
Commander of the 7th Brigade, Brigadier Paul McLachlan, also paid a heartfelt tribute to Lance Corporal MacKinney who "was never afraid to let his humanitarian side shine through".
"We have lost a remarkable soldier and an honourable Australian," Brigadier McLachlan said at the funeral service. "I reckon he could have run for mayor of Gallipoli Barracks (in Enoggera, Brisbane) and won in a canter."
At the conclusion of the service soldiers fired three blank volleys.
Australia it’s time to help AUSTRALIANS FOR A CHANGE!!!!
Forget the Socialist spin from the Gillard Federal Government and their professional Bleeding Hearts
with their United Nations inspired guilt trip,Australia and the West has NOTHING to be ashamed of,
its time to ensure AUSTRALIANS are looked after and NOT those who BOAST that they are sworn to KILL us.
Australia, Australia, Australia !!!!! Legacy,Legacy,Legacy!!!!!!
Australia “a scary place” indeed. Enter the Socialist Photo Police
Paul Hogan’s wife,Linda Kozlowski,upon her return to Los Angeles recently without her husband (who was been held without charge in Australia by the Taxation Office) Paul Crocodile Dundee,described Australia as a “scary place”
She is not wrong, Australia, after under three years of Federal Union Financed Labor Socialist Government (ALP) is indeed a “scary place”. The Lunatics are now in charge of the Union Financed Socialist Labor Party Government, so much so that Australians and indeed Tourists must pay to take photographs and video footage of Australian icons and landscapes.
The precedent for this outrage was set back in the eighties when the Hawke Labor Government gave its blessing to the Aboriginal community of Ayres Rock to charge visitors who used tripods on their camera’s to take pictures of Ayres Rock from a distance of one mile away.The reason given then was because of “cultural sensitivities” now in 2010 the same people are demanding that no one, other than Aboriginals be allowed to climb Ayres Rock, in the name of “cultural sensitivity”
What about the Labor Socialist Australian Government just come clean and advise tourists that Ayres Rock is SHUT due to “cultural sensitivities” and that better they just search the internet for a picture of it and save themselves the expense of travelling half way around the world to pay to photograph it,in fact the entire Nation is shut for business that way the Socialist lefty select few will be left alone to enjoy what they seem to think belongs to them, unhindered by those terrible overseas tourist and non indigenous types that keep messing up the view in what they regard as their out back,their Opera House and any other part of Australia they want to SELL tourists and Australian citizens the right to photograph or video.
Australia is indeed becoming “a scary place” However if you want to come here and defile any part of the Christian Religion or its icons, come on down!!!!! anything goes here but just don’t say anything against Islam the Politicians don’t want to offend their financiers.

Rodney Pople's art is erotic, exotic and designed to shock
Elizabeth Fortescue From:
The Daily Telegraph
September 10, 2010 12:00AM
The works by Sydney artist Rodney Pople go on exhibition in Paddington next week with a warning on the gallery's door they "may offend".
Pople's exhibition, titled Bellini 21c, includes a work called Altarpiece in which the figures in the famous Bellini altarpiece in Venice are obscured by an image of a woman being penetrated from behind and having oral sex.
Another work features the altarpiece with a photograph of a woman exposing her genitals.
Pople photographed the altar piece last year, then used digital technology to add pornography taken from magazines found by his wife, curator Felicity Fenner.
He made large photo prints of the hybrid image, and added oil paint.
What do you think of Pople's works? Tell us below
The artworks - top price $65,000 for a painting titled Bellini Altarpiece (triptych) - are operatically beautiful but deeply unsettling.
Pople admits the works were deliberately provocative, but said he wanted to highlight moral corruption within Western civilisation's established "hierarchies", not just the church but politics and business.
The porn star represented a "contemporary version" of the Madonna, representing society's degradation.
"My paintings challenge the facade of our politically correct society by hinting, with an unabashed use of fiction and exaggeration, what might lie beneath the surface."
Australian Galleries, where the exhibition opens on Tuesday, took legal advice and posted the warning sign.
"We just don't want a Bill Henson situation," gallery director Stuart Purves said, referring to Bill Henson's 2008 images of naked adolescents.
No calls from Australian or world leaders accusing the artist of gross insensitivity that could lead to Christians rioting in the streets committing acts of terrorism,no these are Christian icons,and as we all know Christianity is fair game for any and all to desecrate at will in the name of ART.
How lucky the world and these “artists” are, that Christianity really is a “ Religion of Peace”

U.S. military says Afghan bibles have been destroyed
KABUL
Reuters
Tue May 5, 2009 4:15pm IST
(Reuters) - Bibles in Afghan languages sent to a U.S. soldier at a base in Afghanistan were confiscated and destroyed to ensure that troops did not breach regulations which forbid proselytising, a military spokeswoman said.
The U.S. military has denied its soldiers tried to convert Afghans to Christianity, after Qatar-based Al Jazeera television showed soldiers at a bible class on a base with a stack of bibles translated into the local Pashto and Dari languages.
U.S. Central Command's General Order Number 1 forbids troops on active duty -- including all those based in Iraq and Afghanistan -- from trying to convert people to another religion.
"I can now confirm that the Bibles shown on Al Jazeera's clip were, in fact, collected by the chaplains and later destroyed. They were never distributed," spokeswoman Major Jennifer Willis said at Bagram air base, north of Kabul.
Military officials have said the bibles were sent through private mail to an evangelical Christian soldier by his church back home. The soldier brought them to the bible study class where they were filmed.
Trying to convert Muslims to another faith is a crime in Afghanistan. An Afghan man who converted to Christianity was sentenced to death for apostasy in 2006 but was allowed to leave the country after an international uproar.
"It certainly is, from the United States military's perspective, not our position to ever push any specific kind of religion, period," chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen told a Pentagon briefing on Monday.

Australia prepares for WAR with China.
Whilst we were sleeping......and been entertained by Australia’s “three Amigo” “independent” “conservative” recently re elected members of Parliament as they swagger before any and all TV and press cameras, dribbling their latest contrived collective pearls of wisdom, desperately hanging onto their 15 minutes of fame afforded them by a minority of Australian voters who after two and half years of Socialist rule are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.
Australia prepares for WAR.
Australia’s armed services and our allies prepare for another "Battle of the Pacific" this time our enemy is China,how difficult will this war be to fight when we have the most Beijing centric government in Australia's history,former Union financed, Labor Party Australian Prime Minister, Lu Kewen aka. Kevin 07 and indeed his immediate family are up to their ears in all things China, along with many other members of the present Labor government, they have reaped the rewards of been good friends and advocates of the Chinese Communist Party.
How can a Labor government act for two masters ? one been the Australian People the other been their Beijing based ideological soul mates and Labor Party Head Office party officials, the Chinese Communist Party.
Following a Labor Party faction coup d'etat, Lu Kewen, aka. Kevin 07 was deposed some two months ago,following a visit to Australia by the # 2 ranking Chinese Communist Party official.
His deputy, Madame Gillard, was elected unopposed by party members "in a show of spontaneous support " as they say, by Labor Party members.
Madame Gillard some time later called a federal election which was held on the 21st August, the result of which is still unknown at at 6 9 2010.
A Fabian Socialist,Madame Gillard has formed a coalition with the radical Marxist Communist Green's Party leader Bob Brown, to form a minority government that they hope will convince three alleged conservative “independents” to give Madame Gillard and Comrade Brown government.

Islamic Sociopaths Inc. aka. the Religion of Peace, Feiz Mohammad , Geert Wilders Video’s
Aussie cleric Feiz Mohammad calls for beheading of Dutch MP Geert Wilders
Daily Telegraph
September 03, 2010 11:37PM
DUTCH anti-Islam MP Geert Wilders, the country's most heavily guarded politician, has denounced an Australian Muslim cleric's reported call for his beheading for denigrating Islam.
"This is really terrible news and a very serious threat, unfortunately," the firebrand politician told AFP by email in response to the threat reported in the popular Dutch daily De Telegraaf.
Wilders, who campaigns for an end to Muslim immigration and a ban on the building of new mosques and the Koran in a bid to end the "Islamisation" of the Netherlands, has been under 24-hour protection since 2004.
According to De Telegraaf, Sydney-born Muslim cleric Feiz Mohammad called on extremists in an internet chatroom to "chop off his head" and accused Wilders of "denigrating" Islam.
An interview with Wilders recorded in June was aired by SBS TV in Australia on Sunday. He called Islamic culture retarded and violent.
Mohammad, as the head the Global Islamic Youth Centre in the Sydney southwest suburb of Liverpool in 2005, gained notoriety for a speech at the Bankstown Town Hall in March of that year in which he told the audience a rape victim has "no-one to blame but herself".
Women teased men and appealed to their "carnal nature" by the way they dressed in "nothing but satanic skirts", the imam told the crowd.
Pious Muslims in London, spreading the word of the “Religion of Peace & Tolerance”.
In 2007, he was named by national security sources as one of at least 10 hardliners who were preaching fundamentalist messages in Australia, propagating a Wahabi ideology espoused by al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
In the same year, Mohammad, who was believed to be living in the Middle East, came to the attention of Australia's attorneys-general when his lectures were included in a box set of DVDs which urged young Muslims to kill non-believers.
The Dutch intelligence service, AIVD, which is understood to have a copy of his latest speech, said Mohammad is considered on a par with US Muslim preacher Anwar al-Awlaki, who is seen as the brains behind a failed attack on a plane flying over Detroit.
Wilders told De Telegraaf, which published a recording of the speech on its website, that he is shocked by the death threat.
The newspaper claims to have a sound recording of the appeal by Mohammad, who it said had links with terrorists and was influential for Western Muslims.
Wilders' Party for Freedom wants to restrict immigration from Islamic countries and considers Islam a violent ideology rather than a religion.
It is currently involved in protracted negotiations to support a minority centre-right government of free-market liberals and Christian Democrats.
Wilders said he would seek "clarification from the Dutch Minister of Interior/ Justice why the secret service and anti-terrorism unit NCTB have not informed me" of the reported threat, and "what the consequences will be for me".
"The information that has come to the fore will be included in the threat analysis for Mr Wilders," said NCTB spokeswoman Judith Sluiter, who added: "We had contact with Mr Wilders last night. We have permanent contact."
Dutch authorities would not confirm the threat or elaborate on possible steps to be taken.
Barred from entering Britain last year to stop him spreading "hatred", Wilders is known abroad for his 17-minute anti-Islam commentary, "Fitna", which was termed "offensively anti-Islamic" by United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.
His Party for Freedom came third in June 9 national elections, nearly tripling its number of parliamentary seats to 24.
Wilders is set to go on trial in the Netherlands in October on charges of inciting racial hatred against Muslims.

Death To Israel!!!!! Death to America!!!!!! Nothing to see here!!! remember Islam is a “Religion of Peace”
Israel 'can be removed from the world', says Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Daily Telegraph
September 03, 2010 10:44PM
"If the leaders of the region do not have the guts, then the people of the region are capable of removing the Zionist regime from the world scene," he said as the crowd chanted "Death to America! Death to Israel!"
Mr Ahmadinejad said that direct peace talks, which Western-backed Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas relaunched with Israel in Washington on Thursday after a 20-month hiatus, were "doomed" to fail.
"What do they want to negotiate about? Who are they representing? What are they going to talk about?" the Iranian President asked of the Palestinian leadership.
"Who gave them the right to sell piece of Palestinian land? The people of Palestine and the people of the region will not allow them to sell even an inch of Palestinian soil to the enemy.The negotiations are stillborn and doomed."
Iran is implacably opposed to the new peace talks and has given strong support to the Islamist Hamas movement, which controls Gaza and which carried out two shooting attacks against Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank in the run-up to their relaunch that killed four and wounded two.

Burn a Koran ? find out why we should.
10 Reasons to Burn a Koran: Islam is the new Nazism
Posted: Sun, 22 Aug 2010 20:26:56 +0000
On 9/11/10 we are burning Korans to raise awareness and warn. In a sense it is neither an act of love nor of hate. We see, as we state in the Ten Reasons below, that Islam is a danger. We are using this act to warn about the teaching and ideology of Islam, which we do hate as it is hateful. We do not hate any people, however. We love, as God loves, all the people in the world and we want them to come to a knowledge of the truth. To warn of danger and harm is a loving act. God is love and truth. If you know the truth it can set you free.
Thanks to Terri.

Reply to Mr “Anonymous” Updated
Reply to Mr. “Anonymous” comment to my post Australia: SAS Trooper Jared Brown
"My brother in law who is a psychiatrist..."
Well I bet that saves you a lot of money, does he give you a family discount ? He Damn well better!!!!
Mr. "Anonymous" you sound very much like another Sociopath that writes to me from time to time.
I assume your brother in-law has you medicated.
I note that you, Mr. "Anonymous", also share the other Sociopaths rather unhealthy preoccupation with Paedophilia, has your brother in law been able to assist you with that aspect of your condition?
Experts the world over have concluded that Paedophilia is untreatable and has an almost 100% recidivism rate, but you already know that don't you Mr. "Anonymous"? your demons are not kind to you,and even less kind to your victims.
The other Sociopath once said to me "I can see where you come from now, difference is I am on the inside and you are on the outside. It will catch up with you,Bank on it Sunshine " Is that where you are Mr.. "Anonymous" "on the inside " ? a jail or Lunatic Asylum? perhaps chained to a gate somewhere barking obscenities at passersby chanting the Labor Party’s Communist Manifesto backwards in random order ? is that where you are Mr. “Anonymous” ?
The other Sociopath, also exhibits what the Progressives and the Left describe as Homophobia, (trust the Progressives for inventing a word like that to proscribe a "condition" to people who find the practice of a man shoving his dick up another man's arse hole repulsive) he too is constantly referring to male homosexual acts, with a clear preference for oral sex in his correspondence with me on my YouTube site,a very tortured and many would say,very sad character indeed, in fact if I did not know better, I would think that you, Mr. "Anonymous" and the other Sociopath were the same person.
May I remind you of the, most disturbing, and indeed infamous case of Eddy Bennson, Eddy too was a sad,and tragic case, the Science of Psychiatry has still to this day, not been able to purge itself of its collective guilt following the tragedy that was the “Bennson case”, as a matter of interest, you may not be aware that Bennson's primary treating psychiatrist,Prof.Emile Shaefhousens has still not been located, although he does submit various papers to Universities' around the world.
I once met Shaefhousens in Sydney, I was on a lecture tour, he pestered the organizers for weeks before the event for a just few minutes with us at our table,I have to tell you after he left the consensus was that he, was, well to be quiet blunt about it, crazy as a cut snake, poor Eddy, he and his family were not to know, if only we had of raised a red flag back then instead of.. well, just doing nothing.
I have wondered off the track,anyhow don’t be alarmed simply follow your brother in law’s medication instructions and you should at least be able to stay out of Jail if nothing else THIS time, remember when your “brain hurts” deep breaths,lay down, wherever you are, close eyes and think “Happy” and ask for assistance from whoever is passing by even if you are alone in the middle of the Simpson Desert, well someone is bound to come along sometime.. maybe.
I like to leave my ANV “Special People” commenter’s with a smile on their face, so smile away you big Goofy nut case you!!! can you pick which one you are ? Enjoy!!!

Australia: Australian Affirmative Action appointee and Socialist TRASH to prosecute Australian Soldiers.
Diggers face likely charges on child deaths
SMH
Rafael Epstein, Tom Hyland and Dan Oakes
August 27, 2010
THE Director of Military Prosecutions wants to take the unprecedented step of charging several Defence Force commandos with the deaths of five children during a raid in Afghanistan last year.
While the Director of Military Prosecutions, Brigadier Lyn McDade, has not made her final decision, the prospect of charges has infuriated senior officers, with the Chief of Army, Lieutenant-General Ken Gillespie, and other commanders expressing concern in writing.
Some in the Defence hierarchy are concerned it will further erode public support for the war and undermine the way soldiers operate in Afghanistan.
None of the military historians contacted for this report could recall Australian soldiers being charged over the deaths of civilians in the confusion of battle.
Of about 30 personnel involved in the raid, only a few appear certain to face a court martial, including two soldiers who engaged in the attack, one of whom is alleged to have thrown a grenade. Both are reservists in the 1st Commando Regiment.
Evidence would be heard by a court-martial panel made up of military professionals.
The officers in charge on the night of the raid, who are full-time ADF members, face possible charges over their preparation and supervision, and would also face a court martial.
Defence sources say the prosecution could undermine the operational effectiveness of the Special Operations Task Group in Afghanistan. ''This is not good news for us as a collective,'' a Defence source said. ''It's a hard enough job as it is, fighting with 20 [legal] ropes around your hands.''
Some of those involved in the raid first heard about the prospective charges last month, and many are dismayed the process has taken so long. Brigadier McDade has been assessing evidence since November.
The troops were on a ''capture or kill'' mission targeting an insurgent leader near the village of Surkh Morghab in Oruzgan province. A small group of the soldiers exchanged fire with an Afghan man who died, and grenades were thrown that resulted in the deaths of a teenager, two younger children and two babies. Other women and children were wounded.
Brigadier McDade has advised senior commanders of her intentions. Lawyers from Defence and other government departments are assessing the ramifications of the likely courts martial. Brigadier McDade will review submissions and any likely defence arguments before finalising her decision.
Defence and legal sources say Brigadier McDade's final decision is highly unlikely to change. Sources say she has maintained her independence through an unprecedented process.
With significant frustration over the delay in announcing the charges, some commandos feel unfairly targeted by an investigation that has exposed long-standing rivalry between full-time and reserve soldiers.
A senior member of the regiment, who served on the rotation, defended those involved.
''If the ADF bothers to describe the events in the compound in detail, it will be clear to any person that the troops, faced with a terrible situation, had no choice,'' the soldier said.
''That they all came out alive is actually an indication of their skill and courage.''
But those close to the investigation say the Australians had overwhelming force and the evidence gathered is sufficient to warrant charges.
Night raids have been a significant source of friction between coalition commanders and the Afghan government, with Afghan politicians often pushing for more investigation of soldiers involved in civilian deaths.
But Australian officers are angry, with one Defence source saying: ''Every time a bloke goes into a compound, he'll be thinking, 'F---, am I going to be charged with murder?'''
Another source said: ''It will undermine the whole system of war because at the back of every soldier's mind, they'll be thinking, 'If I f--- up, will I get charged?'''
Military sources are adamant the soldiers did nothing wrong, and some familiar with the evidence believe it is not conclusive enough to secure a conviction.
One Defence observer familiar with coalition operations in Afghanistan said: ''If you look at the range of incidents across Iraq and Afghanistan every day, on the magnitude of negligence or tragedy, this is so far down the scale it's not funny.''
Commentators believe any possible court martial would offer the soldiers a fairer hearing than the recently proposed military court, because service members would be tried by their peers.
Madame Gillard and her fellow Emilys List members and groupies can blather / dribble all the platitudes and cliche's they want about "her Labor Party" supporting OUR Australian Troops in Afghanistan, Australians again, have seen through her and her co conspirators,the Australian Labor Party (ALP)and their bankers and financiers, the Australian Council of Trade Unions( ACTU)
Gone are the days these rabid Anti Australian Socialist UN spawned Hyena's can be seen locked in arms with every drug fucked professional "student" fruit loop, school teacher,Pommie and "Multicultural" Union shop steward they can enlist into their "Peace Army" Goose Stepping their way down Sydney's George Street, performing their perverted street theater, painted faces and juggling clowns on stilts all for their adoring main stream media fan club and THEIR ABC.
No, not today these Socialist ALP, ACTU funded vermin are in charge ,and all they have to do is SAY they support our Troops then simply charge OUR Troops with criminal offences when they do what they are paid to do, hey thats gotta give the Islamists a lot of cheer, knowing that the Australians are likely to face criminal charges for hunting them down, Poor old Vinegar Tits, "Roger Vadim made me have Lesbian affairs" Hanoi Jane, and our most vile Australian citizens Whitlam and Cairns could only dream of such a weapon to be used against US and Australian forces in Vietnam.
Madame Gillard and her Anti Australian Socialist Trash have such a weapon, to use any time they want to,to remind OUR Troops who they want to win the war in Afghanistan.
Using any ALP "affirmative action" appointee Lawyer, such as Brigadier Lyn McDade who the sister hood deems needs a notch or two on her Emilys List funded career belt, I am sure she is already rehearsing her lines "You Can't handle the truth " just wont be the same after she and her cabal of politically correct desk jockeys are through with it trying to nail one of OUR Soldiers arse to the wall for fighting a war.
Now that the “appropriately” named Bob Brown's cabal of Leftist Green Loons look like calling the tune on a number of ALP policies it will be interesting to see how long before the ADF are forced to disarm so as to implement the Greens "Non Violent conflict resolution tactics" through out the worlds trouble spots like Iran,Congo, Kenya,Sudan,Afghanistan, yes I am sure that when these Godless savages see the likes of Brigadier Lyn McDade armed to the teeth with her wheel barrow full of Geneva Convention by laws they will simply go weak at the knees and agree to stop their disruptive ways, after a few dozen of them have gang raped her and her fellow Peace Army members,citing the UN's "all cultures / Religions are equal " edict.
“Brigadier McDade has advised senior commanders of her intentions. Lawyers from Defence and other government departments are assessing the ramifications of the likely courts martial. Brigadier McDade will review submissions and any likely defence arguments before finalising her decision.
Oh Please someone get this MORON out of OUR Army.
