Civilised states should abide by the rules of war despite what uncivilised states do. At the same time, we better not hamstring ourselves or our allies by insisting on unreasonable, untenable and unrealisable measures of proportionality. Then only the bad guys win

You could almost feel sorry for Anthony Albanese, despite all the time and money wasted, the rancour and division in pursuit of a very bad idea. Now, as he crawls from beneath the Voice train wreck, his penance will be to endure the blame and pressure from those who fancied his vow to amend the Constitution as the first step to a treaty and, best of all, reparations

The months between Anthony Albanese's rash election-night pledge and the Voice's overwhelming rejection on October 14 saw public support follow an unvarying downward path to utter defeat. Much as its promoters prefer to blame racism, misinformation and 'sheer stupidity' for their failure, it was hubris, arrogance and bullying which brought their cause undone

The jaw-dropping demand that I needed permission to sing my own song in an indigenous dialect saw me sorely tempted to announce 'I apologise for performing on Latje Latje and Yerre Yerre land and would now like to acknowledge the traditional owners of Mildura ... the dinosaurs of 40 million years ago'. Only good manners stayed my tongue

It is precisely because we live in a genuine political democracy that the Voice advocates' attempt to has failed so decisively.  The Fathers of Federation built better than they knew: they not only devised a means of successfully governing Australia, but also by means of referendums the means to preserve it

Spare a thought for the delicate flowers of Australia's First XI, who have been offered counselling to cope with the Voice's failure. And they’re not the only ones in mourning, with Sydney's Clover Moore flying the Aboriginal flag at half-mast and what is evidently a widely distributed talking point -- 'Trumpian politics' -- on losers' lips all over. Don't these people own a mirror?

The referendum result wasn't a defeat for constitutional recognition of indigenous peoples or the aspirations of those same Australians. It was a defeat for the particular, poorly drafted, over-expansive proposed amendment put forward by Australia's indigenous elite and a political class that assumed bullying would see the nation submit to their will

The overwhelming No vote has made it clear to those who sought to divide us by race their input isn't wanted. Yet it must be acknowledged that they did the cause of truth a great favour in repeatedly asserting that what we have now isn't working. Terrific! Now let's find out where all those billions of dollars have gone and begin to set things right

It’s my own theory, but I think this time Hamas underestimated how 'successful' they would be at their favoured pastime, killing Jews. Hopefully Israel will now rid the world of this bipedal vermin once and for all. Unfortunately, Islam will remain, continuing to incite fanatics and thugs, the butchers and baby killers, to do their worst

Not only do the purveyors of imagined Aboriginal culture insult us while making us pay for favoured fantasies, their patronising advocacy for the 'world's oldest culture' helps to sustain barbaric initiations that still go on in places like West Arnhem Land. How proud must the urban sophisticates be to know their support locks fresh generations into lives of dependent hopelessness

The footage from Israel is stomach-turning, leaving no reason to doubt that Netanyahu in intent on honourings his promise to destroy Hamas completely and utterly. And, in what should serve as a warning to the world, there his invitation for the West to recognise its own self-interest and unite against the terror sponsored by Russia and Iran

"What was once Gadigal country is now the great city of Sydney, a place with an Aboriginal heritage, a British foundation, and an immigrant character, and now the leading city of the least racist and most colourblind country on earth -- a fragrant fact of which every Australian, regardless of race, or creed or gender, should be overwhelmingly proud"

Should the Voice win tomorrow, the implication will be that recognition of a separate, racially homogenous nation enables indirect discrimination against those of other races by designating them as 'foreign' nationals. The Voice may therefore be be seen as a covert circumvention of the prohibition on racial discrimination and exclusion under the guise of nationality

Australia’s Jews are a tiny minority, around 100,000, which is roughly a quarter of this year's immigration intake. Think about that, and then think about how, on Monday night, NSW Police chaperoned a disgusting and disgraceful mob of Hamas supporters while directing Jews to get out of town. There is something very wrong here

The hope that Noel Pearson might honour his threat to retire to a quiet corner if the Voice is defeated is a cheerful prospect which must in itself have added to the No vote. But the relief will be short-lived as the next crop of angry Indigenes is even more given to flinging insults, inflammatory rhetoric and, not to mince words, urging the destruction of Australia as we know it

Let us imagine that it is 2080 and all is bliss in Aboriginal communities. No more unemployment, domestic violence, truancy, abused children, alcoholism or poor housing. What chance of another referendum to repeal a now superfluous Voice? And how likely to be found is the political will to dismantle the separatist infrastructure and divisions it will have fostered?

The ABC unilaterally renaming our major cities and all the other in-your-face Aboriginal themes that now dominate our national life were imposed without any input whatsoever from the Australian people.  I imagine we would need a plebiscite to change the Australian Flag but not, apparently, to diminish it

From the First Fleet to the courtrooms of Tennant Creek and elsewhere, the one genuinely immutable aspect of 'the world's oldest continuous culture' has been brutality, especially against women and children. Why has the plethora of well-funded Aboriginal councils not tackled the violence? The evidence suggests they can’t solve the problem because they are the problem

Ex-BBC correspondent Nick Bryant, writing for the SMH, raves about the Yes TV ad's multi-generational leftoid clan and Farnham’s 'You're the Voice' soundtrack. You couldn't make this up: a British fellow’s gushing approval of a song written by four fellow Brits and performed by a bloke who grew up in Britain -- all this in the name of Australian Aborigines

The bestial attack on Israel came just as talks were heating up to add Saudi Arabia, home of Islam’s holiest sites, to the Abraham Accords. That is so monumental it would make Israel’s transformation from demonic Zionist entity to useful partner irreversible. For Jew haters everywhere, that is a nightmare indeed. No wonder Iran and Hamas felt compelled to act

To prevent states that denied the vote to Aborigines -- Queensland and Western Australia -- gaining extra seats in the House of Representatives by virtue of their presumed but untallied Aboriginal populations, Section 25 was inserted to penalise those states, not to penalise the Aborigines. How can a prominent legal scholar not know this?

Rather than express the wants and needs of the most disadvantaged Aborigines, the Voice would be a megaphone for the same activist cadre which constituted the pre-Uluru dialogues. What was confirmed by the 14 NIAA documents extracted via an FOI application is the Aboriginal Industry's determined intention to gain a treaty and, of course, reparations

Given all non-sub-Saharan African populations, including Aborigines, carry about 2 per cent Neanderthal DNA, I invite you to look beyond human biology's more recent experiments with physiognomy and pigment and follow my example by identifying as a proud troglodyte. See, discord and division banished in an instant as we share co-tenancy in the cave of all mankind

Gilbert and Sullivan would have loved Robert French, who despite retirement remains the very model of a modern activist judge, as attested by his recent address to the National Press Club. The former Chief Justice's grasp of what our Constitution is and what it is not goes beyond lamentable. It is frightening
