Should Aussies Protect Themselves

definitely.... may i suggest you hide under your bed until all Muslims are removed from this country.

The latest terror attack in Sydney is not a terrorist attack because the terrorist had no known links to terrorism. We all saw and heard what went down and he was caught with evidence, not enough to even put him on trial though.

This decision will work into the hands of the Muslims and their terror attack statistics in the future.

Truth justice and the Australian way.

Tip: Allahu Akbar in English means run for your life.

Nothing like a good old Muslim stabbing to bring the jokers out of the closet.

We can trick ourselves into thinking it wasn't terrorism or we can look at the facts - A young guy of Turkish descent with a knife kills one person and stabs another and he's yelling Allah Akbar

In the future, it would be wise if we knew where muslims lived in our suburbs and streets, learn if they are reasonably stable members of their families, if they have steady jobs or on welfare, the company they keep, etc

Our personal protection and that of our family and friends may depend on how much knowledge we have about muslims. The knowledge we have so far is that muslims have killed and maimed Aussies and other ethnics. What we need now is knowledge and perception that will warn us of pending attacks.

It's not a time to be defeatist JaSin

An acute sense of perception relating to potentially dangerous occurrences and knowledge of how they occur would lessen the risk of danger to ourselves, but only if we act positively and not just sit around postulating that they might or might not happen. The evidence is that they do happen from time to time and nobody can say when they'll stop

The frequency of Islamic attacks since 2014 in NSW and Victoria has been one a year since then. All but one resulted in murder of innocent people, six people in total

So let's start with that frequency and by the law of averages, the next attack will be due in late 2020

Its extremism in the reference to why you're saving lives.

|pərˈsep sh ən|
noun
the ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses : the normal limits to human perception.
• the state of being or process of becoming aware of something in such a way : the perception of pain.
• a way of regarding, understanding, or interpreting something; a mental impression : Hollywood's perception of the tastes of the American public | we need to challenge many popular perceptions of old age.
• intuitive understanding and insight : “He wouldn't have accepted,” said my mother with unusual perception.

These human senses are being deadened by prevailing politics and political correctness, but most of all by relying on others to keep us safe - bad blunder! Keep yourself safe, sharpen your perception senses and act on them

I'm advocating that we change our minds about relying on current politics, politicians and the muslim community's reassurance that we are safe from Islamic attacks

Politics is so convincing at times, that we allow the 10% of our brains (that Einstein said we only use), to drop to 8%.

An 8% brain is a brainwashed brain. I'm advocating we strive for 11% or higher. Developing and sharpening our sense of perception and intuition can go a long way to achieving this - but we must practice

What do you do when you get a phone call out of the blue from a person with an Indian accent wanting you to check your internet connection when you know there's nothing wrong with your connection?  Well of course, you hang up the phone, like I did the other day with such a call. My connection is fine, as you can see

I was a bit rude, hanging up like that halfway through a conversation with a lovely multicultural female Indian person - what a shocking thing to do

I perceived that I might have been about to hand over my personal details and money to a stranger on the phone. Of course I couldn't be sure but better safe than sorry. My details and money are still safe, with me, where they belong

If we use our sense of perception and intuition and act on them, we have a far better chance of protecting ourselves from harm and loss of property than taking advise from biased and politically motivated members of our community who are in positions of power and influence, quite often the wrong influence regarding our personal safety, and that of our family and friends

Prime Minister for Canyons wrote on Aug 22^nd, 2019 at 2:53pm:


So you use cocaine? You have a 6% brain?

Add 2019 street attack to that list (York St Sydney - but attack started indoors in unit in Clarence St, resulting in the killing of a young Aussie woman)


Months ...

The months attacks occured

Dec (2014)
Oct (2015)
Sep (2016)
April (2017)
Feb (2018)
Nov (2018)
Aug (2019)

Five of the attacks were in the second half of the year. Two were in the first half of the year

Based on the information so far, we can perceive that future attacks are more likely to happen in the second half of the year, and it's a good chance they will be "street" attacks

There is a lesser chance they will occur in the first half of the year, but as 2017 and 2018 show, but they can happen in the earlier months

The months of January, March, May, June and July appear to be relatively safe months. Our personal intuition, if used, will be telling us that the most dangerous time of the year is the last 6 months of each year

January seems to be a month of reprieve, but the months of Feb and April are not

If we change our minds about leaving things to chance, we can build up a perception within the Aussie community that brings to mind the potential danger based on specific information about Islamic attacks

Type of clothing worn by the attackers - but first ....

Beyond the Clothing: Behaviors and Manners

Islamic clothing is but one aspect of modesty. More importantly, one must be modest in behavior, manners, speech, and appearance in public. The dress is only one aspect of the total being and one that merely reflects what is present

on the inside of a person's heart

.


Abdul Numan Haider - ISIS type clothing, Western type clothing



Man Monis was nearly always seen in traditional Middle Eastern muslim attire



This guy in Melbourne wore a 3/4 length black robe split on the sides



This guy in Sydney wore Western style clothing




A 24-year-old Bangladeshi muslim woman charged over the stabbing attack in Melbourne was wearing a "black burka", it was understood - no pic because muslim women wearing burkas all look the same

"Ms Shoma had arrived the day before the incident and had planned to stay for about 10 days."

"Police said she had been enrolling in a course at La Trobe University and that it was understood she was wearing a black burqa"

.


The others I'm not sure about. The attire so far, worn by the attackers could be about 50/50 islamic muslim attire, and Western attire (Western attire worn by the younger attackers, in Sydney and Queanbeyan)

You can picture in your mind future attackers having either type of clothing, with the older muslim attackers most likely dressed in islamic traditional clothing, and the younger attackers probably will wear Western style clothing, but a young muslim woman was "understood" to be wearing a burka

We can perceive and intuit all this without Government interference or breaking any law. Perception is a very powerful tool if we use it and act accordingly to what it is telling us, to avoid future attacks

There are high ranking people in Australia now saying what the Mayor of London is saying: "Muslims will attack you in the future, it's a fact of life that muslims are unwilling to stop" - words to that affect

(Hong Kong) They'll be battered, they'll be bruised and many will be killed.
But I believe that they will prevail under duress of the entire length of WW3.
...rather than be 'exterminated in their entirety' which is the only other option China has.

This must be the slowest start of any war in the modern era.
Chinese pour into Russian lands as 'Free Settlers', though many are in Military Uniform keeping Law and Order there too. Putin fears China, probably more than the USA. Because the USA is not invading Russia (though the USA is making strong friends with the Ukraine: The Heart of Great Slavia<Slave>), like China is currently without opposition. Putin tries to entice Russians back out into those Siberian Lands with 'free' lands and homes - but no-one takes up those offers with any great enthusiasm like what the USSR offered, when it stole Siberia from the Yellow Man.

China and Russia will be at War soon.
(or, as Nostrodamus put it "Sino v Russo War")

Even Indonesia is cracking. For long, the Gangs ruled the cities, more so than the Police. Indigenous Peoples took to the streets from out of the junlges fully 'armed' with traditional dress and weapons in cultural pride. The Indigenous Borneans came out like Maori Warriors!!!! All looking for the blood of Moslems.
Throw in the Irian Jayan Genocide of Papuans and how more and more 'full metal jacket' Papuans and even Solomon Islanders are stacking the PNG border with Indonesia.
The Phillipines see Indonesia as the main perpetrator of Terrorism in the australasian (West of the Wallace Line) and Melanesia (East of the Wallace Line) areas. The Phillipines have declared 'War' on Terrorism and its just a formality for them to join others to destroy it out these areas that it is associated with, more than mainland Asia.
Throw in the Timorese, the Balinese (a lot of them 'white') and now the Indonesian Students rioting.

Well its bye bye Islamic Indonesia, let alone half of Indonesia itself.
Islam will only reach as far as Malaysia, for the Island Nations have renounced it.

Then there are the Moslems of the Middle-East (Holy Land), that is ruled by the Jews of Jerusalem (Holy City).
Who come to odds with the Christians of Europe (Holy Ghost) who serve only the Zoroastrians (Holy Temple).

Well the Moslems will soon do to the French
what the Germans did to the Jews.
Doesn't help when Britain 'Falters' and falls away from the EU and sets in motion for other nations to follow Politically, like a House of Cards. Leaving France standing alone basically, holding the last remains of the E.U.
(You think the burning of Notre Dame was bad.)
Signs. Portents.
Surely 'Science' can figure that one out? 

All this because the Italians will later get the 'unarmed' Moslems and the Jews will come to the aid of the Moslems and go the Italians as the new 'Super Power' of the Military World. Then finally it will be Britain's turn to face a United Islam/Israel (IstarI) as it gives up the Christian 'Holy Ghost' once and for all.

Quote:
Sheikh Yassir al-Burhami - an ISLAMIC scholar and Egyptian Salafi leader
http://www.raymondibrahim.com/from-the-arab-world/how-circumstance-dictates-isla...

This thread is about instilling in Aussies' minds that we have value and how we can protect ourselves from muslim attacks

We can't tell exact times and places future attacks will happen, but we can be on guard by acquiring knowledge of past attacks and assess the probability of future attacks happening in the same types of places and times of day

However, new places for Australia could be trains, train stations, sporting field grandstands. New times could be evenings, later in the night where crowds gather

Traditional Aussies' need to have the self-protection priority further up in their minds now that muslims are in our midst

Contrary to populist belief among the progressive humanists, muslim attackers are not a separate entity from the mainstream muslim community, they emerged from that Koranic community with thoughts in their heads that the Koran demands - take action against those who are not of the Islamic faith, and those who vote for governments who fight muslims in Islamic nations

Since the politicians are intent on bringing this "enemy" through our gates, it's up to us Aussies to protect ourselves by perceiving the possibility of danger and act intuitively if we find ourselves in such danger



PS no need for extra long posts Yadda. Just a few main points will suffice, with explanations of how best Aussies can protect themselves from muslim attacks and ensure survival

Not at all, and it's not a muslim bashing thread

It's about protecting ourselves by using a different method than just taking chances re: muslim attacks

We have at our disposal in our minds "Perception" and "Intuition", these are in short supply due to the fact that we take too many things for granted in our so called "safe" society

Let's take a parent or grandparent who allows their 6 year old child to play in the yard which has no fencing. The child is then snatched by someone and whisked away in a vehicle never to be seen again.

The parent or grandparent failed to use their perception to realize the danger, danger we have these days, and failed to act intuitively to do something about retrieving the child even though there was no danger at that moment. Perception is best acted upon before situations become dangerous for you or your loved ones, better safe than sorry

Today, perception of danger is replaced by "I can't think that, I might be inadvertently accusing someone of wrong doing, I'd better think purer thoughts"

In the case of muslim attacks, our perception and intuition are handy tools, but only if we use them. The societal environment we live in is dangerous in certain places and at certain times. It doesn't really pay to leave things to chance

The_Barnacle wrote on Dec 4^th, 2019 at 9:38pm:


I would disagree with the highlighted bit entirely. The only reason you're saying "do nothing" is because you regard terrorism as being far less important than those other dangers you mentioned, car accidents, suicide etc

It's strange that you say they are preventable and yet you seem to imply that terrorism is not preventable and therefore no one can do anything about it, just let people be killed because when "your number is up, it's up". Is that what you're trying to say?

Your philosophical view on terrorism of "do absolutely nothing about protecting ourselves" is actually very disturbing, I hope you don't expect me to hold that view

My view is that we can be knowledgeable about the places, times, the people, the motives and politics of wannabe attackers and once we have all that knowledge it will become like a second nature to avoid certain people, especially if they sport beards, and avoid certain places at certain times. Already we know that CBDs during the daytime are favored targets. We know that knifes are the preferred weapons

We need to change from our complacent "Leaving it to chance" - to - "Learn and be smart"

Are you saying the guys on the London bridge shouldn't have tried to stop that attacker the other day, that they should have just stood back and watch more people get stabbed? You reckon absolutely nothing should be done, don't you? Very disturbing mentality you have there

The thing is he was released half way through his sentence .... now, will the offenders in Goulburn supermax be let out early? This is something we'll need to know, and a whole lot more, to acquire a natural instinct about protecting ourselves

Jasin wrote on Dec 5^th, 2019 at 10:40am:



Let's not turn this thread into a muslim bashing thread JaSin. Some muslims have denounced violence and seem sincere .... but, the attacks still continue. So yes, perhaps the muslim community isn't doing quite enough within their own community to quell thoughts of violence. They could start with their teenagers and twenty year olds. Then the Imams could check their own preaching for any sign of "us" against "them" (muslims against non-muslim), before preaching in mosques or in literature

In the meantime we can take precautions to protect ourselves from future attacks by doing our best to not be where we perceive an attack could take place

Before we go out anywhere, we should ask ourselves, "Am I going into a place where attacks have occurred already, and what is the risk factor if I find myself in that place while out and about?"

That's on topic for this thread and relevant to "Islamic Attacks-Should Aussies Protect Themselves"

There's a glimmer of hope that politicians will wake up to themselves after the London attack. The politicians are running out of justifications why these Islamic attacks should be "Part and Parcel" of our daily lives

If family domestic violence can't be justified, then how can Islamic attacks be justified?

But as a British writer said ....

"There is also a tragic, suicidal and sacrificial quality to our diversity stupidity"

Yes, let's have more diversity - even if the politicians have to justify Islamic attacks, what does a few dead innocent people in the streets matter, every so often?

The_Barnacle wrote on Dec 5^th, 2019 at 3:45pm:


That last post of mine was bashing politicians, not bashing muslims

Nevertheless, read the opening post again ...

A bit from it ...

"It can be figuring out how often the attacks occur to know and remember the frequency at which they happen. They happen when we least expect them, so knowing how often would be helpful. We can avoid contact with muslims (in public places) Building up our psyche to avoid muslims will carry through to all aspects of your life, it will become automatic and go a long way to make us safer than those who ignore the danger"


We can change our minds about leaving things to chance. We can adopt a personal policy of assessing risk and do our own appraisal of potential danger of muslim attacks

Philosophically it's: "Leaving things to chance" versus "Personally and consciously assessing risk then acting accordingly"

The_Barnacle wrote on Dec 6^th, 2019 at 3:25pm:



"premature death" - That's right, victims die a premature death, and you shun your responsibility to protecting fellow Aussies by saying "we should do nothing about Islamic attacks". It's very disturbing how you think

I hope you're not like Gandalf who just considers the victims as statistics, but apparently you are, and the victims mean nothing to you

I reckon the guy who used that milk crate to pin down Mert Nay might say you're a bit of a slacker

The_Barnacle wrote on Dec 7^th, 2019 at 10:06am:


Well you've had your say and you have no compassion or empathy for the victims or their families now or in the future, you've demonstrated that clearly enough

The Police can only do so much and it's a credit to them that they catch some potential terrorists before the terrorism moves to the streets. However, if wannabe terrorists stop using the Internet and phones and stay away from surveillance cameras, the likelihood of more attacks is a possibility. The Police won't be able to do much about stopping those

Saying we have "other" dangers to worry about is just a cop-out. We need to be concerned about all dangers. These Islamic street attacks are relatively new to Australia, they're a danger now added to the list of dangers that already exist and we must deal with. On a personal basis, we can make ourselves aware of the danger of Islamic attacks by being knowledgeable and by being smart

The Government will never say "There is a new danger in our midst, beware of violent Islamists" .... because the Government is part of the problem, they created the problem

Working on averages, the next attack will happen next year, probably in the latter half of the year, but some earlier months in the year can't be ruled out either. On averages again, it will likely be a street attack, but that might change and be on a bridge or in a busy shopping center.

Since there is less US involvement in the Middle East now, the risk factor is lower, but not entirely eliminated. Muslims have other gripes, and willing to die for the cause, after they've slaughtered some innocent people going about their daily lives

You may not want to do anything about it, which only makes you part of the problem also. Not me, I will do what I can to alert to people to future danger from violent muslims. How about you, do you want to change your mind and help out, or just remain a vegetable about it?
