Menagerie of Multiculturalism Can only Give Rise to Internal Conflict

By Con George-Kotzabasis

The writer of this article does not make a distinction between perceived and real threats. And like an alchemist he transforms real threats into perceived ones. The Muslim internal fundamentalist threat is not imaginary but a real one. And as such, it inevitably raises the hackles of hostility of most Australians.

One should give therefore “the good old Aussie finger” to all the shallow cultural and political analysts, like Professor Robert Manne, who are unable to make a serious contribution to the complexities that rise in a society that has a “menagerie” of different cultures in its midst, that ultimately are bound to clash with each other.

The Way to Hell is Blazed by Nipple-fed Intellectuals


By Con George-Kotzabasis

Professor Juan Cole is another bright recruit joining Clemom’s brigade of nipple-fed-intellectuals that will fight the scimitar wielding terrorists (dubbed by Clemons “so called war on terror”, as if 9/11 was a ‘wet dream'.) with olive branches in its hands. Cole has been serially wrong in all his prognostications about the outcome of the war in Iraq and yet for Clemons is one of the “most knowledgeable and thoughtful American observers of the Middle East.”

It’s certain that the way to hell will be blazed by this intellectually flabby set of political and strategic epigones.

Political Vaudeville Staged by Liberal Impresario


By Con George-Kotzabasis

This is political vaudeville at its best. While the Opposition forces are grievously pounded by Gaddafi’s arms and are calling for an active “Western support” to prevent their defeat before the bloodhounds of the regime, Steve Clemons of The Washington Note calls, with extraordinary coolness to those who are willing and prepared with direct action to save the Opposition from destruction, to “shelve emotion-and to think through very carefully what would make on-the-ground difference and not delegitimate (M.E.) the Opposition and what would not.” This is like calling for the legitimacy of the dead once Gaddafi is let free to deal his death blow to the Opposition.

Defection of Foreign Minister of Libya Makes the Collapse of Regime Inevitable.

NATO in Libya Fraught with Peril April 01, 2011


By Sean Kay The Washington Note

A short reply by Con George-Kotzabasis

Sean Kay’s NATO in Libya Fraught with Peril, is politically inept and has already been overcome by events. As we had predicted, the end result of a decisive military intervention by Western powers would be to bring the collapse of the Gaddafi regime. Now the degringolade of the regime is imminent. This is clearly foreshadowed by the defection of foreign minister Moussa Koussa, a close collaborator of Gaddafi and a former director of Libyan Intelligence to boot, that sets the example for other high officials of the regime to follow. Even Turkey, which up till now was hesitant to take a stand in regard to the upheaval, is now calling for Gaddafi to step down.

And who would be a better qualified person than a former director of Intelligence to read correctly the vibes and disposition of the Libyan people toward the regime, and more importantly, the latter’s inability to suppress the bouleversement against it, and hence induce Mr. Koussa, for these reasons, to abandon the doomed sinking ship of Gaddafi?
