Well, here I go! I asked people to comment and then, I went away for the day and didn't get a chance to respond so my apologies! I'm going to try tagging people here and hope this works...
@HappyDays - (doesn't look like tagging works :-(
You are RIGHT! I was sure I had read 5,000 recruits but it is 500 per year for 5 years or a total of 2,500 - my apologies.
Since tagging doesn't work - here is my comment on those who said that this is just a training video and of course, the army trains against all sorts of scenarios.
After the last 3 years, the idea that the army would CHOOSE to use a video where their forces were pitted against what looks like unarmed civilians as one of those promoting recruitment is - to my mind at least - chilling. I don't think this was an accident. I do believe it is intentional. It's a warning. In future, if you 'act up' again by asserting your constitutionally guaranteed right to protest, this is what you will be facing.
I could be totally off-beam here. Maybe it is just innocent. But maybe it's not and that is how I took it. It's a threat against Australian civilians and in my opinion, it was meant to be.
I don't want this to be a knee-jerk reaction and I know that propaganda cuts both ways, however I still see this the way I saw it the first time around. Loving the discussion though and will try to find the time today whilst preparing for tonight's Under the Wire (back after 6 weeks off!) to respond to everyone here individually! Thank you all for the input.
Oh, by the way, I am having my daughter set up a Discord server tomorrow for exactly these types of discussions. From what she tells me, it will be a lot easier and more interactive - both of which are bonuses in my opinion :-)
The foreign recruitment reported is 500/annum over the next 5 years = 2500 total (not the 5000 you list in this substack).
While I disagree entirely that community policing should be anyone other than locals - one reason they are outsourcing is because they cannot get people to join the police. This is a good sign. Many have resigned because they were unwilling to the mandates and/or to the tyranny required of them.
So, there are many 'free agents' in the community now who are likely working to help empower/protect people in other ways.
Reports from ground zero at the protests was the officers behind those shield lines were crying because they didn't want to be in that position. It was thrust upon them by a few - and we all now - bullying happens everywhere.
The army video is a training video. It is obvious the people 'attacking' the shield line are part of that training. Some time ago, US DoD released video of soldiers in combat training vs. a zombie apocalypse where they had cosplay actors dressed to suit.
Such videos can easily be misrepresented - and used for propaganda.
After all we've been through and learned in the past 3+ years, we can be smarter than to fall for the next trigger click bait that gets vomited onto our media.
So - things to keep clear:
~ Who would misrepresent such a video as a fear campaign, and why> What do they have to gain, and what do we have to lose by responding as puppets when they pull the strings?
~ We can clearly see (from results over the past public gatherings/protests) that our energies and strengths are best used to build alternative systems and networks that make such tyranny and bullying strategies redundant.
To quote an oldie: imagine if they held a war and nobody turned up?
Keep encouraging and supporting people to stand up and step away from such bullying.
Stay calm.
Stay away from b.s.
Stay focused on solutions that empower, not news that confuses.
Perhaps the military are training to beat back the foreign militants (police, policy enforcers, belong to foreign corporations answering to foreign entities) in order to protect the civilians, which is what they sign up for.
The article and most of the comments come from a position of ignorance as sad as that is, all made by those with zero understanding of the context of the training. Just like always jump to conclusions and make assumptions. Whilst I have the utmost respect for the work you do Meryl, I suggest doing more due diligence before making claims they are "Training to beat down on Australians". Nothing can be further from the truth. This is not new, it is not new world order, UN contract cops or any other BS that people are claiming. This training has been done in some form since the inception of the Australian Armed forces in the 1900's. Everyone runs round telling people to wake up,. its time many people who are commenting and posting their "analysis" which in this case is biased and flawed, take their own advice, wake up and stop spreading fear based on assumption and bias.
I think you are being a bit harsh! Sure our soldiers need to learn to fight, to use weapons, to work together etc. Thats how Aussie soldiers got a good reputation as fighters in past wars. And there was always 'collateral damage'. I accept we cannot all be 'wowsers' in war time. however, this clip shows the face of war time to come: facing off against potential civilian protestors.The 'enemy within- (i.e so called domestic terrorists' Looks like a scene from Battleground Melbourne (a must watch Australian documentary at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzfJGC1_yPo) Looks like they had a great time making this ad .... but look at the enemy: us!! The people of Australia!!
I guess they have to do training, like all armies do, but to do this, to see how they are against a 'mob' - in a recruitment video?? That's a bit scary. What sort of people do they want to recruit?!?!
Look, I don't have a problem with the actual training. What happens if there's a dangerous zone that they don't want people going to, or there's something like the Cronulla Riots again? It's reasonable training IMO. BUT I don't like it being a part of a recruitment video. That was more than crass. And those employed from overseas would have far less qualms taking out civilians that are not their 'own'. What better way to take down 'civilians' than with non-civilians! :-(
For the record, obviously all the guys here are all Army in this video. BUT, I have to say, the 'mob' did a bit better job than the 'army' did, ha ha!! Those 'army' blokes have a long way to go before they're Roman Army level! Although, both sides were actually 'armed' - both had batons, the 'mob' had objects to throw as well as big tyres, and some of the massive shields + some body armour, but the 'army' had dogs, lots of shield and way more body armour.
BUT - what if, as would be the case in reality, the 'army' had guns, rubber bullets, other projectiles like that? The mob wouldn't stand a chance. Perhaps this was just a ground test to see how they'd go against a mob once their ammo ran out. And I'd like to think that if the ammo ran out, these bastards would be annihilated, as would be deserved. Taking out your own countrypeople, just for saying 'no' (invariably quite reasonably!) to the the govt! Of course, to take the unarmed Army out, you've got to have able bodied people remaining, post-shooting, taking them out. Possibly a bit difficult if there aren't too many people remaining and they've just been shot at with all the Army's ammo.
Now I don't think ANY regular Australians want another rubber bullet session like what happened in Melbourne. If it's tried again in Melbourne, every man & his dog are going to come out and and say "NO WAY!" and fight the police. I'd like to think so, anyway. They were dark days in Australia then, very dark days indeed. BUT, what if it happens in another state...like QLD? The people in that state haven't had the actual violence done TO themselves yet. They just observed it in Melbourne via the news. So, would they back off if it was done to them, in the city? And then what if it happened in WA? Or NT? When would people actually fight back properly? And when would more civilians come to their aid?
My concern is this: how many states can get away with attacking their constituents before there's a massive uprising? Will it take 2 or 3 different state attacks before people cry 'Enough!' or will they come out of the woodwork as soon as there's another attack - anywhere in the country...?
What an absolute disgrace this country has become. If Qld (where this story initiates) had done the right thing and used money in the right areas - and the politicians got off their huge backsides and did the right things - chances are this would not have come to this. And who are the overseas police or whatever they call themselves - this disgraceful and totally useless Qld govt has to go - and be replaced with the right caring people who will do justice for the state, people and country. Enough of this BS
The Agenda rolls on. Beyond the uniparty theatrics of elections, this decades-long campaign against the people continues.
With the lunge towards Digital ID, plus this Trojan 'policing' by a supra-national body - after thinning the ranks of those with morals via the DeathVax mandates and thus generating the 'need' - and the legal screws being turned on even peaceful protests. Added to the new WHO-powers to govern whenever they get the urge, as the soft entry to the NWO/OWG. Per the C19 Plandemonium, we have set incentive structures that are anti-human. No healthy system would have done that, not with 100% consistency. An intelligent malicious hand behind the curtain ensured these outcomes.
They created the problems and they are offering us their solution.
We are not creeping towards totalitarianism.
We have already arrived there. All that remains is for the curtain at the back of the theater to be parted showing the prison wall where a door had been. By then it will be too late. The painless escape from this future was back in time. When we didn't speak up at the first creeping authoritarian measures.
We don't turn the situation around, from here. Too many are apathetic. Too many are invested in the juggernaut, or compromised as debt slaves. Per the Matrix, they need the system to continue, and they will never choose to escape it. Others have been marginalised. The prison, per Huxley, has been assembled over decades - and few realise they are already prisoners.
So we push through and past. To a new dawn, and a better day. For our children.
There will be hardship, and losses.
And ultimately justice, too. When we vanquish the juggernaut for good. And free our people.
