Comments on: The “targeting” and “pressure” that so annoyed John Lyons https://www.jwire.com.au/the-targeting-and-pressure-that-so-annoyed-john-lyons/ Australia, NZ and worldwide Jewish news that matters Thu, 07 Sep 2017 13:26:11 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Paul Winter https://www.jwire.com.au/the-targeting-and-pressure-that-so-annoyed-john-lyons/#comment-246193 Thu, 07 Sep 2017 13:26:11 +0000 http://www.jwire.com.au/?p=76348#comment-246193 In reply to Adrian Jackson.

I am so pleased that you think so highly about the ABC,BBC and Al Jazeera. Your loyalty to news distorters tells us just what of value your opinion is.

Smearing AIJAC as extreme right is a classical authoritarian tactic. It is the same as the Nazis calling a person a Jew or Communists calling a Jew a rootless cosmopolitan; once labeled such a person’s views become invalid. But that tactic is just infantile name-calling.

Israel does good business with the Indians and the decision to buy US stuff is as much political as military. But it doesn’t matter; if I am not mistaken the US drones are designed by an ex-Israeli.

Australia does need drones as does any modern military. The drones in bee colonies carry no sting. And neither do you, judging by your comments.

And do watch your grammar when you post on J-Wire.

As far as Israel is concerned he finds it almost impossible to say even one positive thing about the country. It appears to me that there are other driving forces in his mind about Israel which should make his readers suspect his motives and veracity as a journalist

The ABC is a brilliant fit for this kind of journalist; just perfect.
They can dish it out, but can’t take it, so when challenged, they blubber and bleat.

One of the tactics of the extreme right is to attack people like in this article.

Incidentally the ADF will not be buy in the Israeli made aerial attack drone preferring the Yankee one instead.

However does Australia really need drones? If so we should build our own.
