This story just keeps on giving.

It has the potential to bring Tony Abbott down.

 

Frances Abbott's teacher says she didn't deserve scholarship

A design academic who taught the Prime Minister’s daughter and has been caught in a leaking scandal has brought a legal claim against his former employer saying he was effectively dismissed – and he has added Tony Abbott as a respondent to the action.

Academic Melletios Kyriakidis is at the centre of a storm over how the Whitehouse Institute, a private design school with Liberal Party connections, awarded a scholarship worth some $60,000 to Mr Abbott’s daughter Frances in 2011.

In May this year, Mr Kyriakidis leaked news of the scholarship to the media and was investigated by his employer for breaching student privacy. He resigned in June but has now brought an adverse action complaint in the Fair Work Commission alleging he was constructively dismissed and discriminated against for his political beliefs

He has brought the claim against Whitehouse Institute and four other individuals including Mr Abbott .

Speaking in an interview with afr.com for the first time since the affair broke, he said he was “morally outraged” by the waiving of Ms Abbott’s tuition fees, particularly given the government’s plans to increase the cost of degrees.

“If you are going to put a budget out there and say you all have to do it tough, you have to lead by example,” Mr Kyriakidis said. He taught Ms Abbott over three years.

He questioned whether Mr Abbott’s daughter was worthy of a merit scholarship, saying while she was a hard-working “high achiever” who got a distinction for portfolio design, “there were a lot more people more deserving [of a scholarship]”.

“Even from her class I could name 10 people more deserving either for merit or financial need or both,” he said. He added that he knew of other “more deserving” students who tried to get a scholarship and were rebuffed.

He also expressed his sadness at Ms Abbott being caught up in the affair.

“Frances is a lovely person. I don’t want this to be about her but I want this to be about fairness.” Mr Kyriakidis said he leaked to the press because he believed he was a whistle-blower.

MPs must disclose gifts above $750 that go to dependent children.

Mr Abbott has resolutely said his daughter’s scholarship was awarded on grounds of merit and did not need to be disclosed. In his FWC case, Mr Kyriakidis alleges Mr Abbott should have disclosed the scholarship .

Australian forces could help with America's Iraq mission: Tony Abbott
 
August 9, 2014 - 4:15PM

National political reporter

Australian forces could be involved in a humanitarian mission to Iraq within days, to provide food and water to the thousands of people stranded in the north of the country, Prime Minister Tony Abbott has announced.

Mr Abbott said the United States has asked Australia to consider participating in humanitarian air drops in the mountain area near the city of Sinjar and that officials in the US and Australia are currently in talks.

‘‘There is a looming humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in northern Iraq right now,” Mr Abbott told reporters in Sydney on Saturday.

“Some 40,000 women and children mostly, are exposed on a mountain surrounded, as I understand it, by Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant forces that are threatening to kill them.”

Mr Abbott added that Iraqis were exposed in the mountain area, without food, water and shelter, noting that US President Barack Obama had called the situation a potential genocide. 

The Prime Minister said that the US had already begun air drops and were looking to continue them for as long as people are exposed.

Mr Abbott said that Australia had two C-130 Hercules aircraft based in the United Arab Emirates that could be used to help America's efforts.

He added that it was important that Australia ‘‘join our international partners in doing what we can to render assistance’’.

This comes as Mr Abbott announced he will leave Australia early on Sunday morning, to travel to the Netherlands and London.

In the Netherlands he will personally thank Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte for the Netherlands’ role in leading recovery efforts after the MH17 disaster and have briefings on the process for identifying the victims.

In London, Mr Abbott will talk to security and intelligence officials and senior members of the British government about counter-terrorism operations and the situation in Iraq.

I'm all for it hope they check every single website is Australians are surfing. Every single one.

Stopping pedos dealers and potential  terrorists should be our priority.

[Judge Roughneck]

What could go wrong

[dwaino]

Sounds like a book I read.

[Francois Jackson]

What could go wrong

dealers getting caught

pedo's  getting arrested

homicides getting solved.

yep seems like a lot could go wrong to me.

i say good on em if you do the right thing you should have nothing to worry about.

[dwaino]

I doubt it's even going to happen. Where are they going to store the information? Going by this government's track record on anything technological I expect they'll head on down to JB hifi and pick up a few external drives on sale. This is right before ISPs start asking for compo for packet interruption. Can only fit so much on that old green copper.

ISPs can already track browsing history and the government already has freedom to this info with a warrant. They can also write software to detect criminal trends. But all they need to do is monitor the ports that typically route to the deep web because that's where the gun traffickers and kiddie fiddlers hang out. Google aren't going to code their spiders to bot that stuff nor will anyone host it. Real crims also hide behind VPNs and proxies. Have fun finding them. They actually want to spy and develop profiles. Their supporters will lap it up because they're just as much in the dark ages and are the kinds who call tech support.

[tony_montana]

yeah good luck tracking the real crims in the deep web

 (search: 'child ring'. The forum will not allow me to link the article)

Where are these 800,000 children per year, that go missing going? From the little I've looked into it, it seems to me it's a fetish amounts the elites in society. A custom that's go in the highests rungs of society. I highly doubt banning the average jo blow Internet in Australia is going to solve the problem that is strongly linked to the rulers of the lands...

the mainstream media was reporting this issue a lot recently... Until I assume that we're tapped on type shoulder by the powers to be and told to focus on issues like gaza and Ukraine... Turn the eyes away

Look into the British pedo file ring. Very dodgy. Te highest people in the land are responsible. They are also the ones apparently that are going to give justice to the pedos. Ie. themselfs...

The mainstream media won't go near it

But if you want to remove freedom and privacy from society do it. But it won't solve this issue. We are a bitch of a America. I am not surprised if we have our own patriotic act which ass rapesd the rights of citizens.

Teens were drugged, stripped naked, raped, hunted down in the woods and killed by European royals according to this week’s latest eyewitness to testify before the International Common Law Court of Justice in Brussels. The woman was the fourth eyewitness to give accounts about these human hunting parties of the global elite Ninth Circle Satanic Child Sacrifice Cult network. A former member of the Netherlands criminal drug syndicate known as Octopus testified that victims were obtained for these human hunting parties from juvenile detention centers in Belgium and Holland.

“In 2004 I was an involuntary witness to torture, rape and murder sessions of drugged children performed for a group of high ranked people of the Netherlands” stated a woman. “I was taken to a hunting party in Belgium close to Brussels where I saw two boys and a girl ages 14 to 16, hunted and killed by global elites. The human hunting party was heavily guarded by the Netherlands Royal Guards. I was told that King Albert of Belgium was present.”

Apparently there is a banned documentary: the conspiacry of silence. Which is very good in regards to this topic. It all depends how far down the rabbit hole you wanna go.

But I think it's a bit silly to watch everyone's Internet - if your reasoning is to stop worldwide / Australian pedos.

I hear North Korea has a low crime rate.

"Master race" quote

While the alleged "Master race" quote is improbable, it is surprising that it is not cited here, even as an allegedly "fabricated quote." The evidence that it is fabricated must be presented.

        "Our race is the Master Race. we are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects.... Other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves"


This is from the Begin Center: WEDNESDAY, MAY 27, 2009

Correcting A Misquotation Reputedly By Menachem Begin This past week, the Begin Center received this request for information:

Can you please help me with this?

This quote

"Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves."

is attributed to Begin and it is all over the web.

Do you know where it came from?



This was our reply:

Dear S_____,

I gave your request to our director of information and content and after some thorough research, I have the following for you:

First of all, Mr. Begin never said those words and there is no factual basis for that quote. When we searched for the quote, we found that it looped back to the same text by Texe Marrs, who does not say that he is quoting Begin.

Further research at this site showed that the quote was attributed to "Amnon Kapeliouk's article "Begin and the Beasts" (New Statesman, June 25, 1982) which was infamous for having misrepresented some remarks Menachem Begin said in a speech to the Knesset, and there are legitimate sources all over the net that make reference to that incident.

However, the misrepresented quote is not the one cited ("Our race is the Master Race", etc.), but another one entirely (see below). Clearly, someone invented the "Master Race" quote and then tacked on Amnon Kapeliouk as the source, to give it credibility. However, even the REAL (and far less offensive) quote has now been proven to have been misrepresented by Kapeliouk.

The REAL story involving Kapeliouk's article is provided by a media-watch group called CAMERA (Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America), which regularly debunks bogus news reports and misquotes.

Here:

...Internet hate sites, as well as Fisk, attribute the derogation of Palestinians as “two-legged beasts” to former Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. The source generally given is:

Menachem Begin, as quoted in Amnon Kapeliouk, "Begin and the Beasts, "New Statesman, June 25, 1982

Indeed, the radical French-Israeli journalist, Amnon Kapeliouk, did attribute such a quote to Begin in his New Statesman article criticizing Israel’s invasion of Lebanon. The author posited:

For this reason the government has gone to extraordinary lengths to dehumanize the Palestinians. Begin described them in a speech in the Knesset as "beasts walking on two legs

However, further investigation by CAMERA reveals that the actual speech upon which Kapeliouk based his quote, as well as news reports at the time demonstrate that the journalist distorted the quote, giving it a completely different tone and meaning. Begin was referring not to "the Palestinians" in a general sense but very specifically, he was referring to terrorists who target children within Israel...Kapeliouk neither recanted nor apologized for his deception...

I hope that helps.


Moreover, we will be conferring with others in Israel and abroad to attempt to verify that the no one has ever heard or seen this quote and whether it is authentic. At present, we understand that there is no reliable source and until proven otherwise, which we doubt can be done based on our archival mateiral and personal familiarity with Mr. Begin, we reject the veracity of the words supposedly either spoken or conveyed. The quotation is bogus.
