LITTLE ANTONY AND THE IMPERIALS

Antony Loewenstein is no imperial writer serving imperial masters fighting imperial wars to extend their imperial powers! No, he’ll never take imperial payments from imperial America to encourage these imperial follies.

Instead, Antony will lead the anti-imperial struggle against the imperial arrogance that is driving this imperial war—correction; imperial wars. Classic imperial thinking, recorded in shorthand by imperial stenography, reveals the imperial ambition and imperial arrogance of the imperial power.

As Antony knows, western imperial interests and imperial ambitions need to take a break. I suggest an imperial holiday destination.

  8. God this man is a fuckwit. I am nearly certain he does not believe what he says. People who are as genuinely passionate as he seeks to portray himself take some care with the language. They don’t just spew what they think their target audience wants to hear. Most of all they make some effort to say something new. A true dissident thinks. This man does not.

    That makes this man something truly loathsome. A liar to the core. On a gravy train and determined to ride it for all it’s worth.

    I predict that in about ten years this guy will be writing confessions. “How I was misled; the evils of fascism from the inside ...” and so on.

    If he imagines for a moment, then or now, that he is going to get a sympathetic reception then the shock will shake him to the bones.

    The Ant has thrown his dice. He won’t get another toss.

  12. The thing Loewenstein doesn’t realise is that the supposedly 200 people who click on his blog each day, do so—to either spit on his virtual shadow or laugh their heads off at him.

    His number one fan addamo (who comments on almost every post is seriously deranged):
    “Indeed Captain,
    If I were you, I too woudl be ashamed fo this lunatic rant from teh AJN.”

    “but word has it that Olmert is endowed with a sizeable nose, a receeding hairline, noticeable fron lines and pronounces nasial labial folds.”

  25. It is surely a sign of how desperate the pro-fascist homophobes and misogynists are that AL is their guru. On what basis does he claim to be the voice of a “Jew?” He is an athiest, a Socialist, does not observe Jewish holidays or customs, and is not acknowledged by other Jews. And yet Macquarie University has appointed him “as a Jew” to a position for which he has no training or temperament.

  30. I went to Macquarie University some years ago and studied Economics. I took a minor in Politics.One of the subjects was Middle East Politics, taken by Andrew Vincent—The man responsible for taking on AL at Macquarie.It was fairly standard stuff. You know, Israel bad, Arabs badly treated by the British, then the Americans etc etc. It was right after the first Gulf War, and I sat simply stunned by the pro Saddam diatribe that made up the entire course.Needless to say, my final presentation was on the Gulf War, and I praised the tremendous efforts of the Coaltion, led by the US, to enforce international law, and return Kuwait to its sovereign state. The looks on Vincents face, and the rest of the clueless class were almost too enjoyable for words to describe.Mind you, despite the fact Vincent said he agreed with almost nothing in my paper, and thought my conclusions lacked insight—he still gave me a B+. How does a Professor of a course say you are wrong on most counts, but still give you a B+ ? Because he knows he is just being a contrarian little man, who is fully aware he is full of shit.

  40. Hi Daphne.

    I’m curious as to why you only ever appear on threads which concern Ant Loewenstein?

    On another thread you made a number of wacky statements which include a desire to blow away his missus with an F88 Steyr and that you spend all your time honing your weapon skills and hunting anti-Semites.

    If the latter statement is not (as I strongly suspect) online wankery and you are indeed capable of walking the talk, I have the perfect anti-Semite for you to hunt down.

    Carl Leonard Thompson is a former commando in the Australian army. He is a current firearms licence holder and has more kit packed away in his safe than the average West Virginian. Carl loves guns and guns love Carl! His knowledge of things that go bang probably rivals yours. In February this year, the Executive Council of Australian Jewry took Thompson to the Federal Court over his publication of an article in a One Nation newsletter which basically blamed “The Joos the Joos” for all the master race’s ills. ON didn’t contest the case and Thompson’s article was indeed found to be unlawful re the Racial Discrimination Act.

    Thompson has been extensively involved with the Australian far-right and only last week he became the Aussie fuhrer of the National Socialist Movement. See here for the lowdown on that and here for an ADL briefing on what the NSM get up to in the US (they were the group responsible for the Toledo riots). They’re backed by trust fund baby,Bill White, ie these guys despite being utter fruitcakes actually have a fair bit of money to throw around to further their fruitcake activities, money that is starting to trickle down under.

    I present Thompson to you as he most certainly seems to be a more adequate match for someone of your calibre. Let’s face it, Ant Loewenstein, bless him, would probably need three full days to take apart and reassemble a steyr F88 (and that is with the instructions). Ant would also spend several days with a grenade just looking for the headphone jack.

    Point.

    It’s pretty pissweak to play tough guy against an amiable nebish, who, despite his progresive/lefty/unorthodox views on Israel and Zionism is nonetheless a Jew, a proud Jew. To repeatedly label him a “Jew hater” and make loaded comments regarding ovens and the like (AND bringing his missus into it) is just plain weak.

    If you are that focused on bringing down Nazi scum, why not come take down some actual Nazis instead of issuing threats to non-Zionist Jews?

    Fightemback seems to have a far more intimate knowledge of Ant than I would ever care to have. Rather than waiting for perfect anti-semites to attack, I think the very imperfect ones such as Ant deserve derision. He is a lightening rod to Jew haters and baiters. Unfortunately he is being taken seriously by Melbourne University Press and Macquarie University and therefore does deserve all the attacks that he gets.

  47. Captain

    Ant-boy’s book is probably taking a long time to edit at MUP. It’s due out in a month or so. I would expect it’s a nightmare for the copyeditors—you know—his bad spelling and lack of knowledge about politics and geography. With his performance history, they would have to check the sexes of everyone he’s named. He may have written that the Israeli Prime Minister was a girl. They’re probably pulling their hair out fixing all his errors (and wishing they’d never taken him on). He really has turned out to be a big embarrassment. But then again, remember MUP took on Mark Latham!

    The war of words and ideas is as important as any other method of combat. People like Loewenstein, Vincent and their idiot heroes need to be given hell and made accountable for their perversity at every opportunity.

    I can’t wait for the little bang of his book launch. Fizzzzz.

    Errm ok. That’s me told.

    I mean, rip into Loewenstein if that’s what floats your boat. All I’m saying is that there are plenty of Jew-hating nutters out there and you seem like an “up and at’em” type character who likes guns. Why not duke it out with a piece of Nazi trash who also likes guns? I woulda thought such a person would be a more satisfying opponent for you.

    People like Loewenstein, Vincent and their idiot heroes need to be given hell and made accountable for their perversity at every opportunity.

    Then I guess lambasting the dude on a website where 99.99999999999% of the regular viewers already hate his guts might not be the most valuable use of your time. I’ve got no idea what you’re doing outside of this to give Ant hell but may I offer a small piece of advice?

    Threatening to shoot his girlfriend probably isn’t the way to go. You know, things could get messy and kinda ..’legal’. It aint a good look to talk about “holding people accountable”, whilst bragging about your firearm prowess and declared intentions to shoot the partner of someone you would like to hold accountable. Online wankery and posturing or not, it aint cool. Tell us, IS it merely posturing or should is there a genuine reason to fear you and your F88 Steyr?

    I see the Australia First Sutherland Shire rep Darrin Hodges(darrinh) posts here too. Check this specky pic of Darrin (far right, red shirt) hangin with his bootboy chums. Let’s zoom in to one of these boneheads. What’s that? Why it’s a swazi tat on his forearm!

    If Carl Thompson aint your cup of tea Daphne, you can always have a crack at Darrin. Daz is very proud of his stash of Hitler videos and describes himself as being into the purer form of facism.

  52. #30 WHAB - Quite so.  In my experience it doesn’t matter what you say so much as writing gramatical sentences and, most importantly of all, getting your referencing system correct and having a reference for just about everything.  And, I forgot, exceeding the word limit by at least 20%. Despite that the lecturer says, quantity rather than quality really does count.  The lecturer isn’t the least interested in your opinions and conclusions; he’s interested in how you quote other’s opinions, especially his.  Get all that right and there’s a B right off.

    As for fascism (yes matthew, that’s how it’s spelt), central to the ideology is the concept of community, as opposed to today’s society where diversity is strength, perversity is virtue and success is oppression.  I’ve not advocated my views on this site I only mention it now as a defence against Henderson and his cronies, who enjoyed ringing my employers on several occasions (all though I’m not certain what my hobbies have to do with work) as well as harrassing emails, all in an effort to have me fired, simply because he disagree’s with my views.

    Possessing a firearm in Australia is not generally legal as you know. And I am a law abiding citizen. I am trained and qualified to use several weapons but I’m not in the habit of shooting outside of my job.

    This is cyberspace. We joke. We vent. This is a great venue for many things we would not normally say or do in reality. It is also a good way to express and exchange humour. But within cyberspace it isn’t a good idea to take anything too seriously.

  58. Captain
    I think the danger from people like Loewenstein is that they will gain legitimacy and be placed into positions of influence where their views are not debated or questioned. He has a right to free speech, but his discourse is based on inaccuracies, lies and self promotion, and it must be challenged at every turn—not promoted to a position of influence and authority.

    His friend at Macquarie who put him onto the Board there is a perfect example. Vincent pioneered a computer simulation program for schools where kids had to pretend to be Palestinian victims in order to pass their exam.

    Now these weren’t real Palestinians who knocked back a peace plan 3 times or who refuse to relocate from refugee camps to Jordan (where they have a complete right of return and is 70% of old Palestine anyway) or who don’t work because they have a UN body (UNWA) completely devoted to their victimhood (and which employs its own clients to perpetuate the victimhood). But Pallywood Palestinians who are poor downtrodden victims while the cameras are rolling and who find the money to fire rockets at Israeli families when the cameras are turned off.

    In the US, universities are full of sickos like Ant-boy who prey on the country’s youth. Here, we need to fight so that they cannot fill our lecture theatres with their lies.

    As for “your job” ...I’m sure your employer wouldn’t be too cool with you (even jokingly) making statemenets like “I’d shoot with my F88 Steyr as soon as look at her.”

  60. Here, we need to fight so that they cannot fill our lecture theatres with their lies.

    How would you intend to fight them?

    Are we talking the obvious and still reasonably affective ways of lobbying University Council, building up a strong AUJS that actually gets political? Writing letters to various faculty heads and sponsors of any given department you wish to fight?

    I ask because considering your professional background you don’t strike me as the sort of person to adopt orthodox strategies of lobbying and persuasion.

    Are you Ant-boy’s little spy-boy?

    Your determination to drag this on and on and turn a comment that was a joke into a capital offence is beginning to get very suspicious.

    You repeat it at every opportunity and refer to it in every comment you post.

    Perhaps you had better come clean on what your real intention is.

    As for Tim—like 99% of us I’m sure—he saw the comment l made weeks ago (yes all that time ago) as the joke it was. You on the other hand, grabbed on to it, dreamed about it, fantasised about it and then lectured me endlessly on Nazis and how nice Ant-boy really was.

    Hmmm a very interesting reflection me thinks. Are you capable of moving on here, or do you need to check with Ant-boy?

  65. Daphne,

    If somone like Yobo made that comment, you’d treat it as a joke.

    When someone like yourself who fanatically rants on about holding people accountable, brags about their firearms prowess, who says they work with firearms, who intones that they do a lot for “the cause”, who then intones that “the cause” could very well be their job and ooh ooh ooh aint she spooky what kidon team she working with today ...then it kinda warrants a bit more sussing out.

    As for saying “ha ha it was all a joke”, I really don’t see a humorous context flooding through this:

    Natashja

    Loewstein’s precious girlfriend is a rabid Jew-hating suicide-bomb loving anti-Zionist. I go after her because she deserves to be gone after. Like her boyfriend, she would throw her relatives in the ovens to bring herself five minutes of fame.

    And yeah, hell, I see it my duty to bring Loewenstein down—to tear him apart—in any way I can. He is the lowest of low. He sides with the anti Semites against his fellow Jews and he wants the insurgents to win against our own soldiers in Iraq. He is a traitor, and this is war. I’d blow the Nazi-loving bitch away with my F88 Steyr as quick as look at her.

    Apart from the obvious threats which you are now trying to negate, let me inform you just who wrong you’ve got this. Do you know Ant’s gf? I bet you don’t.

    Calling her Nazi-loving is a tad offensive to someone (like her) who busted her arse to prevent the German NDP (the REAL NAZI PARTY) reps from entering Australia. See here for more info on that. Calling her Nazi-loving entails that you have no idea how hard she worked liaising with the Russian Jewish communities in Bondi and Strathfield in order to shut down the largest gathering of Australian neo-Nazis in ten years or more. That link will help you make sense of it.

    Anyway ..you’ve asked me to “move on” from your gun-nuttiness. You’ll notice I already posted a few questions re how YOU would “fight” the evil scourge of Ant and Dr Andrew “the undertaker” Vincent and their like on our campuses. You’re full of fighting talk but not so full of useful strategies on how to make people “accountable” ..well except for shooting them that is.

  66. What’s your point Darrin? A Jewish conspiracy between Ant, myself and Joe Hildebrand?

    Kinda tough considering only one of us is Jewish.

    I will concede, a conspiracy it is. We meet every morning in my back shed and plot out just how we convince the Australian public that Darrinh looks just like Gargamel

    Opposing neo-Nazis is easy because it’s politically correct.  The white supremacists constitute a handful of individuals and groups that exist on the margins of Australian society.  They are ostracised and wield no political power. It is a movement of semi-educated emotionally disturbed losers. And they are hardly the most serious threat to Australian democracy in 2006.

    Far more menacing are the elements for whom Loewenstein and Polywise have so much sympathy—the radical jihadists who are fighting a war to impose a 7th century value system in the form of a global caliphate.  They have declared their allegiance for the al-Qaeda insurgents in Iraq, and Loewenstein has even gone so far as to say that the defeat of America and its allies is “vital.” They have chosen to support the enemy side in this war.  And given the similarities between the Jew-hatred peddled by the jihadists and that flogged by neo-Nazis, I think my point is extremely valid.

    I make no apology for being multi-skilled. So friggin what if I am weapons qualified and an academic. Is that concept too difficult for you to grasp? And a joke about it seems beyond your juvenile comprehension—and how interesting that you are so familiar with Ant-man’s girlfriend.

    Well, the truth emerges. Why don’t you run back to Ant-man’s blog and play there. You are acting like a nutter here.

    But Saddam only beheaded Iraqi women and strung up their heads for their kids to find. Guess he’s a hero in addamo’s eyes because hell, he only murdered his own people.

    It intrigues me that people like addamo (his illiteracy and idiocy aside)—who are not even Jewish—are obssessed with Israel and Jews but they probably couldn’t point to Darfur on a map if their lives depended on it.

  72. Re #68, Dave, someone pointed out that “fightdemback” is another blogname for that paragon of right and might, Darp Hau. 

    Darp is involved with “fightdemback" at http://www.fightdemback.org, so this may be true.

    But, as you may recall, Darp is especially brave in that he focuses exclusively on people without any real political power, but are certainly whack jobs.  On the far right of the political spectrum, which is “politically correct” to attack.

    Odd, Darp hasn’t posted on his blog for months.  Equally odd, Darp’s blog actually has friendly comments from.....Antony Loewenstein

    What a coincidence, given that fightdemback is being nasty towards someone who doesn’t like The Ant.....and for good reason.

    BTW, does Darp still shave his balls and vote?

    Who else would go through so much trouble to write such an impassioned defence of her?

    Somehow that doesn’t improve the overall hilarity level either.  But I’m pretty sure they finished off the bulk of the Christians and Animists, in southern Sudan (i.e. not in Darfur), last year.  In Darfur, western Sudan, I’m pretty sure it’s exclusively Muslim black Sudanese getting exterminated.

  82. Kidon,

    Erm, you’re slightly off the mark. I am, as everyone except yourself
    has correctly suggested - Mat Henderson-Hau (Darp). May I suggest that
    you are Daphne?

    So Daphs,

    So you’re claiming to be an academic now? What kind of an academic
    uses firearms as part of their job? You lecturing at The Farm or
    something? Will you now correct me here and say that when you call
    yourself an “academic”, you only mean it in the sense that you read
    books and have a degree? You aren’t actually employed in academia. I’m
    just getting confused that’s all. One minute you’re a gun-toting
    security service operative and the next you’re in the office down the
    corridor from Vincent. Which one is it? SHIT - maybe you’re both! Get
    Brian Spencer on the phone straight away and let him know the Mid-East
    Centre computer simulations are under threat from an inside job!

    I take your point that if you feel Ant & co are worth opposing,
    combatting etc - then go to town. I am merely questioning your
    methods, that’s all. I even suggested a few alternative ones and asked
    you for your take on them but you’ve chosen to ignore that. And here’s
    me trying to have a rational discussion with you and all. I’m just
    curious what you mean by this:

    And yeah, hell, I see it my duty to bring Loewenstein down—to tear
    him apart—in any way I can.

    Emphasis added. What is this “any way” you speak of?

    Flossie,

    I would again urge restraint, and stress that all such are watched
    closely by professionals who are better able to discern the daffy from
    the dangerous.

    I could not agree more. Note the quote I reprinted from Daphne above.

    Which Act, by the way, Darp is in clear breach of by virtue of his
    converting intent to action and his multiple threats to disclose
    information —otherwise anonymous—with the express purpose of harming
    those who have posted here.

    I’m confused? Who are you referring to? If you’re referring to Darrinh
    I hope you get a warm fuzzy feeling from defending a neo-Nazi. Also
    note that News Ltd gave him

    [url=http://www.fightdemback.org/2005/12/19/who-is-who-in-the-nazi-zoo/]double
    the serve:[/url]

    One active local member, who goes by the moniker “Proud to be
    an Infidel”, has been a regular contributor to international white
    supremacist organisation Stormfront.

    Via a series of electronic footprints, anti-Nazi campaigner Mat
    Henderson-Hau has linked “Infidel” to Engadine local Darrin Hodges.

    Hodges, who runs a website for a sex toy distributor, yesterday
    admitted to being a member of the racist Australia First Party but
    denied being a member of any white nationalist groups or a contributor
    to Stormfront.

    His alleged alter ego is not so shy.

    “Friends, today was an historic day, the day Australians stood up
    against state-imposed multiculturalism,” he wrote on the night of the
    Cronulla riots.

    Accompanying his posting is a series of photographs he took at
    Cronulla that day, including one of a T-shirt emblazoned with the
    words “wog free zone” and another of a sign offering free sausages to
    the crowd, with “no tabouli”.

  87. Kidon/Daphs.

    Yep, we work with a number of groups who monitor race-hate/anti-Semitic sentiment in the Muslim fundie world. We work with progressive Muslim groups as well.

    Some trivia; when FDB was forced offline by a DoS attack (the first of several) - we had two techies putting it back online. One in Melbourne, one in Sydney. Melbourne guy was a member of Betar, Sydney guy was the son Palestinian refugees from Lebanon. Both guys would only work together at first cos I yelled at them to do so but after a couple of weeks they were getting along. Not the best of mates, but they each had a new understanding of where the other side was coming from.

    It was a start.

    As regards Toben et al trying to jump on the bandwagon of ANYONE who, in their twisted opinion, is seen as giving it to Israel - it stinks. It is disturbing and Ant doesn’t like it. It’s the same with folk like Finkelstein and Chomsky. You can tell these prats to stick it until the cows come home

    Strange, I’m belittled for going after these assclowns (Toben, Adelaide institute etc). You guys say they’re a bunch of fringe nutters that who’s opinions don’t really matter yet when they act like THIS , all of sudden you guys think that their opinions DO matter because it suits the long-bow arguments you’re trying to make.

    You use an apostrophe when you’re unsure as to how a word is pluralized.

    No.
    If it’s a word, you just add a {swearwording} “s.” Simple, easy, neat, quick. 
    If it’s an abbreviation or an acronym or a number, or if it’s a possessive form of the noun, you use a {swearwording} “apostrophe-ess.” It’s not a default for uncertainty.  There should {swearwording} BE no uncertainty.
