The Desecration of the Australian War Memorial

The Capture by Stealth of the AWM

Robert Hill, Quadrant, 20 July 2026

“A major feature on Frontier Wars will piss off the majority of Australia’s 600,000 veterans.” So warned Major General Greg Melick in 2022, when he was National President of the RSL and a member of the Australian War Memorial Council.

“The fundamental element is that the War Memorial was built in sacred recognition of wars that Australians fought as a nation, unified against an external foe. It is not to be a memorial for conflicts within Australia,” Barnaby Joyce said in 2022.

These statements expose the question the Memorial has never honestly answered: if a major Frontier Wars display would so profoundly disturb the veterans whose service the Memorial exists to honour, why has the policy been advanced without a clear public announcement, published legal advice, or a frank explanation of how it fits within the Australian War Memorial Act?

I am not a military man. I do not claim the authority of service. But my love for this country could not be greater. I know sacrilege when I see it.

The Australian War Memorial is the last place still standing largely outside the ideological capture of our national institutions. It is where politics is meant to fall silent before the dead; where the nation goes not to be lectured, corrected or re-educated, but to remember those who served and those who died.

Yet we are living inside a national fog of exaggeration and fabrication surrounding the so-called Frontier Wars. Claims unsupported by military reality are forced upon us as settled truth, even where no war existed.

The more immediate question is how this contested project became institutional policy. It was not advanced by open argument, but by stealth: through an ideological sequence and in a vacuum of justification. No clear public mandate was sought. No legal reasoning was published. No serious explanation was offered to veterans or the wider public as to why a contested account of colonial violence belongs within the statutory war memorial.

Auntie Lisa’s first Welcome to Country

Lisa Jane Spencer has suffered a monumental mob attack since her recent satire on Aboriginal identification. Fortunately, she hasn’t caved in. Indeed, she’s determined to push on, as the reel below demonstrates.

I commented previously that her parody was based on accurate evidence. The rules for Aboriginal identification are so loose as to require a mere feeling of being Aboriginal. Check the rules if you don’t believe me.

White-Aboriginals

I’ve been pointing out for years that you cannot distinguish many people who claim to be Aboriginal from people with British ancestry. You even have people like lily-white Bruce Pascoe, who are proven to have not a jot of Aboriginal in them, prancing around in souvenir-shop fur and waving a K-mart spear. It would be a joke if there weren’t the serious question of power acquisition involved. These white-Aboriginals obviously have grown up and been educated in normal white Australian society. They’ve been given the playbook of Aboriginal agitation, which they mindlessly reel off at the slightest provocation.

Really, are they surprised at someone parodying their fakery?

It’s a total farce – a big con

Most of those calling themselves, or being called, Indigenous, First Nations (the preferred term because of its connotations), and less often Aboriginal, have demonstrably had the same upbringing and education in the same social environment as most Australians.

Their behaviour, speech and educational level give them away as belonging to the mass of the Australian population with the same social gradations. There are poor, white, uneducated people, as there are poor, uneducated people with Aboriginal ancestry, a great many of them indistinguishable in appearance from Australians with British and European backgrounds.

This is less a case of race relations than it is of the usurpation of power by one particular body, party, club – call it what you will – in Australia. And it’s hurried along at great speed by the Marxists in the ABC and SBS, the great apologists for all things woke. The ABC and SBS are on the frontline, promoting the First Nations coup, which aims to reshape Australia according to their concocted Aboriginal culture and history.

$1.48 million for fishing in the very best modern diving equipment? Nice work if you can get it – as the song goes.

Tell Pauline Hanson you’ll vote for One Nation if she and her party undertake to get rid of farces like this.

Welcome to Country is an insult

Excellent video. It makes all the right points about Welcome to Country, land rights, invasion, and all the nonsensical claims about Australia’s history by reinvented White-Aboriginals. What do people expect when a person states, as an introduction to Anzac Day, that most of the people listening are not legitimate on the land they’re standing on?

Lidia Thorpe – a severe case of delusion

There are dozens of videos of white Aboriginal Lidia Thorpe spewing her hatred of white people and giving her nonsensical version of Australian history. And the woke class just lets it pass by without a word – particularly the super-woke, government-funded SBS. Imagine if a man stood up in parliament and referred to Aboriginals as filth. That man would be lucky to escape with his life. Below are three videos that provide a sample of Thorpe’s disturbed mind.

Pauline Hanson will garner an enormous number of votes if she undertakes to shut down the Aboriginal industry, thus releasing billions of dollars for the benefit of all Australians, and not just a small minority, mostly made up of fakes.
