Mark Binskin & Duncan Lewis have forsaken tried,tested and evolving ADF PSYOP , HUMINT capabilities for the likes of Anne Aly, Greg Barton ,Mona Shindy etc

by Ganesh Sahathevan 



When this is over, it will be asked what was different about this operation from others. One of those things will be that we conducted information operations. General Peter Cosgrove, AC, MC


While the Chief Of Defence Forces Air Marshall  Mark Binskin looks to Captain Mona Shindy for wisdom in dealing with jihadis ,and ASIO chief Major General (Ret) Duncan Lewis spouts the words "terrorism experts" Anne Aly and Greg Barton, both men seem to have dismissed the Australian Defence Forces tried, tested and evolving psychological operations (PSYOP) and Human Intelligence (HUMINT) capabilities.

As General Sir Peter Cosgrove suggests, these capabilities have been tried and tested successfully, in at least  the Timor conflict.

Copied and pasted here is some literature on the ADF's PSYOP and HUMINT capabilities.

Psychological Operations (PSYOPS) within the AustralianIntelligence Corps: Should it Stay or Should it Go? by Warrant Officer Class Two Dallas Sharp

Australian Defence Force classified propaganda doctrine: Information Operations Planning Manual, 20 Jun 2001 (see also  https://file.wikileaks.org/file/aus-io-panning-manual-2001.pdf)

While the last example is of British operations in Malaya, Australian Army ,Air Force and Navy were actively involved.

If Damien Tudehope's COVID hotel quarantine fee statements are correct, SLHD revenue reported in financial statements signed by former CEO Teresa Anderson is overstated, and false

Image
 by Ganesh Sahathevan                     Tough talking Damien Tudehope may not have the power to impose th.  bulk of his quarantine fee, if any Readers will recall that former NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller (now a PwC partner) said in his notice that Revenue NSW " will be charging a mandatory quarantine fee". Readers will also recall that the rormer NSW Minister For Financial Services, Damien Tudehope insisted that the quarantine fees charged by Sydney Local Health District, pursuant to the NSW Health Services Act include charges for police security. However, there is nothing  in the SLHD's financial statements for the relevant periods (see links below) to reflect any payment from the COVID quarantine fee revenue being made over to NSW Police. SLHD's revenue must then have been overstated, by the CEO concerned Teresa Anderson.  SLHD Financial Statements https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/annualreport/Publicat...

Strata managers' aversion to contact with tenants can leave strata managers exposed to personal liability

 by Ganesh Sahathevan      Advice for living in, or buying into, a strata community Strata managers are employed to manage strata schemes which are often home to renters as well as owners.

Having said that, tenants do actually have a legal right to a great many things, including being informed (and presumably make representations) when strata schemes consider re-development. Strata managers who seek to stand in place of strata committees  are even more e...
