Northern Territory Chief Minister Lia Finocchiaro lays a wreath at the 83rd commemoration of Darwin bombing by Japan in 1942
By Lyndesy Symonds
Feb 19 2025 was the 83rd anniversary of the bombing of Darwin 1942.
At least 250 people were killed on Feb 19 when the Japanese navy bombed the port of Darwin and initiated a campaign of Japanese bombing across the North.
And so there was a commemoration in Darwin of …. Larrakia country.
There was a big welcome with clapsticks, smoking gum leaves, dancing around in possum pelts by the look of it.
First there was the Welcome ceremony itself. Then eight speakers followed and all of them (except one and I am getting to that one) opened his address by acknowledging the Larrakia people as traditional owners of Darwin (Larrakia country), their culture and then paying respect to their elders past and present, etc.
Lia Finocchiaro, Chief Minister of the Northern Territory ditched the Aboriginal acknowledgement script and failed to pay her respects to Aboriginal ownership of country and elders past and present. Instead, she stated: “I would like to pay a special acknowledgement to veterans here today, to Territorians , to serving men and women, to the families and descendants of survivors , ladies and gentleman , but also importantly to our children.”
I think her acknowledgement to veterans and Territorians is inclusive. Aboriginal Territorians are certainly included in the CM’s respects. But acknowledgement of ownership not commemoration of a historic battle is what this is about; sovereignty, not inclusivity is the issue here. And wouldn’t you know it, the CM is now in deep doo-doos with the Aboriginal Industry, Labor for her failures in Marxist PC, cultural insensitivity and non-acknowledgement of indigenous claims.
The Feb 19 2025 was a commemoration of the Battle of Darwin which was fought by the Australians. When you know; you know. If members of the Larrakia people had distinguished themselves with battle honours, there is no way a line-up of self-flagellating Whites would have failed to give this not only a special mention but also its own commemoration. And probably a big plaque as well. They didn’t
The only reason why this Marxist PC has been permitted to take over an important Territorian and Australian military commemoration like the Feb 19 Battle of Darwin is because the Australians fought back against the Japanese attack. As the bombing campaign continued across the North, the Australians / Territorians mounted an effective defense. Allies came to their aid. The news may have been surpressed in Australia, but it went right around the world and in the end there was a coordinated response involving fighters, radar, and searchlights, scouts, rangers, spotters. And this response grew steadily to involve counterstrike from Australian bombers which started taking out the Japanese ships.
So the Australians won the Battle of Darwin. And the present Overseers of the Australians have stripped us of victory. If the Japanese had won, the Larrakia would have been assembled under guard on the beaches with the rest of the Territorians to cheer the landing of the occupation force if their lives had been spared.

Joe Bogan said backflipped after couple of weeks – are you sure Joe ? I found this apparently quite recently:-
Tony Maddox found guilty of breaching WA’s Aboriginal heritage laws after building bridge on Toodyay property.
Aboriginal culture these days revolves around money. Before the white fellas arrival Banks and money were not even a dream.
I reckon “Welcome To Country” is short for “You Are not a Native” and “You’ll Need a License and Pay a Fee if You Wanna Pass Through or Graze Here”.

WA Labor requires farmers to get permits from blackfellas before ploughing their paddocks
Farmers in Western Australia are furious about sweeping new cultural heritage laws that will require them to pay an Aboriginal consultant up to $160 an hour to obtain permits to do anything on their land that might disturb more than 50 centimetres of soil.

Welcome to a ‘conned’ Country – MADISON KING – ABORIGINAL ACADEMIC & AUTHOR
by SEAN BURKE – WELCOME to Country ceremonies are a money-making scam with no credible links to Indigenous culture or traditions, according to Aboriginal academic Madison King.
Ms King said these ceremonies, which have been forced upon Australians for years, were a “made-up” tradition.
This is the outcome when you let a lie go on for that long. People now think Welcome to Country is real, that this is what our culture is.
“Welcome to Country is a private matter, it’s a personal matter. Doing it for thousands of people at the same time – I reckon it’s BS,” she said on a YouTube post yesterday.
“Everything about it is wrong, but they try to make out that it’s normal. It’s not normal.
COLLECTIVE
“I never turn up to anything that has Welcome to Country. If it is one-on-one or family-to-family, I’ll do it. Otherwise I’m not interested in doing it as a collective.”
Ms King, who has a double degree in psychology, criminology and justice, said the traditional ceremony was a religious-style event acknowledging the spirits of the dead.
“This modern-day Welcome to Country, however, was made up by what we call the ‘people in the purple circle’, a bunch of know-all f#ck-alls,” she said.
“They are forcing their religion onto you.”
She said the “purple circle” had been dishonest to enrich themselves.
“This is the outcome when you let a lie go on for that long. People now think it’s real, that this is what our culture is,” Ms King said.
“It’s just entertainment. Look at all these people who go to boxing rings clapping sticks or onto football fields carrying on with didgeridoos.
“That’s not our culture. Didgeridoos only came from a small area in the Northern Territory.”
She said the wider Australian community needed to be aware of the con.
“It’s one thing to do a little entertainment, but put things into perspective – that’s not our culture.
PURPOSE
“We didn’t just go around and have corroborees and stuff whenever we felt like it. There was a purpose and meaning to it.
“What an insult to all the mob that still do corroborees as a tradition, while you mob make a mockery out of it for money purposes.”
She said every-day Aboriginals were disgusted by their money-grabbing city cousins.

Just BTW, folks, all the people of Aboriginal heritage in Australia should rightly be giving this Ernie Dingo inspired BS the finger just like every other Australian.
How bankrupt and lost must a culture be to have to cling to and encourage and promote complete and incontrovertibly certifiably fictional garbage to gain some relevance?
The AUTHOR of this “Welcome to Country” BS is still alive, folks, Ernie Dingo MADE THIS SHIT UP and he’s still walking around big as life to testify to that inconvenient reality.
I know, I know, truth hardly matters when you’ve got a thriving $50 BILLION Indigenous gravy train to manage and a bunch of foreign genocidal Globalist psychopaths and their myriad media and political organs looking to leverage the narrative to take over the joint and kill us all.
But you’d think all those Aboriginals – mostly half-caste or way less, folks, did you know that you only have to be 1/16 Aboriginal here in Australia to qualify for all the “First Nations” goodies? (Kind of helps to explain how the supposedly extinct Tasmanian Aboriginals are now a burgeoning community of Aryan blue-eyed blondes, just BTW) – would have a sufficient level of intelligence, dignity and self-respect to reject all this fabricated corporate-leveraged intentionally divisive nation-destroying cultural BS.
You’d think that red-blooded native Australians would resent being used as expendable political toys in the Globalist Game of Thrones.
Apparently not – follow the money.
Congratulations Northern Territory Chief Minister Lia Finocchiaro, a great interview with Paul Murray.
Good work on rejecting the stupid welcome to country, my old friends who spent their lifetime in the NT, never saw it in use anywhere, Ron Brown the last camel mounted police officer who travelled the remotest areas retired near me and said he had never seen a welcome to country amongst the wild tribes he visited.
A federal government in total contempt of the people — $450,000 wasted on Welcome to Country BS
A federal government in total contempt of the people, wasting $450,000 (SM 5/1) on a stupid a fantasy made up by Ernie Dingo and Richard Whalley in 1975, while people are dying because they cannot get an ambulance, people cannot afford medication and cancer treatment. While the distorted values of the government wasted $40m on a useless rejected referendum and other wasted billions on trying to change the effect of the earth’s rotation and the sun on our climate. We are ashamed and disgusted.
A friend when asked to present a welcome.
Said, ‘Acknowledgement of Country’:
As an Australian citizen I acknowledge and pay my respects to the British,
European and Asian elders past and present, who introduced civil society,
respect for law, respect for other people and prosperity to Australia.
And I got a standing ovation.
The next time I am in any forum where they “perform” a welcome to Country (which is not even a part of their own culture) ( designed to divide and conquer)
I will stand and proclaim –
” I do not need a welcome to my own Country” and turn my back on them.
I suggest everyone else should do the same, this utter nonsense would die a very quick death if this was done Aus wide in every stadium at every Footy match.
Hmm probably would only take a couple weeks I reckon.
Grow some balls people!
Stand up and free yourself.
