i know that violent ultranationalists accuse left-wing people of being cowards, but not being able to come out and say "I don't believe Muslims are people because I'm a legit stormtrooper" or something is pretty funny

There's an investigation into a pilot who was flying around VIPS and politicians unlicensed, and his idea of competition was destroying other pilots planes (and/or possibly insurance fraud). More here (possibly paywalled)

quote:

His charges stretched back to July 2014, when he allegedly attacked an aircraft engineer in Charters Towers, leaving him with "permanent and life-changing head injuries", and raised serious questions about aircraft security at Mount Isa and Charters Towers airports.

Police alleged Mr Hoch targeted two private air charter operations, but not major commercial carriers, at Mount Isa and Charters Towers.

Aviation experts found "abrasive material" applied directly into engines caused the "catastrophic engine failure" and the forced landing of two planes, police alleged.

Another two suffered engine failures identified before they took off.

The incidents sparked a safety review at Mount Isa Airport, which police said resulted in new measures put in place and no further aircrafts being damaged.

Police also alleged fraudulent insurance claims, flying without a licence, dangerous operation of aircraft and "numerous" safety breaches, mostly at Mount Isa and Charters Towers.

Police said a "significant witness had come forward in relation to the aircraft damage but appealed for anyone else who knew anything to get in touch.

Mr Hoch's 342 charges include numerous counts of endangering the safety of a person in a vehicle with intent, dangerous operation of a vehicle, flying aircraft without a licence, fraud offences, and offences in relation to aircraft.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Eighty-two-year-old conservative Christian MP the Reverend Fred Nile has been called many things in his time in public life, but last week was the first time he was deemed a threat to international security.

Mr Nile MLC, the longest-serving member of the NSW Parliament, says both he and his wife, Silvana Nero, were last week denied entry to the United States because they were told they presented an unspecified security risk.
