The 'Prince' of Serial Pests of Posts.

You might not know him by name but you most likely would have come across Peter Hore interrupting your favourite sporting or celebrity event. Known as a serial pest his “decorated list of achievements” includes among others: interrupting the funeral of rock singer Michael Hutchence, ripping the goal net during Australia's World Cup soccer qualifier against Iran in Melbourne and invading the floor in the South Australian parliament. Hore announced his retirement after running onto the Olympic course waving a didgeridoo during the men's marathon at the Sydney Olympics.

However, like Ronald Reagan’s funeral, he will not go away and earlier this year was charged with assisting asylum seekers escape from the Woomera detention centre. He seems to be protesting about something and in a rare television interview last year he unintelligibly explained as much. About what? We do not know and neither does he.

Why have I wasted two paragraphs on this social pest? My criticism of Mohammed Salem stirred some feedback which for the most part, not surprisingly, was in agreement; except for one response, or seemingly so. ‘Abu Abdullah Abdullah ibn Abu Abdullah’ ironically said I am an “anonymous coward”, for “slandering a brother in Islam who has done more for Islam and the Muslims in Australia” than I have. He further espouses the achievements and virtues of Salem and defends him to the hilt, even giving his own ridiculous theory on the significance of the naked man on Salem’s album cover. One would almost be forgiven for thinking that it was either a friend or fan of the burly man.

Two paragraphs later in his ‘essay’ he pretty much does an about face and launches a vitriolic attack on Salem while trying to pass the buck. He even went as far as to blantantly lie and claims he is quoting me, "effeminate, whimpering poof"- which, ofcourse I never said. He interspersed his contradictory commentary with some, admittedly, brilliant moments of humour, “one of the worst singers to ever appear in the crevices of the internet MP3 scene” he writes; and this ripper, “Who the hell died and made you Ronald Reagan, you moralising, socially-conservative nitwith?”

Reading this one might think it is obviously the work of a clever man with a very witty sense of humour. Unfortunately this isn’t so because I am familiar with this internet posting pest. How? I have in the past come across many similar rants and spiel on Islamic oriented websites. The bemoaning of the Saudi funded “double vowelled” movement seeping through the Australian Islamic society has become his trademark dribble and therefore his writing style is conspicuous by it’s repetitiveness. Ironically, according to my contacts in Kingdom of Saudia Arabia, this Wahabi-Sufi-Ikhwani-Tablighi manhaj cross-dresser (see fotnote)was a guest of the Saudi regime a couple of years back even going as far as claiming, in a ruling regime funded newspaper, that “King Fahd is the undisputable Commander of the Faithful, whose presence and authorative persona is reminicent of the great Hakim (Fatamid Shia ruler of Egypt)….(and his half-brother) Crown Prince Abdullah is his trusty aide who is willing to sacrifice himself for the cause of the Islamic world in the same mold as Hakim’s trusted vizier- Darazi.” (Darazi claimed that Hakim was the incarnate of God who fled to the area of Lebanon and founded the Druze sect.) This is just an example of the confused mental state of this pathetic internet version of Peter Hore. The net is littered with his absurd, rubbish, nonsensical, but admitedly amusing protests and commentary-but I will not give him the satisfaction of mentioning his name or website.

(Footnote: I hope I am not misunderstood here. I am not making fun of any group. I am implying that the Serial Post Pest can’t make up his mind what he is.)
